Bas Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 (edited) Hi! Can you guys recommend me the in your opinion best hacks for Fire Emblem series? I am looking for SNES/GBA/NDS, I need to play some stuff at my NDS-Flashcart :P Maybe also NES-hacks, but I first need to grab a NES emu for my NDS. I would prefer larger storylines, remakes or gameplay improvements (for instance, lower difficulty for FE 6/7). I am not so much a fan of short story hacks, but if they are good I might try them out as well. Also, the hacks shouldn't be demo versions or still have fatal errors, they should be developed to a good measure. Those two doesn't look such bad: http://www.romhackin...+Emblem&author= (Or those... http://www.feshrine.net/tactics/ http://www.feshrine....ng/patches.html http://www.freewebs....fe_reunion.html http://forums.grandb...opic,181.0.html <- That one really looks nice, uh. Maybe some of those: http://www.freewebs..../transhack.html Also a few: http://www.gamefaqs....tones/44941690) Well, I guess you saw all those links, now you might ask yourself: There you have plenty of h4ck5!! uh!! Yeah, but the problem is there isn't really a rating anywhere, so I need to differ good hacks from bad hacks. Languages: English or German. Thanks in advance! PS: I am also looking for FE6 (english translation), FE7 (European) and FE8 (European) all-complete savegames to read all the supports and being able to use the journeyman in a new game. But I haven't tried a search for those savegames yet, actually. But it isn't such urgent anyways, I first have to complete FE 6 & FE 8 once by myself (I am still playing both of them atm). // OK: http://www.gamefaqs.com/gba/563015-fire-emblem-fuuin-no-tsurugi/saves <- FE 6 http://www.gamefaqs.com/gba/468480-fire-emblem/saves <- FE 7 savegames http://www.gamefaqs.com/gba/921183-fire-emblem-the-sacred-stones/saves <- FE 8 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P-9YnUG0Jtw <- how to convert them Is there a difference between the european and all other savegames? Can I use the FE6 savegames for the translated-patched ROM? Edited January 10, 2011 by Bas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crimson Red Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 Is there a difference between the european and all other savegames? Can I use the FE6 savegames for the translated-patched ROM? Probably (a) small and insignificant difference(s), but I really don't know. And I'm pretty sure that the savegames won't work on the translated FE6. I noticed you reached an old site by the name of "Fire Emblem Shrine", I don't suggest you really hang around there. XP I personally think Tactics Universe is a good hack but I'm biased since I made it. Of the hacks on this page, Requiem of War and Shining Armor are okay. Fire Emblem: Sacred Contention (not listed but it's somewhere... should be in this forum, in fact) is another hack of mine. Arch has a hack called Elibian Nights that is very good, and MK404 and Ace have two completed reskin hacks by the names of "MK404's FE7 Hack" and "Devourer of Time" respectively... I think. That's about all I got to say. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deleted35362 Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 Play Tactics Universe if you want fresh new maps, characters, and story. Sacred Contention is a hack where you pick the FE7 or FE8 army and fight the other army. One chapter. Elibian nights attempts to tell what happened to people after FE7. Only 7 chapters I think. MK404 and Devourer of time have the same FE7 maps and events for the most part, but text and graphics are changed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trueblade Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 I agree with Tactics Universe, I found it to be one of the best hacks I have ever seen, I can't really say anything else except there are so few errors and the story is very well thought-out, if you want story, TU is for you, although I'm not sure how far the currently RELEASED patch goes, the best parts are yet to be released, IMO.

