So, I've been hacking FE7, and I got to chapter 15, but I can't locate chapter 15 in the nightmare modules.There is one 15, and it is the Hector mode chapter 15. It isn't marked with an H, and there isn't an E15 either. This chapter in Eliwood's story is where you get Lyn's party back, and I want to put their palettes back to the way I set them when they enter, but I can't find the chapter? Can anyone help me here? P.S. I'm sorry if this is a stupid question, I'm sort of a noob.

So, I'm trying to change a characters starting class in FE7 (Renualt) I had figured out how to people that join on the map. I can't figure out how to do it when they join through a house. I'm using nightmare for this.

Hello guys, it is possible that you have seen my videos on youtube, but anyway i wanted to post some videos of character fights i made for some debate or just for fun, you can ask me witch battles of the gameboy era you would like to see: Fargus vs Nergal Lyn vs Roy: Canas vs Knoll: Nergal vs Zephiel: Erk vs Ewan: Lyon vs Nergal: Lloyd vs Linus:

There is probably a simple answer to this question, but I've looked around the forum (and have searched for certain keywords) without finding the relevant solution. I am at least somewhat familiar with all of the typical GBA hacking utilities, and the game in question is Blazing Sword. My intention is to create a defense objective that has enemies targeting a specific location, whether that be a throne or a different square. As with the main games, the objective will be failed (resulting in a gameover) should the enemy reach that spot. The first thing I don't know how to do is pick the location I want. If I set the enemy AI to "SeizeThrone" they will pick a location independent of where my throne tile is currently set and will go somewhere else that seems related to the map I am replacing, but nevertheless I have not been able to locate the relevant value in Nightmare. Additionally, I assume that I must create an event to trigger the gameover once the enemy reaches that spot. Anyone familiar with the syntax I would need to use in order to accomplish this? I appreciate any help you can offer, and I apologize if this is something commonly addressed on this board.

This is my first serious ROM hack that isn't me deciding on one thing and working on it for 5 minutes and getting bored. The aim of this ROM Hack is to swap the characters in Fire Emblem - The Sacred Stones with the characters from Fire Emblem - The Blazing Blade (hence the name) I haven't made much progress but I have made decisions for who most of the characters will be swapped with. I plan on finishing this before I start university on the 18th. Here is a link to the spreadsheet in which you can see who I'm swapping with who, as well as the progress that I'm making. Any feedback would be helpful. Beta 2 can be downloaded here. The patch should be applied to US version of Fire Emblem - The Sacred Stones. The full name of my rom is 1997 - Fire Emblem - The Sacred Stones (U)(TrashMan) All that I have left to do is add the movement sprites for the main characters and myrrh. Everything else is complete. Eliwood promotes into a Paladin or a Hero as I don't know how to add full custom classes. He promotes with a Knights Crest or a Hero Crest.

The rule about Marcus being free up to Chapter 16 results in Marcus dominating those chapters, overshadowing the earlygame units, and making strategies and turncounts far more homogeneous among the players. There have been drafts [1] [2] that restricted Marcus to Chapter 22 for only the player that drafted him, but why not also allow him to be drafted before that point as well? Marcus before Chapter 22 is still pretty overcentralizing, so I arbitrarily set the divide point at 19x / 20. Earlygame Marcus exists for 11 chapters, lategame Marcus for 18 chapters, which seems very roughly equal in value. Since there are "two" more units now, Wallace/Geitz and Harken/Karel are demoted to "free" again. They would just make dead team slots anyway and make balancing teams harder. The rule about defend chapters is somewhat lame as well. This time, four out of the five will be treated as rout enemy chapters (the exception is Vaida's so you don't have to kill her in Ch26). After killing all the enemies, you can visit, build supports etc. as usual. I'm not sure how best to spice up the optional gaiden chapters, if at all, so this time they're unchanged. Rules of Play This will be auction style again. What's the point of having two guinea pig tests if not to iterate on the method? You can check these [1] [2] threads for more info if you aren't familiar with the concept. I've made a few improvements as well. PM me your bids and post so others know how many slots are left if you want to play. Here are some sample bids based of the prices generated for the last auction. Think carefully. Remember early game units will be more valuable without free Marcus. The change of defend chapters to rout chapters means there are more turns possible to save, so good units have more potential. And lastly, these prices are still somewhat flawed even under the rules of play they were generated for. There are almost certainly over 40 units of inaccuracy in these prices. If you change your mind before the last person joins, feel free to change your bids. Here is a pastebin of the lua script I'll be using. You can run it a variety of ways including vba. You can fiddle with the bids at line 786 to see it in action and test things out. SHA256 hash of my bids: c84903f0bb442ab73c260e870f15008100552ed92c17fd371ad99b3f5a2e35e4

