How to hack the battle speed to always be fast regardless of auto battle

I was able to track down how the Auto Battle flag is used in the game, and there are two separate bits of code looking at it. One controls the battle speed and the other controls the automatic input. By hacking just the code that controls the battle speed, we can get fast battles regardless of whether the Auto Battle flag is set.

Note that the values to search for are slightly different for each Pixel Remaster game, so I'll add separate guides for the other games.

Edit GameAssembly.dll in a hex editor

(Updated 3/12/22)

First, open GameAssembly.dll in a hex editor. I use HxD.

Search for the hex values:

E8 5A 72 00 00 84 C0



Replace with the values:

E8 5A 72 00 00 3C FF



And that's it! Save the dll, and play with always fast battles!

PS. Check out my similar guide for FF1 Pixel Remaster for additional notes for future hackers.

Wouldn't it be better to just use Cheat Engine?

Is there any way to make it faster than that? Like Final Fantasy II

The September 22nd update seems to have broken this hack. Any tips on how to find the new offset?

Hi, need update :o)

Great work! Thank you.
Do you think you can find a way to permanently hide the mini-map?

This is awesome, although it's gonna take a bit to adjust. I'm very used to always enabling auto-battle after doing my inputs and disabling it right before my next turn. Thank you for the guide!

It does not disable achievements.

[Abougadaba]

Will this disable achievements?

This trick makes the game feel great! Big reccommend
