circleseverywhere Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 (edited) This patch removes the 5 support limit and replaces it with an "only one A Support" limit.UPDATEDAdditionally, 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):https://www.dropbox.com/s/yl2i50h9yx6wbtp/FE7_MaxSupportFix.ups?dl=0FE8 (writes data to $E90080 - $E90123):https://www.dropbox.com/s/qhyh9abucmvee7g/FE8_MaxSupportFix.ups?dl=0With 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):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: Edited January 18, 2016 by circleseverywhere Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrightVega Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 This deserves a lot more attention to be honest as it creates many new opportunities and offers great flexibility. It would be fun to see the final battle stats of Lv1 Eirika with all these supports XD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

circleseverywhere Posted January 18, 2016 Author Share Posted January 18, 2016 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 00 B5 00 F0 10 F8 01 28 0A D0 28 1C 31 1C 23 4B 00 F0 05 F8 00 F0 07 F8 01 28 01 D0 08 BC 18 47 08 BC 1F 4B 18 47 F0 B5 A8 42 02 D0 6C 40 65 40 6C 40 2F 1C 26 68 36 79 17 4C 00 F0 2A F8 05 1C 00 24 00 23 3A 68 D2 6A 38 1C 21 1C 10 B4 11 4C 00 F0 1F F8 10 BC 11 5D B1 42 01 D1 06 1C 36 04 03 28 00 D1 10 33 00 28 00 D0 01 33 01 34 AC 42 EA DB 01 20 0F 24 1C 40 06 2C 01 DB 00 2E 05 D0 10 2B 02 DB 36 0C 02 2E 00 D0 00 20 F0 BC 02 BC 08 47 20 47 3D 82 02 08 C9 81 02 08 F5 81 02 08 6F 83 02 08 FE7 - paste to $D90080 00 B5 00 F0 10 F8 01 28 0A D0 28 1C 31 1C 23 4B 00 F0 05 F8 00 F0 07 F8 01 28 01 D0 08 BC 18 47 08 BC 1F 4B 18 47 F0 B5 A8 42 02 D0 6C 40 65 40 6C 40 2F 1C 26 68 36 79 17 4C 00 F0 2A F8 05 1C 00 24 00 23 3A 68 D2 6A 38 1C 21 1C 10 B4 11 4C 00 F0 1F F8 10 BC 11 5D B1 42 01 D1 06 1C 36 04 03 28 00 D1 10 33 00 28 00 D0 01 33 01 34 AC 42 EA DB 01 20 0F 24 1C 40 06 2C 01 DB 00 2E 05 D0 10 2B 02 DB 36 0C 02 2E 00 D0 00 20 F0 BC 02 BC 08 47 20 47 95 66 02 08 29 66 02 08 4D 66 02 08 D7 67 02 08 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loopulk Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 Is there a way to change it so one can have more than one A support? Or maybe is there a way to make it so characters X and Y can only get a C support and a B support?Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
circleseverywhere Posted February 5, 2016 Author Share Posted February 5, 2016 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
circleseverywhere Posted February 7, 2016 Author Share Posted February 7, 2016 Should be doable in Nightmare. Apply the patch, then change D/E900FB from DB to E0 to allow multiple A supports. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trestkon Posted February 13, 2016 Share Posted February 13, 2016 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
circleseverywhere Posted February 14, 2016 Author Share Posted February 14, 2016 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trestkon Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 Alright thanks ^^ I'll try that out but would it work as well if I would just ignore the patching error and force patch it even if its invalid, or would that make no difference either?

circleseverywhere Posted February 16, 2016 Author Share Posted February 16, 2016 It will overwrite whatever is at e90080/d90080. In a clean rom this is free space, in an edited rom it may or may not be free. If you know it's free then go ahead and ignore the warning.

xatzimi Posted June 11, 2016 Share Posted June 11, 2016 This looks awesome! Could you include a version for Binding Blade, hopefully? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
avbitran Posted June 18, 2017 Share Posted June 18, 2017 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?

natade13 Posted November 25, 2017 Share Posted November 25, 2017 I'm afraid the download link for the FE8 version of the patch doesn't work anymore, if its possible to fix that... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
itsjustgoldman Posted December 22, 2017 Share Posted December 22, 2017 How do I actually apply the patch to the rom? Do I need to use HxD or another program? I'm 100% new to hacking/patching roms Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tamamo Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 It seems that units who have 0 supports remaining even without an A support can't support anymore units. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allaine Posted October 27, 2020 Share Posted October 27, 2020 (edited) 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.

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! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
