Don’t think this is gonna be a 100% Gold Remake, it’ll have its differences. Extra battles (some’ll be optionals, tough but rewarding), Hoenn Pokemon (in every area, and hard to find) New areas, Remapped some dungeons (so your old guides wont work) , Extra recurring characters (some’ll hate you, some’ll help you)
Note that the hack is incomplete but feel free to enjoy the hack as-is.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ================================== Secret of Mana Early Luna Hack 1.3 by Kethinov Mar 2019 ================================== ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This patch makes it possible to get the Luna elemental as soon as you can reach Karon's ferry, as early as your first visit to Kakkara. Details: - You will no longer be denied access to ride Karon's ferry under any circumstances. The original game denied you access to ride until after you got Lumina. This patch disables that check. - The Crystal Orb in the Moon Palace will now be activated by Thunderbolt instead of Lucent Beam. - These changes also have the side effect of making other Sylphid Crystal Orbs require Thunderbolt instead of Air Blast. - The little girl in Kakkara will give you clues about how to get Luna before giving you clues about how to get Salamando. - This patch does not require you to get Luna early. It merely allows you to. You can still get Luna in the original sequence if you like. To visit the Moon Palace as early as your first visit to Kakkara, follow these steps: 1. From Kakkara town, go two screens south, then two screens right. 2. You'll be in a desert screen very close to the Sea of Wonders as you can tell by the stars all over the ground. 3. If you look at the top of the screen, you'll notice another pathway going north, but you can't reach it because your characters are blocked by the darkened pit of sand in front of it. That's because Square didn't want you to be able to get to Karon's ferry before you get Flammie. 4. You can blow past this obstacle by charging up a weapon and releasing it while facing north. Your other characters will be stuck, but you can just walk up to the next screen and they will catch up with you. Doing that allows getting Luna before Salamando, Shade, or Lumina. Important things to note: - How to combine this with the Variable Width Font hack: 1. Apply VWF, 2. Remove header, 3. Apply Early Luna, 4. Apply Early Luna VWF support. - How to combine this with Relocalized: 1. Apply Relocalized, 2. Apply Early Luna, 3. Apply Early Luna Relocalized support. Changelog: - 1.3: The little girl in Kakkara will now offer Luna clues with VWF and Relocalized as well. Thanks to Queue for providing the code for the support hacks. - 1.2: Altered the little girl in Kakkara to give you clues about how to get Luna before giving you clues about how to get Salamando. The little girl will not give you Luna clues if you have VWF applied. She will revert to the original behavior of only giving Salamando clues when VWF is applied. - 1.1: Fixed bug with VWF. - 1.0: Initial version.
