Final Fantasy Improvement

This is a great utility. This program allows you to edit the overworld map and the first town of Final Fantasy I, you are presented with all the tiles and you can past them in any fashion you want to create your own town or overworld.

MakeRom
|
This really doesn't do anything except pull off a 6 byte .com header, and throw on the 16 byte .nes header. I only put it here with hopes that someday it will get better.

Showcase
|
This program allows you to create hex values for 8x8 tiles quickly and easily. Simply draw it out, and get the hex values at the bottom. I like this program, the only problem is that it only works with two colors per sprite.

Thingy
|
If you plan to do anything with Final Fantasy, use Thingy. This is a hex editor, much like Hexpose, but you can assign multiple characters to a single hex value. This is a necessity for hacking Final Fantasy.

Naga Sprite Editor
|
Naga is a sprite editor for Snes and Nes game roms. Naga can do 1st, 2nd and 4th bitplane editing on both Nes and Snes roms. To me, Naga is the editor of choice. However, I do not neccessarily have the best taste.

SnesTool
|
I use this mostly for patching roms with translation patches, and creating ips patches; however, SnesTool can also edit headers, and split and join roms, along with other functions that I myself have never used.

Snessor

This is fun. Snessor lets you rip sounds from SNES roms. The classic example is taking Ryu's fireball yell from the Street Fighter 2 rom. This is a lot of fun, also has a Windows 95 port listed below.

Snessor95

This is the Windows 95 port of Snessor listed above. It's not quite as good as Snessor for DOS, but it is still a fun utility. You can browse through the rom and pull out any sound you want.

EmuTools
|
In the words of the creater of EmuTools, the program can "compare, list, verify, fix, and disassemble" rom files. There are programs that do what EmuTools does better, but EmuTools throws it all together in a single set of programs. Read the documentation for more information.

HEx
|
HEx is a program for the TI-85 calculator. It is a creation of my own. Yea! You can convert from binary to hex, and also determine the hex value for an 8x8 sprite such as those used in NES roms. Only problem being you can only do one row at a time. I'm sure there are bugs, and the code is anything but optimal. I wrote this program in about an hour.

Hexpose
|
Hexpose is a simple hex editor. What separates it from most hex editors is that you can create table files that will assign any symbol you choose to a hex value. Instead of viewing hex and ascii, you see hex and the words from the game. Nice utility, I use it for any game other that Final Fantasy I.

ROMedit
|
Romedit is a hex editor. But what separates it from other hex editors is that it uses 8x8 tiles to display the file, and these tiles can be manipulated through special .tbl files. This makes hacking games such as Final Fantasy an easier chore.
