I'm editing this post to better reflect the current state of this project.

FF6Tools is a browser-based ROM editor with support for various Final Fantasy ROMs for NES, SNES/SFC, and GBA. The full list of supported ROMs is available on the GitHub page. It has been tested in the most recent versions of Chrome, Firefox, and Safari. Internet Explorer and Edge are not recommended.

Please post questions and comments about FF6Tools in this thread, or feel free to open an issue on GitHub if you find a bug or have a request for future improvements.


FF6Tools started as an app for OS X which is no longer being developed. Old builds are available here: https://www.ff6hacking.com/wiki/doku.php...l:ff6tools

Hi all. I wanted to share some screenshots of a project I've been working on. This is FF6Tools - a ROM editor for OS X. It has a map/event editor and a battle/monster editor, as well as tools to edit a lot of other game data. I'm especially proud of the event script editor. You can insert and delete commands and then it recalculates all of the pointers when you save so that everything still matches up. I find it a lot less tedious than making events in hex.

Map/Event Editor
World Map Editor
Battle/Monster Editor
Misc. Editors
FF6j Support
More FF6j Support
FF6 Advance Support
More FF6 Advance Support

I'm not quite ready to release it yet, but I've made a lot of good progress recently and I'd like to find a couple people willing to test it out to help me track down bugs. Shoot me a PM if you're interested.

While that is utterly amazing, I'm irked there's an Event Editor I can't use because I'm on Windows.
I go cry somewhere else. Good job, it's a really impressive feat.


Step forward, spriters! We are also responsible to make hacks look new and fresh, we are no less important than code or ASM hackers! CHARGE!!

Is that really happening? there's the potential risk at this rate that it would be more convenient to transfer our work on GBA?
well, not for now at least, sounds still wip and well... it's on OS X  Sad (only have windows or eventually linux on virtual machine)
btw, what's not yet covered from your GBA tools that SNES version has instead?

About Snes... aside your event editor is there any other tool you made that deals with stuff that currently available tools still don't do?

Very cool. Hopefully this will get those mac folks interested in FF6 modding. Even I might yet find use for that old macbook in my closet. If this works on Snow Leopard, I'd be happy to test it.

The GBA support is very much a WIP. I've been getting things to work on the SNES versions first and then transferring them over as I go.

Eventually it should be possible to get everything working for any version of the ROM (even the PSX version and fan-made hacks). It just takes time to find where all the data is located.
