What is it? | |2. Why? | |3. IPS Patching | |4. Contact | \________________| __________________________________________________________________________________________ |Section 1: What is it? \ |------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| |This is an enhancement of RPGe's translation of Final Fantasy V for the SNES. When RPGe | |translated it they altered item names to be more like Final Fantasy III US, I figure it | |was to help people more familiar with Final Fantasy III US easier, but it doesn't make for| |an acurate translation. This fixes item, equipment, magic, monster, job, and ability names| |plus it also removes the over use of il, ll, li, it, tt, ti, ect. characters (They are | |still used where needed). Note no dialouge was changed, except for a few miss-matched | |names dialouge was fine (I may release a patch that fixes the few places where the wrong | |person's name is used). | \__________________________________________________________________________________________| __________________________________________________________________________________________ |Section 2: Why? \ |------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| |When I first got into emulation I played this translation, Final Fantasy V had already | |been released here in the states in Final Fantasy Anthology, and I thought the names of | |stuff sucked (Not the actual translation though) Later I got an enhacement patch, but it | |sucked too. I have fixed that, along with the font and item icons RPGe changed for no good| |reason. | \__________________________________________________________________________________________| __________________________________________________________________________________________ |Section 3: IPS Patching \ |------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| |First you need a FF5 Rom (E-mail if you want to know where to get one, I know it's hard to| |find 'em.) and a good SNES emulator (http://www.zsnes.com). Once you have that try to run | |FF5 in ZSNES and see if the checksum is good or OK (If it's not get a new Rom) if it's | |good go to Zophar's Domain (http://www.zophar.net) and download a program called SNES-Tool| |(I suggest you keep a copy of this in the directory of every Rom you own). Make a copy of | |your Rom and load SNES-Tool, select use IPS, then select ff5enhance.ips and patch it onto | |the copy of you FF5 Rom. (Note: This patch should work on both non-translated and | |translated FF5 Roms but hasen't been tested on translated) | \__________________________________________________________________________________________| __________________________________________________________________________________________ |Section 4: Contact \ |------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| |You may contact me by the following methods: | |E-mail: dkk312@earthlink.net | |AIM: DarkKntKain (I'm rarely on) | |(Note: If you want to send me a bug you found with this patch please send a screenshot of | |it as well) | \__________________________________________________________________________________________|
