CavalierGuy Posted May 18, 2014 Share Posted May 18, 2014 Hello, this is my first topic. I have recently decided to create a entirely new FE7 hack, filled with new characters, sprites, and adventures. This is my first time attempting a hack, but I am ready for whatever challenges lie ahead. I do not have much experience with hacking, so I am open to advice. Any ssuggestions and tips regarding making a hack would be greatly appreciated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Iron Rose Posted May 18, 2014 Share Posted May 18, 2014 Well reading the ultimate guide would probably help a lot there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haku Posted May 18, 2014 Share Posted May 18, 2014 There are plenty of resources available to you on sf and other various sites as to how to get started. Also I'm pretty sure this thread should be in concepts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sirmola Posted May 18, 2014 Share Posted May 18, 2014 (edited) This hack already took that name: http://serenesforest.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=24830&hl=%2Bfire+%2Bemblem+%2Bforever As far as help goes: you will want to check http://www.romhacking.net/ for tools. this is the easiest place to find nightmare, for example.It also has lots of general hacking utilities. Also, you will want a hex editer. I use Hxd: http://mh-nexus.de/en/downloads.php?product=HxD Romhacking.net has many as well(there is an entire category devoted to them). I have heard good things about goldfinger, although i have not tried it. As far as maping goes, i highly recommend prime's maping tutorial: http://serenesforest.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=25963&page=1entry1595900 Actually, that entire thread is useful. You may want to use other people's sprites and maps(ask permission first) because those are entirely different skillsets, and hacking is hard enough to learn as is. However, note that people will only agree to work on your hack once you have something to show, because far too many people disappear before doing any real work.
