@jasonschreier @jennfrankgames @BenKuchera update -- the FFVI PC remake runs its logic off an internal ROM Lars Doucet ن added,

@larsiusprime The rom contained in the archive is byte-for-byte exactly the same as the JP GBA rom (except for a single byte in the middle)

@larsiusprime @jasonschreier @jennfrankgames @BenKuchera Not sure about its logic per say, but it definitely uses it for SOMETHING."

I think as soon as @rivernyxx has cracked the FLB format for effects, I'll write a big report on this whole thing as a follow up article

@larsiusprime I've still got a few other things to poke at-- the audio .AKBs, for one~ I also wanna check to what extent the rom is used.

@rivernyxx well we know from the elixir test that it's driving some core stuff at the very least, right?

@larsiusprime I'm thinking it's probably the ultimate database for the game, with the actual logic done in the .exe-- we'll see. ^^

@rivernyxx even if it's just a database, that's still pretty significant and could make existing romhacks quite useful!

@larsiusprime Yeah! When you think about it, it's actually a pretty good idea to keep add accurate as possible without introducing mistakes~

@rivernyxx how would you figure this stuff out? Look for an embedded emulator? Look for what accesses the ROM?

@larsiusprime Yeah, likely look for the offsets at which it accesses the rom and cross reference with known tables. That seems most accurate
