FE 4 Chapitre 5 rescue "B"

I was stuck on Chapter 5 of Fire Emblem: Genealogy of the Holy War trying to save Byron.

He kept dying on enemy phase (round 2) and I was literally 1 tile away from reaching him. My save was stuck on round 2 impossible to reset de chapter (some user says that you won't have the sacred weapon if byron die so i had to do something else to save him

Since I was playing on a patched English ROM with Snes9x, most cheat codes online either didn’t work or caused weird behavior.

After using Cheat Search, I found Byron’s HP address:

7E332F

Byron had 20 HP initially

after taking damage he dropped to 7 HP

changing the value at 7E332F successfully modified his HP in real time

What I personally did:

I restored him back to 20 HP / 20 HP

I avoided going above the normal cap to reduce the risk of bugs/crashes

Quick method (Snes9x):

Open Cheats → Search for New Cheats

Search Byron’s current HP value

Let him take damage

Search the new HP value

Modify address 7E332F

Hopefully this helps future players stuck on the infamous Chapter 5 Byron rescue.

Here tuto for changing adresse if my post is not enough:
