Hi Niahak,
I didn’t see anything. Can you send to midknightfalconfan@gmail.com ?
MiDKnighTModeratorSomeone is looking for help on the DOAE Discord about this one:
“I seem to be stuck in this one. I have the HH powder and I think I cleared all the places that we under attack. Got the 2 kids and the guy on the throne cries about fluffy being killed. Don’t know where to go from here”
Paging sonic!
MiDKnighTModeratorYep by chapter 8 pretty much everyone has Zhang He in their party.
MiDKnighTModeratorI remember calling a 1-900 number when I was a kid to find where Chi-Tu-Ma was. I thought my mother was going to kill me when the phone bill came in. lol
I called the hotline when I was lost in the tower of Babel in Final Fantasy IV. I think I made myself scarce the day the phone bill came.
For DOAE I watched my then brother in law play it first so I saw the places he got stuck and learned :) I remember dreaming of taking the next castle, couldn’t wait to continue playing it. To this day DOAE is one of the most addictive games I’ve ever played.
MiDKnighTModeratorMiDKnighT, I asked it a bit ago but did we ever figure out why Wang Gui/Zhou Chao in the original DoaE are sometimes not in their spots in Luo Yang and Chang An respectively?
Yes. The original game was kinda weird with that. You had to have already recruited another officer(s) for Zhou Cang to show up. The original DOAE would punish you for not recruiting people and reward you if you did recruit people with more recruits. I documented here:

MiDKnighTModeratorHello! I’m enjoying the mod but I seem to be stuck. It might even be a bug? After defeating Gongsun Zan I’m told to find a monk in the castle (I’m guessing I need him to get rid of the water in that cave?) but I absolutely cannot find him! I found the hidden bow by the well, I tried going around the city, I went around the city on the world map looking for this monk but I can’t find anything. Please help? great mod btw! I look forward to playing more if I can get past this.
A few people have gotten stuck there and a few people thought it was a bug. But no, Boneduke was just evil with his map updates lol. I can assure you Mr. Monk is near the town and not on the world map.

-
* The boxes would have preview pics of where you are on the map (kinda like battles page and places page).
* The bottom half of the screen would be grayed out unless there are related warps (for example Guan Ping cave has 3 warps associated with it – one entrance and two exits).
* Warp number = assigned warp number in DOAEditor
* Cave Warp? = self explanatory
* Warp location = warp location in the ROM in case you want to manually look.
* Source Address = mailing address of the first address in the warp.
* Destination Address = mailing address of the second address in the warp.
* Party Orientation = which direction should the party be facing once they step through the warp?
* Place ID = what location ID are we traveling to?
* Set Destination to Place ID = Read a text table and set the destination address to the default place address.If you have feedback about the layout, please speak now or forever hold your peace :)
MiDKnighTModeratorWe have 12 people in the Discord channel so far.
MiDKnighTModeratorWhatever works Niahak. I’ll tell you more about the warp screen I envision. When you right click on a warp right now it gives the option to select the warp (to move it). I want to also add an “edit warp” option which brings up a pop up screen. There you would see and be able to edit the warp location and destination with map previews for each. Would also want to add another couple of warps in the same format at the bottom of the form in case it is a cave warp. Cave warps usually have 1 or 2 more warps after it. If it’s not a cave warp those extra 2 warps will be disabled / greyed out. That would give the modder more control over warps and prevent the issues that Boneduke was having with cave warps where things were getting overwritten (right now cave warps automatically update the warp after the cave entrance warp).
MiDKnighTModeratorI’ll post about it on Facebook too.
MiDKnighTModeratorHey all, I’m back-ish at least for now. Life is busy and I can’t make any guarantees about new features (much less any timeframes if I were to implement them – time in front of a computer for DoaEditor stuff would be pretty limited).
From what I recall, the tech involved is pretty limited but it might be possible to rewire to a kind of “paint dropper” feature i.e. you choose the 2×2 terrain you want, and can click-drag across multiple tiles to set all of them to that 2×2 block. Is that what you’re looking for when you say a pencil tool DragonAtma?
Hi Niahak,
Long time no see. Before you write any enhancements let me know and I can check in what I have. I was working on fixing some map / graphics update stuff and add a warp editing screen. Your update sounds cooler so if you’re ready to code I can go ahead and check my stuff in which is not done yet.
MiDKnighTModeratorAdded something to the RH guide about this:
http://doaerhguide.wikidot.com/start#toc11
In theory you could have up to 8 people working on a ROM.
In my opinion since there are already a lot of ROMs out there we should be working on quality not quantity :)
MiDKnighTModeratorWhat is your TP when this happens?
EDIT: I think I see now – if you have high TP and plan a lot it rolls over to 0 right? Hmm….will have to think about how to handle this.
EDIT2: I think I have it fixed now. If you are using a PC to play you can fix your ROM like this.
EDIT3: One more fix…

MiDKnighTModeratorNew revision.
LYS can you use this one for the ROMS thread?
