Help Promoting a Character During A Cut-scene in FE7

[Alondite_99]

During this Chapter, one of my units needs to promote to his next class during a cutscene at the end. I was looking around and could not find what the command would be to trigger such a scene. I’ve attached my code below as well if that would help.

PROM do not exist in FE7?

[LPFan]

Is the character who needs to be promoted the mainlord? because I think that is the only event that can be used to promote a character without doing some weird kind of asm-thingy.

[Alondite_99]

How would I use the PROM command?
Would it be:
PROM 0x03

[Alondite_99]

Yes the character is the main lord of my game. Is there a specific command for that?

[LPFan]

yes, it is used in the cutscene where eliwood/hector promotes at the end of…I think the chapter was cog of destiny. If I recall correctly, the command was just called something like “force hero promotion”, but do not qoute me on that.

[Alondite_99]

I think I found it! The command is
PromoteMainChar //Promotes the Main Lord

I’ll try this out and close the question if it works!

[Alondite_99]

Okay, It started the class up but then the text started to go off and it used the boss as the old class and the dragon character I was using as the advanced class. Kind of confusing to describe, but it seems big broken. Would you know why it would be doing this?

EDIT:
Here is some screenshots explaining the issue better. After I beat the boss the scene plays normally until the promotion scene. The “unit” that is being promoted is the boss I had just beaten.

Meanwhile they promote into the characters class who I used to beat this boss (my Eliwood Lord)

Do you know why this may be happening or any other ways to promote the correct character in Fe7?

[Alondite_99]

Ill mark this part as solved as LPFan gave me the help to my question! Thank you all so much!
