Is it ok for me to join the discord to get the guide and post it here and then leave the server?
I would prefer the guide to stay in the discord please!

You can patch romhacks on mobile and play on a mobile emulator, yes.

Hey everyone! It’s been about 5 days since Illuminated has released and I’ve been overjoyed with the support! It has seen over 500 downloads across the mediums it has been released and I hope people are enjoying it so far! Thanks to all of those giving feedback, both here and in the discord!
I’m working on putting together a patch with some bug fixes. Nothing in it is hugely impactful but corrects an animation script error or two, adjusts a level or two of a few enemies, and nothing story wise is added (so if you are currently rolling through with no problems, feel free to continue). However, with the next patch will be an optional way to skip the “stealth” portion of potentially one of the most divisive chapters in the hack. So if you have been playing and have found yourself stuck on this chapter, I’ll have relief coming for you soon.
Thanks for reading and thanks for playing!

That’s kind of you to say and comments like these make the whole hack process all the more worth it! Thank you @Memetastor !

This is one of my first romhacks that isn’t just a hack of an existing game and i’m having a blast i’m glad i started on casual because i wouldn’t have been able to keep this small cast alive, also the desert + fog map was so evil

Hey plokm21, glad you’re enjoying the game and that it offered you an optimal way to engage with it. Also, welcome to the FEU community! Happy to have you here and you will find no shortage of good hacks in FEU. Hope Illuminated treats you well the rest of the way (the desert+fog map is a bit evil haha) and if I can answer anything for you, please don’t hesitate to ask!
Edit: Also, I’ve added a new patch to the OP. It is version 1.0.1. It includes some of the bug fixes mentioned above as well as some fresh new palettes courtesy of @Fomortiis (thank you!!). It also contains a bug fix (I hope) to a small issue popping up in Chapter 25.
There is still a small issue (not that it is a huge one) of some players gaining access to the Chapter 24x gaiden while not fulfilling the requirements to do it. Enjoy it while you can, I for the life of me cannot find out why this is happening but I will! If you come across Chapter 24 and find your way into 24x without fulfilling the requirement (it is related to a certain cave at the bottom of the map), please let me know!
Before this update i could start the game in fixed growths mode (using flag EF ON) just fine, but now it stops working? It looks like some flags were shifted around so flag EF is in use now when before it used flag EE. I understand i might not be playing the hack as intended but is there any way to fix it to work as it did before?
I could probably force a solution through myself but i’m worried about breaking a few windows doing it since i can’t figure out what that part of the events are doing.
Hi Harperers, when you say before this update, do you mean from 1.0.0 to 1.0.1? Or from a previous version to 1.0.0?
You’re correct that old versions (before I completed the game) used Flag EE but I realized that because this flag is also used with damage numbers, I had to change this. I don’t have fixed growths as part of a normal feature so I chose Flag EF instead. Can I ask how you’re including Fixed Growths into Illuminated (as in the process of how you’re actually importing the feature)? I’m a bit unfamiliar with it and know that trying to include Fixed Growths through the FeBuilder patch never worked for me because my skillsystems build is very old and kinda custom as this point.
The flag in Illuminated is a marker of sorts for players who have beaten the game and started NG+ on their save file. This flag does not do too much and I think you should still be good to incorporate Fixed Growths into the game from a fresh New Game and use this flag regardless. While some chapters do indeed reference the flag, it shouldn’t cause you any problems as you playthrough.
Hopefully that is the case. If you have any issues, please let me know. Good luck!
Hi, how is the status of this project? Is it possible to play from start to finish?
Yep, the project is finished! Good luck, have fun!

I was upgrading from patch 4.2.0.0 to 1.0.1
The febuilder patch specifically doesnt work if you are using the skillsystem patch, as skillsystem has integrated fixed growths on its own.
If you add a Flag ON EF to the beginning of a hack like this it usually will just work for the rest of the hack as long as the flag stays on.
It’s entirely possible that the fixed growths flag never worked on this hack at all and i was deluding myself into believing it did, since usually i just set the flag and it works without me having to be suspicious of it.
