FF6 Improvement Project

Regarding the translation, it's 99% complete, needing only the timed singing sequences of the Opera to be changed.

I should really get my ass in gear and do that; it seems that more than one project could benefit from it.

Well, I spoke too soon on it - turns out I used some old data AND FF3usME 6.7 on it, which garbles the Magitek menu and the Rare Item descriptions. So I'm in the process of recreating the improvement, and 1.05 will be out pretty soon! ;[

As for the Opera, that's my next undertaking - I've got translation notes from FF6Advance and the Lina Darkstar project, and I know how to change the timing. But getting it right (and better than the original) will be more tedious than the rest of this project has been if I can't find something that will let me skip to the Opera scene after I make changes.

Speaking of - does anyone have anything of the sort, or know how to do that?

You don't need to worry about translation notes; unlike the rest of FF6, the Opera actually has an official English translation, which Nobuo Uematsu performs when he's playing in English speaking countries. It's on a number of the vocal Final Fantasy compilations, most notably the More Friends From Final Fantasy album recorded in Los Angeles in 2005. Someone actually wrote the lyrics down here: http://finalfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/Opera...Friends.29 .
