    ROM Hack Fire Emblem Conversation Editor (Awakening/Fates)

    "That is not dead which can eternal lie" and all that. I'm very sorry for my absence -- I tend to be... Inconsistent at best when it comes to my ability to devote time to non-essential projects. I should finally be pushing up a number of fixes at some point in the next few days -- @TheReal2B1T...

    ROM Hack Fire Emblem Conversation Editor (Awakening/Fates)

    Okay, thank you! I'll see about borrowing a windows 10 laptop from a friend to run some tests on that, then. Wouldn't surprise me at all if it ends up being something related to windows and its pathing... That was a headache from the start. Why can't every OS be as sensible as Linux?

    I've been lazy about updating the GitLab, but 1.3 is getting close! On that note, @ValiantChan, I still haven't managed to reproduce that $G issue. Could you possibly send me one of the files it's happened in? What do the logs say? Can you send them to me? I can't do much if I don't know what...

    ROM Hack Fire Emblem Conversation Editor (Awakening/Fates)

    Yeah, I'm afraid adding new characters isn't as easy as I'd like to to be right now. That's definitely going to change, though! How interesting. It looks like it copied the previous one twice, once where it should be and once where it shouldn't. I'll look into that, now that I have a better...

    I'm glad you like it! For your questions: 1) I'm not actually sure what the control code to stop BGM playback is, though that's one of the things I've got on the list to investigate. Unfortunately, that means that at the moment the only easy thing to do with BGM is start a new one. I'm sorry...

    Okay, thank you -- I've been trying, and I just haven't managed to reproduce it yet myself.

    ROM Hack Fire Emblem Conversation Editor (Awakening/Fates)

    Even a single letter vanishing would be concerning to me! Hmm. I can't say with 100% certainty that the copy/pasting has nothing to do with it -- I've barely touched Windows in years and years, let alone Word, but I certainly remember some of the problems it used to cause. That said, I don't...

    ROM Hack Fire Emblem Conversation Editor (Awakening/Fates)

    No, there shouldn't be anything like that... Hm. I created one myself just now and tried it out -- no such problems occurred for me... Would you mind sending me the current state of your .bin.lz file? The only thing I can think of by looking at the text file you provided earlier is that it looks...

    For the font stuff: yeah, still the same. It's something I can put on the list to look into, and definitely need to fix up at some point, but if anyone who knows how the files for the Awakening font were procured would be willing to step up and help grab the Fates one, that'd definitely speed...

    ROM Hack Fire Emblem Conversation Editor (Awakening/Fates)

    Right, I've got that -- but last time I checked, FEAT didn't give me anything usable from it, and I'm not familiar with the format for the font. Hang on, let me try again.

    ROM Hack Fire Emblem Conversation Editor (Awakening/Fates)

    That makes sense. Do we have the Fates font data anywhere? I can easily sub it in.

    ROM Hack Fire Emblem Conversation Editor (Awakening/Fates)

    Real-time previewing is very possible, but not in the same ways as that program does it. What that does relies on the fact that it knows exactly where you are in the conversation at any given time and just renders that -- it doesn't even let you edit any other part. That's fundamentally opposed...

    As glad as I am that it's stopped for you, that actually worries me more than if it were still happening! Phantom bugs are nasty to fix.

    ROM Hack Fire Emblem Conversation Editor (Awakening/Fates)

    Yeah, I'm afraid that worked just fine for me -- I even had cycled the messages back and forth to see if it would happen, but... They stayed as they should be. I'm afraid I'm really not sure what's going on for you -- there might be some kind of bizarre bug with very low odds of occurring that...

    ROM Hack Fire Emblem Conversation Editor (Awakening/Fates)

    Now that's a bizarre one. I'd seen some form of most of these and ironed them out (only for them to apparently slip back in later), but that one? Not so much. In fact, I just loaded a text file using $G and didn't have that happen at all... When is it occurring? Could you send me the file in...

    ROM Hack Fire Emblem Conversation Editor (Awakening/Fates)

    Oh awesome, thanks! That'll save me some time. And yeah, making things display correctly will be easy -- what I actually meant was setting it up so that the editor could load files that include those and not have them vanish off into the ether when saved, since it won't be correctly recognizing...

    ROM Hack Fire Emblem Conversation Editor (Awakening/Fates)

    Oh, now that is interesting... And yeah, the $p thing that was visible in the actual text is what I was referring to, not the fact that the portrait wasn't highlighted! I meant the syntax highlighting, haha. Are those MPID name definitions in the file alongside everything? I'm going to need to...

    ROM Hack Fire Emblem Conversation Editor (Awakening/Fates)

    Awesome! Looks like there's some stuff going on with the text codes present in that file that's messing with script conversion and thus highlighting, though... Would you mind sending it over to me so I could poke at it?

    Ah, really? Must have messed something up with spaces. I'll dig in and take a look, thanks! Edit: Yep, that's exactly what happened. I just pushed a fix and I'll be putting up an updated release in the next few minutes. Edit edit: It's up.

    Yeah, I stuck with that one! I'm considering migrating it all to XML, but this was easy to do as a first draft kind of thing. Mining the values out and storing them wouldn't be hard either, of course...