(This is for those who have finished or are doing a randomized run of Fe7) This is the first forum I started, so it might be kind of rough, but stick with me. So anyways, the way you do the logs is you say the chapter your on (please State if your on Hector or Eliwood mode. It might get kinda confusing other wise), the units your using and there classes and growth rates. For the units your not using, State there class and why your not using them wether it be you just dislike them, they have a bad growth rate, or something else. I'll do a log of my progress as an example: Current Chapter: Chapter 3 Units I'm using: Lyn (Mage): Growth rates are 10% Hp, 80% mag, 30% skl, 90% spd, 115% luck, 5% def and res Kent (Hector Lord): Growth rates are 65% Hp, 75% str, 40% skl, 30% spd, 10% luck, 70% def,5% res Sain (Thief): Growths are 5% hp, 60% str, 45% skl, 20% spd, 100% luck, 30% def, 35% res Florina (Dancer): Growths are 75% hp, 5% str/mag, 20% skl, 80% spd, 20% luck, 45% def, 65% res Units I'm not using: Wil: Everyone of his growths except spd, def and res are 15% and under Dorcas: Has a 5% in every growth rate except for str, skl, spd, and luck.

So I've been trying for a while now, but I still can't for the life of me figure out how to insert custom music into the game. Every tutorial I seem to find is either full of broken images, videos and tags making them really hard to follow or they're just very confusing in general. So, can someone point me to the easiest method of inserting music into the game?

So I expanded/relocated the Boss Music array (and changed the editor.nmm accordingly) and this happens when battle animations are viewed in game. It freezes up, before continuing but with distorted/echo-ey sounds and no music. I can say with 99% confidence that I expanded it correctly. There was only one pointer that needed replacing... I wanna say I've encountered this before but I can't remember. Is there a known cause for it? Thanks as always.

okay so in my FE7 randomized playthrough, i ran into a rather bad issue. When i beat chapter 15, and i did with a green solider alive to give me the option to go to chapter 16x, I would- upon getting the option, have either yes or no. Now this is normal but it would become a black screen forever. any thoughts and tips on how to fix this? thank you for reading this if you have. i think the only thing that could have lead to this glitch could possibly be that Lucious became dart and it messed up, but i find that highly unlikely to be the cause of the glitch I have learned that even if i try to suspend the game, then it goes to a blackscreen

I'm trying to use animation event assembler instead of Feditor to insert custom animation. But for some reason I got this message: Dark mage Installer.event, Line 13, Column 27: Didn't reach end, currently at Colon(:) I googled around but couldn't find any solution. Any idea how to fix it? My master animation installer event: Dark mage installer event:

I've been trying to mess with the game so that all units have at least 100 in every growth. I found out how to do it, but I have a few problems with it. I'll go to add a module on Nightmare and it will say that there are entry names, but it won't load. Does anyone know what this is or how to to fix it?

So I repointed the weapon icon graphic as well as the item list. But when I assigned a custom icon for an item, this happened: I have absolutely no idea how to fix this. Any help would be much appreciated.

If you are one of those special people that managed to buy an NES Classic this past year, then I have some good news for you. In the past few months, applications like Hakchi and RetroArch allow us to put any NES, SNES, GBA, and many more onto our NES. Now it is possible to play Fire Emblem 1 all the way through to 8 on your television. Of course you can always play emulations on your computer, but I've always enjoyed playing NES and SNES on the big screen. The menu music now is the 8 bit FE theme song. I'm thinking about making an entire FE theme for the NES Classic. I hope this thread inspires someone else with a mini to download the FE titles. This tutorial is not mine, but it is the best one out there right now. NOTICE*- The GBA games (FE6, FE7, FE8) require a Wii Pro Controler if you would like to enjoy the full experience. It is still possible to play them, but the NES controller does not have bumpers.

Figured an asm or simple command for this already existed, but I haven't found anything. I just want Hector to fall asleep after talking to Eliwood or something stupid. Any help/direction is great as always.

