  1. I know all i did is fairly easy stuff, hence why i labelled myself as a n00b.

    Can you link me to the Tutorial?

    and *sigh* guess i'll download the coordinate converter and check.

    Problem is that i toyed too much with the reinforcement editor and now Eirika tries to recruit amelia in turn 1 no matter what tab i select.

    Blazers Ultimate tutorial is here: http://serenesforest.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=22051

    also there are a fair number of tutorials here: http://serenesforest.net/forums/index.php?showforum=56

  2. @Wintersmith, really? well i guess i'll give it a go, also what i meant by altering magic users is so that any magic unit can wield and use any magic, Light, Dark, Anima and staves, well any promoted unit, altering the route is that in my FE8 summoner class is outright replaced by Necromancer, not to mention i also altered Tethys so that she is a Female Shaman/Druid. thats all done easily with nightmare

    Also could you please give me some pointers? with nightmare, just play with it you'll learn how it works in not time, if you need help check blasers ultimate tutorial

    checking the recruitment editor part there is no 13B, tho that can be easlity fixed, i need to swap bosses i have no idea how to do that, i need to make Selena the boss of 10B permanently, no idea how to do that either, no idea how to make Glenn show up in the map for 9A, altho i found a way to program the recuitment. In order to do this you would need to use events, arch made tutorial on this

    By Any chance you have a link for any FE 8 maps that have grid? i figured how to make glenn show up (in theory) but looking at the map i have no way to determine X/Y coordinates. No sorry

  3. I like two particular characters of The sacred stones that cannot be recruited until you clear Valni tower post game 3 times and a certain floor of Lagdou ruins, i am talking about Fluoro spark and Sun Stone, both are characters i feel sympathy and i do not like that they are killed with such ease.

    I want to change their deaths and add support convos with some of the characters.

    My question is my being a total n00b at the more advanced stuff how difficult can this be?

    For those with curiosity my editing skills do not go beyond:

    a) De promoting units. nightmare easy

    b) Altering their stat growths nightmare also easy

    c) Altering the magic classes to fit my ends. depends on what you want to change likely doable with nighmare

    d) Altering the stat cap of the classes. nightmare also

    e) alter Promotion path nightmare

    f) make weapons have unlimited uses and alter the number of remaining uses. nightmare

    Thats all i know, all of it self taught by experimenting with a lot of roms of FE8.

    I want for example Ephraim and Duessel being able to talk Fluorospark from her suicidal path and given that Glennis not hostile and from what i remember Glenn was not hostile towards Erika and was offed by Valter, so i would make Glenn Recruitable in Ch 10a and Selene would show up as part of EPhraim's entourage in 13-14A.

    eventing for those

    all the nightmare things are easy

    eventing, is easy enough once you know how it works and practice some

  4. probably not the right forum, i would move this to the hacking questions or concepts

    also the best way to get help is read through the tutorial, try following the instructions, test, works great, doesent work, recheck your work, if you see an issue fix then test, if it works cool, if it doesn't work start a topic asking for help with a detailed explanation of what you did and what happened

  5. Could you go through and edit that.

    it sounds like

    -you made script (which based on this post i'm scared to see)

    -there will be a vagabond class

    -you had issues hacking, but did not elaborate beyond saying it resulted in the black screen of doom

    -I think it has eliwood in it

    -sounds like you took issue with mageknight 404's hack

    -its potentially a series of hacks

  6. i would use

    Sol (From Giaus)

    Galeforce

    Pass

    Bowfair

    Astra or Lethality

    Sol, she won't inherit mercenary and none of the male exclusive skills are that good

    Galeforce, since she is a sniper she won't have much of an enemy phase so you need to capitalize on the player phase

    Pass, If she gets surrounded its useful, an alternative is dual guard + if you use her as a pair up

    Bowfair, More str = more damage

    Astra/Lethality/Luna, Activation skill which one is up to you, I prefer luna

    As an alternative you could make niore a ranger that would be same setup except pass could be replaced with something else.

  7. Just a note on bows

    you mentioned you might have rangers use crossbows, in real life this would not be at all effect when loading a crossbow you either have to brace the crossbow and pull the string up using your entire body or use a winch, the 1st is impossible on a horse, the 2nd is very slow

  8. It's good to be able to quote people again... damn computer

    Unfortunately I can't do that via events because skirmishes are nothing more than a "load one of this three groups of units at random"-- making some kind of condition for that to happen would require some heavy ASM.

    ... I can do that in the Tower of Valni / Lagdou Ruins, though.

    I had plans to transform the Tower of Valni in some sort of military base where you must pay a fee to enter and you can stay for a good amount of turns in order to have characters support or to buy some special item. I can probably make conditionals there, so that speaking with a certain NPC with a certain character will make some event occur in that map or also in actual chapters of the game. I suppose I will just need to use Permanent Event IDs... though seeing how broken Elibian Nights was when it abused them, I don't know if that's a good idea.

    ok, thanks, that makes sense

  9. First of if its been 2 weeks I would advise seeing a doctor. Second have you been sniffling? if you have that would explain somethings, and even if it isn't the main issue it will help. I would also suggest gargling with salt water its gross but it helps, other than that be sure to drink lots of water and stay warm.

  10. Yeah, I should really write a guide to FE8 hacking someday.

    I also have custom skirmishes if that's of any interest.

    Can you set them to trigger when certain conditions are met

    for example if characters a and b achieve a rank support a certain skirmish would trigger

    or alternatively have it be based on if a pc is live or dead (or even a enemy unit)

  11. this:

    There was a time when men were kind
    When their voices were soft
    And their words inviting
    There was a time when love was blind
    And the world was a song
    And the song was exciting
    There was a time
    Then it all went wrong
    35 translations
    to this
    In the dark this song the song length and carefully to ensure that you can afford two people maximum.
    i may just have to do this to all of the songs in les mis
