Final Fantasy III: Unhardcoded Tintinabar

Final Fantasy III: Unhardcoded Tintinabar is a patch for the Super Nintendo game that modifies the Tintinabar item, previously limited to a single usage. This patch allows the Tintinabar's healing effects to apply to either one party member or the entire party, providing greater flexibility in gameplay. The patch is compatible with multiple versions of the game and offers various file options for players.

The Tintinabar in all its crappiness is exclusive to a single item, number 229. This patch unhardcodes the Tintinabar to no longer be exclusive to a specific item.

You have a choice of keeping it to a single party member, or to go with what the data slightly suggests and make it a party-wide effect.

Urgency: Low. It depends entirely if you wish to have an item other than the
Tintinabar to have a walking healing ability, but it can also help if you change
the Tintinabar to do something else entirely.

Description:

The Tintinabar in all its crappiness is exclusive to a single item, number 229.

What this patch does:

Unhardcodes the Tintinabar to no longer be exclusive to a specific item.

You have a choice of keeping it to a single party member, or to go with what
the data slightly suggests and make it a party-wide effect.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

How to use:

In either case, open up FF3usME and head to the item editor.

Solo: The lone question mark in special 3 is the bit the Tintinabar now uses.
Set that bit and the Tintinabar is in effect for that item.

Party: The 3-question mark selection in the item effects is the bit the
Tintinabar uses. The Tintinabar already has this set by default.
