[FE7] Fire Emblem: The Blazing Blade REMASTERED (FE7 Reskin)

Fire Emblem: The Blazing Sword Remastered is a visual hack, no other things in the game were changed asides from making all the campaigns available from the beginning and various changes in graphics. You should be able to use an old savegame on this version! You can use this hack to give your Ironman challenge a new graphical experience.

FE7Remastered X QoL: Using the previous path as a base, this version includes some gameplay and Quality of Life changes. It adds magic weapons (Levin Sword and Wind Spear), Fighters change into Heroes instead of Warriors, Rebecca change into a Nomad Trooper, support gains from far and quicker (specially in late game characters). Characters have a 10% more of growth in all stats, bows are now part of the weapon “triangle”, being effective against any kind of magic, Pent can use Bolgaronne (since he’s the pupil of Athos), the S rank weapons become effective against the dragon, Wallace has been rebalanced to make him useful (he begin as a level 20 knight, so if he appears as a General he has better stats), Nino begins at level 10 for the sake of supervivency and Jaffar appears at level 20 as an NPC, but when you recruit him he has his normal level, you can steal the silver card in Eliwood mode, the Lockpicks durability has been doubled (but not the price), the experience gain has been increased a little. For the sake of testing I included some cheat weapons in the first shops of the game and I leaved them if you want to test things or play for the story (they have the text “You’re a cheater” in their descriptions).

FE7RemasteredX QoL - Paladin Special: A 2025 update! The same as the previous one. Someone gently asked me to change the sprites used for Paladins because he didn’t like Paladins looking like Ephraim, so I made this versión and I like the result.

FE7Remastered X QoL Challenge: The weapon triangles are now three times more effective and the crit bonus of Swordmasters and Berserkers is doubled (matching the bonus in Binding Blade). This will make the game easier in some parts, but in others where some enemies has two type of weapons it can be tricky.

I have a couple of questions just out of curiosity. Are these backgrounds from the Final Fantasy? Looks like it for me.

They look good, but what they have to do with the Fire Emblem 7?
I think it makes sense, when you create your own hack with your own story or something like that. But as i can see here, it’s just a reskin for better graphics. And i suppose it must be graphics from the fire emblem 7 (just better quality or something), not from another game.

You have all in the credits section, the backgrounds are from Final Fantasy games, the new animations and icons are made by the community and I credit everyone. As you say (and as you can see in the title), it’s only a reskin of the game. I plan to make a version with a few gameplay changes, for fun, changing some things and adding some QoL changes (for example, related with Supports in the game).

Sorry, i didn’t notice that.
But what about background mismatches with map tiles (like city, castle, etc.)? Or will you replace them too?

I’ve change the backgrounds, but didn’t put off the tiles, since a character can attack another from different tiles, so they work in the same way they do in the original game, you see the background related to the tile of the left part.

Ohhhhh I like this! Been a while since I played FE7 and I’d love to revisit a more remastered/refined version. Looking forward to this.

You’re welcome! I did thinking in those people that play Ironman runs with the animations on. If you stream, let me know, I want feedback!

Well

But always glad to have more.

FE is the best game ever created.

Some real nice backgrounds here! If i ever play fe7 again, I’ll try this out!

Didn’t knew about that one, sounds better than mine! I didn’t know about it and I should check it. Anyway, another reason to create this hack is to use as a base to another hacks. I have one in mind with a few gameplay and QoL changes (FE7RemasteredX) and another one only for fun with silly things on it like the the recruits from the Spanish translation of FE: Shadow Dragon (FE7RemasteredXX).

Interesting…

Is this complete?

I guess your native language it’s spanish but I’m gonna talk in english , i think the backgrounds you are using in your game are from Final Fantasy Games , if that’s true let me know it and it would be very great imo. Maybe without those floors and just the background would looks better. Congrats and good luck with your hack

It is! Enjoy!

I leaved the tiles because there’re some cases the background alone wouldn’t fit, like the sea background, sometimes you’re on a boat, sometimes you’re a pegasus or a pirate in the sea, but I know there’s a patch to take out the tiles. I took them off in my Fire Emblem 8 hack (Heroes Crossover), but I had to do a bit of extra work because of that. And yes, those are Final Fantasy backgrounds, all is in the credits, I credited the ones who ripped them from the games. :slightly_smiling_face:

I’ve changed some sprites (Fighters and Thieves) and a background, updated in the credits.

Will it have a translation into Spanish or some other language?

The plot is just FE7, I don’t really see a point for a spanish traslation if you can just pull up the game’s spanish script?

Assuming this is still in production, the plot isn’t planned to be vanilla Fe7
Additionally the OP has stated they’re not an English native speaker, likely Spanish given this comment

Just Finish Lynn Mode. Moving on to Hector Mode. I can already say that this is exactly what I wanted in a Visual Remastered of FE7. Same old gameplay with updated and better looking sprites and model . Thank you for making this hack!
