FE8 but you can only use slim weapons (for the most part)

About three years ago, I had the thought, “I wonder how fe8 would feel if I could only use slim weapons?” So, I set out to make just that. I took a few creative liberties when adding new weapons, namely putting iron weapons in secret shops as well as giving out steel weapons in place of the S rank weapons in the story, but every non-secret shop and every weapon gotten from chests has been replaced by a slim variant, of which I made new ones with animations and icons from the repo.

The Tower of Valni and Lagdou Ruins remain untouched because they were scary, but the main campaign has been completely altered, including the removal of what I believe is every dropped item in the game.

Finally a good rebalance

Did you remember to edit the monster drop tables? IIRC, the wight reinforcements that Lyon calls in in the penultimate map use them.

I wasn’t able to find the monster drop tables, but I did find quite a few drops outside of them that I had missed when I uploaded this yesterday. There’s a new patch out now to get rid of those ones, but I need to leave for work in 10 minutes so I won’t have the time to go and find everything else.

Okay. I found a few more weapons that were dropped, and remembered to change the event that gives you the rapier in the prologue. This should hopefully be the last patch unless I find something else that changes it. I’m sorry.
