DQMJ1 ROM Editor

An unofficial modding tool / ROM editor for Dragon Quest Monsters Joker 1.

Currently only supports the North American and Japanese releases of the game, but I may add support for the European release at some point.

Features

Currently supports modifying:

• Encounter tables (enemies, bosses, starter monsters, gift monsters)
• Skill sets
• Events (cutscenes, overworld areas) [experimental]

Installation

Note that the ROM editor currently only supports Windows. I have plans to add support for Linux, and may be able to add Mac support if there is interest.

• Download the .msi installer file from the releases page
• Double click on the .msi installer to run it
• Follow the instructions in the installer
• Run the application from your desktop search bar (dqmj1_rom_editor)

Keyboard shortcuts

• Ctrl + s / Cmd + s - Save mod
• Ctrl + e / Cmd + e - Export patched ROM
