Alright, so I recently got into hacking, been trying to hack fire emblem 7, and I ran into a few snags. I have so many tutorials and stuff on my computer that i have scanned over but they aren't helping me. Basically,
1. How do I make a WORKING weapon that at range acts like a spell. I'm doing the whole spell association nightmare module on top of the item editor module, but usually what I end up getting is the weapon doing literally nothing at range animation wise, but still killing the enemy, and it frustrates me to no end.
2. Regarding FEditor ADV and its text editor, is there any hex value for completely unused text? If not is there a way I could get it that way, because I want unused text for custom weapon names and descriptions and whatnot.
3. In almost every tutorial I have read regarding the item editor module for nightmare, it says there are a few unused weapons that I can replace, but it never mentions any and I can't find any unused in the dropdown list the module gives me, is there something I am missing? I would appreciate a list of unused weapons that I could edit for my own custom weapons, and perhaps there hex values and if they are not included in the initial list provided by a module perhaps telling me how to make it so that the module recognizes it.
Thank you for your time, I am just a noob hacker that is trying his damndest to make things work but failing on his own.
