FF6Tools - Browser-Based ROM Editor

I made a tool that makes NES music using Capcom's sound engine from the Mega Man games a few years ago. It might be a good starting point for an MML-based parser for FF6 music. The song data format is very similar. The text format I came up with is loosely based on MML. Here's a link to a browser version if anyone is interested: BLAST

What I have in mind for FF6Tools would be to extract song data from a ROM and display it as text in the browser window. I was thinking of using the MML format on the wiki as a starting point. Thanks madsiur for letting me know about that! Then you could edit the text or copy and paste custom songs in the same format. Then FF6Tools will parse the text, convert it into song data, and insert it into the ROM. Is that something that folks would be interested in? It sounds like the Japanese RS3 tool basically does this already (though I've never used it).

Something else that I've always wanted to do is to make a graphical music editor like Sibelius or Finale (but for video game music). I know a few musicians/composers who would like to make video game music but are intimidated by things like MML. It would be a lot more work, but it's on my bucket list.

A couple more updates, I added support for all of the SFC/SNES versions of FF4 to the map editor. I also added an event editor (currently only working for the SNES version of FF3). It still has some issues but I think it's a pretty good proof of concept. It has to read the entire event script when you load a ROM, so hopefully it's not too slow on older computers. You can edit some commands, but you can't currently add, move, or delete commands. I have all that working in the OS X version though, I just need to copy it over.
