Animations (Tab)

The values listed for entries in this tab in FFTPatcher refer to the actual character sprite's movements when using any Ability as well as the movements of that character's sprite while playing the Effect (List here: Ability_and_Spell_Animations ) of the associated Ability as set in FFTPatcher on the Abilities tab.

To clarify, an Animation would be the casting pose of a Wizard casting Fire and the Effect would be the visual representation of the Fire spell when it resolves. Another example would be the twirling-in-place dance of a Dancer while in Performing status as well as the arm-raised pose while the Dance's Effect resolved on screen.

Thus, the wrong Animation data is far more likely to cause (minor) glitches in sprites than the wrong Effect. This is most easily seen in a human unit trying to use most Monster Abilites, which is something that a Blue Mage class would have to account for if you wanted to add such.

List of All Ability Animations

For each ability there is a set of 3 hex values that manage the sprite's animations before the Effect is played. This animation persists during Charging/Performing status.
