MK404 and the fallen

Recommended Posts

I've followed this site for a good many years, as it's been a reliable source for fun-to-play hacks and delightful humor. However, as of late, and in my recent becoming-a-member, I feel blatantly ignored and disappointed by my peers and heroes. Sadly, I've found nothing but brick walls not leading to Diagon Alley in my pursuit of some of my favorite hacks, which I wouldn't fret about if I hadn't experienced 8 separate hard drive crashes, each with hundreds of hours of gameplay. In my experience, if the link isn't outdated, or otherwise yielding in error, then it isn't resulting in the final version of the hack. Hopefully someone can help me reattain my collection of finished and as-finished-as-they-will-be hacks, which include, but are not limited to, Mk404's FE7, Mk404's Sacred Dawn, Gheb FE, Gheb Saga, etc.
While I see directories, and am very thankful for them (thank you), I see hacks have either been looked over or died. In light of finding absolutely no help in the chatbox, I hope that taking the initiative to post inspires someone to help me.

To be clear, this is what I'm looking for:
- MK404's FE7 hack and Sacred Dawn
- FurryYunSeong's Gheb Sage and GhebFE
- Other completed FE 6-8 non-vanilla patches beyond the obvious, like Lost Promise

Here you go, Iron Rose. Enjoy. http://serenesforest.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=14184 Also, separate computers, devices, and externals. It's not like I abuse my electronics either. Far from it.

It's definitely not within my intent to be sarcastic or a smart ass in my response to your intent to help, but I thought that this excerpt would give you an idea of what I'm asking for. Essentially, I'm looking for those patches from someone's personal collection, among others that I've lost.

I sort-of understand you, so here's what you can do to make it a bit clearer. List out everything that you're looking for.

- Something

- Like

- This

Also, employ the powers of your search engine of choice, and if necessary, the archives of Teh Internetz. You might have better luck than asking random people for the patches that you want.

I was hoping that Serene Forest's collection of members wouldn't qualify as random people, especially concerning my quandary as FE 6-8 hack based.. However, I see where you're coming from, and thus my main post shall be edited. I have searched extensively with my search engine of choice, which I hoped to express with my dead-end links.

I can't be the only one saddened by these dead links and former versions...

Check the Project Directory. If it's crossed-out, it's dead (which is the status of A Sacred Dawn). Furthermore, a bit of thought and link-hopping would've landed you here.

Don't worry Klokinator, while those two are personal heroes, I hold you in high regards as well ;)

I guess I have a thing for painful humor. I actually found the Gheb games to be fun.



I have checked the Project Directory. I also gave links to Serene's Forest's dead ends, which were a result of my exploration through said Project Directory. http://serenesforest...?showtopic=8617 In any case, and dismissing your passive comment on my thought and link-hopping, I vastly appreciate the links that actually yield results....aside from this: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/88432144/Fire%20Emblem%2%C2%AD0A%20Sacred%20Dawn%20DX.zip

I noticed you were lingering on this post, HF Makalov Fanboy Kai, and thus I'm thankful to see that you've commented. Would you care to share with me a link to the appropriate Gheb patches, or the patches in whole?

It was to point out that there's alternate ways of getting what you're looking for. Other things you can do include going into a topic and reading the first post/ISOing the creator. I'll cover the second in a bit. For A Sacred Dawn DX, here's the topic:

http://serenesforest.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=27763

Follow the giant link at the top, and tell me what you get.

As for ISOs, here's how they work:

http://serenesforest.net/forums/index.php?app=core&module=search&do=search&cType=topic&cId={TOPIC_ID}&search_author={USERNAME}
Replace {TOPIC_ID} with the five-digit code that appears after "showtopic" in the topic's link. For A Sacred Dawn DX, that would be 27763. For {USERNAME}, replace it with the topic creator's name. So, if you wanted to see all posts by MK404 in A Sacred Dawn DX, you'd use this link:

http://serenesforest.net/forums/index.php?app=core&module=search&do=search&cType=topic&cId=27763&search_author=Mage Knight 404

I'm not looking for the reboot of Sacred Dawn, I'm looking for the old file, which I believe to have more content. I visited several topics and I posted the first page of the mains for reference. Though I might not have explicitly stated so, I've read through a lot of them from front to back. This has been a week-long process, Eclipse. It's not like I haven't rifled through pages of Google. It's also not as though I haven't been in the chat over the course of the last 72 hours asking around, to practically no response. I can't help but feel as though I'm not being given the benefit of the doubt as I'm mother-in-law'd.

As for the ISO lesson, I appreciate it and will probably find myself coming back to it for reference in the coming times.

The general consensus is to do the searching yourself, and get creative, as necessary (like following links in the creator's sig, which is how I found MK404's channel). If it's something that absolutely, positively cannot be found, including checking the web archives (sometimes, you'll find stuff like archived files), then I might consider asking for it. However, eight hard drive crashes is. . .well, impressive, to the point where I'd consider having a secondary, redundant personal storage of those hacks. Whether something stays up or not is up to the creator(s), and if they take it down for whatever reason, it'll be a lot easier if you already have it.

While replying to the searching bit would be redundant, I will say that, in light of hacks being easiest to find if you already have them, that I was seeking to find a member that had the hacks ready to share. Points taken.
