Knabepicer Posted October 2, 2022 Share Posted October 2, 2022 Download the hack here Copy-pasting this from FEUniverse, and posting this for the project lead: Hello everyone, I’m here to share a complete FE8 hack, Bells of Byelen. This release includes 24 chapters and 3 interludes where more characters can be recruited, similar to TRS. There are a total of 73 potential player units, with 60 that can be recruited in any given playthrough. This is a telephone hack, similar to Call of the Armor by Team Distant Roads. After the completion of CotA, Team Adversity was formed primarily from this same group, along with a few new additions bringing us to 15 chapter creators. The premise was to create a telephone hack using FE5 mechanics and make an attempt at a more in-depth story, while also using a buildfile instead of FEBuilder. These added complications increased the development time necessary, as it took us nearly a year to make the hack functionally complete. We then took 2.5~ months to polish the hack and create something more [complete], with a focus on writing a complete set of supports and updating aesthetics. Our development method followed the structure of CotA (more information in the CotA post 12), with some minor deviations, mentioned under “Operational Changes from CotA” if you’re interested. Detailed credits are in the same folder as the patch. Hack Features: Spoiler Multiple gameplay mechanics developed and expanded upon for this project, such as: Dismount, PCC, Movement Stars, Thracia Escape, Movement/Build Growths, Equippable Accessories Uses other FE5 mechanics with some modifications, such as: Capture, Steal, Fatigue, Leadership Stars Modified Hit/Avo formulas, modified Exp formula similar to FE14 to facilitate Fatigue Supports that increase based on deployment similar to FE9, with reworked support bonuses similar to a 3H-like system, where they apply on initiation if a support partner is in range of the enemy; Bonuses are unique, no affinities. All support chains have been finished writing, and all include a paired ending. Class and item lists reworked from scratch using FE5 as inspiration, along with new custom classes and items Custom skills, new items, weapons, classes, and much more Equippable accessories that grant skills or stats; FE5 Crusader Scrolls reworked into accessories; Some equips decrement durability when attacking or defending, such as shields and arrows 3 interludes where you can recruit 2 units out of 6, creating endless options for replayability Story: Spoiler Bells of Byelen’s story follows two officers of the Decian Liberators, a group of rebels fighting to free their home country of Decia from the occupation inflicted on them by the Cythean Empire, currently trying to conquer the continent of Orodreth.They are Loewe, a Decian who lost everything to Cythes, and Cleo, a Cythean who defected from her post, and they find themselves leading a weakened rebellion together, following a painful betrayal. In their quest to free Decia from Cythes, they meet an experienced strategist, Kwame, and they learn that the stakes of their resistance may be much bigger than they know, putting all of Orodreth at risk if they fail… Members of Team Adversity: Spoiler Project Lead LegendofLoog Spreadsheet Officer Pandan Wizardry Lead Pikmin1211 Chapter Contributors Ch1: LegendOfLoog, edits by RW Ch2: knabepicer Ch3: Kyrads Ch4: devisio Ch5: pandan Ch5x: LegendOfLoog, cutscene event map by RW Ch6: MintX, edits by pandan Ch7: Rivian Ch8: DrGreen3339 Ch9: TDAWS, edits by RW Ch10: bpat, edits by knabepicer Ch11: Turtle, edits by pandan Ch12: Leche Ch12x: LegendOfLoog Ch13: DrGreen3339 Ch14: RandomWizard (RW) Ch15: LegendOfLoog Ch16: pandan Ch17: Xilirite Ch18: bpat Ch18x: LegendOfLoog Ch19: ArcherBias Ch20: devisio Ch21: RW, edits by knabepicer Ch22: Kyrads, writing by Xilirite Ch23: LegendOfLoog, map by RW Endgame: Xilirite, knabepicer Supports LegendOfLoog pandan RandomWizard DrGreen Xilirite Leche bpat knabepicer ArcherBias Levin Rivian Assets/Playtesting/Interlude Unit Submission Pikmin1211 Dainn hypergammaspaces WarPath Levin sdaht Knight_Moris Roze A_Reliable_Chair Pushwall Buildfile Link: Spoiler GitHub - legendofloog/Teleshack-II: Bells of Byelen buildfile Note: The unique assets within this buildfile are NOT F2U by default.

Hazzberry55 Posted October 8, 2022 Share Posted October 8, 2022 Loving the game so far. I'm playing on Mac, on the Open Emu Emulator, and I've sadly run into a game-breaking bug. Upon clearing chapter 6 and saving the game, the game completely crashes. Black screen, weird noises. Super heartbreaking because I was having a ton of fun with it, it's really well done. Any ideas on a fix? Is my emulator the problem? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure about this particular bug, but there have been some bugs that have been fixed in updates, so I'd recommend re-downloading the patch from the link and seeing if that works. I play using OpenEmu too, so that should be supported. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Resener Posted March 4 Share Posted March 4 (edited) My game gets stuck (black screen) in that chapter where I have to capture Coralia. Is this a bug or? I'm playing the game in john emulator. So after I capture Coralia, Chloe dialogue kicks in "Now comes the hard part) and the screen turns black Edited March 4 by Resener Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
