Huichelaar's Assembly Adventures

Alright, I’ve finished the cleanup. Not much changed above-the-hood, but you can now change some variables in the main FogDR.event file. Tell me if NPCs still show the icon.

I’ve also implemented @Vesly 's SetNearbyDangerRadius.

SkillsTest.emulator_01
It’s fixed now

That sounds really cool.

More playing around with battle animation stuff ~~makes Jack a dull boy~~ or leads to this:

Hey, man, it’s cool to see you still working on cool stuff! Just remembered a couple of stuff I wanted to say. Since you updated the dangerzone to make it better a little while ago, I think you should probably integrate that droppable item thingie into it as well. I have no idea how it works at all anymore (and didn’t even when I kinda made it), and I think you’d be better at maintaining it if you make more updates to dangerzone. Also, I just wanted to say that I think dangerzone conflicts with the Less Annoying Fog hack by Leonarth. I could be wrong, but if this makes sense to you, maybe look into it. Anyway, cool stuff as always, and I look forward to seeing what you do next

Huichelaar · June 11, 2021, 10:02pm

Yeah could be. I’ll have a look.

Edit: It should now no longer conflict. Newest version on the github.

I get this error when I try to install it, can you help?

Error

If you replace the contents of Memory manipulation.txt in Event Assembler/Language Raws with this, does it work?

Fates-Blade · July 18, 2021, 7:59am

Thank you this fixed the problem.

Fates-Blade · July 18, 2021, 8:09am

There’s a bug that causes the game to soft reset when trying to enter the Tower of Valni with the Suspend x2 hack.

Huichelaar · July 18, 2021, 8:31am

Thanks, I’ll look into it!

Huichelaar · July 18, 2021, 10:20am

Alright, it should be fixed now. Could you redownload it and try again?

Fates-Blade · July 20, 2021, 5:41pm

Thanks, the Tower of Valni and Lagdou Ruins work but my Text ID at $255 was Fiend and has become s s s s s s monster now oddly also other text IDs were changed too.

Huichelaar · July 20, 2021, 6:12pm

Yeah, the patch is repointing the text table and adding new entries. I don’t think it’s very compatible with FEBuilder, unless you remove the text Suspendx2 is trying to insert and replace the references to text entries with placeholders, then, after inserting the patch, insert new text entries in FEBuilder and replace the placeholders with these.

IIRC there’re FEBuilder patches which allow you to kill the autosave feature or even make a backup save. Maybe those would be a better fit.

Fates-Blade · July 27, 2021, 7:09pm

There is a minor graphical bug with the
“Suspend x2” hack’s undo graphic on the
second menu screen that makes the top
disappear if a player uses Erase Data or
Copy Data then Resume Chapter.

Huichelaar · July 27, 2021, 8:27pm

I can reproduce this. I think I know why this happens. Thanks for telling me. I’ll fix this soon!

EDIT: Alright, should be fixed now. Tell me if it works, @Fates-Blade.

Blazing_Wolfos · August 10, 2021, 3:28pm

When Trying to install I get 126 errors that are all variants of this: “File Fort.event, Line 11, Column 2: Symbol Lv20x9 isn’t in scope”, I tried installing it with a clean ROM as well and the same result, is it an issue with EA? I have SkillSystems installed if that makes any difference

Huichelaar · August 10, 2021, 9:14pm

I’m not sure how this happens. I didn’t get these errors when I ran it through EA. I’m guessing Fort.event refers to FE8Fortresses/Structs/Fort/Fort.event?

Could you gimme your version of EA?

Blazing_Wolfos · August 11, 2021, 2:52pm

I’ve been using the latest version 11.1.3. When I tried to install the WMSprites I got the error that the command FILE wasn’t found if that helps you figure out what the issue could be
