Hack description

Is the Red Mage's hair black? Is it white? Squaresoft certainly doesn't know. Perhaps he comes equipped with Danger Hairâ„¢ that glows white when monsters are near.

Either way, this patch contains a series of slight edits to the overworld character sprites and palettes to make them more closely match their appearance in the battle screen.

*Version 1.1 adds the Ninja's facemask detail and fixes a few rogue pixels of the Black Belt's hair.

A Smally But Appreciated Fix That Is Also Compatible With Final Fantasy RestoredBrekkik2022-07-12Version 1.1

There's something to be said for having consistent sprites between overworld and combat and it seems a little odd to have not been covered by the myriad of other fixes already in Final Fantasy Restored. I'm happy to report that this works with that mod with no noticed issues. So if you're like me and trying to patch together your definitive NES Final Fantasy experience, you certainly can't go wrong with including this one!
