1 errors encountered:

File FE6Hack Events.txt, Line 30, Column 26: Didn't reach end, currently at Comma(,)

[CT075]

the only time i've ever seen that was a screwed up close-paren or a 0X or something

comment that line out?

[Kyougi]

Commenting both the UNITs and the TurnEventPlayer makes the events compile (but there really isn't anything left at that point), and commenting the TurnEventPlayer out, but leaving the UNITs in just yields the error message from my original post.

I think it might be something with the macro processing.

For the FE6 supports, I just use raw 8-bit hex value for the "Level+Alliance+Autolevel/No Autolevel" portion of the UNIT code for FE6.

[Kyougi]

Alright so I decided to try and do it without using macros. I commented out Hector and Lilina for now and changed Roy's UNIT code to this:

UNIT Roy RoyMasterLord 0x00 0x801 [6,19] [6,19] [Rapier,SteelSword,Vulnerary] NoAI

Though I'll admit I'm not 100% sure how to format the level hex, I think I got it right. It doesn't cause any errors

Then I changed the TurnEventPlayer to this:

TURN 0x00 Opening_event [1, 0] 0

And that yields this error:

Finished.
1 errors encountered:
File FE6Hack Events.txt, Line 30, Column 26: Didn't reach end, currently at Comma(,)

(Line 30 being the TURN event)

I tried not have the space between the 1 and 0 and changing the last zero to 0x00, but neither worked. At this point I'm beginning to think I'm just screwing up these commands, so any help would be appreciated, and thanks for everyone who has helped me so far.

UNIT Roy RoyMasterLord 0x00 0x801 [6,19] [6,19] [Rapier,SteelSword,Vulnerary] NoAI

does fe6 use two-byte values for level?

UNIT Roy RoyMasterLord 0x00 0x801 [6,19] [6,19] [Rapier,SteelSword,Vulnerary] NoAI

does fe6 use two-byte values for level?

I honestly am not sure, that's what I meant when I said I wasn't sure how to put all the numbers together.
The numbers I used there I just kinda pulled out of air to see if EA would accept it without a macro, but let's say I wanted Roy to be a Lv. 10 ally with autolevel, the macro is level*8+side*2+autoLevel, so since Ally = 0 and True =1, would that make the value 0x51? I'm still new to this so I apologize if I'm way off :U

[CT075]

10*8 + 0*2 + 1 = 80 + 0 + 1 = 81 = 0x51, correct

Ah, good. Well that's one thing down. Still not sure what the issue with the TURN event is.

[CT075]

i can't actually see any problem

maybe ask nl

[Nintenlord]

From World map helpers:

#define Style 0
#define  1
#define  2
#define  3

Well fuck me. Will fix shortly, in the meantime, comment those lines out in EAstdlib and it'll fix those issues.

[Kyougi]

I never would have thought to check World Map helpers for the issue. Thanks! And thanks to everyone else who tried to help.

So I got into FE hacking (AGAIN) and I'm reading a tutorial so I'm going step by step to see if stuff works.

Spoiler - Errors

2 errors encountered:
File: Definitions.txt, Line: 7: Redefining Vulnerary: #define Vulnerary 0x6C
File FE8#1.txt, Line 61, Column 0: Symbol NextChapter isn't in scope

And when I load up the chapter, it goes to game over
Also, what's the deal with "Redefining Vulnerary"? :\

[Hikarasuman]

File: Definitions.txt, Line: 7: Redefining Vulnerary: #define Vulnerary 0x6C

Looks like you're defining Vulnerary when it's already defined in the EAstdlib. Try changing its name or just using "vulnerary" since it's case sensitive.

File FE8#1.txt, Line 61, Column 0: Symbol NextChapter isn't in scope

"NextChapter" isn't defined as anything. Replace it. If you don't want to do that right now, change MoveToChapter(NextChapter) to //MoveToChapter(NextChapter) (or just ignore it for now since it doesn't actually matter right now and it looks like you don't have the version of the event assembler which doesn't assemble when there are errors)

no idea on the game over thing though, I don't do fe8 events. Try making sure you followed the tutorial exactly again?

[Heavy Weapons Ike]

Alright, so I change some of the things like you said and I got no errors!
However, I'm still getting the game over screen for some reason. :x
I'm following Arch's tutorials on event hacking.
EDIT: Figured it out! Forgot to add "CauseGameOverIfLordDies"
EDIT2: NVM, I fixed it! ^^

I was editing Ch3's chests with chest editor and erased everything. It seems that I accidentally also erased something related to Eirika seizing and now nothing will happen when i choose the seize option. Help?

[dondon151]

what you could probably try doing to revert chapter 3 back to its original condition is to disassemble chapter 3's events from a clean FE8 ROM and assemble it back into your edited ROM

but that's kind of a massive pain in the butt if you've never disassembled or assembled before

EDIT: or, wait, try opening 2 instances of nightmare (one with a clean FE8 ROM) and try copying back over the data in the chapter 3 chest editor.

I wouldnt know how to do that since Im still getting started and all. But Im willing to put the time to learn. Could you PM me with an simple explanation of what I have to do?

From Ch3 events:

LocationBasedEvents:
CHES 0x0 0x14 [6,3] 0x14
CHES 0x0 0x28 [8,3] 0x14
CHES 0x0 0x1 [10,3] 0x14
CHES 0x0 0x1C [6,12] 0x14
LOCA 0x3 [14,1] 0x11
DOOR 0x0 [6,10] 0x12
DOOR 0x0 [10,5] 0x12
DOOR 0x0 [2,3] 0x12
AFEV

When you erase aka zero out a chest completely, you end up with this:

LocationBasedEvents:
CHES 0x0 0x14 [6,3] 0x14
CHES 0x0 0x28 [8,3] 0x14
CHES
CHES 0x0 0x1C [6,12] 0x14
LOCA 0x3 [14,1] 0x11
DOOR 0x0 [6,10] 0x12
DOOR 0x0 [10,5] 0x12
DOOR 0x0 [2,3] 0x12
AFEV

And CHES == LOCA == AFEV with no parameters, meaning the game will end reading at that point.

So, its not linking properly to the end of the map? How do i fix it?
