Dandragon Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 (edited) So I got the brilliant idea to do a hack consisting of the people of the chat room here...until i realized the cast was too small... So I made this thread. All I need from the people of serenes forest is to post characters that they would want to represent them. Class, Name, Gender (if you want to be all like that and shit or you havent posted your gender on your profile) personality/backstory appearance (if you already have made you're own custom sprite and would like it to be used give me the file/link/whatever and i will try to make it work. Now comes the hard part...SUGGESTIONS PEOPLE. I am quite new to rom hacking and the like so i will probably be need some sort of assistance. and rest assured people this is NOT the next fe404. Also, some suggestions on what kind of story should be put into play would be appreciated. EDIT: Add the growths you want and i will see what i can do. Take note: Just because you post said growths does NOT make it the final product. If I feel changes must be made i will do so. Posting growths just lets me get a general idea.

Dandragon Posted August 2, 2012 Author Share Posted August 2, 2012 im going for an actual serious plot instead of one full of memes and the like and bassically saying "oh this hack sucks" to get pity. In all honestly, i was hoping for a legitimately good story with a small side plot featuring me and some other person fighting like Ike and the Black Knight, but i've scrapped the idea.

Dandragon Posted August 2, 2012 Author Share Posted August 2, 2012 i might do 8, it depends on what characters that i get. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyron Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 (edited) 8 has some issues namely 5x and having to follow fe8s story somewhat, and less is known on fe8 most tutorials use 7 also any fe8 classes can be imported into fe7 so classes are not an issue this is not to say you cant use fe8 i dont really care which you choose Edited August 2, 2012 by Cyron Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fuzz94 Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 For a beginner hacker do FE7. It is a whole lot more documented, meaning there are more tutorials and rescourses for FE7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dandragon Posted August 2, 2012 Author Share Posted August 2, 2012 thank you if i can import sprites then that will be fine. as i said im new to hacking so im not sure how to sprite. That doesn 't mean im just gonna recolor mooks, no im gonna sprite them. Just need to get the programs and the like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunk Souls Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 I might jump in this, if you dont mind a new member submitting a character :s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dandragon Posted August 2, 2012 Author Share Posted August 2, 2012 i currently only have one character besides my own, so you're welcome to join in. I just need to know everything said in the first post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fuzz94 Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 If you haven't already, look through all of the wonderful tutorials in the resources section. This has a bunch of spriting tutorials as well. http://serenesforest.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=25963 Good luck with your hack! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dandragon Posted August 2, 2012 Author Share Posted August 2, 2012 again thank you splicing may be one of the easier options, but i may try to sprite some people from scratch because mageknight404 did it so why can't I! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikado Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 Not sure if you want characters yet, but here... Class: Mercenary Name: Adam Gender: Male Personality/backstory: A runaway prince who's rejected by many. A dark hearted and passive person who keeps his feelings to himself. He's very interested in women, but is afraid to talk to them. He was betrayed causing him to go into a rage, and losing his most precious thing. Because of that, he gave up prince hood and become a traveling mercenary. Appearance: Will add mug later Growths: HP: 80% STR: 40% SKL: 55% SPD: 30% LUCK: 20% DEF: 65% RES: 20% Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fuzz94 Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 If you mean Full custom I'd suggest against it. Splicing is a whole lot easier than FCing, especially for some one with no experience. Any attempt at FCing with no prior experience in spriting will end badly [spoiler=trust me] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dandragon Posted August 2, 2012 Author Share Posted August 2, 2012 im always accepting characters until said otherwise. i didn't ask for the growths but thank you. this makes things a lot easier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bagfisch Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 Then I submit as well Name:Maxi Gender:Male Class:Mage Personality/Backstory: A rather quiet person who comes from a simple family and studied Magic in his freetime. He does what he has to and is energetic in battle but still likes to keep himself a bit in the back. He also gets lightly shy around girls. Growths: Hp:60% Mag:50% Skill:55% Spd:35% Lck:45% Def:35% Res:40% (PS: 7 Con) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyron Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 i think dan meant personality not their life story so he can write dialouge and and a story without needing to make sure it does not screw with another persons back story also dan do you have a actual story in mind or written down if so posting it may help people with their character so to be clear im advising you wright up a description of your stories world and a short history of said world so our characer fit the universe as oposed to vice versa this alows a more convincing story but this is advice so your choice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm still working on a story at the moment but it IS coming along. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
