brassy Posted June 7, 2016 Share Posted June 7, 2016 Any ideas on how to do this? I'm new to using Nightmare. Although, I'd learn Hex editing if I needed to. So here's my problem.. I'm trying to balance the Sacred Stones, and Seth just spits on my face. He's way too good. Far too good. So I had an idea, hack him out until the route split and have him rejoin the cast by inserting him into character selection screen. However, just replacing his data with a separator seems to crash the game at the beginning of the level. Also, replacing him with a NPC unit in the prologue didn't work either. It crashed the game at the end of the level after killing Brequet. So whatever/ I then gave Valter a horse slayer. It killed him, but he still came back with 13 HP in the prologue... ------------- I'm guessing that game crashes when a pointer cannot find certain data, so instead of returning nothing it crashes the came.. bummer. So any ideas on how to off this guy? He's destroying my balance.... On a second note, it'd be great if someone could tell me how to attach the sword casting animation to spells and staves.. IE, so I could have a Falcon Knight use physic. I remember doing the ECG back in 2007, and my swordies always used the sword casting information. It doesn't do so when I give them light magic ranks in Nightmare. This is really weird. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Primefusion Posted June 7, 2016 Share Posted June 7, 2016 (edited) You might try just changing Seth to be an NPC in the scenes he shows up in (He appears in multiple spots in the Prologue). But, I strongly suspect this will require editing the events themselves. The game crashes because it expects Seth to be there, but he isn't. Also: Moved this to the Questions subforum.

ErrantDShepherd Posted June 7, 2016 Share Posted June 7, 2016 Gotta be honest, I don't quite see the point? But good luck OP. Seth works well for me as a meat shield, and if I want to not use him... I just don't. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

47948201 Posted June 8, 2016 Share Posted June 8, 2016 I'd look into the Event Assembler--use the default events for the chapters and just tweak him out that way. Nightmare is great for many things, but this isn't one of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kantoorfarina Posted June 8, 2016 Share Posted June 8, 2016 (edited) I don't know much about the technical problem, but, just saying: I don't think removing Seth till after the route split will balance him enough. I'd say that if you want to nerf him, start by giving him growths that a jagen should actually have and lower his base stats by a couple points.
