  1. With some luck that banner thing will happen and we'll have an "official" translation.
  2. Just gonna ask, are you gonna use Pugi in this translation, or the more accurate Bhuj? I feel like Pugi has become this untouchable sacred cow of a name, despite the fact that we have seen the weapon name used in other games and translated into Bhuj(which is an actual weapon).
  3. I've tried to test which villager picks are the best for a Low Turn Count run, and Archers or Cavaliers are pretty much the way to go on Alm's early route, alongside at least one mage(you need a Mage with at least 8 atk to beat the Leather Shield Merc fast). They get to do combat so much earlier. I dunno if the Merc line makes up for lost turns later on, but Archer is actually a great pick for efficient play.
  4. I've hacked a copy of FE7 quite a bit, and I used the Tutorial killer ups to get those events out of the way. However, it might be some mistake I've done, or perhaps I had a bad version of the the tutorial slayer, but I'm currently stuck on chapter 7 as defeating Heinz(the win condition) doesn't end the chapter. How do I fix this?
  5. I want to either change Formshift to work like Wildheart, or replace it as a class skill by Wildheart(the version you can revert from). My hex editing skills and knowledge is very lacking, so I wanted to ask if anyone knows which values exactly I would need to change. Adding wildheart as a class skill to the other laguz would be neat as well, but my main question is the above
  6. This is just not true- Nintendo fans, and I say that as one, tend to lean towards censorship MUCH more than other groups and especially when Nintendo does it(because as annoying as the nintendrone comments from fanboys of other franchises are, there is a modicum of truth to them- some Nintendo fans are willing to bend over backwards to justify nintendo's decisions, whether they be censorhip or badly thought out online setup- Brawl got a lot of defense despite being nigh unplayable on average internet). Also, a good chunk of anime fans hate what they call "waifu garbage"(never mind if it actually is garbage) and rag on about how it should never be included in anything ever or taken out of it, so yeah, it's not really true for them either.* Anime Fans and Video gamers come from all political directions, from extreme right-wing to extremely authoritarian left-wing, and at both ends, and even for some in the middle censorship is seen as a benefit. It's not at all rare among gamers to be pro-censorship. Also, "If you consider that point, the fact that there is such a wide support for the idea of the localization changing and even removing things is a very good indicator that it's IS who should be ashamed. ...or at least extremely embarrassed." No, not really. Censorship is always used on so called "uncomfortable" things, so this is absolutely the same stuff that always show up. I've seen the same scenario dozens of times, this is hardly rare, and there is nothing special about these cries for censorship, they are old hat. *A lighter form of this hate for "waifu-pandering" is usually seen in the FE fanbase, and you yourself show signs of being sorta in that camp with how you feel it changes what the series is about, despite the fact that the games play mostly the same, still feature stock archetype characters(FE7 was blatantly like that for example), it's just that more content is in there now. Some say it's at the cost of story, but FE was NEVER particularly good in that department. It had rare flashes of brilliance, but that was it. At worst you could argue about the credibility of the franchise.
  7. I'm searching for enemy growths and stats for this game, but they aren't on the FE1 section.
  8. Ah, I see. Anyone have a tutorial of some kind. ^^;
  9. I can find cmp, and RN, just not anywhere close to eachother. :P
  10. Going through the FE7 data with a Hex Editor now, can't find it.
  11. This has been solved. Nightmare Editor 2 works, it was just a slight issue with Java screwing up. On a side note... any way to remove the weapon triangle(that's not extremely complicated)? Or will I just have to deal with it?
  12. Hi! What was that Anouleth quote about Makalov and Joshua you used to have sigged?

    Fellow Makalov fan here. ;-)

      I don't understand why people like Joshua and dislike Makalov's personality. Both have a gambling addiction, but Joshua avoids the consequences of being obsessed by gambling by continually cheating. Makalov actually has to deal with the consequences of his actions, on the other hand.

      that is the quote, sorry if i got to this late, i removed myself from any contact from this site until today

    Legend of Cao Cao is a turn-based strategy game (akin to Fire Emblem) released by Koei in 1998. As it was never released in English, we have translated the game into English (from the official Chinese release) and making the patched version available here.

    Hello! I saw your Three Kingdoms romhack thread, and while it's sad you seem to have abandoned- for reasonable reasons... I might have a decent replacement!

