no problems, Cam. I just needed to know how to do multiple convos in the same event.

after this, i'm completely lost. eventID's have me confused, so does villages and houses needing a name for the evnt. then there's reinforcements, plus other things that weren't in the template.


now, do I still need to go into nightmare to set-up these characters to appear if they're already set under my good/bad units?

[Burning Gravity]

It's not as much a problem as it is just a question with a simple answer stated in a slightly confusing way that implies that the events are complex =P

...IMO, anyway.

what are you trying to say?

Really not seeing the problem here.

Oh, you were talking to me. I get the question asked, I just fail to see how anyone who's supposedly read Arch's tutorial couldn't figure this out.

[Claude C Kenny]

i'm totally sorry I didn't pick up on the concept as fast as you did.

[RNG Princess]

is it possible to have a Stefan like hidden item?

Like in RD where you step on the tile and he gives u the Vague Katti but he's not recruited.

Edited by Queen_Elincia, 07 April 2011 - 06:54 PM.

[CT075]

Yeah, do an area event like the one you'd use to get an item but use LOU1 or CUSI instead.

[Shin]

Could I have an example of a scripted battle? I'm using FE7 as a base and I'm not too sure what I'm actually doing.

FIGH 0x8D 0xDA $8 0000000

but I'm not too sure about the format of what I'm pointing to. Ideally it would be a battle where the former wins. Arch's tutorial covers it briefly but I'm still stumped.

[Zath of the Sword]

Can some one please take a look and make sure this is right for me? Thanks

Scripted battles work like this:

FIGH Char1 Char2 Pointer $00000000

Now I'd wager that you're having trouble with the Pointer. The pointer can be anything you want it to be. It could be "fight" or "death" or "fgsfds"

But anyway

Here's an example of a fight in my own hack, just for reference:

[blah]
FIGH 0x62 0x8A fight $00000000
[more blah]
ENDA

fight:
AttackerMiss(0) //You could use false, but I think 0 works better
DefenderSilencer(1)
EndOfBattle

Now, do note that you could use the raw hex for battles instead of these macros. There's no real reason not to. But these are easier for people who are like me and too lazy to go look up all the right combinations.

[Shin]

Thanks, Cam. I'll go give it a try. It's been bugging me for a good while now!

EDIT: All sorted! Thanks!

I started up chapter 11, and all I got was the map with no units on it, and nothing going on. I know I must have done something right by the fact that it loaded up in the first place.

now, I didn't actually put the units into nightmare, so that might be the problem. hopefully, someone can point out what I did wrong.

[Kitty of Time]

One MAJOR flaw, you have no opening event.
Or at least you never told it to go.

Turn_events: TURN 0x00 Opening_event [01,00] 0x0 0x00//Opening 

CODE $00

That would make the event actually happen.

You also have no ENUNs, and REMU isn't a code, its REMA

I got mine from the example that arch posted. how is it wrong? I looked again, and added ENUN where I saw it, and changed to REMA.

Edited by Claude_C_Kenny, 09 April 2011 - 08:12 PM.

[CT075]

That shows that you have either no idea what either of them mean.

ENUN tells the game to check whether or not there are units moving. This is mainly used to stop crashes and glitches because something happened before a unit finished moving.

IF (unit is moving)
     STAL 1
ELSE (unit is not moving)
     Continue on

REMA clears the screen of face sprites, something completely different.

almost got this. just a few more issues:

1. how to make units look like they're coming from offscreen.

2. the ending event plays, but the chapter doesn't end. how do I fix that?

3. the cursor won't switch to the designated units during the opening event.

4. backgrounds won't load, despite doing it the way arch said to.

5. how to make units appear at the end of enemy turn, and still have their phase initiate.


yeah, this should be it. a few simple things, and I should be done. I had a few simple fixes that i'm surprised you guys didn't see (LOU2lol, no OOBB), so please cease the flaming, because you guys aren't perfect either.

 @Claude:
1. I think you load them and then use the second set of coordinates in their unit data. 
2. You forgot MNCH 0xwhatever chapter is next
3. Not really sure about this one. Try using CAM1 to focus on the character? 
4. I don't see any background codes in your events :/  
This should work, though: Text(background,text)
5. Something like: 
TurnEventPlayer(0,pointer,turn)
TURN

Pointer:
LOU1 unit
ENUN
ENDA

As for my question, is it possible to make a conversation occur directly after opening a door? 
And:
Text(0x03,0x908)
FADI 16
LOMA 0x02
It sort of flashes back to the original map after the text ends. Would removing the FADI prevent that from happening? 
(Hacking FE8, if it helps)
