Hack description

This patch was made to be applied with Chaos Rush's retranslation patch ( https://retrohackers.net/translation-details.php?id=4868/ ), but can be applied if you're playing in Japanese. Although there is a version of his patch that works with FF Restored, the bugfixes in this patch is for those wanting to play the game from the Japanese rom without the various cosmetic changes and conveniences.

Although it is unclear what the "Rev B" implies, it seems the 'Enemy Suicide Bug" is possibly fixed, according to the hex editor. Other than that, a lot of the fan-made fixes meant for the USA version in mind are applicable in the Japanese version, with the exception of the HOUSE MP, Black Belt Armor, Silent Altars, Door and People-walk-through-you fixes, as they would cause very noticeable issues, with some outright causing crashes.

Naturally, this patch can be applied to the USA version, although you would have to apply the aforementioned fixes not applicable to the Japanese version elsewhere.
