Access

Things you will need:

• Download a hex editor such as HxD. Any hex editor will do.

• For best results, start a new game as Jude and quick save after first controlling Jude.

• Decrypt your save file with something like Brute Force Save Data.

• Go to offset 0x4270 in your decrypted save file with your hex editor and paste the Map: information in these sections there.

• Go to offset 0x4290 in your decrypted save file with your hex editor and paste the Coordinates: information in these sections there.

• Save your edits and re-encrypt your save file.

Make sure you overwrite the data at these offsets.

Unused Song

Imen from Tales of Eternia is repeated a total of seven times in the game's files. It probably served as placeholder.

Regional Differences

In the Japanese version, the cutscene where Agria falls down shows her sticking up her middle finger. In the international versions, she points with her index finger instead.
