[FE8] [Complete] Fire Emblem: Vision Quest (v3 by Pushwall - 1-Oct-22)

Yeah was going to say, using the old version’s save would definitely had issues. Glad you got through it and that you had a good time.

Kitozawa’s theme name came courtesy of its author, Chair. I recall when I first wrote him that I wanted an edgy swordmaster type that talked like he was the protagonist of his own story. He can be taken as seriously as you want to take him imo.

Love seeing the final team - always cool to see who people gravitate towards.

The foreign names are just that - foreign. Onderdonk is a Dutch surname. Zuljalal is Malay or Indonesian (as is most of Kuching). Most of the hack names come from Malaysia, Indonesia, Holland, Eastern Europe, Hawaii, Japan, and Russia (Barring the more American names and of course, food.) - The names that sound foreign are def all real, though!

Thanks for the feedback! Really appreciate the kind words.

I tested everything in mGBA so I’d try that. Not sure what would be the issue in that chapter outside of issues potentially with range/escape events.

New patch available here and in the first post.

Fixes are mostly minor, but the biggest fix is for AI lag. @HyperGammaSpaces made a fix to that drastically improves game speed and AI lag. It makes the dense chapters feel so much smoother!

Other fixes include

  • The mysterious longbow halberdier tent in 3-3 is gone. Some garbage data was loading in. It’s now a lance cavalier.
  • Enemies in 4-3 are now accurately labeled as unpromoted so some reinforcement stats will be fixed.
  • Text updates.
  • Titus is now forced in 4-1.

Thanks!

I’m not a pro, but I use NUPS and you need a US FE8U ROM.

Hey I just started and I’m stuck at the end event of 1-3. I have tried to let the game progress naturally as well as spamming start to skip it but I still get a black screen regardless. What should I do? Also fantastic hack so far, I can’t wait to play more once I get past this issue.

Been playing this on lunatic mode and just finished chapter 6. Really appreciate the effort that goes into designing each of the maps. I really enjoyed how sneaky it was that some of the random units on the map had nice stealables. Like the freaking PRIEST next to the boss that had an angelic robe. Really rewards people who take time to look around and use their thieves for vision.

I’m hoping I don’t regret burning through both my rescue and my warm staves to quickly level up my healers. 40 exp per use is too hot to pass up.

Glad to hear you’re enjoying! Warp and rescue were designed to be used early - so don’t feel like you ‘need’ them for the latter part of the game. Can be great to have of course, but certainly not punishing for using early.

My favorite so far has to be chapter 5; I love how it’s pretty clear from the start that Lesley will appear if you take too long. Luckily with some turtling and some fun RNG manipulation I was able to kill Lesley haha.

Lunatic Lesley kill… even if save stating it’s very hard
(tho I regret not to play on hard mode)

My guess for what happens in VQ2

Hey This is probably a common bug but It’s after 3 or 4 (cant remember rn.) That the screen just goes dark and I cant progress. Can I have a quick fix?

Are you on the latest patch?

It could be emulator related. I usually skip past it if I encounter it.

Hey, love the hack so far! Two questions:

  1. Is their a map event on 2-3 (Future Sight) where the arrow is (top left of the map) or is it just a bug?

  2. For 2-7 are there more than the 6 logs you initially see? I had 6 team members rescue them but when I seize the map I didn’t get any reward.

The map arrow in future sight indicates the thieves’ escape point, doesn’t it?
