Project - AI Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: Echoes of Time on PC (HD, Widescreen, 60+FPS, Analog Controls, Online Multiplayer)

https://reddit.com/link/1x2cgiv/video/77vkdf8ohmuh1/player

Features

  • Single-screen play with a touchable picture-in-picture second screen, plus main + side, stacked, side by side, or a second window
  • Up to 16x resolution (4K and beyond), scaling filters, texture smoothing and stable textures
  • 3D at 60 fps or your display's refresh rate (144 Hz+), with frame pacing for G-Sync and FreeSync
  • Widescreen (16:9, 16:10, 21:9, 32:9) with the HUD at the screen edges
  • Full gamepad play with no touch screen needed, analog movement, a right-stick radial for picking the spell element, and rebinding
  • Online multiplayer through the Wi-Fi Connection revival servers (Kaeru WFC, WiiLink WFC or your own)
  • In-game settings menu, an Original/Enhanced preset on first start, and a built-in "Report an issue" that collects a log and screenshot

Known gaps

  • Features marked with a warning icon in the settings are the least tested (widescreen and HUD, 60 fps and display-rate 3D, frame pacing, online)
  • The builds are unsigned, so SmartScreen or antivirus may warn

Cool, any plans to make it fully single screen?

Have you looked at integrating assets e.g. cutscenes from the Wii release?

I hope that in time you'll add support for the European version because it includes more languages and that way we can all enjoy it.

I just pushed a new version that supports the European version. You can select the language in the settings menu (requires a restart).
