The European version of FFV Advance has a couple of bug fixes compared to its US cousin; the main
attraction is the "Return/Timer" fix. If you're in a battle with a timer and cast the Time Magic
Return, the timer won't be reset in the US version. However, this was fixed in the European release,
and as of this writing hasn't been back-ported to the US release.

Just like my FFVI Advance project, I chose to release this two-patch package for readability
purposes. One patch improves the font while keeping it slim, and another widens it in the vein of
the US version for readability.

Consider combining this patch with Bregalad's Sound Restoration mod.

There are 2 patches contained in this archive. Choose 1 of the following.

 - FFVA_EUfontlift_SLIMv0-1.ips: Has a better-looking font that preserves the width of the retail
    European GBA version. All five languages will be perfectly readable.

 - FFVA_EUfontlift_THICKv0-1.ips: Widens most of the lowercase letters, giving it a feel more like
    the US release. There will be spillover issues with the four non-English languages.

Overview
========
- There are 2 patches: one that slightly widens the 8x8 font, and one that merely beautifies it
  while keeping it the same width.

- The broadsword and hammer icons have been improved.

- Continuity errors fixed in the Music Player.

- For the dialogue font, both the inverted and upright question and excalmation marks have been
  thinned, like in Final Fantasy XII: Revenant Wings.

Changelog
=========
v0.1
- Modified the menu font to look more like the one used in the US release. It’s still the same size,
  just prettier. The Music Player font followed suit.

- Made a thicker variant of the menu font; the Music Player font is still its original width in this
  patch. There will be two patches.

- In both patches, replaced the white mallet icon with FFIV's hammer icon.

- In both patches, embellished the broadsword icon so it's more distinguishable from the longsword
  icon.

- In both patches, thinned the exclamation and question marks (As well as the inverted ones) in the
  dialogue font.

- In both patches, changed the names of a few music tracks.