I am new to hacking, so forgive me if these are basic questions that I have. I have looked through some tutorials and have a very basic grasp on what some of the more important programs do (Event Assembler, Nightmare, FEditor, etc.), but there's something I don't quite get: It's stressed that ROMs are illegal to send and not to do it, yet all that I have seen regarding making edits to FE7 involve altering a ROM of the desired game. Is there a way to compile these edits into a patch? So far, I have seen nothing that says/shows how to do this. Second: As I understand it, pointers refer to specific resources within the game's data (Character portraits/descriptions, conversation images, etc.) and therefore to change say, the background when Lyn is talking to you in the FE7 prologue, you change the pointer from the tent background to whatever you want it to be. My question: Is there a way to view a coherent/indexed list of pointers and what they refer to? How do I know to change the pointer in Event Assembler from 0x00 to 0x18 in order to have Lyn speak against the backdrop of a castle garden instead of her tent? Any help with these two questions would be most appreciated!

So I've been experimenting with the FE8 native instruments map by Circleseverywhere, and there is no string ensemble in FE8. I want to change this, so how do I take an instrument, such as string ensemble 1, from FE7 and put it in FE8 so I can use it with the instrument map?

Is there any way in FE7 to check a character's coordinates for use as a condition?

Hi I was hoping someone could help me with my face sprite. It's of my tactician in Blazing Sword I made her already but I'm having some issues with her in the game because of the positions. I tried so very hard to do this without requesting, but I got so frustrated with it I can't even think about it to much or I'll break my laptop lol. Most of the work is done for you so it won't be to much trouble. I just need someone to make her look good in the game. I kept getting her face to look longer, or it was very clear that her face was changing pictures to create an animation. I'l include the face sprite in here so you can fix her. Thank you so much :).

I'm trying to make a battle animation of a sprite I made for the tactician. I have the sprite sheet already made and now I'm in the process of putting it in the game to animate it. My issue is the FeAdv wont let me. I've been reading the Ultimate Tutorial by blazer which tells me I need 16 colors or less and a script with commands. In the tutorial Blazer kindly gave all the commands for you to copy and paste between the dash lines which I did. Blazer said to test out the standing frame first so put that in the game before you make any others. This is what I have been trying to do. I went over that Pdf constantly over 5 times trying to figure what I'm doing wrong and I'm at a complete loss here. Now on to my problem when I'm in the animation creator on FeAdv I load the script then press save to file. I get an error and I try again and again. Then I try something else I insert my standing frame and woo I finally get some progress guessing I was suppose to do that anyway right? >.< Then I load the script and click save to file and then I get Error incomplete animation! I tried it over and over going over my work seeing if I did anything wrong. I went through the check list blazer put and everything is correct as far as I can see. So can someone please help me out here? I'm really new at this to so forgive me for being a noob. UPDATE: Down in the replies I have added the script and screenshots so if anybody has the time I would really appreciate the help thank you in advance.

Is there a way to get an enemy unit to move to a specific tile? I've tried the MoveTo command but it seems like only certain tiles work for it.

This is my first post here on Serenes, and I might have just missed something obvious, so I apologize if this post is a needless one. I've been learning how to do a hack for a little while now, and I wanted to figure out how edit what happens with the Fallen Text loaders. From what I understand it checks the event IDs for specific dead characters and runs an event that shows a conversation and frees up that event ID. It doesn't look particularly difficult to edit, but it seems really time consuming. Has anyone made a more efficient way to do it?

I'm trying to create my own custom Mugshot or face sprite whichever name you prefer. I know you can just edit and photo shop the characters from the game but I wanted a pure custom one. So I created a face, but now I cant find any information on how to size it and make it into a full fire emblem face sprite. I'm looking for an easy simple way but if I must I'll go the hard way. Maybe I'm missing something super obvious. If I am I'm sorry >.< I'm still quite a noob at this hacking stuff so please bare with me. If anyone knows a site,program, or a diagram that will help me figure out the size and the cutting of the face along with the chibi face size please do tell. Thank you very much in advance.

Hello, fellow members of the FE community! I am proud to be announcing a large new up-and-coming Fire Emblem project. As you may be able to tell, it is a fandub of FE7 where we hope to voice a large chunk of supports as well as eventually the campaign. What you can do now is audition here: https://www.castingcall.club/projects/fire-emblem-7-the-voiceactening/. Auditions are submitted via sound files of all the audition lines recorded through a voice recorder like Audacity or a built-in one on your phone or PC. Auditioning for multiple to many characters is definitely recommended if not strongly advised. Should we pick you for one or more roles, you shall earn a spot in our private discord, where matters will be discussed further. Looking forward to hearing lots of voices and talent, -Daan Also, should you have any questions, refer to this E-Mail: fe7fandub@gmail.com

I've been working on some custom portraits for a while. However, even edited a thousand times I still feel something wrong with them. So if someone experienced in spriting could give me any suggestion, I would really appreciate it.
