zhawhjw Posted August 5, 2014 Share Posted August 5, 2014 Hello! I am new here! I am trying to hack FE8 and re-build my own village event. The problem is the raw codes and macros in Event Assembler software works quite strange when I am doing the insert background for conversation. And, I have tried to dump the structure from ordinary ROM to figure out what happens to my structure. Well, I failed. _(:з」∠)_...... This is the raw code from Ch2: label21: // label21 is the label for VILL's offset MUNO _SETVAL 0x2 0x2 //load bacg _SETVAL 0x3 0x96B //load text CALL label31 // go to $9EE31C MUSI CALL label25 // go to $591F40 _SETVAL 0x3 0x6D //set item _GIVEITEMTO 0xFFFF // current character _0x0228 0x7 // ??? ENDA According to the macros in "Main Code Helper.txt" , the "_SETVAL 0x2" is for Background. The first "_SETVAL 0x3" is for the Text Index. The last "_SETVAL 0x3" is for Item. However, the "_SETVAL 0x2" in my ROM is for Text Index !!?? And, the first "_SETVAL 0x3" doesn't work...................... Well, the last "_SETVAL 0x3" for Item works smooth. Now, It can only obtain item and show the conversation when I sent unit to village. The background doesn't exist............ Here is my structure： Label1: FADI 16 MUSI _SETVAL 0x2 0x02 // yeah, now it becomes the text pointer......... _SETVAL 0x3 0x0907 // does not work............the index just random typed for testing CALL $9EE31C MUNO CALL $591F40 _SETVAL 0x3 0x79 // works fine _GIVEITEMTO 0xFFFF _0x0228 0x7 ENDA I'd very appreciate someone can help me to figure out what's the problem. ^ ^ PS: I need to apologize that I cannot reply to your guys immediately, because of time difference（I must go bed now > <） PPS: Sorry for my poor english..............

Vennobennu Posted August 5, 2014 Share Posted August 5, 2014 I think I might see the issue here...swap MUSI and MUNO's positions (they're mixed up in the FE8 definitions), remove the FADI 16 from the top of you event, and see what happens. The events at 0x591F40 handle FADI for you, so there's no need to write out your own FADI. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, it is not working. > < Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Through tracking the other language version I found that the offset 9EE31C is WRONG for my ROM. The actual offset is 9EE310.............I don't know why................Does others have same problem as me? or it's just ROM problem???

zhawhjw Posted August 6, 2014 Author Share Posted August 6, 2014 A lot of the doc we have is only valid in the (u) ver Thank you! The ROM I used is the (U)ver ripped by TrashMan. So.............Does it mean I have to find a (U)ver without (TrashMan)? (The character of your profile is quite hard to rush him in 1 phrase when I meet him first time in game^ ^) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CT075 Posted August 6, 2014 Share Posted August 6, 2014 (edited) ..huh I think I use (u) venom, but you'll have to check eith someone else to cpnfirm It would def. make sense with random offset shifts though (tbh I just sic'd ryoma on him) Edited August 6, 2014 by CT075 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
