Return of the Dark Sorcerer v2.9.9     By Gi Nattak, 2024

===============================
HOW TO PLAY THE HACK
===============================

- Use 7-Zip to unpack the file.
- Included are patches for both headered (h) and headerless (nh) ROMs. If you don't know if your ROM is headered or not, you can use a user-friendly utility like SNEStuff to add or remove the header, then apply the appropriate patch. 
- Correct ROM to patch to: Final Fantasy III (U)(V1.0) ... NOT V1.1.
- Make sure your ROM is 100% clean, meaning there has been no previous modifications.
- Do not patch over a previous RotDS version.
- Feel free to use either 'soundtrack a' or 'soundtrack b' patches, by default the game starts with 'soundtrack a', so no need to use that patch unless you wish to revert back from 'soundtrack b'.
- There are additional patches that can be used in the 'extras' folder.
- The game should run on any of the current popular emulators, I recommend the latest versions of snes9x or bsnes that support ExHiROM. I highly recommend not using ZSNES; it's outdated, inaccurate, and the audio is poorly emulated.
If you're intent on using ZSNES, you'll need to use a custom build that supports ExHiROM, found at FuSoYa's Niche called 'ZSNES 8MB Custom Build'.
- Any of the included patches when used will in turn make the checksum read as 'bad', but it doesn't effect anything at all so no worries.
- Upon starting a new game (or a new game +) you will be asked to choose a difficulty. By default, the game is meant to be played on 'Regular' difficulty, which is basically a not-so-large step up from the original game in terms of overall difficulty. The following difficulties are of course more challenging; monsters and bosses have higher stats and HP, as well as AI changes for bosses sometimes. You will receive more EXP and gil for each subsequently harder difficulty. 'Insane' difficulty is recommended for New Game + (once you beat the game).
- Check out the 'classroom.txt' document located inside 'infos.zip' to learn more about the mod's changes & features.

Important!
If you are having a freezing issue in battle it's because you used the wrong patch for your ROM, for instance you may have patched a headerless ROM with the patch intended for a headered ROM, or visa-versa.

Attempting to use any save data besides RotDS save data will most assuredly cause some sort of terrible issue.
If you use ZSNES and any sort of bug happens, please don't bother reporting it to me.

**DANGER** THOSE WHO ARE PRONE TO SEIZURES MAY WISH TO KNOW THAT SOME PARTS OF THE GAME HAVE CONTINUOUS FLASHING WHICH MAY INDUCE SEIZURES OR UNDESIRED EFFECTS ON PEOPLE WHO ARE SENSITIVE TO THESE TYPES OF DISPLAY!! A PATCH IS PROVIDED IN THE 'EXTRAS FOLDER' THAT WILL ELIMINATE THE FEW MAJOR FLASHING INSTANCES.

===============================
ABOUT THE MOD
===============================

Return of the Dark Sorcerer is an incredibly large fan-made Final Fantasy 6 modification that's been in development since around 2010. Originally the brainchild of Gi Nattak, the project has evolved over the years thanks to a dedicated team and other skilled members of the FF6 romhacking community.

This mod promises to showcase some of the challenging aspects of FF6 romhacking, as well as plenty of fun and exciting new content; from an all new cast of playable characters with customized movesets, a radically changed story with many new and edited events, new overworld maps, a new musical soundtrack, difficulty selection, new battle scripts for monsters & bosses, and an absolute ton of custom monster/esper and NPC sprites.

It is a highly personalized modification of the original game and therefore naturally won't appeal to everyone. It's not a sequel, or a prequel, or a remake to FF6, it is quite simply a massive amalgamation mod and customization of FF6 which does contain a whole bunch of references and can be rather nonsensical or even immersion-breaking at times... but if you go into it prepared for this, you should have a much more enjoyable experience. That being said, a whole lot of time and energy has gone into this project and we are quite pleased with the result.

===============================
KNOWN ISSUES
===============================

- Strange targetting in battles that feature 'characters acting as monsters'.
- Monster formations with a high pixel count might have a sprite experience pixel loss when animations are in progress, due to SNES hardware limitations.
- Vysage's blocking hand palette can mess up due to how it was colored.
- Using too many Quicksilvers in a row (casts Quick) can freeze a character if they are in the middle of casting, or something... try to not use Quicksilver on more than one character at a time! And if you become stuck, try to run. And if all else fails, kill your party member who is frozen stuck.
- Sleeping at the inn in Ornyx (Vector) can be a bit wonkey, caused by the lengthier sleeping song.
- Lich Ring will cause Morph to cost twice as much.
- Leo's blaster attack can have some wonkiness with the 'X' animation going on the wrong monster.
- Sometimes Jump will have an additional 'jump' sound happen while in midair, especially when Quicksilver is used directly after Jump. This is an original bug, but becomes more frequent in RotDS because of a multitude of reasons.
- Monsters that can use Jump sometimes will stay up in the air much longer than they should, but will eventually come back down. This is rare enough that I can't reproduce it ever to try and fix it.
- Text boxes in custom intro become weird if game resets during it, with no srm data present.
- Fusoya is the wrong palette during the ending scene.
- In some rare cases, a magic-blocking shield animation can cause a character to step forward or back after blocking.
- Bringing the guest-item character Astral to the 2nd WoR Mobliz Proto-Babil fight will result in him being removed from the party/battle due to another temporary guest joining the fight which uses the same character ID.
- after defeating the final boss, the screen may or may not stay at a black screen until the 'confirm' button is pressed to continue the event.
- If using an inferior emulator, such as ZSNES, a couple select monster formations will have the selectable hand cursor blocked out by the monster mould, and some select songs may have issues.
