News

We've upgraded some more parts of the page so you guys can have better data and more access to it. Here's a brief list.

• Added a link to i90's expert version of FF6. CoN created a small-download patch.
• There's a new CoN poll on the main site, too. It's not terribly exciting, but knowing what screen resolution you use is helpful to me in designing new features.
• We modified the maps sections. You now have a bigger map to use, and the locations with no shops are greyed out so you don't bother clicking them. You also get a pretty map that matches each site skin, and for FF4, the stores correctly display the difference between FF4PSX and FF2US stores. These changes apply to Final Fantasy IV, Final Fantasy V, and Final Fantasy VI.
• There's a big one that we're proud of, too. For the Final Fantasy VI section, we've developed an extensive crossreferencing ability that not only will show you all the places you can find each weapon, armor, relic, etc. in the game, it also links you directly to the enemy or location from which you get it. It uses the CoN-exclusive "W technology" to put more information at your fingertips than any other FF site. We plan to slowly roll these features out to every game we cover. To see an example, take a visit to the Final Fantasy VI weapons page.

Hope you enjoy the new stuff.

We have a new fanfiction by SpacemanSpiff, now in the FF4 section. It's called Reflect and Reveal, and takes place just around the beginning of the game.

Please visit our FF4 fanfiction section to read it.

In further fanfiction news, we now have a new FFVI fanfic by Zephir, titled "Diary of a Man... Long not a Soldier."

The focus of this fanfic is a soldier in the Imperial Army. His story starts before the events that we know as Final Fantasy VI. It's a nice one-shot fic written in the form of a journal and/or inner monologue.

Please visit our FF6 fanfiction section to read it.

Through the last few days, we've made several changes and additions to the site that you might not notice right away. So, to make it easier, I've put together a list of what we've done:

• There is a new CoNPoll on the main site, dealing with FF12.
• We've added a new affiliate, Square Sound, who specializes in music from Square games.
• Added two tools to edit DexDrive-format savegames for FFT.
• Added four tools to edit FF6 ROMs.
• Added a selector in your forum controls so you can display your gender in your profile.
• Added twenty-four new fanarts from Kobayashi, Narratorway, and Kame.
• Finally disabled signature images in the forums (OK, so only the staff will cheer about that).

Hope you enjoy all the new stuff!

I'm happy to announce that we have a new addition to our humble FFIV Fanfiction section. There is a new fanfic by SpacemanSpiff, his first for the CoN, called Beneath the Mask.

It is an in-game fanfiction, and I encourage you all to check it out if you have not done so yet.

Remember, we accept fanfiction submissions for FF4, FF5, FF6 and FFT, so if you have one you'd like to submit, make your way to the Site Submissions forums. If you're not a writer yourself, you can help out the authors by reading and commenting on fanfiction, as well as fanart.

Alexa.com, one of the largest monitors of traffic and relational links online, has a really sorry set of data for CoN. I'd like for you all to help us out a bit by writing some reviews for the site. I know a lot of you like the site a lot, and a short review might help us garner some more new traffic.

If you're interested, it's easy. Just visit the review section for the site and submit! Your submissions will go up in a week or so.

Please post here to let us know you've done it, thanks!
