FFIV - Main Theme (Overworld Map), Mario Paint

In celebration of the release of FFIV for the DS, I decided to make a version of the Main Theme. The main theme plays during the overworld map, and shortly during the beginning's opening CG.

This was done by ear, by listening to the FFIV:DS OST's version of the song.
(So that way, maybe I could say it's kind of different than the other versions that exist already. =P)
I really like this song, and the mood it creates really fits FFIV.
You'll see in this video that I had to compensate for many octaves due to things being lower or higher than the range of notes I'm allowed to place. =P Overall, I had fun creating this piece; it's really been a long time since I last uploaded something, since I was on vacation over summer. XP

Let me know what you think!

Random retarded question because I am sure I could figure this out if I looked long enough... how do you make the fade out last longer than a couple of seconds? My Windows Movie Maker can't seem to answer that for me :<

I've already commented once on this song but I'll say it again. This is still freaking awesome.

I use Virtual Dub and a "FadeFX" filter that I found online for it. (I don't remember exactly where I got it from, but the author of it is "Scott Elliott"--hopefully that helps)

There one boss that has totally changed was Dr. L that he changed into a monster ( I think) and he reverse the attack

I forgot he cast "reverse something" if you hit him you're healing him so instead you have to attack yourself or who ever has a low HP ( about to die) and he cast again to reverse to DMG them. So time yourself what he cast before you confirm your attack.

FFIV DS is definitely the hardest incarnation of FFIV, especially with the way several boss battles got re-worked.

i have the original for the GBA and it's really not that different except that the DS version is WAY more easier.
