Oh shoot. I forgot that the Editor Restoration only works with the headered patch. If you find a headered rom file and use the headered patch, you should be able to continue on from your save file. I apologize that I don't really have the bandwidth this weekend to help in advanced troubleshooting.

Just started playing this today. Finished Zozo and went to Jidoor to Owzers house, and the letter isn't there, and I'm stuck. Is there something else you have to do in this version first, or is this a bug

If I remember correctly, you go to the [spoiler]Auction House[/spoiler] first in this hack I think.
We are born, live, die and then do the same thing over again.

I'm enjoying Divergent Paths, it's the first time I've ever tried a FF6 Hack, but...I just finished the Floating Continent, waited for Shadow at the end, and watched the world get remade...and then it never loads up the next part, it's just the black screen with the wind howling in the background. Please help, I want to keep going, but I've reloaded my save from right before Atma Weapon 4 times now and it keeps getting stuck on that black screen with the background wind.
What am I screwing up and how do I not?
You need to run the editor restoration patch included in the Extras folder. If you made any edits to Divergent Paths in FF3usME after patching it, it screws up the World of Ruin map.
I certainly didn't do any editing, I'm wouldn't even know how to start doing something like that, but I will see if I can figure out how to do...the thing you said...
*update* So I found the "editor restoration" thing in the folder, double clicked it, and it asked me to find the file...so I clicked on the FF6DP folder, it said it was successfully patched...and now, the game won't even start... The same thing happened to me with the World of Ruin, I think it happened because I applied both the headered & non-headered files. But I'm not sure because I've been away from any sort of technology since the 31st. (I would've reported this on that day if I wasn't gone!)

Hi Power Panda, AMAZING HACK (my personal "definitive version" of FFVI) So I know I've joined the conversation about this before, but it was right before I got off of FF & Rom Hacks. Recently, I've been trying to add the "shadowgp removal" patch because I don't like shadow having Gil toss (BIG loss for Sezer who kinda needs it). I saw somewhere that that was the correct patch to add, but whenever I load the game in the WoR overworld, it just crashes. I saw what you said about applying the "editor restoration" patch & I did that, but the problem still persisted. I then looked back & saw that you said that the Editor Restoration only works with the headered patch, witch is my problem as I have a non-headered rom. It would be very helpful if you could help me find a solution. Thanks in advance!

I just went to a couple of ROM sites and looked for the correct version, did the editor restoration, and everything worked just fine. Good luck!

Like you got a headered version of the rom? I've tried to look for one with no avail. If that is what you did, could you send me the site? Thanks!

Man, I wish I could, but my computer is down right now, relying on my phone for now. Sorry I can't be more help.

You can always add the header yourself with a tool like this one:
