Pretty sure somebody made a good tutorial here on the forums. It's probably pinned or something too.

Pretty sure the latest FFVI_Explore takes care of this automatically. I recall updating it to handle exactly that, at somebody's request.

@CodecX Very cool, that looks so good :)

Wow, this actually makes the port playable. It's amazing how such a small detail changes the whole feel from "cheap android game" to "Pretty SNES remake"! I wonder how the hell the developers couldn't see how awful the filter looks.

As someone else said, it actually does the new sprites justice.

Still, I would love it if we could get the old sprites in the game. I'd look into working on it myself, but I fear modding for the Final Fantasy series requires far more familiarity with a hex editor than I'm currently comfortable with...

You'd be surprised. FFVI_Explore actually does all the hard work for you. You just need some basic file management and photoshop skills :) There's another thread here where some people have already done some work restoring the original sprites -- you should hit it up!

Hey guys! Sorry, I don't check these forums as much anymore~
Since I released FFVI_Explore, I've implemented a centralized download server for ALL of my modding tools. The official download link for FFVI_Explore is here: http://www.rivernyxx.com/projects/download.php?pn=FFVI_Explore
This link will always download the most recent version as well, so there's no need to look for new links when there's a new version.

I'll be updating the website in the next month or so to reflect all of the tools available for download on it.

Good luck with your mod! I'm looking forward to it~

Yes, so long as you know how to save the songs in a valid format. FFVI_Explore currently has some hard-coded limitations when converting the .OGG files to valid .AKB files, but so long as you work within those (realistic) limitations, it should work fine :)

TheMathKing has been emailing with me regarding the audio looping issues, and I believe I may have fixed his issues. Here is a new release of FFVI_Explore: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/38150185/FFVI/FFVI_Explore_v0.4b.zip

The only change I've made in this version is improved parsing of the input .OGG file (for looping info and sample count), and converting/storing that data in the correct places in the .AKB wrapper. Hopefully this solves the issue TheMathKing has come across~

Double post! Minor update to improve ogg vorbis wrapping to read looping information from the .ogg file.
