Thanks! I've got the basic event coding down, but I know I still have some stuff I need to learn. I'm one of those people that if he doesn't know how to do something, he needs to learn how to do it or else he won't rest. Haha I can't stand being stuck on something. Question though. It doesn't state in the tutorial whether or not you're supposed to start all the world map event coding in a new text file, or if you can put it all in the same file as the chapter events. So if I wanted to change chapter 1's world map events, would I want to make a separate text file called "chapter 1 world map events" or something? Or would I keep it on the same text file as my chapter 1 events?

Thanks for the reply! Where can I learn how to do world map eventing? And to do these events, would I have to make a separate text file and then use the event assembler to assemble onto my hack, or would it stay on the same text file as the chapter I want to change the world map event on? Lol, you get the point though.

Thanks for the reply Jubby! Like you said, I know you can change the text through something like feditor, but I'm thinking a little more than that. For example, in Chapter 1 of FE7, you see Lyn's map sprite heading to Bulgar along with Kent's and Sain's. I want to change it so that you don't have that, and instead you get a view of the full world map, some text, highlight the Sacae area, zoom into some random coordinate on Sacae, and show some more text, then load the map. It's something that definitely exceeds my knowledge, but I'm wondering if it's possible without having to get all into the ASM hacking. Hell I don't even know how to disassemble events properly lol.

Hello everyone! I'm new here, but I've been lurking on these forums for a few weeks now trying to pick up bits and pieces of rom hacking info. Thanks to you all I've learned most of the basics of event hacking. I've been having some trouble with my hack though; I can't seem to find a tutorial on how to change the pre-chapter world map scene event (not really sure what to call it exactly). What I mean by that is that part of the chapter at the very beginning where the map of Elibe shows up and you get that little text box that narrates what's going on and all that cute stuff. So far I've just been using Nightmare to skip the event, but I realize that if I want to be come a higher tier hacker I'll need to know how to do this eventually. Gonna need to upgrade from a novice eventually after all. Any help on this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance! PS: Wasn't entirely sure if this went in the event assembler thread or not. If it is supposed to, please forgive my ignorance. Like I said, I'm fairly new here lol.
