Final Fantasy III: Final Fantasy VI - Total Graphics Uncensorship Super Nintendo

  • ~
  • Share
Final Fantasy VI received a number of changes from its Japanese incarnation when it arrived overseas, which extended to graphics. Several of the somewhat adult themes were altered to be family friendly.

There are various mods that revert the censorship, but no one unified patch, plus the existing projects left a few changes untouched. Thus, Total Graphics Uncensorship was created to completely restore the original graphics of FFVI.

In short:

- The original title screen is restored, removing the black and white splash screen
- Barb-e, Dahling, L.80 Magic, and Madam smoke
- Critic, Chadarnook (Woman), Goddess, and the Final Boss Tiers show more skin (Mine cart battle BG bug is fixed)
- Siren and Starlet show more skin
- Cafés are now pubs
- Mute's graphic is fully reverted
- Optionally, the Japanese version's MP growth curve can be restored (See readme for details)

You have permission to use this patch in your projects so long as credit is given to all contributors.

- Players are encouraged to keep a backup of their original game file in case an error occurs.

- Two patches are included.

TotalGraphicsUncensorship_v200.ips (Primary Patch):
Reverts all graphical changes made to Final Fantasy III (US) for SNES.

OriginalMPGrowth_v100.ips (Secondary Patch):
Restores the MP growth curve from the Japanese version. FFIII US, for some reason, saw its MP
growth changed so that characters gain slightly less MP overall, making it a little more
difficult to maximize MP.

Both patches CAN be implied in tandem.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

There have been various attempts at removing the graphical censorship made to Final Fantasy VI over
the years. While the efforts have been appreciated, there hadn't been a unified "one and done" patch
that reverts everything all at once. Total Graphics Uncensorship aims to achieve that.

Note: This patch appears to conflict with madsiur's Zozo Petty Sign Fix. However, I saw them work in
conjunction by applying Total Graphics Uncensorship first, then Petty Sign Fix.

Changelog
=========
v2.00
- Reverted superfluously changed data. (Credit to kamesennin and silentenigma)

- Incorporated silentenigma's FF6 Silence Graphic, which properly and fully reverts the Mute symbol.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

v1.00
- Corrected mine cart sequence battle background. (Credit to silentenigma)

- Separated the MP growth curve restoration from the main project; now provided as an optional
patch. Apply Original MP Growth on top of the new Total Graphics Uncensorship.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

v0.1
- Applied Yazoo's Final Fantasy VI Titlescreen Mod. Unfortunately, as a side effect, Ted Woolsey's
name was removed from the opening credits.

- Applied Terii Senshi's Original Graphics patch.

- Found and replaced the English Mute graphic with the Japanese Silence graphic. The spell and
status effect are both still known as "Mute." Due to the way the graphic was redrawn in the
NTSC-U release, the restored symbol has very minor changes to its Japanese counterpart.

- Reverted the 4 pub signs, as well as a weapon shop sign that received a minor graphical touch-up.
When you enter a pub, however, the location label will still say "CAFE".

- Applied Dr. Meat's Final Battle Uncensored patch.

- Restored the original MP growth curve from the Japanese version; in the English release, for some
reason, how much MP you receive upon level up was lessened slightly.
