    The Turn-Based mod of Final Fantasy V on SFC has been released courtesy of clymax. The mod is for use with the RPGe English fan translation but should also work with the original Japanese version.

    The mod is unofficial and unaffiliated with Square Enix.

    Release Build: Features

    You can find the release on Romhack Plaza here.

    Battles are now in turn-based mode.

    No more Active Time Battle (ATB) system.

    Development Build: Features

    You can now toggle turn-based via the config menu. The default setting is on.

    The sound setting was repurposed, so this setting now controls both turn-based and sound.

    A demo of the mod is below.

    So, what do you think? What’s your favorite battle system in the Final Fantasy series? Comment below, or come check us out on Discord.

  • Perplexed Player Pans Re:Jobbed on RHDN

    Played Another Site’s Version Without Heeding Its Instructions

    For clymax’s projects, click here. You can also follow him on YouTube or Twitter.

    The following reflects the personal opinion of clymax and does not necessarily reflect the opinion of any other individual of the FFV Central community or of the community as a whole.

    This post is made becauase Romhacking.net (RHDN) doesn’t have a way for a modder to reply to a player review, unlike other sites such as Romhack Plaza (RHP).

    The player review specifies version 1 of Re:Jobbed, which is not the version (0.8) hosted on RHDN here.

    So what’s this version 1, and where can it be found? Version 1 (beta) is hosted exclusively on RHP here. According to the hack submission, version 1 has two builds:

    Instead of checking the instructions or asking for assistance, our player leaves a review concluding the hack is “unfortunately broken,” when maybe it’s the player who unfortunately won’t read.

    So, what do you think? Comment below, or come check us out on Discord.

  • Roundup: T-Edition Projects by clymax

    Final Fantasy Series Mods

    For clymax’s projects, click here. You can also follow him on YouTube or Twitter.

    Special thanks to Kain Stryder for troubleshooting assistance and for maintaining the Mato translation beyond v2.9.4 and for the Lua translation. You can follow Kain’s work via NG Plus, RHDN, or YouTube.

    Our localized nickname for T-Edition is Omega Mk. II.

    1. Floating Continent Glitch Fixes for FFVI: T-Edition (SFC)

    For the publication of the base hack, Tsushiy Edition (T-Edition), which is in Japanese, click here. You can follow Tsushiy via YouTube.

    Stable Build

    For the publication of the glitch fixes as a hack addendum, click here. Only applies to T-Edition v2.9.6+.

    Confirmed to work with the Mato translation and the Lua translation of T-Edition. You can find the Lua translation here.

    Dev Build

    For the dev build, come by our Discord. Includes the features from the stable build plus the additional features below.

    The trophy for taking ~200,000 steps now activates correctly.

    This bug appears to have been fixed previously in the Mato translation. But only now has the fix been isolated and backported to the Japanese original via reimplementation.

    To avoid bifurcating the patch for the Japanese original, the steps portion of the patch is compatible with the Mato translation only if the patch is applied first.

    2. Floating Continent Glitch Fixes for Mato Translation of FFVI: T-Edition (SFC)

    For the publication of the base translation by Tomato (Mato), currently maintained by Kain Stryder on New Game Plus, click here. You can find the original publication via Mato’s older site or RHDN; you can follow Mato via his new site or YouTube.

    Stable Build

    For the publication of the Glitch Fixes as a translation addendum, click here.

    Confirmed to work with the Mato translation of T-Edition.

    Dev Build

    For the dev build, come by our Discord. Includes the features from the stable build plus the additional features below.

    Kefka small battle sprite fixed.

    Catoblepas can now be fought.

    Strago wearing the Lunar Cloak no longer causes Asura or Phoenix Espers or certain magic to be lost with Terra in your party.

    Gau can now equip the Atma Weapon. This accompanied a menu update in T-Edition, and that update has yet to be made compatible with the Mato translation.

    The trophy for getting all the Espers is now awarded in Narshe Beginner House. Update on August 27: as it turns out, the previous fix was only a partial fix, and now the fix has been completed.

    Update on August 26: Strago wearing the Engineer Goggles no longer causes Asura or Phoenix Espers to be lost.

    Update on August 27: Edgar wearing the disguise set no longer causes Terra to unlearn a magic spell. Ten more bugged costumes were isolated by their code and fixed.

    Update on August 31: Five more bugged costumes were isolated by their code and fixed.

    The above fixes are for v3.0.5+.

    The Floating Continent fix and the Kefka fix also apply to v2.9.7, while the rest do not apply other than Catoblepas, which requires backporting.

    The following fix was specifically backported to v2.9.7: Catoblepas can now be fought.

    This fix is available as part of a standalone patch for v2.9.7 via Discord.

    3. Esper Two-Column Reversion for Lua Translation of FFVI: T-Edition (SFC)

    This fix is available via Discord.

    The Lua translation is by Serity, Lazarus, and Kain Stryder. You can find more info on it here, while the latest downloads can be found here.

    Before:

    After:

    Update on August 30: the Blue spell menu was reportedly still bugged, so the entire fix has been redone using a different approach.
