Download the patch here.

Changes:

Female assassin battle sprite is the same as legaults for gender differentiation

Hello and welcome to Serenes Forest!

Another C++ programmer, it's nice to see another one around here. Also, variety is a key when designing a videogame, you get used to that later on.

Anyways, welcome and hope you have a nice stay.

I don't plan to be a indie developer forever, because I want to be a part of something big.(Lol, I have a friend nicknamed Indie)

However, I am curious about what I should learn so I don't forget something when I go jobhunting.

A plus side to knowing C++ is that it's a quick swap to C, which means you can hack in ASM that much more easily

Assembly hacking sounds cool and I would love to try it. I want to master all the other hacking stuff first. After I figure out everything, I want to make a real Fire Emblem game/hack. I'll show the world...

Uhhh. . .you were playing FE when you were 7? Got it.

My brother got the game. He showed it to me and I loved it.

I am Cary Xiao and I am 14 years old. I played Fire Emblem 7 since around 2005. I wasn't very good at the game, but now I've grown up and learned how to... CODE! C++ is a fun language, but those long hours of coding get boring if you do it too much. I took a gaming break because I want to be a game programmer/designer when I grow up. Soon I got dragged in to romhacking FE7-8 because hexing is cool. And here I am now. I spent several hours so far romhacking with Nitemare. And I am pleased with my results.

This is one of my products.

Because I want to be a game maker, I came here to learn all about game balancing, designing, and arting. I am excited to meet everyone in this bright community because I am tired of my classmates and their taste for stupid things there seems to be quite a few minds worth listening here to.
