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.

Modified by me, Magus,
because I personally think the
orginal graphics for FF1 totally suck. Feel free
to destribute this wherever you like, just make sure to
include this documentation...and most importantly...
Enjoy... (or die a gruesome and nastily mutilated
death...or something similar ^^)
Oh, and enjoy... >:D

and character starting attributes.
1.0
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
What does this package include? Well, it should have:
readme.txt (Hmm, probably what you're reading now...)
ffxtreme.nes (the whole reason you probably
downloaded this package to begin
with...am I right?)
1.1
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
What's been changed:
1)Fighter => Rydia
2)Thief => Butz
3)B. Belt => Lenna as the "Monk" class
4)RedMage => Cecil, Paladin
5)W. Mage => Plain Lenna with a cape
6)B. Mage => Butz (I think) as the "Black Mage" class
7)The class-changed characters are purely my creations,
so I can't say "this chump is from this game" and be
very accureate. They may slightly resemble their former
selves in most cases.
7.5) The palette for the 16x24 character sprites (you
know, the ones you control in combat) has been changed
to better colors. (The palette info for the character
sprites that you move around the map seems to defy the
standard palette format, maybe because color#3 for
the top half can be something different than color#3 for
the bottom half... ::shrug:: Any info is greatly
appreciated. :)
8)Hammers have been replace by whips. Why? Because a
hammer is a gay excuse for weapon...we're not pounding
nails in planks, we're gutting dragons and imps. :P
9) [temporary] The starting values for chars have been
grossly inflated to enable me to progress throught the
game at a faster pace...these will still be different
than in the original, but won't be so high in the final
version. Enjoy the powers of God-hood while you can!
10)More changes will come as I progress:
a) More and different items will have spell-like powers
b) Some spells will be different
c) All characters will be able to use magic
d) Treasure boxes will also have different contents...for
the most part.
1.2
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
WANTED! If you can tell me anything about these, you
will have my undying gratitude (and your name will be
smeared all over the credits part, of course :D)
1) How the item/spell information is stored in the ROM
and/or the offset of the item/spell data. Also, where
the treasure box contents data might begin would
definitely be appreciated.
2) Some way to change the colors used for the characters
in the overhead view.
3) Where the flags are that tell who can use what spell,
and who gets additional spell levels on level-up.
Any decent help you can give is greatly appreciated! :)
1.3
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
IMPORTANT! Please, do not mail me with stupid questions
like:
1) How do I run this on my NES?
A: You can't...you need one of the many NES *emulators*
out there. Go to http://archaic-ruins.parodius.com for
all the emulator-crap you may need. (I recommend NESTicle)
And please, don't bother them with stupid questions, either!
2) Wow, cool! How did you change the graphics like that?
A: Um...see "Tools Used" in the "Credits" section...
3) I got X-char. How do I use it?
A: look in the author's readme file. It
tells you everything you need to know.
