This post compares “definitive Final Fantasy V” mods that have been created by the modding community over the years.
These mods are unofficial and unaffiliated with Square Enix.
For simpler mods that don’t change too much, click here.
In the chart, PF stands for Pixel Freemaster.
PF is to be succeeded by project Omega, likely to take the form of a web patcher. However, the project is on hold pending return of the modmaker of PF.
For a comparison of Whirlwind builds, see here.
Custom Classes did not make the chart, because the mod is for the GBA version. Meanwhile, the SFC port, Super Custom Classes, is included in PF.
Note that “⏯” represents a feature that can be toggled in game.
