Final Fantasy VI Advance: FFVI Advance Font Enhancement

Inspired by Dragonsbrethren's work for FFIV ADVANCE, this patch "improves" the fonts of this fantastic game. It has been made not only to look good in English, but with the other four languages (German, French, Italian, and Spanish) in mind. That is why it was made for the European version of the ROM.

Inspired by Dragonsbrethren's work for FFIV ADVANCE, this patch "improves" the fonts of this
fantastic game. It has been made not only to look good in English, but with the other four
languages (German, French, Italian, and Spanish) in mind. That is why I made it for the European
version of the ROM.

Current features in this patch:

?Enhanced dialog font for all european languages
?A hand for dialog choices

Planned features:

?Enhanced menu font for all european languages
?Enhanced text-containing tiles
?Anything related you could request (if I have the time)

Patching Instructions
=================================================================================================

To use this patch you need the following:

?FINAL FANTASY VI ADVANCE (E) ROM

If you need an IPS patching utility and you're using Windows I recommend Lunar IPS:

Sorry, I can't provide you with the game ROM.


Once you have all that, use your patching program to patch a copy of your ROM and run it in
your favorite emulator or flash it to your flashcart and enjoy.
