[FE8] Stones of a Divine Dragon V1.3 is no longer being updated ever. Plot is fully explained in 1st post

The tile to where I’m moving my unit. I give them an order to move and they walk there on the map, then right as they stop and I’d ordinarily get the menu to heal, attack, wait etc. the game resets.

The reset also seems to happen if I try to have a unit wait on the tile they start on, even if it’s the first unit I try to do anything with.

Enemy phase works normally, though. No resets there.

Alright V1.12 is out! download link main post

When FEBuilder updated it messed up Ch.7 so there was like 186 errors all about talking and crap like that…

The Arrow in Ch.7 is the Thieves escape point, I was gonna remove it, but since It’s an open desert map
you don’t know which direction they are gonna leave, so I just left it in there.

ANYWHO, these are all the changes I did in like 1day
These changes are mostly because enemies are getting really strong and hitting hard,
so I want your defenses to be a little higher.

Alright V1.12 is out! download link main post

v.1.12 is over the size of 32 MB.

GBA can not be executed because it has a limit of 32 MB.
Since 0x1650000 are blanks, I think that to erase from here.

If you do not understand well,
if you send me a message with discord, I will send the modified file.

When FEBuilder updated it messed up Ch.7 so there was like 186 errors all about talking and crap like that…

If the result of FELint is incorrect, please contact me.

Also, although you do not have to do it now, if ROM capacity approaches 32 MB, try Rebuild.
It seems that can compress to 0x105AD10.
However, because play test is necessary, doing it is much better later.

Is this Lawful Good VS Chaotic Evil?

How to pass chapter 9? ;-;

Best Roiman, seize his castle.
Sieze the castle in the island where Tana was.
Beat Gilvan, seize his castle / visit village for 9x

The problem with chapter nine isn’t that it’s broken as such, but that the level 20 Sacaens by Gilroy’s castle spawn at turn 1 and hunt you down.

insert surprised pikachu meme
Alrighty the issues with the Saceans in ch9 have been fixed! New download link is in the main post.

What was supposed to happen, was they were invisible until you approached the castle, then they popped out and ambushed you. I thought that was scummy to punish you for exploring, So I just made them always there, AND we saw what happened there…

Anyhow, now we area version 1.13, because I don’t have time to make new chapters will all the mess ups I’m doing. So, have these slew of balance changes!

Mostly the OUTLAW has been added as a class. Assassins can wield Swords/Bows along with Outlaws. They can both steal and use lockpicks. Outlaw is the promotion from Thieves/Huntress.
Also Gilroy has been promoted! He is no longer a General, he is a Marshall! (uses Baron animations from FE4).

Here is Neimi as your only playable Outlaw (so far).

If you want more indepth patch notes, it will be in the first post after the Main Post. Also it’s included in the download.

* Supports have been added in the game, every character has 3 support options (very little have less then 3). Support

* Belle is a new female mage who joins with Ewan in Ch.4, Belle comes with Holy Flames / Elfire and a Talisman at lv.5
* L’arachel also joins with a Psychic (removed Mend) to replace Saleh’s.

UNIT CHANGES

All units have proper death quotes! (y-yay?)
Name-----------HP-------MAG-----SKL-----SPD----LUK–DEF–RES–TOTAL
Ewan -(OLD)–65(+15) 60(+15) 45(+5), 70(+35) 50 25(+10) 45(+5) 360(+85)
Ewan -(NEW)-70(+20) 60(+15) 80(+40) 50(+15) 40 30(+15) 40(+0) 370(+95)
Belle -(NEW)- 60 -------80 -------50 -------70 -------35- 50------- 25----- 370

Now Ewan is more niche/uniqe and Belle fits the role of the heavy hitting mage since only Lyon had the role previously.

Hey man, just two things (for now):

  1. I love the work you’ve been doing. you gotta aim for completion, cause i’ll go nuts if you don’t.
  2. i’m at chapter 7 (desert). is there no hidden treasure? cause i’ve been searching but can’t seem to find any.

Yeah there is no desert treasure. I know people like item hunting, but I feel like it’s been around for a while and everyone would have found all the stuff before hand so I didn’t add in any.

Also for completion I got hella distracted at work for a while and then got involved in another game maker and I kinda forgot about this one… I’m probably gonna start working on it again real soon, but I only have one day off a week and this is now my side project. So I’ll probably not update it as often, but I’ma truck through.

thanks for responding… Work is such a buzz kill man. But hey, we just gotta do what we must. Still, I appreciate the work you’ve done here with this hack, and whatever you may do for it in the future. The story is really refreshing.

So for all those following this hack (why?) basically it’s been cancelled like officially and I updated the first post (not the main one) With the entire plot I had planned out from Ch.14 where it left off to Ch.26 the end. Read through it if you wanted to know what happened.

I don’t know how to beat the Mansel stage could someone explain this to me
Im not seeing a seize option on the forte The dark mage was on am I missing something

Bottom right of the map there should be a boss bishop. Stand on his fort with L’arachel I believe. If not her try Lyon, then Ephraim / Eirika.
