FF6 - Brave New World

Version 1.0.6 is now available for download. Additionally, a link has been added to the bottom of the original post to a review by one of the early downloaders of the release version. It does a good job of summarizing most of what we were going for in the mod.

That's Albrook, by the way. Dunno why that green transparency is over the town. Can we fix it?

I can't duplicate it, so not really. There are two potential causes I can think of:

1. You're patching over old versions. If this is the case, try patching a fresh ROM with 1.0.6 and see if it still occurs.
2. We ran into a problem in beta testing where we overflowed the graphical buffer, which for whatever reason messed with my ZSNES settings. If #1 isn't the case, send me your zsnes.cfg file (if you use ZSNES) and I'll see if I can find anything amiss.

4: What differs between Active and Wait? I keep my stuff on Wait and it isn't like in Chrono Trigger where the wait is more noticeable.

With the Wait setting, any time you're in a menu (item, magic, lore, whatever), all ATB timers stop for every other battle participant. It's probably not as noticeable because the pace of combat in this hack is pretty slow.

8: Can we get the Relic list alphabetized?

Well, you can sort it yourself. Having it auto-sort alphabetically would probably involve re-writing the sort function, which is not something I'm terribly keen on doing.

10: After beating the burning house in Thamasa, may we get a full party heal (HP/MP)?

The inn costs 1 GP.

12: When Shadow leaves the party in Thamasa, can we immediately get back the gear instead of waiting for Relm to join?

I guess this is doable. It'll end up low enough on my list of priorities that I can't say when I'll get around to it.

16: After Thamasa, can you ensure the world map is on? (It seems off by default.)

I don't know. Maybe? I don't think there's an event command to toggle the minimap.