Viceroy Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 Sacred Contention is a waste of time. It's very easy and it's also clumsy, with the high volume of units that need moving. I wouldn't bother with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darros Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 FE4 Inflation, I heard that's wintastic. Also, do NDS hacks even exist? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CT075 Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 Rundown on FE4 Inflation vs. Binary: Inflation is just what it says on the tin, it inflates things. It's fun as hell, despite the difficulty being static as "roflstomp everything" until lategame. Binary is more balanced, actual difficulty for much of the game. It's what you play if you want a tactical challenge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ansem Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 I kinda sorta meant the Geonology hacks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crimson Red Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 It's very easy and it's also clumsy lolol easy games are much more fun than hard games that frustrate and annoy you and take so much time and effort to beat that you want to kill yourself, so I don't see why that's being used as an argument... 'clumsy' definitely isn't a word you use to describe a game... I think you mean that the game isn't balanced and is time-consuming, maybe even a little messy with the few remaining glitches that I never solved, those are some legit criticisms... Anyway... Also, do NDS hacks even exist? Yes, they do... but they are done by few, and few in number. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bas Posted January 13, 2011 Author Share Posted January 13, 2011 (edited) What is the binary hack? Link? Is it still worked on the FE4 advance hack? http://serenesforest...p?showtopic=603 The Elibe hack sounds nice, I think I will try it. I will wait a bit with TU I guess, since it seems it just develops better and better, reading your replies.

TheEnd Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 Binary is a group, technically. But people are usually thinking about their RM hack when they talk about Binary, out of habit. There's a pinned thread about their hacks in this subforum, it shouldn't be hard to find. Also, do NDS hacks even exist? Not aware of any FE hacks, but there sure are Pokemon ones so they're possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crimson Red Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 (edited) However a Japanese hack is in Japanese and since the first post requested English/German hacks I'm guessing that won't work for you, Bas.

Swordsalmon Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 If you're playing on an NDS flashcart, don't even bother looking for SNES hacks. None of the games are currently playable on its SNES emulators. For GBA recommendations, Tactics Universe is certainly the best English FE project. It currently goes from Prologue-Chapter 21, and it's very well-made. Otherwise, you might want to try out MK404 and Ghebfe (If you don't mind obscene humor and stupid difficulty).

So..mk404 und ghebfe are both extremly difficult? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShinKuma Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 I would say MK404' s hack is not that hard. GhebFE will make you go crazy at some points but can still be enjoyable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So..mk404 und ghebfe are both extremly difficult? What flashcart and DS model are you using? There's one DSi cart that has GBA emulation, but I'm very certain that no modern emulator can play SNES Fire Emblem titles yet. MK404 is very easy. Ghebfe is well... nearly unplayable, because of a broken Prologue. If you can RNG-manipulate your way through that, then the game is just very hard. And when you have a theif... then it starts getting easy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bas Posted January 16, 2011 Author Share Posted January 16, 2011 (edited) Supercard DSTWO. Which ROMs do I need? American, Japanese or European? Since it is depending on the hack...I am searching for the ROm version of elibian nights, shining armor, Tactics Universe, Tales of the Emblem & mk404. Does anyone has more information about encryption20's hack? http://www.serenesfo...cryption20.html Reunion...can you tell me a bit more about it? Same goes for Tales of the Emblem.

Crimson Red Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 (edited) EN is FE7 (U), Shining Armor is FE6 (J) *I THINK, not sure*, MK404 is FE7 (U) (i.e. which version of ROMs to patch over). SCDS2 is awesome and it should play all of these games fine. I haven't actually played any SNES games though so I can't confirm that its SNES emulator will work, but there is no harm in trying. Tactics Universe will work for the most part but it has a few problems and I haven't released an update patch soooo I'd wait until I do that before you play TU, if you're going to play it. EDIT: The below post doesn't warrant me making a new one, just gotta lol at the fail trolls XD Edited January 16, 2011 by Luffy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bas Posted January 23, 2011 Author Share Posted January 23, 2011 Hi! I tried to import FE 7 savegames to VBA in order to save them as .sav so I can use them with my flashcard. However, I get this error: Cannot import snapshot for FIREEMBLEME AE7E. Current game is FIREEMBLEMX AE7X. I tried two different savegames. I have the European ROM, the savegame might be from the US version...does anyone knows a savegame with all supports for FE 7? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please don't pretend that your definition of fun is the only one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
