Seiken Densetsu 3 / Trials of Mana -- Item Shop Change
v1.5

by hmsong
================================================================================

The Item Shop in the game felt lacking, especially in the beginning (that's
where you need the most!).  And the items in the Byzel Black Market were way too
overpowered.  And, the normal seeds needed more love.  So, this patch changes
numerous items available in the shops.

Hopefully, none of the new shop items will end up screwing up any events (will
Dreamsee Herb screw up the events in the beginning of the game for certain
characters?).  If any of you notice something, then please PM me, so I can fix
it.

Some notes:
- All semi-rare seeds are available in Byzel, including Magic Seed.  That ought
  to make money more meaningful, especially by the end of the game.
- The price for most sold items increased (so that they can be abused less, at
  least in the beginning).  On the other hand, Shell Hunters drop more money.
- Magic Walnut's recovery rate increased from 20 MP to 25 MP.
- Shuriken (item) can now multi-target.
- Most seeds do different things (some uses the unused animations):
  - Item Seed:		Uses Detect on one enemy (sees the target's HP), but has
			glitches -- use at your own risk -- hopefully, someone
			somewhere will release a patch that fixes this, or teach
			me how).
  - Mystery Seed:	Uses AntiMagic on one/all allies (Flash animation).
  - Flying Item Seed:	Causes 1/3 Current HP damage (higher damage on Jinn Day)
			on one/all enemies (Feather Blizzard animation).
  - Magic Seed:		Causes Snowman SE on all enemies (Tidal Wave animation).
			Caution: Can be reflected.
  - ??? Seed:		Does 999 damage to an equal/underleveled Undead enemy
			(Revive animation).
  - Weapon/Armor Seed:	Does a powerful STR-based attack on one/all enemies
			(100 Tentacles animation).
- Switched the icon colors for Mysterious Seed and Magic Seed, since Magic Seed
  uses the animation of water.
- Stardust Herb's animation changed from Tinkle Rain to Flash.
- Changed few minor things in Mintos and Diorre armor shops.

Applying Notes:

- This is specifically for No Header ROM.  If you only have a Headered ROM, then
  you can use TUSH (https://www.romhacking.net/utilities/608/) to remove the
  header.
- Compatible with the English NCorlett-translation patch.  But again, you need a
  Unheadered ROM.  If you are using the translation patch from Romhacking.net,
  then you need to apply the translation to a Headered ROM first, then use TUSH
  to remove the header.  And then you can apply my patches.
- Compatible with the new Trials of Mana ROM, released in 2019.  But again, you
  need a Unheadered ROM.



Change Logs:

1.5
 - Changed the animation and/or effects of some seed items.
 - Switched the icon colors for Mysterious Seed and Magic Seed, since Magic Seed
   uses the animation of water.

1.4
 - Changed the animation and/or effects of some seed items.
 - Changed few minor things in Mintos and Diorre armor shops.

1.3
 - Changed the animation and effects of most seed items.
 - Shell Hunter now drops a lot more Money (still drops no Experience).

1.2
 - Changed back the effect of Angel's Grail (400 HP --> 999 HP).  Instead, the
   price increased to 200 Luc.
 - Changed the animation for Stardust Herb and Magic Seed.

1.1
 - Changed numerous effects of various items (see above).
 - Changed the prices of some items, but...
 - Technically enables you to have infinite money, at least from the mathmatical
   point of view (figure out the method yourself -- it shouldn't be that hard).
   Think of this as a reward for being able to do math.  This is intended to be
   somewhat useful only up to Full Metal Hugger (which is where you need the
   money).  After that, it would be faster to kill weak monsters to build money.
   - This is actually how some real merchants make money -- when they have
     sufficient capital, they invest on products, then they improve them, then
     they sell them for higher price.

1.0
 - Initial release.



There are other hacks for Seiken Densetsu 3 that you should check out:

Sin of Mana
- http://ngplus.net/index.php?/files/file/28-seiken-densetsu-3-sin-of-mana/
- This changes the contents of the game in many ways, such as stat changes,
  equipment changes, class balance, difficulty, boss behaviors, running in
  battles, MP regeneration, dungeon format, and tons of bug fixes.  It's a
  completely new game though, since so much has changed from the original game
  (especially character spells).
- There is also a forum (google "Sin of Mana forum"), where you can ask the
  creator (praetarius5018) numerous questions.  He is very helpful, and even
  helps you to create your own hack.  He certainly helped me, for most of my
  hacks.
- Sin of Mana is NOT compatible with the new Trials of Mana.
- Sin of Mana is NOT compatible with hmsong's patches.
