Yes I'm well aware, I wasn't being 100% serious. I'm just starved of FE7 action

...Well, guess I'm not sleeping tonight. This is awesome. Is there a patch for this anywhere?

P.S. Hey dondon151, I left a comment on a video of yours that's apparently over a year old. Whoops. If you want to get in a fiesty and exhilarating debate over how to pronounce "Guy," check it out.

EDIT: This post is strong evidence for not posting in a topic until you've actually read that topic.

Does a 100% growth version of this game exist?

[Thor Odinson]

Download Nightmare and mod it yourself. It's not hard. A bit tedious, maybe, but unless you don't have windows (Nightmare doesn't work on macs for some strange reason and I don't know about Linux but I recall Jake saying he can't hack on one) it shouldn't be a problem.


100% growth is boring though, unless enemies are also 100% growths in which case it might be interesting. Otherwise you'd probably just end up killing everything to death and there won't be challenge left in the game.

[Raven]

Is it possible for negative growths? (eg, 20% would become -20%, 80% to -80%, etc.)

Marcus would be even more superior than he already is.

[Thor Odinson]

I don't think so unless you asm hack. The growth rates indicate a certain RN the system needs to roll between 0-99 and I don't think the system's built for doing negatives since nobody has them and it might not be coded to have the condition of "if negative growth then use that rn to indicate a decrease in stat instead of increase". But I'm not sure, test it if you want :D

[GreatEclipse]

One interesting thing you could do if you implemented negative growths would be to have a Jeigan character who started with good stats for their level but who grew weaker in absolute terms the more you used them.

[Raven]

I think Marcus has good bases. By the end of the game I think he would still be one of the best units.

[GreatEclipse]

He needs to proc speed a few times to reliably double generic foes later on, and his concrete durability could be better considering enemy density in HHM. I have a hard time seeing him remain amazing for that long if he was gradually growing weaker instead.

Well, it may seem boring, but i just want to try it for fun...

So, i'm pretty new to hacking and stuff, is there a tutorial to mod it myself?

[Thor Odinson]

Check the hacking section.

Negative growths would involve changing level up mechanics, not actual growth rates. You'd simply make a successful roll decrease a stat rather than increase it. Viola, negative growths.

[Thor Odinson]

That's what I said, though I may not have been clear on it. I'm saying that in order to implement negative growths (alongside positive growths if you just want to have negatives in some stats and positive in others), the system would check for the condition of the growth rate being < 0, and then roll an RN using the absolute value of that integer for a chance to decrease said stat. However, since nobody in GBAFE actually has negative growths, I don't think that condition was put into place as the devs didn't make the game for people to hack into, and putting in that condition would just be unnecessary code.
