Télécharger Dust Flare ROM Hack

================================================================================
Secret of Mana -- Dust Flare
v0.6

================================================================================

In the original game, among the Girl's spells, Gnome had two self-buff spells,
and Salamando had two attack spells.  That made no sense (especially since Girl
lacked attack spell varieties).  So, this hack does the following:

- Switches places of Gnome's Speed Up and Salamando's Fire Bouquet (now named
  Dust Flare, and has Earth element) -- Now, Gnome has Dust Flare, and Salamando
  has Speed Up.

- Changes the colors of spell animations, targets, and icons of Dust Flare and
  Speed Up (to match their new elements).

- Reduces Speed Up's MP Cost from 3 to 2 (to match other buffs).

- Matches Blaze Wall's Power and MP Cost to Dust Flare (so Dust Flare won't
  outclass Blaze Wall).

- Changes the icon color of Stone Saber (to grey).

- Changes the behaviors of various enemies and bosses:
  - Chess Knight	Speed Up (Gnome) --> Speed Up (Salamando)
  - Ghoul		Speed Up (self) --> Dust Flare (one enemy)
  - Imp			Fire Bouquet (one enemy) --> Flame Saber (self)
  - Basilisk		Gem Missile --> Dust Flare
  - Dark Ninja		Speed Up (Gnome) --> Speed Up (Salamando)
  - Minotaur		Earth Slide --> Dust Flare
  - Gorgon Bull		Earth Slide --> Dust Flare
  - Spikey Tiger	Fire Bouquet --> Fireball
  - Axe Beak		Fire Bouquet (one enemy) --> Blaze Wall (all enemies)
  - Dark Lich		Dispel Magic --> Dust Flare
  - Mech Riders		Speed Up --> Lunar Boost



Applying Notes:

- For the normal ROM and VWF, use "Dust Flare 0.6.ips".

- Compatible with Relocalized (use "Dust Flare 0.6 Reloc.ips" instead), but
  apply the patch AFTER applying Relocalized.

- Compatible with "Spell Balance Overhaul" patch.  However, apply the patch
  AFTER applying Spell Balance Overhaul.  If you are going to apply both this
  and Relocalized, then apply in the following order:
    Relocalized --> Spell Balance Overhaul --> Dust Flare 0.6 Reloc.ips



Other Notes:

- I strongly suggest you to check out Queue's [Secret of Mana Turbo] hack
  compilation.  It has all of my hacks (enhanced versions), as well as a LOT of
  others (some of which make the game significantly better).  It even fixes most
  of the glitches and shortcomings that were present in the original game.  And
  you can toggle which hacks to use (very user-friendly).  It is by FAR the best
  SoM hack.

- My hacks in Romhacking.net may be slightly different than the ones in Queue's
  Turbo hack.  That's because my stand-alone hacks are unable to use lots of
  features that were available in the Turbo hack.

  If the link dies, just google "Secret of Mana Turbo", and you should find it.
