I was a big fan of Acmlm's Mario Fantasy Adventure hack. I wanted to see it finished, so I took it upon myself to build upon his already great hack.

HIS HACK CHANGED
Starting Characters
Some Music
Some graphics
Some enemies
Some Text

MY NEW VERSION
All Characters (Daisy and Yoshi now incldued)
All Enemies Graphics and names (no stats) all enemies are now changed including bosses.
More Text

Now you can play through the whole game and the enemies and characters are all from the Mario universe.
Although I am happy with how this turned out, it is not perfect. It doesn't have the finishing polish that makes a great hack; and unfortunately I have reached the limit of my abilities. Maybe someone wants to take this and put their own touches on it.

THINGS TO WORK ON:
Characters and Palettes are a little out of wack (had to work within constraints of Acmlm's hacked palettes since I have no idea how to mod those myself.)
More music could be changed
More map graphics and charater sprites could be changed.

Ok!

You might want to give us some more screenshots first. Did you rearrange any of the maps?

Added 4 screenshots. No I didn't rearrange the maps. It looks as though Acmlm has started moving some things around but I did no do any more. For now, I wanted to keep it true to the flow of FF. If someone takes this torch and runs with it new maps might be a good thing, but it would have to come from someone with more talent at this kind of thing than me .

Maybe slap some of Weasel's Mario FF hack into this (I don't think he'd mind, but maybe someone else thinks otherwise...?)? He had a really nice overworld going. The screenshots on his old Mario Quest site seem to be down (maybe Parasyte can fix that if they're still there?), though I know of at least one pic of it that might be helpful:

Also, his old site has one version of the hack available, but I don't know how much is done in it. *shrugs*

Hope that helps.

My enemies plus his maps would be very cool. His characters look better but I think 3 yoshi's is a little redundant.

Looks good. You ought to change the airship to the SMB3 airship. You can probably add a storybit where Mario Hijacks it from Dennis Hopper.

One suggestion I can think of that would alter the maps, but not greatly, would be to make all the pipes stand out from the mountains a bit. You don't have to change their locations, but just cut into the mountain a bit to make it look better done.

Please don't. Ever.

Actual content: Some of the enemies look a little off, size-wise, but you ARE adapting enemies who, size-wise, run the gamut to FF's rigid "32x32 or 48x48 ONLY" system, so it's gonna happen. Promising.

Super Mario Fantasy Adventure Continues - Hack by Acmlm, then Me, and a little from Weasel's Mario Quest

More Updates----
Map reveted to original Final Fantasy map (Took out minor changes by Acmlm) - Want to make this true to the original game in gameplay.
Main Map graphics altered
Characters Fixed - Yoshi looks better. Daisy and Luigi have proper colors

Works on Final Fantasy (U).nes

Now it is a decent hack. Still improvments can be made (seeing those maps made by Weasel are an obvious indication). Feel free to steal all this and make it better. (I did )

Nice. Might I suggest adding that 5-letter-names hack? IIRC it's a simple change, and seeing how just about all the characters' names are exactly 5 letters...

You can add a 7-letter-name for the game it could be better than 5. Its a suggestion.

Um, XcomGS, you took over the hack because Weasel left and refuse to release it until after he gets back? What was the point of you even taking over the hack, then? If you're gonna sit on the hack for another year and 3 months or so, someone else might as well merge Weasel's nice overworld with MFA to make that hack all that much better, since it's gonna go on being wasted otherwise.

Yes... I was thinking the same thing myself. Xcom is in no position to be materialistic with this.

The Weasel map is very cool. My ideal hack would look like that, but still be the classic map. If Weasel or Xcom want to combine these hacks that would be cool.

Anyone have a quick fix for 5+ letter names?

IIRC, there was a TXT file with one version of FFHackster that explained how to do it. Problem is, that requires use of a hex editor - something many people, myself included, hate using.

Don't think that a patch for it exists, though.

A little comment...

I think that most of the graphic changes are well-done... but the final boss's sprite is hideous (I hope that Giga Bowser will look MUCH better in other releases). The names of the fiends wasn't changed also... which bother me a little bit.

Anyway... can't wait for the next release (this is not the final release, right?).
