  1. Uh, just a small thing here (in fact, you might not have to change it if you don't want to). In the chapter that you get Melanie, there's a village that you can visit in the center of the map where the guy will talk about Melanie, but if you visit the village with Melanie he doesn't say anything different (as if he were talking to someone who isn't Melanie). He was old, so I guess you could use the excuse that he has poor vision or something and it's at night. Also, I don't think the village closes when you're finished talking.

    But yeah, that's what I have for now. Great hack so far, I'm on chapter 8 and I'm really enjoying it.

  2. well I give mad props to anyone who can beat the Astral Rift without any grinding, not even using the GA. Visiting Jake's house and buying stuff is allowed though :P

    Ah, sounds challenging. I might do a "casual" run of it when I'm done with this and then see if I'm interested in doing something like a "No-grinding" run of Astral Rift or some other restricted playthrough. But I guess that won't be for a while.

  3. yeah I don't like chapter 7x or 9 myself but someone wanted rain so I made it rain lol

    also fair warning if you haven't played TLP some of the chapters require multiple seizing and there's no warp staves so it's slightly harder to LTC those chaps

    lol yeah I did a "casual" run of TLP back when it was first released. Those were good chapters (the one with Howard as a boss and then the Sword Crusher Dude at the bottom along with the chapter where you had like a 72 turn limit or something like that). I only used Anakin to seize in both of those chapter, but I guess since we have multi-lord seizing I can break up the responsibility in those chapters. I think I missed a gaiden chapter because of the turn requirement so I guess there will be a bit of surprise. I also haven't done the constellations, but I'm planning on only doing the main game anyways.

    ^Chapter 2

  4. Yes

    No

    Yes

    No

    Respectively

    More details:

    - it's been updated yes, you actually get an extra pair of boots if you beat him IIRC

    - sorry it's glitched it will be fixed soon... I keep saying that anyhow but I'm super busy ATM so >_>;

    - yes, the 3 main characters, Siegfried, Kelik, and Anakin can all seize. No, Shon cannot seize, he is not a main character IMO or at the very least not a commander of the army

    - nope, Kelik is too busy stroking his ego to talk to them and you don't have Sieg at that point leaving only Anakin (only a commander really makes sense IMO though I guess you could have a very generic conversation with any character or something)

    -Oh wow, another pair of boots. That's pretty nice. I guess I'll see if I can do it this time around

    -Ah, no problem. I believe that chapter is a pain to LTC since it's in the rain. I guess I just won't do it for this run.

    -That's good. I'm glad that those 3 can seize. That'll probably make things a lot easier.

    -Ah, well that's too bad. But I guess since you can seize with Kelik so I could just have him do the seizing and then Anakin do the talking if they're worth it (didn't use them in my initial run because one of the enemies got a hold of the fort so the leader didn't spawn.)

  5. When I tried to record the chapter, the video didn't save properly. I already saved into Chapter 3, so there's nothing I can really do at this point.

    Chapter 2: (7/11)

    Traded the Javelin to Marcus who went south with Alan to take out some enemies. Had Roy and Merlinus go up. Merlinus got the Armorslayer and traded it to Roy and did some shopping after. WHen Thany came along, I had her rescue Marcus and bring him to the boss. Thany then ferried Roy over to the Seize point. Killed the boss with Marcus, first using the Silver Lance and then trading over to the Armorslayer that her got from Roy.

  6. >only plays first 3 chapters

    "OMG THIS COULD BE AN OFFICIAL GAME ITS THE BEST EVERYTHING IS PERFECT"

    I mean...

    As one of the people to get the early beta-patch, everyone who has been dying for the actual release, you will not be let down. Everything is well made, and properly executed.

    ^I can vouch for that. I was able to beta-test this hack about a year ago, and I must say, it is really good. This is not a hack to be missed. This is probably one of my favorite hacks of all time. Gameplay, storyline, it's all pretty well-balanced. Not too challenging, but certaintly not a breeze. It's just right.

  7. The part circled orange, even in the fix is still an impossible shadow. :/

    Realistically it would be essentially the same tile as the bottom shadow tile but have the shadow inverted.

    Oh, really? I'm not quite sure what you mean by that. Do you mind elaborating?

  8. I don't remember that, unless you mean post-game, there's some in post-game but they have a lot of potential to break the setup of chapters (because... bleh it'd take too long to explain) so they aren't in the main game

    Oh, hmm, then I must have misread then. Thanks anyways, I guess it's good to know so I don't try to go looking for it.

  9. Does anyone know where the warp staves are? I remember hearing someone say that there are warp staves in this hack, but I don't believe that I saw it when I played through his hack last time.

  10. Red indicates the sun's coming from the lower left.

    Orange indicates the sun's coming from straight to the left.

    Yellow indicates the sun can pass through walls/buildings.

    I always thought that the aerial view of the sun would make it all one. Is there a way to sort of make it all work?

  11. @The two maps.

    I like everything in the south on the second map, nearly everything in the north on the first map. The first map is rather boring while the second one has more interesting hallways and etc. I don't like the water tiles in the second one though, they look odd and out of place.

    What in the fuck.

    Yeah, I saw something in Do5 and Eternal Bond with those water tiles, so I thought I'd try it out. I guess it didn't work out as I had hoped. I'll see if I can make them look better.

    I was trying to make a Dragon mask with that portrait. When I was doing the other portrait I had posted for splice competitions (the one with Echidna), I noticed that the Dragon portrait (Idoun) might be good for a mask. Didn't really work out as I had hoped.

  12. Ohmigosh Hithere is back!!!!!!

    Sup.

    lol yeah I've actually been back for a while, but thanks.

    note, you'd probably want to do

    TEX1 text1

    SOUN ID

    MORETEXT text2 // or TEX4 depending on your EA version

    Oh wow, I actually envisioned it in a much differnt way. Thanks for posting this; this will definitely save me some time when I'm trying to finish this up as quickly as possible.

    also the music list doesn't include ALL sound effects so either play around if you can't find the one you want and know it exists or check Hextator's doc I think his had a list BwdYeti made that was somewhat more complete but not compatible with Nightmare (IIRC)

    Hmm, good to know. Though, since I'm using sounds that seem to be more conventional, it shouldn't be too much of a problem. But of course, knowing that there might be a more complete list of these sounds in Hextator's doc is certainly treasured information, so thank you.
