fettd [FE8] Fire Emblem - The Twin Dragons PLAYTESTERS NEEDED

[Fates-Blade]

 

This game’s content rating is E for everyone.

Please tell me your thoughts of the hack and what you think needs changing or what changes you appreciated or didn’t.

This is basically complete I don't really know what else to do with it other then improve the graphics and fix bugs.

This is a gameplay hack of FE8 that includes some of my ideas from my thread:

The reason I give bosses more than one weapon sometimes
is because the weapon durability is low.

High defense or resistance units have more HP to compensate for 30 being the def and res cap.

All three difficulties work so you can choose whichever you want, but I recommend starting with the Normal difficulty.

The changes are found in the Revision 7 download.

Screenshots:

You should patch a clean FE8 US rom with a UPS patcher like NUPS.

Things to know:

The Sound Room is already 100% unlocked.

Poison does 5-15 DMG.

AS to double is 3.

Growth rates can be displayed in game by
pressing Select on the unit stats screen.

 

Support bonuses that gave +5 give +2.

Weapon Triangle now give 10+ or - hit instead of 15+ or -

You can hold L to disable animations.

 

In CH 5x all allies start with the Easy Mode
weapons I strongly recommend you
keep them until CH9 if you play difficult mode
just in case but if you if you don't want to play
easy mode drop them.

 

There are OP Easy Mode weapons available
in the preparation screen armory for free,
be sure to drop them when you don't
want to play easy mode
anymore.

Mansel is supposed to heal with the Fortify I don't know why he doesn't.

 

You can go into the Guide menu command for information on how

to use the Sus/Bck command if you don't know how to use it.

For some reason the UPS Patch was corrupt redownload to fix it.

[Fates-Blade]

I’ve decided to call the changes revisions instead of updates.

I have made another revision hopefully this is the last one.

It changes Dozla's inventory in chapters 11A and B and prevents him from moving in CH 11A, lowers his skill by 6, and makes the range of the Easy Mode weapons 1-3.

I also added another screenshot to the Screenshots folder showing off the 2-3 range change for bows:

I made another revision:
I gave Forde +1 base Spd and removed the Vulneraries in the NPCs’ inventory in CH6.

[Fates-Blade]

I made yet another revision:

All ballista weapons have stats changed.

Many CH11B (AKA Ephraim's route) changes.

Cormag gained +1 HP.

Here's a screenshot of the changed Easy mode to Novice mode:

I decided to add the hack changes as a separate file for download, even though they come with the hack download.

[Fates-Blade]

I've released revision 5:I changed the pirate, fighter and brigand classes's max stats, edited Binks's and Gheb's stats, and changed the Berserker and Warrior's promotion stat gains.

As before I have the changes files, for the newest revision, for download to look at the changes before downloading the patch.

Also, this has been around since the first release but you can
go into the Guide menu command for information on how to use
the Sus/Bck command if you don't know how to use it.

That was a really long list of changes, added spoiler tags

[Fates-Blade]

The menu colors are a nice addition in Revision 7 IMO:

[Fates-Blade]

Since I have beaten the entire game on Difficult mode in Ephraim's Route I have put the saves I used in the Revision download,

they're for VBA but they could be used with other emulators.

 

Also if you ever need to farm EXP I highly recommend using the easy mode weapons that are purchasable from the preparation screen armory.

 

Thank you all and please give feedback.

Edited September 28, 2021 by Fates-Blade

[Fates-Blade]

A few other goals I had for this hack are:
1. Make sure farming is either much faster or not needed.
2. Make crappy units a LOT better like Marisa and Amelia.
3. Make the difficulty selections have a big difference between them.

I would say the last option is the one that may have some issues because FE8 doesn't allow bosses's stats to decrease with the Normal and Novice mode penalties oddly, FEFates doesn't have that issue.

[Fates-Blade]

Revision 8 has been released, here are the changes:

Changed the max skill of the Cleric to 7.

Removed the copyright on the title screen.

[Fates-Blade]

Also if anyone is pressed for time and just wants to skip ahead to play certain chapters on Difficult mode they can use the saves I already made that are in the download.

[Fates-Blade]

Hello everyone!

I have released another revision:

https://www.mediafire.com/file/xtkqnowwe7eb595/FETTD_V1Rev9.rar/file

I decided to change the colors of three of the four color
options in the options menu and change the colors for the
battle screen and the battle preview.

  

I added +5% HP growth for Joshua.

 

Based off of the feedback I received about Eirika being one shotted:

I added a 10+Luck bonus to Eirika's Swift Rapier so that she will have a higher chance of dodging,

I changed the talisman you can get at Chapter 1 to an
angelic robe so that you can use it for more
than just magic attacks, and I added an Angelic Robe to Ch3 so Eirika or any allies HP can be boosted up.

 

As before, my saves are included in the download.

I hope you enjoy this Revision and have a great day!

I have to re-release Revision 9 due to a bug with Ephraim's Reginleif giving 10+Def I'm sorry about this, the issue is now fixed.
