Does anyone have any useful memory addresses for this game? I'm mainly looking for x/y position/subpixelposition and x/y speed/subpixel speed. Please post if you have them :)
--ff2macro.lua
function frameadvance(frames)
for i = 0, frames or 1 do
joypad.set(1, joy)
FCEU.frameadvance()
joy = {}
end
end
function press(button, frames)
joy[button] = true
frameadvance(30)
end
joy = {}
FCEU.speedmode("maximum")
for loop = 1, 100 do
press("down")
press("down")
press("A")
frameadvance(20)
press("A")
press("A")
frameadvance(55)
press("B")
end
FCEU.speedmode("normal")
I'm trying to help a friend play FF2 and in doing so, make a movie/macro that automatically makes the character input "a, a, b," so as to attack and cancel in battle.
--ff2grind.lua
function frameadvance(frames)
for i = 0, frames or 1 do
joypad.set(1, joy1)
FCEU.frameadvance()
joy1.A = nil
joy1.B = nil
end
end
joy1 = {}
for loops = 1, 100 do
FCEU.speedmode("maximum")
joy1.A = true
frameadvance(8)
joy1.A = true
frameadvance(42)
joy1.B = true
frameadvance(45)
FCEU.speedmode("normal")
endHmm... I almost feel dumb for having posted it in the first place. I know it's been mentioned so many times already. Just sometimes it feels more plausible than other times. Suppose we hardcode the overworld route into the bot, an exhaustive search for dungeons would be feasible, wouldn't it?
mystate = file.io("./states/test1.fca", "r")
savedata = mystate.read("all")
customstate = file.io("./states/romname.fc0", "w")
customstate.write(savedata)Feel free to give details. This is already my second version of this game and as I didn't receive any real comments on improvements (like "on frame xx, you jump too early/too high/whatever"), I has hoping to get some real answers here. I know that this is not the right place to post WIPs, yet maybe this run was already optimal enough to be published (which is for the judges to decide, not me).
I don't believe this would be as entertaining from a TAS perspective, but I'm very interested to hear other people's opinions.
MAN am I glad to have that music out of my life, though
From what I can tell of that lua script, it seems you're checking for 0, and only 0. From my tests, both 0 and 1 gets me the flashing meat. It's not a 1/256 chance from those eels, but a 2/256 chance. Let me know if I misread something, since I'm not familiar with lua.
I finally beat Chapter 1 with that final piece of RNG you gave me. It became many times easier when I got an idea on roughly what frame I can expect good food.
7E00DE goes up or down by some currently unknown factor. 7E00DF goes up if 7E00DE is odd, that is, bit 0x01 is set; Else, it goes down.
