Yeah I like DoaE2 sprites they're so cool. But soon I realized that Zhou Yu in Wu Ling was so damn hard too, Ji Mian combined with Hong Shui wiped me out terribly several times let alone Ji Rou. Although under such circumstances, I luckily managed to win since they didn't use these tactics in the last battle I fought with them. Man, that was an awful battle you put on.
Finally the Yuan family reunion, I imagine the two brothers embrace each other and cry out loud
DoaE gave birth to Huo Hu.

Go to Windows – Run – cmd. Then you should have access to use Feidian and then…php feidian.php -ci nes8,1,1008,0×70090 newsprites1.bmp yuanshumod.nes
Post me that link will ya? :) Does your sprite table REPLACE the current sprite tables or add to them? Do the new sprites also appear in Niahaks editor or do they not pull from the rom?

The new sprites DO NOT appear in DoaEditor at this time. Ie…you can't see them. But if you use LYS's table you can assign the sprites in the editor (just can't see em).
Quote:But soon I realized that Zhou Yu in Wu Ling was so damn hard tooSorry man lol. Thing is like in other mods I had to make Wu Ling tough so that people wait until they are done with Ji Zhou / Yuan Shao to do it.
Maybe I will reduce Kan Ze (Han Ze) or Cheng Pu's abilities / soldiers to make it easier next time I update.
Quote:Finally the Yuan family reunion, I imagine the two brothers embrace each other and cry out loudHaha, so you got Yuan Shao now? I should have had him cry with joy after losing and joining LYS. Shao is pretty good, probably a consideration to keep throughout the game.
Quote:Post me that link will ya?I did Penguin, scroll above. Download spritetable.tbl and then once you use Feidian to load the DoaE 2 sprite file into your rom, you will be able to access the sprites easily with DoaEditor.
Quote:The new sprites DO NOT appear in DoaEditor at this time. Ie…you can't see them.How do we go about getting the pictures in the rom? Obviously I see for Sprites there are 4 files for each sprite in the DoaEditor sprites folder (one for each color). Is there a way to pull these sprites from the rom so they can be shown there as a preview? I don't particularly care since I have most of them memorized.

Huo Hu's Adventure started Destiny of an Emperor hackingJust going through the intro until I finish up the Yuan Shao mod but… I was expecting something like "Are the father of the mighty benevolent unstoppable yuan shu?" and the guy spits out "are you Yuan Shu's dad?" lol, cracked me up!
Don't forget on officer names you can only fit 7 characters per line. Cheng Y uan Zhi is goofed up.
You have some text that needs a little fixing, particularly they keep switching between yellow scarves and yellow turbans.
I mentioned this on MidKnights mod as well that honestly I find this to be the HARDEST thing about a mod, making sure the text and story are consistent, clear, and unique. I found it out while modding as well that the TEXT has been the single most edited thing because of errors, wrong title, misspellings, punctuation, awkward sentences, corny lines, goofy replacements made due to officer name changes, etc. I at one point had every instance of "Liu Bei" replaced with "Gongsun Yue", totally screwed up everything!
Nice placement of yuan shu's castle, took me a while to figure out where I was XD I'm planning on my next MOD to learn how to do map/warp changes. I am assuming it is very similiar to moving battles though.
One last question, are they supposed to have red faces? Not that there is anything wrong with it :bon:
Would have to say I underestimated your mod. I ran out of food and money and couldnt beat the first castle lol
Cheng Y uan Zhi may be an udnerachiever, but you should meet his identical twin brother, Cheng Yuanzhi.
Seriously, his name (both according to KMA and wikipedia) is Cheng Yuanzhi; the name "Cheng Yuan Zhi" is just as wrong as "Zhu Ge Liang" and "Si Ma Yi".
Quote:Don't forget on officer names you can only fit 7 characters per line. Cheng Y uan Zhi is goofed up.Haha huohu Thing is, as wrong as the original DoaE is in some ways, I keep it that way. Zhu Ge Liang, Cheng Yuan Zhi, Wen Hun, all that good shit I keep in because it humors me.
Quote:You have some text that needs a little fixing, particularly they keep switching between yellow scarves and yellow turbans.This I will fix to the classic Yellow Scarves term.

Going through the text is a very thorough process. You have to 'test' how the text works just as you do battles.
Your Liu Bei / Gongsun Yue thing happened to me with Liu Ye / Liu Chan…I changed Liu Ye to Liu Chan in the editor (Luo Yang Gate 1), and I had Liu Ye take over Xu Zhe's spot. But then every reference to "Liu Ye" in Xu Zhe's spot actually went to Liu Chan in the text (eg. Liu Chan's mother is sick). So that was fun to have to go through and change all that.
Quote:Nice placement of yuan shu's castle, took me a while to figure out where I was XD I'm planning on my next MOD to learn how to do map/warp changes. I am assuming it is very similiar to moving battles though.Thanks huohu It was my first idea once map editing was possible. I used to go down in that corner when I first played the game to level up but of course it's un-used for anything outside of that.
Quote:One last question, are they supposed to have red faces? Not that there is anything wrong with itIt was my only option for some of them. Not all the character's portraits were configured to look good with white background (Yuan Yin's Sima Zhao portrait for example works with green but then Zhang Xun's Wei Yan doae2 portrait needed the orange to make it look decent). But I still thought it looked decent with orange or grey backgrounds so I didn't care too much for now. Will try to change it later.
Quote:Would have to say I underestimated your mod. I ran out of food and money and couldnt beat the first castle lollol nice. I made it so that Zhang Bao's fort battle is actually easier than the first Qing Zhou battle (with a potent Song Ren and Song Yong huohu ).
Quote:Seriously, his name (both according to KMA and wikipedia) is Cheng Yuanzhi; the name "Cheng Yuan Zhi" is just as wrong as "Zhu Ge Liang" and "Si Ma Yi".No Si Ma Yi in the game but you will still see Zhu Ge Liang, Tai Si Ci, Xia Hou Yuan, etc.

ULTIMATE HAPPINESS!
Wow that's awesome dude way to rep DoaE on the official Destiny of an Emperor forum of the interwebs.

Huo Hu's Adventure started Destiny of an Emperor hackingStarted playing this one again. I'm midway through chapter 3 right now.
The map edits are cool – I'm hungry for more. I also see that you incorporated a lot of new sprites & portraits. I like Lu Bu's sprite. I don't remember that one from the newsprites.bmp. One thing you've done that I haven't seen in any other mods is that every general you get is actually usable, at least for a time. In the first 2-3 chapters you get so many generals it's hard to find a way to use them, even in the original DoaE.
The enemy weapons are kinda weird to me. Some generals kinda randomly have tridents, sabres, clubs, etc… Seems like you gave some weaker guys big weapons (trident) to make them hit like someone who's actually good :)
Some of the text is brutal on poor Liu Bei. Young boys…ouch…lol… And "Huo Hu's story"… :lol: Chapter 3 is my favorite so far with the new cast of characters.
