■This is a hacked ROM of the Super Famicom version of FINAL FANTASV (FF5).
Secondary distribution is prohibited.
This is not suitable for people who cannot tolerate alterations to the original work or ROM hacks.
■Contents
The focus is on reorganizing the monsters. You can fight bosses from the FF series, such as the Four Fiends of Golbez, as well as monsters from other games. New monsters replace existing ones, so some monsters may no longer be available.
It’s more difficult than the original.
The main storyline remains largely unchanged.
■ Transferring save data from previous versions
Save data from version 1.20 and later can be transferred. Transferring is possible by renaming the save file (with the .srm extension).
However, please note the following points if you are using a version prior to Ver. 1.28.
(1) The monster being captured may change when you use the “Capture” command.
(2) If there is a Paladin character in the party, it will be necessary to change their job to Paladin again due to the command position change.
■ System changes
The following specifications have been changed using a patch created by a craftsman.
The “Steal” ability allows you to continue stealing until you have stolen all three types of items: those with a high probability of being stolen, those with a low probability of being stolen, and those that are dropped with a certain probability. In short, it reduces the effort required to get a return when aiming for rare items (of course, you cannot steal items if the monster does not possess them).
The “Sort” function is more powerful than the original, allowing you to organize items by the icon next to each item name. Also, the first four rows of items in your inventory will not move when you use “Sort.” It’s a good idea to place frequently used weapons and items here.
When you select “Strongest” on the equipment screen, so-called cursed equipment will not be selected.
■ About the character’s initial level
The goblins you fight immediately after starting the game will have zero experience points, and Faris’s initial level will be 1.
■ How to apply the patch
*Please remember to back up your data before applying the patch.
*Do not patch this version on top of the previous version. Always patch the original ROM.

■Acknowledgments
I received many opinions, ideas, technical assistance, and words of encouragement on blogs, message boards, and binary threads.
Furthermore, Waiwai-san created a monster image viewing and modification support tool for YY_CHR, which allowed me to work more efficiently.
Min and Inu provided me with some very useful patches.
I would like to take this opportunity to express my gratitude. Thank you so much.
■Area used
The ROM has been expanded to 3MB, and monster images have been moved to $200,000, and monster palettes to $24,000.
Additionally, the Effect Type 4F: Spirit, which is not used in FF5r, has been replaced with a different calculation method in the damage calculation.
