[FE7/8] More than 5 Supports Fix

This patch removes the 5 support limit and replaces it with an "only one A Support" limit.
UPDATED
Additionally, there is a limit of 6 support partners at a time (can be changed/removed by changing the byte at $D/E900F8), to prevent display glitches caused by 7 or more supports.

Links:
FE7 (writes data to $D90080 - $D90123):

FE8 (writes data to $E90080 - $E90123):
https://www.dropbox.com/s/qhyh9abucmvee7g/FE8_MaxSupportFix.ups?dl=0

With well over 5 supports each, but no A supports:

With Eirika/Ephraim A, Eirika cannot get a second A support:

But she can get a B support:

There is a limit of 6 support partners at a time, though for FE7 you may want to change it to 5 (byte at $D900F8):
27f3b042ad33e0b2178014746a1fc1d66a1b043c

Example: Ephraim with 5 supports can get a 6th with either Eirika or L'arachel:

However once he supports Eirika he can no longer support L'arachel:

Updated the patch to only allow 6 support partners at a time, fixing graphical glitches and still allowing up to 10 potential partners. Also streamlined it so it actually takes up less space than before.

If you already have the patch installed, paste this hex:
FE8 - paste to $E90080

More than one A support is easy enough, if you don't mind messing up paired endings. The second thing is a bit harder and I'm not keen on doing it without good reason.

Is there maybe a way to remove the addition of a paired ending between characters? If so, one could just give each character a single paired ending and that issue would be resolved!

This is a very good patch, thank you, good for the supports.

A question though, would you be able to make the patch work on already patched/hacked roms?

Because it works perfect on the clean rom but I tried it on BrightVega's FE8 master version hack but it can't be done it seems.

First, make a copy of your rom.

Then apply the support patch using NUPS.

In the patched rom, copy $E90080-123 (FE8) / $D90080-123 (FE7), or copy the hex I posted.

Paste it to a free space at an address ending in 0, 4, 8, or C.

Using the search and replace function, replace the pointer to $D/E90081 with a pointer to your new location + 1.

Finally go back to your original rom, copy whatever you have at $E/D90080-123, and paste it into the same place in the patched rom.

I really don't know how this things works but ended up downloading Event assembler which I think is what required to patch the game and after some playing with it I successfully patched my us version of FE8 but in the game itself I can't have supports at all, no matter how long I put two characters near each other. So I checked the same savestats with the clean version of the game and there the supports works normal. so am I doing something wrong? can someone give me a link with proper guide to the patching process?

I absolutely love this fix, but I seem to have found a problem: My Ross got from 4 to 6 Supports in one Battle and now his Support page says "Remaining x --" and he can't get additional support conversations. My Amelia got to exactly 5 Supports and is now stuck as if the fix wasn't applied. (Green highlighted and remaining 0). Meanwhile Lute has 7 supports (from 4 to 7 in one Battle) and can still get conversations and has 254 remaining.

So it seems like you for some reason have to go from 4 to seven supports in one battle in order for the person to not get stucked.

Thank you so much for this, it’s exactly what I’ve been looking for.

Oh, by the way, you can get these patches installed straight from FEBuilder, (in case you didn't already know, sorry if you already do) and for when you need to check who made which patch, going into the patch menu and searching up ! should show you all of your installed patches.

Sorry if you already knew all of that, though!
