This mod is a New Game Plus (NG+) save file with everything maxed and unlocked without breaking any quest or storyline.

Features:
  • You start at the very beginning with the opening FMV, so nothing is skipped.
  • All GF are locked so that it doesn't break the story or your requirements to draw them from bosses. But all of them are already pre-junctioned to "everyone" so everyone will have access to all the command and support abilities as well as being able to summon all of the GFs at the same time from the beginning. No more choosing which GF to junction to whom. They're all junctioned to everyone and learned all abilities. All GFs also have maxed compatibility with everyone. Once you obtained the GFs, you will then have access to the Menu abilities. A separate Optional file with all the GFs unlocked from the start is available.
  • Quezacotl now swapped menu abilities with Tonberry for Call Shop, Familiar, Haggle, and  Sell-High. All the shops are now unlocked as well, so you can immediately access any shops anywhere from the start of the game after obtaining Quezacotl instead of waiting to obtain Tonberry.
  • All Items are available at the maximum 127 units stocked. This allows you to fight against Diablos and obtain Doomtrain at the start of the game.
  • All characters and GF are at Level 100 and have maximum bonus stats.
  • All characters are using their strongest ultimate weapons from the start.
  • All character limit breaks are unlocked.
  • Magics are pre-junctioned to multiple stats simultaneously at the highest value to max out your stats. This includes Holy Elem Atk, with Ultima Elem Def for a complete 100% absorption of all elemental damage. While also having Pain Status Attack to inflict 127% Poison, Darkness, and Silence for every attack. While they are almost immune to all status changes from the multiple Stat Def from Holy and Reflect. Changing this magic junction could reset the other junctions, so it's probably better to leave the junctioned stats as is if you want to keep it intact.
  • The most powerful magic spells are stocked to all characters (including Apocalypse that you can cast), and they're all at 127 units stocked which applies to all the junctioned magic stats. An alternative optional file with 255 magic stocked is available to download which will Max out your stats and make you completely immune to all status defense changes, and combined with the EVA 30% ability, will make your Evasion stat at 100%. But using the 255 magic variant will prevent you from using magic in battle, but you can still use restorative magic spells outside of combat. So the choice is yours.
  • You will have every single Triple Triad card stocked in your deck at 127 units and all your Rare unique cards are with Squall. So no more chasing the Queen of Cards all around the world and you're free to use your most powerful deck of cards at your disposal from the start of the game.
  • Triple Triad rules are now standardised from the start of the game. Every single region has all the rules active except for Random, and the trade rule is ALL. It's still subject to the game's mechanics once you start playing where the trade rule can change and the regions playing rules can change too, but the default start will have everything set up as mentioned above.
  • Every character and enemy and magic seen and scanned once.
  • Max Gil.
  • Boko's stats and Level are maxed out, but still locked until you obtained the chocobo.
