Contains all features as listed in the overview. * UnlockRetry&GiftModes.IPS (by Artemis) This allows players to start a game in Retry Mode (4x EXP/gold) or Gift Mode (Start on Gruberik Island with the ability to swap your teammates for the Ancient Cave) without needing to unlock them first. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This is just a simple mod applied atop Artemis' Frue Lufia, making certain lore terms consistent with Lufia I Restored and Lufia III Complete. This also works with Spekkio Lufia, somehow! ==================================================================================================== ==================================================================================================== Overview ======== GENERAL: - All enhancements and bug fixes present in Frue Lufia are also here. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- GRAPHICS: - 8x8 menu and 8x16 dialogue fonts changed to those used in my Lufia I and III projects. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- TEXT: - Item, enemy, and ability names are now cohesive with Lufia I Restored and Lufia III Complete. ==================================================================================================== ==================================================================================================== Changelog ========= v7.0-T (Jul 27 2024) - Egg Dragon location reverted to "Small Shrine to Dragon Egg" due to issues with the location label of Dragon Mountain. (Thanks to CanoeFan for reporting.) - Hotfix 1 Jul 27 '24 for Frue/Spekkio compatibility. - Hotfix 2 Jul 29 '24 for missed all caps text and checksum correction. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- v6.0-T (Nov 9 2022) - Updated for compatibility with Frue/Spekkio Lufia v6.0. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- v5.2-T (Nov 6 2022) - Bundled "Unlock Retry and Gift Mode" by Artemis, which allows players to launch Retry or Gift Modes without needing to beat the game. - Shrine of Daos is now Doom Fortress. (Not quite enough room for Fortress of Doom.) - Daos' infamous line is now consistent with its Lufia I iteration. - Removed "Shrine of Daos" location label associated with its map. (Was unable to change the label properly, so this compromise was instated.) - Narvick residents no longer refer to Doom Island as Sky Island. (Lore-wise, it fits, but I don't think established names should change.) - Darbi's Mini Devil form is now known as Mini-Devil. (Consistency with Lufia I.) - Menu labels now use mixed-case. - Labels for post-game Results screen updated for clarity. - Revised several characters in the 8x8 (menu) and 8x16 (dialogue) fonts for readability. - Item name changes: Note: This is comparing the name in Frue/Spekkio Lufia to the name in Trilogizer. Changes from retail that are shared between both are not listed.
