Online Map Viewer

Hello everyone! Recently I've started tinkering with this wonderful game, and now made a web-based map viewer for the PSX version. I had some troubles running map2gl on Linux, and was also curious about the various file formats the game uses, so I wanted to make a simple, cross platform and (hopefully) user friendly viewer.

You can find it here: mmatyas.github.io/fft/mapviewer. Give it a try!



How it works:

You will need the PSX disc in BIN format (but not in .ECM.BIN).

  • If you only have the physical disc, most CD writer programs can also create a backup from it into a CUE/BIN pair (eg. ImgBurn I think).
  • If you have an ECM.BIN file, you can use ECM Decompressor to uncompress it.

After that, just drag and drop the the disc file into the page and browse the maps!

Love what you're seeing? https://supportus.ffhacktics.com/ 💜 it's really appreciated

Anything is possible as long as it is within the hardware's limits. (ie. disc space, RAM, Video RAM, processor, etc.)

Love that it reads from the image so you can view everything quickly + any custom maps you've made! Nice work!
