Crimson Red Posted November 29, 2009 Share Posted November 29, 2009 First of all, before you try anything, back up your ROM in case something messes up. Use GBA Graphics Editor (find it here and load your FE8 ROM. I recommend setting the palette to Grey Scale using the palette control. Then use the image control box and navigate through all the graphics until you find something that looks like the title screen. It'll probably be around other menu graphics and the such, although I'm not sure (it won't be in the middle of all the portraits or map sprites or anything). Now you need to find the palette for it. See a palette editing tutorial for how to locate palettes. Take the offset of the title screens' palette and put it in the palette control of GBAGE. If the option to use a Compressed ROMPalette comes up, then click that. You should now see the title screen and/or any parts of it (such as the brown scroll thing, depending on what part of the title screen your are hacking). Save that image, edit it using an image editing program (making sure not to change the general layout/arrangement of things and keep the image 16 colors or under) and then reinsert to a new, clean area in the ROM using GBAGE. Make sure that the palette is imported and the graphics are imported but that your new image doesn't overwrite any other images. Save your ROM and test. If everything was done correctly, your edited title screen should work out. Note that there are limitations to what you can do. Use common sense and you should be able to get it working. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
