Yes I like that portrait!
Yes, definitely better. Sun Ce, don't use drugs again! XD
On a side note, sometimes I wonder if I'm the only one who doesn't use the dithering/anti-aliasing/whatever feature instead of leaving those pixels nice and square…
drugs, lol. Okay, MidKnighT, would you be up to making more sprites? I tried doing it once and it turned out a disaster… The ones that couldn't make it into the first sprite release would be awesome :)
Oh noes…it is soooooo tedious. I about went mad after the first set. LYS tried to do it and I think he ripped his hair out after a few :) If I feel like torturing myself I'll make more :)
So how are you going to remove Sun Jian somewhere along the plot so as to prevent the player from neither
1. Continue playing as him, messing up the storyline lol, or
2. Awkwardly throw him into billeting…
Neither, I'm planning on Sun Jian being our Tao Qiao replacement, and Sun Ce our Liu Bei replacement… ALTHOUGH… now you just reminded me that I can change the value of the officer removed thanks to MiDKnighT's excellent hacking guide…. Hmmm, now I have a new idea…
scratch that, it doesnt work… Unless Midknight can help me out on this one? I chnaged 3AEB5 from Lu Bu's hex to Liu Bei, but upon the ambush it doesnt remove him. What else am I missing?
There may be more to it to switch officers. The "FF" at 3AEB5 was only to prevent anyone from leaving. I hadn't tried switching it to a different officer.
Tried switching in Lu Bu in place of Liu Bei @ the intro, but when I tried entering the Yuan Shao battle, Lu Bu wasn't removed… I wonder, does the GEMSWORD event have to be triggered first in order for Lu Bu to switch or is that event totally independent of anything and just does a check to see if he's in your party?
New possible portrait
I had forgotten that ludmeister was thinking of doing a "Wu" mod in the Ieyasu thread. Maybe you should get with him on that?
If one of you doesn't do Wu…another idea is someone beefing up James' Cao Cao mod with all new stuff, map edits, portraits, etc… I doubt James would do it.
Drawing and correct coloring takes so much time, but once I get a few more pictures, I think I'll do this Wu mod.
Thanks, but credit really goes to all the compilers of the hacking code and the construction of the hacking guide which really put everything in a coherent enough of a manner where mods like this are now possible, even if not feasible heh.
I have officially started work on a Wu mod and am getting down the logistics of proper story progression. It wont be too hard once I get the first 3-4 chapter fleshed out, but that is proving the most troublesome atm. Will start a Wu thread momentarily*
If you feel up to the challenge, see if you can figure out how to convert some DOAE2 sprites to DOAE format. It would require use of paint or photoshop, but there are a number of sprites that would be great to use in these mods from DOAE2 that arent formatted yet. :-)

When we put the guide together I was hoping that some modders would take the info and run with it and it looks like you certainly have.
If nobody wants to do the sprites I might do it eventually but it might be a while… Perhaps if I'm working on another mod and want to add them (then I would share them of course). But it's a tedious job for sure. But then again maybe someone else has better graphics programs that would make it go faster.
