Hello, these hacks offer interface & gameplay adjustments in FFV to make for a Cleaner experience.
Apply any of the “FFV Clean” patches to an *unheadered* copy of FFVJ.sfc– the checksum & CRC data are these:
File/ROM SHA-1: E937B54FFF99838E2E853697E4F559359AA91FD6

(Use https://www.romhacking.net/hash/ to check these values, and use the Tush utility available on rhdn to remove a header if needed.)
REBRANDED VARIANTS
Very Clean & Hella Clean are the new variants that add extra accessibility to the original FFV. Hella is the more extreme, with more effective Stealing and extra weapon equips for all Jobs; they both make previously weak weapons more powerful.
Control, Menu, Etc Improvements:
- use Menu button to pass turn in battle
- Dash in towns and dungeons with all jobs (Thief/Dash is faster)
- L & R buttons page scroll Item and Magic Menus
- Blue Magic has its own icon (Diamond)
- Many icons improved (some courtesy of tsushiy)
- Espers have Black/White/Time icons by effect type
- Many Ability, item and enemy names now match their appearance elsewhere in the FF series
- All Jobs and Abilities have descriptions
- The 12 items that work with !Mix command are more obvious
- Equipment Weight works the same as in Pixel Remaster edition (it’s 2x more impactful in reducing Agility now)
- MSU-1 chip support added for enhanced soundtracks (not included, DYOR)
1. Clean Battle Improvements:
- Berserk doesn’t merely Attack: can work with Jump, Mug, SwdSlap, Dance, Aim, RapidFire(!)
- “Surge” Time spell replaces pointless “Drag”; free to cast and restores 12 MP
- Check works as described, showing elemental weakness
- SwdSlap hits like a normal Attack and may stun the target; it doesn’t remove Sleep, Confuse, or Control
- Images can stack up to 3 (still 2 per cast or Ability)
2. Very Clean Battle Improvements, the above plus…
- Harps, Bells, Rods, Whips, Knives, Spears all do more damage
- Axes, Katana, Hammers, even some Knives work with MagicSword
- Spears and some other new options work with Double Grip; Dbl.Grip combos with Jump for additional damage
- SwdSlap is currently non functional in this version, it’s merely a regular attack (fix coming soon)
3. Hella Clean Battle Improvements, the above plus…
- Stealing is significantly more effective
- All Jobs except Monk & Mime gain at least one more weapon they can wield
- SwdSlap is currently non functional in this version, it’s merely a regular attack (fix coming soon)
Bugfixes: Kiss of Blessings, PowerDrink, HP Drain limit and many other glitches were properly addressed by open source patches. Please read the changelog to see them all, and for all other details.
Very Clean & Hella Clean are intended to provide less restrictive versions of the game, and will continue development as forks of the main Clean project. They are made possible thanks to Modoh’s “Weapon Formula Tweaks” & Gens’ “Improved Steal” work.
For a full list of the UX/UI, Item/Magic, Job System & Text adjustments, please consult the included readme file.
