Final Fantasy VI - Enjoyable Music Glitch!

[danyetman]

The reason this happens is because the map data for those areas 'swaps' or 'refreshes' incorrectly due to a numeric terrain-type variable within FFVI. In the World of Balance, the area around Narshe's Encounter Index (EI) is 10. The Veldt has a unique manner of managing Encounters, however, due to the fact that you can fight monsters from all over in it - it uses a random-number generator to choose an EI, which also effects how the music transitions into the combat setting. 1/2

@danyetman That area around Narshe that you discovered has the same Veldt EI, but contains only the enemy data for that specific area, ie, EI #10. The random number generator therefore cycles about a 32/256 chance of entering combat with the "Veldt Combat" value enabled, so the music transitions in and overrides the standard battle music.

u can do this on the veldt in the world of balance on the upper north part corner i believe that will have the same background and music playing. I cannot remember if the world of ruin has the same spot is still available.

I knew about this one...

I like this glitch! The regular battle music isn't as cool. Thank God the boss battle music makes up for it.

Standard battle theme is one of the weaker ones, not nearly as good as in FF4, 5, 7 or 9.

@ComradeSephiroth in my opinion, the final fantasy i battle theme is the best. but i also think that final fantasy vi's battle theme is way better than 7 or 9-although I have to admit that 4 and 5 are better.
