well here are some hints. tips,

Black jack mini-game

First, complete the game. Then wait for the Crystal Theme to play, then hit: R2, L1, R2, R2, Up, X, Right, Circle, Down, Triangle, L2, R1, R2, L1, Square, Square, then hit start after the noise to activate the blackjack mini game. Now, you can show-off your blackjack skills in the FF9 game!




How to change the costumes

When in the ice cavern if you beat the giant monster that the little man summons before the man without using magic the man will give up and will give you an item and run away when you get to deli village and in the hotel you can get changed in to a different costume.



Ozma : FFIX's Omega Weapon

message: Think the final boss, Necron is a push over??? Wait till you have a taste of Ozma, the most powerful creature in FFIX. You may have to complete some side quests first. First, you have a gold chocobo to have access to Chocobo's Air Garden. Go there and ride Choco to the back islet. When you examine the eidolon grave, Mene warns you about something dangerous there and you get a few chances to back out. So fight it when you're ready. You may need the Ultima weapon and Ragnarok. Don't forget to equip Antibody and Clear-Headed and armour that protects Shadow damage. Ozma is weak against wind an holy. Lastly, this boss got 4 great items to steal. I'm not going to spoil the fun but I tell you they're very rare and worth the few turns spending to steal.



Final Fantasy 3 music

After returning to Gaia from Terra, purchase the Doga's artifact and Une's mirror from the auction in Treno. Go to Black Mage Village and speak to the Black Mage standing in front of the phonograph inside the inn. This causes the music to change to FFIII. This special music will continue till you leave the village.



Renaming Characters

Tired of that stupid name, Zidane??? Don't press that reset button because there is an easier way. You can obtain a card called, Namingway Card, from Mario during the card tournament in Treno or inside Kuja's room during the sequence in the Desert Palace. Take the card to Daguerreo (South-West of wind shrine where there a bridge leading into a cave in the mountains) and talk to the man roaming the library on the mid level. He will ask to see the card and then be inspired to raname your characters for you.



Frog Catching

Running out of frogs to catch??? The trick is to leave a male and a female frog in the pond. They will then reproduce to have more frogs for you to catch. By leaving the gold grog with the male and female frog, reproduction is faster. Also when you catch 99 frogs, Quale will challenge you to a battle.



Acquiring the best weapons

Steiner's excalibur 2:

Just get to the terrace in memoria in 12 hours(from the beginning of the game) and search the platform for excalibur 2!

Steiner's excalibur:

Go to Treno and auction for the magical fingertip. Then, go to Daguerreo and talk to the old man on the highest level of the library(near the counter which offers rest). He will tell you his story then handing you the Excalibur.

Eiko's best flute:

In memoria, get to the place where a memory of Zidane's shows Alexandria being destroyed. Head towards that direction of the castle. Then search the sides of the path. This will allow you to find the flute.

Zidane's Ultima weapon:

This I'm not sure. Anyhow, play the chocobo's game first. After this use dead pepper on where shimmering island used to be. You should be able to get the ultima weapon.



Where all the Settazzio are Found

Aries
Dali's windmill
Taurus
Behind Treno's item shop in the slums
Gemini
Throw 10 gil into the fountain at Treno's
entrance 13 times
Cancer
Behind the overturned cart near the
entrance of Burmecia
Leo

the party to Alexandria Harbor
Virgo

Libra

Aquarius

Castle
Pisces

Ophiuchus
Collect all 12, then search where Scorpio
was found

Then return to trento and give them to that lady by the nobles. If you give her all 13 she gives you the hammer. If you have the hammer at the end of the game you see a hidden movie.



Morrids coffee

The three coffees for Morrid are in these locations:
MOCCHA COFFEE:Next to the restorative spring in South Gate where you see the Tantalus Crew in an ATE
KIRMAN COFFEE:In Eiko's kitchen, Madain Sari
BURMAN COFFEE:In the card tournament section,go to Dali. Search the desk in the mayors house until the kid says 'zzz'. Then search the stove for the 'Mayors Key'. Use this on the door in the windmill and search the chest twice for some gil and the coffee.

Take the coffee to Morrid before you go to Terra and the 'Mini Prima-Vista' will turn up in the Tantalus hideout in Lindblum. It will raise your treasure hunter rank. You can find out your rank by talking to the 4-armed man in Daguerreo.When you get to rank S he will give you the 'Rank S award' key item.



What is the Hammer for

There are two things you need the hammer for
1) to get the secret video at the end of the game
2) use it at the great synthesist hades to get some cool items

to find the hammer find all 13 stellazio coins and queen stella will give it to you.



Reaching Ozma

To reach Ozma you also have to see every friendly monster (lady bug,mu,green yeti,nymph etc. After you find then all go to the island in the mddlr of all the continents (where that big mountain is) an go in the forest and look for freindly yan. Then go to the air garden and get ready for a HARD battle



Get Hippauls rare cards at start

At the start of the game when you are Vivi go to the ticket booth area and speak with Hippaul. He will talk about his 3 precious cards. Before you get your ticket stamped go to the steeple and climb to the top. Instead of climbing away you will be able to pull a rope. Pull it and the bell will ring then a chest will fall down and you will receive the cards.



Getting Excalibur 1 + 2

When u are at treno go to the auction house and buy the magical fingertips. then go to the library and give it to the old man. then u will have Excalibur

To get Excalibur 2 u have to beat hades late in the and then go around the open the chest and u will have Steiner's strongest weapon.



Killing boss

Are you stuck on the boss in the Lifa Tree? (First time you go there)if you are, just get Eiko to use her LIFE spell on the boss and he will die straight away! he is hard if you try to beat him normally

Easy way to defeat ozma:

my way is very easy you even don't need to get your character's level very hight lv 60,70 or even 50 is good enough.

Before the match:

if you want to defeat Ozma you need Steiner,Zidane,Freya and Quina in your party members, you have to get ultima weapon for Zidane, there is no need for any excalibur for steiner because ragnarok is enough either, equip demon's mail on both of Steiner and Freya,demon's vest for zidane and pumice piece for quina, make shure every body have got auto life clear headed,antibody,bright eyes equiped in there ability,and the match will be easier if you equip bandit,mug,master thief on Zidanes ability either.

In the match:

keep stealing by Zidane untle you take every thing Ozma have then keep using Thievery, Freya use Dragon's crest, Steiner use shock and quina use Mighty Guard and auto life for every one dies,if ozma use dreaded Curse let Quina use his Angel's snack. keep using Zidans thievery,Freyas Dragon's crest,Steiners shock and keep giving your charactars auto life if it has gone by Quinas auto life and if nobody need auto life or Mighty Guard use frog drop, blieve me you won't need alot of time to defat Ozma by thes way.

is that for PS1? for so where do i get it?

[DarkMagician]

2 Player Mode!:
First, pause the game (so the menu comes up). Next, go to the CONFIG option and go to battle control. Set it to custom and push X. You now control who second player plays!

How to get the Grand Dragon Card:
Just defeat the Grand Dragon with your level is 71 and up or you will be killed.


How to use Doomsday to Your Advantage:
You can learn Vivi's magic doomsday with the mace of Zeus (it can be find in memoria). When you cast it and the huge dark meteor impacts, it will damage your enemies and your party members by 9999. But if you equip your party with something that absorbs darkness based magic (like pumice piece, ninja gear, or egoist's armlet) it will restore your characters' HP and damage your enemies by 9999, making doomsday the most powerfull magic to YOUR advantage.
