Application instructions: This is an xDelta patch, use your patcher of choice on your Bin/ISO and you should be good to go. TextFix is the main patch. The changes only in TextFix Altered are listed in the bottom of this list. No Suffixes uses the number system in spells as opposed to suffixes (2/3/4 instead of -ra/-ga-ja). Always use a clean Bin/ISO when applying. Don't patch one on top of another. Job Ability Names: Cure 2>Cura Cure 3>Curaga Cure 4>Curaja Raise 2>Arise (Life/Full-Life/Auto-Life could've worked too, however Raise is an already existing term.) Protect 2>Protectga Shell 2>Shellga Fire 2>Fira Fire 3>Firaga Fire 4>Firaja Bolt>Thunder Bolt 2>Thundara Bolt 3>Thundaga Bolt 4>Thundaja Ice>Blizzard Ice 2>Blizzara Ice 3>Blizzaga Ice 4>Blizzaja Haste 2>Hastega Frog>Toad Slow 2>Slowga Don't Move>Immobilize Demi>Gravity Demi 2>Graviga (Quarter/Demi is an idea too, however Graviga is a term that already exists and fits with the naming scheme, plus there's a third ability in the line.) Zombie>Zombify Petrify>Break Slif>Sylph Rich>Lich Carbunkle>Carbuncle Asura>Ashura Koutetsu>Kotetsu Bizen Boat>Osafune Wiznaibus>Knife Dance (A literal translation of this ability is "With Knives" and I think that sums up the effects nicely while still fitting the original translation's naming scheme.) Spin Fist>Spinning Fist Repeating Fist>Pummeling Fist Earth Slash>Earth Render Secret Fist>Death Touch (Secret Hole Fist may refer to punching the Death point in qigong internal healing also known as dim mak, or Death Touch as it’s referred to in the west.) Stigma Magic>Purify Gil Taking>Steal Gil Steal Accessry>Steal Accessory Water Ball>Torrent (There was no way around updating a lot of the Elemental abilities: Blizzard is already used, and many Elemental abilities are references to FFV's Gaia list or FFVI’s dancing.) Hell Ivy>Tanglevine Carve Model>Engrave Local Quake>Tremor Kamaitachi>Wind Slash Demon Fire>Ignis Fatuus (A word about why this is used instead of Will-O’-the-Wisp: the hyphen character in FFT is bugged in that it’s improperly spaced, making any attempt at such stand out horribly. This means the same thing while sidestepping the issue.) Quicksand>Bottomless Bog Sand Storm>Sandstorm Blizzard>Snowstorm Gusty Wind>Gust Head Break>Helm Break (This functionally makes more sense.) Heaven Thunder>Heavenly Thunder (Truth/Un-Truth went through a lot of revisions and needed to be dealt with. See the FAQ and Credits doc for everything about that.) Asura>Ashura Diamond Sword>Adamantine Sword Hydragon Pit>Hydra Maelstrom (A melding of both the original and WOTL) Space Storage>Celestial Void Heaven Thunder Back>Infernal Thunder Asura Back>Infernal Ashura Diamond Sword Back>Brimstone Sword (Admantine means unbreakable, Brimstone is very breakable.) Hydragon Pit Back>Hyudra Maelstrom (Like the monster catalog.) Space Storage Back>Corporeal Void Sky Demon Back>Infernal Demon Ice Bracelet>Ice Breath Fire Bracelet>Fire Breath Thunder Bracelet>Thunder Breath Holy Bracelet>Holy Breath Dragon Power Up>Dragon Might Dragon Level Up>Dragon Speed Stick (throw)>Pole Don't Act>Disable Aspel>Osmose Split Punch>Splitting Strike (I'm confident that Punch was somehow a mistranslation of Strike; literal translations point to Strike in every one of these that call it Punch.) Crush Punch>Polaris Crush (As in the North