Final Fantasy III: Tritoch Animation Fix is a modification for the Super Nintendo that addresses a graphical issue with the summon animation of the character Tritoch. The fix corrects missing frame data, specifically a byte pair that defines the position and graphical block for Tritoch's tail. Released by bydoless on October 27, 2016, this patch includes versions for both headered and headerless ROMs of the game.
Tritoch tail is missing a small piece when calling his summon. This is because its frame data ($D1C645-$D1C67A in FF3us) is missing a byte pair. The first byte of the pair is a X,Y position (xxxxyyyy) of the block in 16 pixels intervals. The second byte determines the block taken from the monster graphic (n) as well as whether it's flipped horizontally (h) and/or vertically (v). Format of second byte is vhnnnnnn.
Since the first two couples (10 01 and 20 02) reference blocks in the mold containing no graphics at all, we can use one of those to insert the missing couple 35 07.
