Alright I got it working. Is there any way to remove the 'hold cancel to dash' thing? With the sprint shoes equipped it's just obscenely fast, and i felt like part of the challenge was fighting through areas and gaining experience.

I've been playing through with the beta version of this hack for a while now with zero problems but on the third Ultros fight when Relm joins your party her 'Sketch' ability seems to crash the game whenever it's used. I tried using a patch that's supposed to fix that to no avail. I've tried a number of things to try and keep the GBA translation and I don't think I'm gonna be able to fix it by any means.

I did check out the FF6 - Stand Guard version, and I wasn't big on the translation, or the increase in difficulty (I'm a newbie to jrpgs in general). I wanted to have the same names of things that everyone else who played the US version knew (a la Celes instead of Celise, Espers instead of Eidolons) but I'm not sure if I have much of choice anymore, as I really don't like Woolsey's translation. I've applied the Stand Guard patch to a copy of the original US version, and yet when I try to start it up I get a black screen and the game doesn't play. Is there something more I need to do to make Stand Guard work?

This is the first time I've played through the game, or any Final Fantasy for that matter, and I would prefer a version of the game that is closest to what the original game was designed to be like. That's why this project intrigued me so much. From what I've seen of the GBA translation of this game that's definitely the version I want to play through. I found his Beta 1 patch by digging through this thread, and I'm playing through that version now and enjoying it, but it's not perfect. It has a bug in it where if I use the 'ARRANGE' command in the Items menu it drops all my potions and phoenix downs, apparantly it's because the items were re-classified (or something) as 'RD LAN' which the game doesn't recognize and deletes. It's not a deal breaker, but it's obnoxious.

I've e-mailed him and sent him a PM on the off chance he notices at all.

I apologize for resurrecting this thread, but the prospect of this getting finished is too good to ignore. Has Changeling been heard from since he last posted here? Does anyone have the more complete version of this, since all the download links are long dead?