Star. This used to be for Blastar Punch but it ended up more indicitive of this.) Lightning Stab>Lightning Thrust Shellbust Stab>Shellbust Thrust Blastar Punch>Starbomb Strike Hellcry Punch>Hellscream Strike MBarrier>Magic Barrier Deathspell 2>Cleanse Enemy/Monster Abilities: Deathspell>Dispel Despair 2>Dispelga Shadow Stitch>Shadowbind Stop Bracelet>Last Breath Spell>Spellbind Death Cold>Ague Bio 2>Biora Bio 3>Bioga Toad 2>Toadga Gravi 2>Gravija Flare 2>Flarega Blind 2>Blindga Confuse 2>Confusega Sleep 2>Sleepga Return 2>Returnga All-Ultima>Eschaton Ice Bracelet>Ice Breath Fire Bracelet>Fire Breath Thunder Bracelet>Thunder Breath Turn Punch>Whirlwind Self Destruct>Self-Destruct Shake Off>Pickaxe Wave Around>Pickaxe Spin Blow Fire>Breathe Fire Black Ink>Ink (Some may say this one is nitpicking. However, this also seems to be a reference to the same ability in FFVI's Ultros.) Look of Devil>Devil's Gaze Look of Fright>Dread Gaze Odd Soundwave>Dischord Clam Spirit>Calm Spirit Throw Spirit>Ectoplasm Grease Touch>Oily Touch Death Sentence>Doom (Note that this is only for the monster ability! The Talk Skill is unchanged.) Scratch Up>Talon Scratch Shine Lover>Shiny! Beaking>Peck Straight Dash>Reckless Dash Nose Bracelet>Snort Bad Bracelet>Bad Breath Moldball Virus>Malboro Virus Stab Up>Gore Sudden Cry>Heave Hurricane>Twister Ulmaguest>Almagest Dash>Charge Triple Bracelet>Triple Breath Midgar Zolom/Swarm>Midgardsormr (This can also be Jormungand or one of it's other written names. It is however more commonly known in FF, and more importantly the prioritized sources, by this name) Counter/Support Abilities: Dragon Spirit>Dragonheart Regenerator>Regenerate Auto Potion>Auto-Potion Counter Magic>Return Magic Sunken State>Vanish Abandon>Reflex Weapon Guard>Parry MP Switch>MP Shield Meatbone Slash>Bonecrusher Counter Flood>Nature's Wrath Absorb Used MP>Absorb MP Gilgame Heart>Gil Snapper (This is named after a monster in other FF games; outside Japan it's named Gil Snapper/Turtle instead of Gilgame.) Finger Guard>Earplug Arrow Guard>Block Arrows Secret Hunt>Poach Monster Skill>Beastmaster Monster Talk>Beast Tongue (I was originally against this, however it doesn't feel right not matching with Beastmaster.) Two Hands>Doublehand Two Swords>Dual Wield Half of MP>Half MP Gained JP UP>JP Boost Gained EXP UP>EXP Boost Attack UP>Attack Boost Defense UP>Defense Boost Magic Att. UP>Magic Boost Magic Def. UP>MDef. Boost Train>Tame Move HP Up>HP Stroll (There are very few places where abilities like this are localized as they are rare in FF necessitating an exception; the Stroll moniker actually comes from FFX. Lifefont does appear in FFIV but as a mistranslation.) Move MP Up>MP Stroll Teleport 2> Teleportga Walk on Water>Swim (Walk on Water and Move in Water were originally switched around by accident.) Move in Water>Walk on Water (Now you can easily tell these apart.) Move on Lava>Walk on Lava Move Underwater>Waterbreathing Move Find Item>Treasure Hunt Skillset names: -Elemental>Geomancy (It's mentioned in Nature's Wrath's description, so I assume this was intended.) -Phantom>Esper (Phantom Beast is usually localized to Esper, and this is a summon set.) Skillset descriptions: -Updated with new job names. -Fixed "Clerk" in a Cleric skillset. -Fixed a White Mage mention in the Priest's skillset. Ability Descriptions: -All Geomancy now refers to the correct terrain names. -Ground Type and all terrain names are now properly capitalized. -Fixed a very obviously missing "the" and various missing spaces in Geomancy. -Elemental>Geomancy Spell Quotes: -Relevant spell quote changes have been updated for consistency, and have also been fixed so that all of them now end with punctuation. -All spell quotes actually talk about the spell they're casting. For example, Steady Sword>Stasis Sword. -Inconsistencies in Summon names (Rich/Lich for example) have been fixed. Equipment Names: Platina Dagger>Platinum Dagger (While Platina is something that exists, these have always been made of straight Platinum.) Hidden Knife>Hidden Edge (The idea here is to differentiate these from actual Knives.) Ninja Knife>Kunai Short Edge>Kodachi Spell Edge>Spellbinder Sasuke Knife>Sasuke Edge Iga Knife>Iga Edge Koga Knife>Koga Edge Broad Sword>Broadsword Long Sword>Longsword Ice Brand>Icebrand Nagrarock>Nagrarok Asura Knife>Ashura Koutetsu Knife>Kotetsu Bizen Boat>Osafune (Bizen-Osafune would not be a bad compromise here, however FF has always localized this as just Osafune outside of MMOs. It also leaves a bit of worry when dealing with spacial issues.) Bow Gun>Bowgun Cross Bow>Crossbow Night Killer>Knight Killer Gastrafitis>Gastraphetes Long Bow>Longbow Ultimus Bow>Artemis Bow Ramia Harp>Lamia Harp Madlemgen>Omnilex (The term Madlemgen is abbreviating is a little too long, so this looks a little better.) Oberisk>Obelisk Cypress Rod>Cypress Pole Musk Rod>Musk Pole Gokuu Rod>Gokuu Pole Ivory Rod>Ivory Pole Octagon Rod>Octagon Pole Platina Shield>Platinum Shield Platina Helmet>Platinum Helmet Barbuta>Barbut Triangle Hat>Wizard Hat Chain Mail>Chainmail Plate Mail>Platemail Platina Armor>Platinum Armor Leather Outfit>Leather Garb Leather Vest>Leather Plate Chain Vest>Chain Plate Adaman Vest>Adamant Vest Wizard Outfit>Wizard Garb Judo Outfit>Judo Uniform Power Sleeve>Power Garb Earth Clothes>Gaia Gear Secret Clothes>Ninja Gear Black Costume>Black Garb Rubber Costume>Rubber Suit Spike Shoes>Spiked Boots Rubber Shoes>Rubber Boots Sprint Shoes>Hermes Shoes Defense Ring>Protect Ring Elf Mantile>Elven Mantile Setiemson>Septieme Salty Rage>Sortilege Item catagories: Cross bow/Cross Bow>Crossbow Stick>Pole (All Sticks/"Rods" are now normalized as Poles because names to these were all over the place in vanilla, and sharing Rod would confuse at least me at certain points.) Item Names: Magic Shuriken>Fuma Shuriken Item Descriptions: -Spell Effect names updated . -Updated boot items that were once shoes. -Equip abbreviations updated to account for Dragoon: Ln>Dg Terrain Descriptions: -All terrain names are now properly capitalized. -Updated with new Gemomancy names. -Fixed erroneous spaces in the descriptions, and removed a bit of untranslated text above Road. -The instance of two periods before a Geomancy is replace with a colon (on top of looking nicer, this and the spaces make up for the extended names). -Lava Rocks>Lava Rock Job Names: Lancer>Dragoon Heaven Knight>Heaven Seer (I didn't want the original translation's vibe to be lost here, but at the same time these are never mentioned as any kind of Knight outside of job name. Seer fits, it's actually more like "user.") Hell Knight>Hell Seer Lune Knight>Rune Knight Bi-Count>Viscount