It’s no big deal. I didn’t actually look at the hack’s credit list; I just remembered seeing one of my mugs in a screenshot you posted, as well as knowing about your general plan of “use all the F2U stuff”.
Whatever the case, thanks for fixing it!
I understand. I do agree that I would’ve like more money (not an absurd amount like F9 but just a bit more like make the red gems be 1k instead of 5 hundred. Small increases like that.) it’s not required, just something I would’ve preferred. My biggest issue is def the exp restrictions in a hack with so many characters I WANT to use and see grow, plus with a fatigue system that is perfect for shuffling units in and out, but realistically can’t because the exp gains are too low. Even with the scrolls and the more OP units I never felt like I was too strong for the enemy, if anything sometimes I felt they were stronger than me.
Again this is just my preference/opinion. The hack is creative and cool with its wacky story i just wish the exp wasn’t so strict.
SGW V1.31 is now out at the usual link. It fixes some major bugs and balance issues, so be sure to update! https://www.dropbox.com/s/ck6l6c5ri3fwhon/SGW_Complete.zip?dl=0
The changelog is below:
V1.31:
SGW V1.32 is now out at the usual link. It fixes some minor bugs and adds in some balance changes, so be sure to update! https://www.dropbox.com/s/ck6l6c5ri3fwhon/SGW_Complete.zip?dl=0
I am hoping this is the last update for awhile, so I apologize there were so many in quick succession as of late.
V1.32:
I have also begun work on Lunatic Mode. Lunatic mode will not be designed for first time players and will be for people familiar with the game’s mechanics, characters, and events. Do not expect lunatic mode to be a mode filled with stat and skill bloat. It will be a mode that restricts resources (there will be no exp or total enemy changes though), makes certain enemies/bosses more tricky to kill, changes up some enemy positions where possible, give them different items, and hopefully make for an experience that is more challenging than hard mode, but still fair.
SGW now has it’s third LP, this time by known FE speedrunner Vykan12: https://www.twitch.tv/vykan12
He streams almost everyday at 3 PM EST, so if you have the time be sure to check him out!

In the now trinity of people LPing SGW. If you do your own LP of SGW, be sure to let me know and I’ll be happy to share a link!
SGW V1.4 is now out. This update came about due to feedback I got from a wide swath of people, and for that I am truly grateful to those who provided feedback. This update is largely just balance changes and some minor QOL improvements. The balance changes are primarily for some FOW chapters, among other things.
As always, the update can be found here: Dropbox - SGW_Complete.zip - Simplify your life
The change log is below:
V1.4:
- Added prep screen to chapter 4 and 5
- Dialogue added to chapter three to explicitly mention what an enemy force is
- Added torch staff to chapter 15 and 17 prep menu
- Fixed issue with Odo and hezul scroll icons
- Made dragon slaying weapons more expensive (they were 500 before)
- Made the Fog gradually lessen every couple of turns in chapter 3
- Weakened certain reinforcements in chapter 3
- Janet and Nicole now automatically have their fatigue set to 0 at the start of chapter 12
- Made minor positioning adjustments in chapters 15 and 16
- Added secret shop to chapter 16
- Weakened solar shine magic users in chapter 16
- Lowered hero boss leadership by 1 in chapter 16
- Adjusted number of flying enemies in chapter 17
- Slightly buffed magic of non-magic units in chapter 19
- Enemy boss in final chapter now has 6 skills instead of 7
- Final boss had slight adjustments made to stats
- Nihil now negates double lion
- Lowered Camel mov and HP, and gave them a different skill than outdoor fighter
- Lowered enemy pirate HP and str
- Made adjustments to class movement sounds to improve on some and fix missing ones in others
- Entombed/Mummies are now Muscle type
- Fixed bug where enemy executioners and hell dragons had 5 class power
- Lowered all tier 3 player class power to 4 (this means promoting to tier 3 no longer has an exp penalty)
Unless there is a major bug, this will be the last update before lunatic mode releases. Enjoy!
Super excited about the no exp penalty for tier 3 >>>>>>>>
Yeah, I don’t think it’s the kind of thing that will change the overall balance enough to matter.
That’s why I use Crazycolor’s Fates Exp asm hack, which can be found in the “unified hacking dropbox”.
If a unit is 8 lvls greater than the enemy, they’ll gain 0 exp. In fe8 it’s typically ~20 lvl difference to gain only 1 exp, which is way too big.
I think that’s a bit too much for me. 8 levels higher is probably -24 exp on average. But you really shouldn’t ever be 8 levels higher.
For me, it means I can hand out unlimited exp, yet units will never become too overpowered, and you can never steamroll enemies with a single unit. (And on hard mode >=6 levels = 0 exp.)
Do as you will, but personally I think the fe8 exp formula is really bad and I’d always encourage people to look into alternatives or make their own. Except hacks where they want you to build super units to solo things, I guess.
This hack doesn’t use the standard exp formula, but the fixed one. You typically get 30 exp per kill if you are the same level, and then 3 less every level higher you are. That is a pretty cool hack, though and I recommend people use it.
I could work it into my hack as well, probably.
V1.42 is now up. It contains a potentially important bug fix! There was no formal announcement for V1.41 as it was made within a day of V1.40 and had very minor updates. The changelog for these two versions is as follows:
V1.42:
V1.41:
As always, the update can be found here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/ck6l6c5ri3fwhon/SGW_Complete.zip?dl=0
i found a bug Evan staff rank doesn’t increase at all
This is not a bug. Staff rank in SGW only increases through promotion.
With permission of Blademaster, Sun God’s Wrath is now available on Emblemier PatchUp:
Happy early new year! SGW V1.5 is now live at the usual link: https://www.dropbox.com/s/ck6l6c5ri3fwhon/SGW_Complete.zip?dl=0
V1.5 has the most changes of any release so far and is the last release I will be making this year unless a game breaking bug is reported.
V1.50:
As mentioned in the change log, there are minor graphical bugs with five spells after I performed a ROM rebuild to make more space be available to complete a few of the updates in this patch. As such, the next update I hope to release will fix these minor issues, but with how many other fixes this patch has (including to one game breaking bug) I didn’t want to delay the release over something so small.
The biggest changes to V1.5 is that you can capture more enemies, enemy leadership has typically been lowered, and promoted units gain even more exp than before.
I also want to take this opportunity to thank everyone that has supported and played SGW. It’s been around half a year since the first release, and the feedback and support I’ve gotten on the hack and how to improve it has been overwhelming. I can never thank you all enough for taking the time to play this hack and provide feedback! It makes all the time I spent working on it more than worth it! This has been a challenging year for everyone in some way or form, so I hope SGW was able to provide even the smallest bit of joy to you during these troubled times!
Here’s to 2021!
My sincere apologies for the double post. There was a game breaking bug with V1.5 that has now been fixed. Please download V1.51 that fixes the bug at the usual link: https://www.dropbox.com/s/ck6l6c5ri3fwhon/SGW_Complete.zip?dl=0
V1.51:
We have our first 0% LP! Tez is doing a 0% growth rate LP that can be found here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zg7R_OIjbpo&list=PLR0kOFrq7gs1rc7hgDBd6b4mHNljUgHmV&index=1
While the prologue is pretty simple in 0% growths, the later chapters will be sure to be more exciting, so I look forward to his progress!
And on that note, happy new year again everyone! I’m always happy to share LPs anyone wants to do and I look forward to any that start next year!