    http://the-scholars.com/viewtopic.php?t=18359

  15. While this thread is still active, another question: Does anyone here have a Nightmare Editor that works in Linux? I try to start up the program using wine(windows emulator), but it just doesn't load...
  16. Is this at all possible? I'm relatively new to hacking, and I intended to try and hack FE7 to resemble FE1. I know I can't do much about the dual RNG, but still. The Attack Speed is the most interesting- is there any way to change the formula from 4 to 1 more speed?
  17. Comparing the two pictures side by side, there's a notable difference in bulk. If it weren't for his very feminine face, Hero King Marth could hardly be said to be outright feminine. Almost no hip size. Relatively thick and muscular legs. Noticeably broader and more muscular arms. His upper body is actually more built than it's usually been portrayed as before, it's just very covered up. Sure, he's not really masculine, but outside the face, feminine is stretching it. Meanwhile, "Masked Marth" has wider hips, thin and not that muscular calves and less muscular and thinner thighs than Hero King. Also rather spindly arms. Pretty neat that they look so different.
  18. And those bows alone are broken enough on him. Also, I'd argue Thundersword Alm has comparable combat with Sigurd (until Tyrfing) even before Alm promotes. And Ephraim is in a similar boat. He stomps everything from the moment he joins your team, and javelins are absolute murder when he wields them early on. Reginleif is incredible. Hector can't brag about this due to his low initial speed, though his defense is neat. FE10 Ike would qualify, if not for absolute lolres. Top 3(unitwise): Sigurd, Ephraim, Alm(no individual order) Personality-wise: Harder. Gonna think a bit on this one.
  19. Yeah, I think we've established that the Swordmaster owns the Assassin at equal levels, and that the Assassin's only strong point is faster level growth, both with silencer and without.
  20. Exept, this is FE6. Which I know. I simply showed some of the results I got from something this thread inspired me to do.
  21. Yeah, General Gilliam is better than GK Gilliam. must have thought a bit wrong about that one. I still stand by going Paladin over GK, as long as speed isn't screwed. Though Amelia is short on MT so she just may need those Axes. But that's simply because I like having a mobile team, so I may be a little biased.
  22. And thus, Berserker Ross gets a level loss compared to Hero Ross. Now Hero Ross not only wins defense, but will probably have the offensive edge, too. And Warrior is not in anyway near equal to Hero. Hero is faster and gets a much better backup weapon, while being equally strong. If it were 8 move, like the Nomad Troopers got, that might have been the case. However, he gets only 7 move(lol at rangers- nerfed Nomad Troopers). 1 move will never ever beat out that 1-2 range. Garcia sucks whatever you make him, lol. But he is a lot better as a Hero than a Warrior. 1 more HP, equal strength, 2 more speed, 1 less res, 1 less def. Loses two con, but his con is already really high. Gains C swords, alowing him to equip Killing Edges immediately, as opposed to Warrior, which is stuck with E Bows and Iron Bows. Hero Garcia murders Warrior Garcia. Gerik and Garcia both want to go Hero. Ross goes either Berserker or Hero.
  23. Recruit->Cavalier->Paladin. compared to cav->GK it loses 2 HP, 1 skl and def and 1 con as well as axes, but gains 2 extra move. I consider that extra move worth more in this situation. Hero gets Swords, which can mean a lot for durability reasons(lol 15 extra avoid) and that extra hit may come in handy now and then. That +2 defense also goes into that. There's also the issue of Colm wanting that early Ocean Seal to go Rogue. The berserker do win offense by quite a bit though, as long as he's not fighting a swordsman without a reaver weapon. Mage Knight Ewan equals Druid Ewan in mag, just saying. It's still a horrible promotion choice. Frankly, Druid Ewan is overrated. He beats out Summoner Ewan slightly in combat(1 mt, 4 or 5 crit), and only if he uses thunder(he still loses hit). If both uses Flux, the Summoner has better offense. And Summoner Flux beats the Druid out if he uses anything else than Thunder/Excalibur+it gets the summons. Thunder is a very slight win, while Excalibur is a big one. However, that Excalibur won't be used until creature campaign, which means it's 1 hp,1mt, 4 or 5 crit, 1 def vs Summons+1 res and 2 hit. The extra utility from summons>that rather minor stat advantage. However, if you're gonna hand Ewan a Body Ring, he wants to go Druid for Elfire and thus a more definite win battlewise. Neither Sage nor Mage Knight really come that close to the summoner. The Mage Knight has 3 less AS and only wins mt with thunder(unless he wants to weigh himself down) by 1. Sage loses 2 AS and 1 con and 1 mag. Even with Thunder, it only ties attack and wins by a small bit in crit. And since Ewan is gonna be underlevelled anyway, why not give him a class where he doesn't have to worry as much for his defenses, and on top of that gets an extra 10 xp for each Phantom?
  24. Better stats because of the class he promotes to do indeed exist, promotional gains lol. But those AREN'T better stats, not even in promotional gains: Level 20/1 Bishop Moulder: HP: 34 Mag: 12 Skill: 15 Spd: 15 Def: 9 Res: 11 Level 20/1 Sage Moulder: HP: 35 Mag: 11 Skill: 14 Spd: 15 Def: 9 Res: 12 As you can see, the only stats the are above Bishop Moulder's are HP and Resistance, but just by +1. That isn't having better stats, you know. Slayer totally makes up for his low magic, despite anima having slightly more Mt it doesn't make him much stronger. You'll also see the game is filled with monsters slightly after he promotes. Sage Moulder is just a waste of Elfire when you could buy him a normal Lightning as a Bishop and kill anything along your path, it's also a waste when you could have Sage Artur who makes a much better Sage due to higher magic and resistance, he will also promote earlier. Wow, you're right. Must have looked at the wrong promotion gains. But that instant Elfire is worth a lot more than you think. It has no AS loss, and allows him to do 6 more damage versus lightning against non-monsters- 12 if he doubles. Lightning with slayer only beats Elfire out by 2. You're better off using shine, which has 4 less MT than Elfire but gets 8 more mt than Elfire if slayer is active. I still want to see a list of the enemies. If there's very few enemies that he'd be useful with Elfire against, he's better off as a Bishop.
