Mage Knight 404 Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 (edited) This is the ROM hack that I've worked on for almost two years now, since September of '06. I was only planning to do a simple name and portrait swap, but since then, this has become a lot more. This hack has become fairly popular among sections of the fanbase, especially on YouTube, and many are eagerly awaiting for me to finish this sucker. I'm so proud that this has garnered the attention of so many people. I can already see the fans coming... *readies boomstick* This ROM hack is a retelling of FE7 and follows Eliwood, Linoan of FE5, and myself on an epic journey. Many characters, some from video games, one from an anime(that's Sakura from Cardcaptor Sakura), and many original characters join up to thwart the plans of Ingram Prisken(Super Robot Taisen: Original Generation baddie), defeat the Fire Dragon, and maybe have some fun along the way. The difficulty is variable. You will NOT see unfair enemy stats, nor you will see any over the top situation in which you must savestate a hundred times to clear an area. The enemies have received a minor boost in stats, but are still fairly easy to treat with. The point of this ROM hack is not not be insanely hard or challenging, it's to have fun. Now, let's get on with it. Current Patch: Eliwood Mode Completed! Here's a bunch of screens: Beginning Screens Rehauling comparison Linoan's Mode screens Eliwood's Mode screens: Up to Ch. 16x | Up to Ch. 20 | Ch. 21 | Ch. 22 | Ch. 22x | Ch. 23 Madelyn | Ch. 23 Jack | Ch. 24 | Ch. 25 Kenneth | Ch. 25 Bradley | Ch. 26 | Ch. 26x | Ch. 27 | Ch. 28 | Ch. 29 | Ch. 29x | ZOMG Party!! | Raymond and Linoan's lovey-dovey Respite In Battle convo My YouTube Channel, housing videos from Chapter 15 to the end.

Swordsalmon Posted November 15, 2008 Share Posted November 15, 2008 I'm not sure if it's supposed to happen, but I'm at my EHM file, and at Linoan's rejoin, she does not start with Prism Pillar. Instead, she has the Brongaa Sword. Is this intentional? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oguma Posted November 15, 2008 Share Posted November 15, 2008 I'm not sure if it's supposed to happen, but I'm at my EHM file, and at Linoan's rejoin, she does not start with Prism Pillar.

Rubber Bands Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 I love it :) How did you insert Linoan's sprites into the ROM? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SupremeRulerOfJugdral Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 I'm guessing Nightmare? Check out flyingace24's tutorial on how to insert custom portraits in forums.grandbell.net Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nintenlord Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 I'm guessing Nightmare? Check out flyingace24's tutorial on how to insert custom portraits in forums.grandbell.net More updated version of the tutorial can be found in here. Though even that doesn't cover the use of my NLZ-GBA Advance even though FA himself said that it(+ his portrait editor modules) makes 30 second portrait insertion possible.

Intoner Two Posted December 15, 2008 Share Posted December 15, 2008 MageKnight! I registered just to tell you how much I'm loving your hack, it's so awesome lol; the game seems so much fun now, and I love how you hacked the promoted classes, who ever knew Bishops could use Anima Magic? heh, though I suppose they could in the older series games that I have yet to play; all your characters are pretty awesome, I'm glad to see people I recognize and all the cameos from Thracia 776 has definitely piqued my interest in it; my favorite character would be Jenny followed by Excellen, I am on um, that chapter where you fight Madelyn's lover after rescuing Excellen...his name escapes me at the moment, I had to restart because Chris got critical'd...if I didn't lose both him and Jenny I might have just continued on, but I have a friend named Chris myself so I felt bad game's been really fun, keep up the good work, if ya do any other major hacks I'll be sure to try 'em, much love Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

emblempride Posted January 1, 2009 Share Posted January 1, 2009 Well, I'm sorta stuck... on the Prologue. Everytime I try to start up the first chapter, Linoan's portrait begins to look like missing no. and then the cursor dissappears at the start of the battle. Help?

Intoner Two Posted January 1, 2009 Share Posted January 1, 2009 did you apply the patch to a 1235 FE7 ROM -the zip file with the gba rom must have that # on it-? (the US release is the only one compatible with most hacks unless you were translating a jp game) also I'm pretty sure MK's zip file has a readme if you have any other issues Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emblempride Posted January 1, 2009 Share Posted January 1, 2009 Yeha, no.1235. Patched using IPSWIN.exe, and the readme doesn't really help me on that particular issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Envoy of the Beginning Posted January 1, 2009 Share Posted January 1, 2009 (edited) Yeha, no.1235. Patched using IPSWIN.exe, and the readme doesn't really help me on that particular issue. You're using IPSWIN? I can tell just by this that you didn't read the entire readme file. It's just like these people on YouTube with Super Metroid Redesign. "plz hlp i need the passwurd 2 unzip dis zip file so i can play dis game lolololol" You have to use StealthPatch and follow the instructions on MK404's readme file. Lesson of the day: Always read the readme file that's included with something. Edited January 1, 2009 by Black Luster Soldier Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doom103 Posted January 1, 2009 Share Posted January 1, 2009 So is it done yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emblempride Posted January 1, 2009 Share Posted January 1, 2009 (edited) I realized what I did wrong , I redownloaded it, and I know what I read. I read the second readme, not the first lol. Edited January 1, 2009 by emblempride Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Glenn Posted January 1, 2009 Share Posted January 1, 2009 So is it done yet? Obviously not. The current patch only goes up to 29x or something around there. (I know his hacking progress is finished through 29x.) Now that he's got ASD started and the trailer video done, he'll be back to work on finishing Eliwood's Mode in the near future. (Though, the game won't "technically" be done until all of the modes are finished...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mage Knight 404 Posted January 17, 2009 Author Share Posted January 17, 2009 My, it's been a while since I've done this. Welcome to Chapter 30. As Eli and pals near the end of their journey, they arrive on the Dread Isle to mash Ingram's face in. Derek means to get in their way, but not if Ellen and Heather have anything to say about it first. All the while Megan searches for ways to stop Ingram while Alex searches for his love, Luna. Fun times. We're nearing the end, guys. Just one more chapter and it's finally over! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Icon of Sin Posted January 17, 2009 Share Posted January 17, 2009 Looking as sweet as always. The S magics might be actually fun to use now with the lighter weight When I heard there would be that Swordmaster Alex, I thought you'd make the Golden Sun one playable. Oh well...

Herr Wozzeck Posted January 20, 2009 Share Posted January 20, 2009 Wow, this is going to turn out to be epic, although I'm waiting until Eliwood mode is done before I download the patch and start playing so I can play through it continuously. But so far, I'm really looking forward to it. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
