Fly Epoch in Zeal 12,000 BC

How it was done: (contains some spoilers)

After loading the game from the save point in the Lavos Shell, I went into the portal to do a little experimenting. First, I put Robo and Marle (you might need Lucca, depending on who you picked when you entered the factory) in my party, and headed to the 2300 AD Factory (It had been complete). I walked all the way down to the bottom floor of the factory with the sealed doors. This is where PAR comes in. I put on Walk Through Walls (C0884749 or C09B47E5) and moved through the sealed doors. To my suprise, when I pushed the reactor button, the alarm sounded.

I turned Walk Through Walls off and proceeded back to the point where you fought the R Series. I had to fight them again. Of course, Robo was damaged.

Now this is where the game gets a little buggy, so be careful. After Robo is repaired by Lucca in Proto Dome, the original team of four was taken to the end of time. All the portals were accessable,  but the Epoch and Skeppio were not. Also, nobody else was at EoT besides Gaspar and Magus. Gaspar also gave that long Lavos speech, instead of the usual. So I through myself into the 12,000 BC portal.

To my suprise, all of 12,000 was restored. (From this point on, I believe you can head back to the end of time and then to Proto Dome to get the Epoch wherever you parked it before you entered the factory)

For laughs, I put Magus in my party, and when to the palace (Janus wasn't at Enhasa). It was the point in the palace where Schala left to open the crest door. When I went to the Throne Hall, Schala was opening the door (the door was already open), so I followed. I had to fight the Golem again. Ultimately, I was booted out of 12,000 BC (strangely, when Schala freed me, Magus still stood in the jail thing, unmoving! He also didnt fall to the ground when Dalton imprisoned the party).

So, when I got to the end of time, I returned to 2300 AD, got the epoch where I had parked it before I entered the factory, and flew back to 12,000 BC. I was able to fly around the 12,000 BC map.


If you follow these steps, you might be able to do some other events all over again. 
Unfortunately, there is no way to fly the Epoch around the Zeal Continent. I always wanted to go to that blue triangle place.
