-==================================DISCLAIMER==================================-

This hack is an offshoot of FuSoYa's VWF Edition hack. The bulk of
the script changes were created by FuSoYa's Niche. I am not the original
author of the script changes or the VWF hack. You can find out more about
Secret of Mana VWF Edition here:

-=================================Instructions=================================-

This hack must be applied to a clean non-headered US version of Secret of
Mana.  To apply the patch you'll need an IPS patching program like Floating
IPS. You can find Floating IPS here:

About Relocalized:

Secret of Mana - Relocalized focuses on updating, uncensoring, and
relocalizing" gameplay, graphical and text (both script and non-script)
elements of Secret of Mana

- Death Machine: AKA Kettle Kin gets restored to its full uncensored chainsaw
  wielding glory. Not only is this a graphical hack, it also rewrites the its
  AI to perform just as it did in the original Japanese release. 

- Teleportation Circles: When Square released this game in 1993 Nintendo of
  America had strict policies against religious imagery appearing in its
  titles. The six-pointed stars in the teleportation circles were reduced to
  triangles. This hack restores them to their original appearance.

- Title Screen Background: When Square ported this game over to English, they
  butchered the original background image. Because of some graphical problems
  they cropped the image of the full Mana Tree at its roots and expanded it.
  The result is a blurry pixelated mess. Relocalized restores the original
  image.

- Opening Text Crawl: Relocalized updates the text crawl to that of the
  superior HD version.

- Relocalization: The titular feature. This hack takes the game's outdated,
 awkward, and inaccurate text and script elements and localizes them
 differently. Just like with FuSoYa's hack before it, Relocalized holds true to
 the style of beloved 90's Squaresoft translator, Ted Woolsey.
