I just have a few little things I'm finally getting around to in my HOD hack.
1. I notice that Juste's character shares a palette with blood and hearts. Cam I repoint his character palette to some free space to have different colors? (My belnades hack has his coat, blood and hearts all dark blue and I want them separated.
2. I'm sure I've mentioned this before, but can we change Juste and Maxim's code to make Maxim the main character (in a hex editor without cheating) or would we have cutscene issues then?
3. Finally, and this is just an attempt on my part, I wish we could cycle through the subweapons like we dp the spell books, but since that doesn't seem to be possible, I'm using dsvania to add my favorite subweapon/book combos to the blank slots of the books that don't do anything.馃槂

Can I ask why we here know nothing about it? I got cutscene bugs with Maxim even with cheat engine. Only some cutscenes load up properly. No idea what is the reason. You can make sub-weapon switcher with cheat engine (Maxim can use Hydro Storm too), but that would be PC only. GBA emulators have gamesharks, but I have no idea about how to work with them & need to use existing buttons for switch.

Anyways, I not like Maxim player version in HoD & have no idea how to use boss one, which is higher quality anyways. Maybe we update my old Maxim import in AoS?

Gotcha. I'm kind of AOS'd out and wanted to try more with HOD. I can understand that. HoD lacking modded stuff. But I not sure, maybe it would work to EDIT game instead of adding story for Maxim mode. I mean change castle, make non RPG mode (enemies with edited stats, give no EXP = preset difficulty, Maxim mode is pretty bad in that regard anyways), make both forms of Dracula availible for Maxim, maybe even add Juste as a boss... Also edit voice of player Maxim to match boss one at least.

I just need the dialogue to happen in events. Don't even need Maxim to show up since the dialogue will be in his head. Just need him to fight himself and both draculas at the end. No IDEA how to do that...

Harmony of Dissonance commands are hard (slow/bad movement) I recently played a very good hackrom with Julius Belmont I highly recommend - www.romhacking.net/hacks/325/It's interesting how he can set an even higher speed than Maxim, but I still have my cons with HOD, every time I have to go from one castle to another.

That was one of the first rom hacks I ever played! Great memories! And yeah, I might just edit damage done to make Maxim mode a bit more challenging... And I like the idea of 2 castles, but it was a little too much backtracking for my liking. Nice new profile pic btw! Have you seen Grimoire of Souls?

But I'd imagine that's hardcoded in.

This hackrom HOD is very good all characters can level up. About Grimoire of Souls - I wanted to play but the speed is not good here

Huh? All I mentioned is doable, just give it a try. Here is Max VS Max example. Years ago you would need a gameshark for that to happen, now its just a single unit spawn. And you not need to make any events or cutscenes. All cutscene locked bosses can be spawned freely. Events are special objects DS vania can also edit, but then again with Max problem may stay as it is... 聽

I guess it is an official sequel to Harmony of Despair, but I feel like the game won't be near as difficult as we're used to. LOVE the art style though!