Sorceror>Sorcerer Arch Angel>Holy Archangel Arc Duke>Archduke Arc Knight>Archknight (Yes, this is correct. Ark Knight was still a mistranslation.) Arc Witch>Archwitch Knight Blade>Nightblade Gobbledeguck>Gobbledygook Curar>Coeurl Pisco Demon>Piscodemon Squidlarkin>Squidraken Mindflare>Mindflayer Bone Snatch>Bonesnatch Gust>Ghost Revnant>Revenant Flotiball>Floateye Juravis>Jura Aevis Steel Hawk>Steelhawk Cocatoris>Cockatrice Wildbow>Wild Boar Woodman>Dryad Trent>Treant Minitaurus>Minotaur Sacred>Sekhret Morbol>Malboro Great Morbol>Great Malboro Archaic Demon>Archaedemon Unexplored Land Names (This is according to PS1 and GBA version translations, for FFIII it's according to DS): Shrine of Chaos>Chaos Shrine (In PS1 it is Temple of Chaos, in GBA onward it is Chaos Shrine. We're going with the closer one.) Magic Continent>Floating Continent (FFVI Reference. In PS1 it is Floating Land, everywhere else it's Floating Continent) Castle of Trials>Citadel of Trials (FFI Reference. In all versions but NES it is known as this.) Floating Castle>Flying Fortress (FFI reference, In all versions but NES it's known as the latter.) Pandemonium>Pandaemonium (In FFIX it's Pandemonium, but it's a reference to FFII's Pandaemonium.) Magic Train>Phantom Train (FFVI Reference. In PS1 it is Ghost Train, in SNES and GBA/Mobile it is Phantom Train.) Semite Falls>Semitt Falls (FFII Reference.) Falgabrid>Falgabard (FFIII Reference.) Touzas Village>Tozus Village (FFIII Reference.) Treasure Names (same as above): Calcobrina>Calcabrina (An exception was made here. In PSP's version of FFIV, which uses the same translation as GBA for the most part, it was corrected to the latter.) Magi-Sword>Zanmato (Reoccurring weapon.) M-Fiction Novel>Magic Novel (This is not fiction! Literally this is a textbook, however the description points to a novel.) Yurgeivoge>Lugae (This is supposed to be an FFIV reference to Dr. Lugae) Wyuvle>Oeilvert (I also confirmed by sound novel names to make sure. Maybe FFIX references it by the location?) Excalipar>Excalipoor (this is the most common name for it) Minu Orb>Minwu Orb (FFII reference to Minwu, also present as an accessory in Tactics Advance.) Statue of Lylis>Lilith Statue (Biblical reference, possibly also the reoccurring enemy.) Longibunne Spear>Longinus (Longibunne is a mistranslation, it's known as plain Longinus in GBA remakes of FF games. Can also be known as Lance of Longinus.) Descriptions of Unexplored Lands and Treasures: -Updated with the correct names, including Minwu. -Parasite tree misspelled Yggdrasil, fixed. -Semitt Falls and Pandaemonium misspelled Palamecian, fixed. -Citadel of Trials listed "Red Wing" instead of "Red Wings" meaning the FFIV military group. Fixed. -The reference to Magic Train was kept in Phantom Train, though the main name and above was fixed. It's supposed to be a different name. Help: -Fixed Sagittarius being mentioned twice on the same line in Gemini’s tip. Only in TextFix Altered: Shellbust Thrust>Crush Armor (All swordskills under this patch retain their original name in spell quotes. This is menu only.) Starbomb Strike>Crush Helm Hellscream Strike>Crush Weapon Icewolf Bite>Crush Accessory Stasis Sword>Judgement Blade Splitting Strike>Cleansing Strike Polaris Crush>Northstar Rapture Lightning Thrust>Hallowed Bolt Holy Explosion>Divine Runination Wish>Chant
