And how does turning a video game into something it's not make that happen?
Have you PLAYED fire emblem? I realize you probably don't care about the pairing up of people and how that affects the story, it sounds like you only play it for the strategy. Which is fine. But please understand some people play it for the ability to pair people up and see how that affects the story. Having the options in the game that are in the real world makes it that more engaging and fun.

If you are having trouble with the "husband" and "wife" thing, may I offer a suggestion? Change the instances to the more gender-neutral "spouse" or "partner" instead.

That will allow for couplings of any sort without letting on that the original coding was stuck back in the days when people thought jamming a rod into the brain cured mental illness.

That's a good idea, and I was already thinking of doing something similar (as well as changing "Mother" and "Father" to "Parent"). But like I said, if I do get around to altering text, it's not going to be for at least a few weeks. If someone else wants to try it themselves, they should certainly feel free to.

So every game that allows marriage has to be gay?I mean on wii, there was Sims 3, on 3ds now, there's tomodochi life, now people are altering games to have homosexual content that originally didn't. Gay influence has already found its way into television, movies, music, and now this? Where does it end? When will it be enough?

lmao this is a treasure of a post

They're coming for you! Ooga booga!

Why do you care? This is just a fan hack, it's existence should have no impact on your life, and the fact that you're letting it feels a bit odd.

Ya, ya, I get that games that allow character customization are supposed to be personal and make you feel like you're part of the game, but this is going to extreme measures to twist the developers' original creation into something they didn't intend, and all so that certain people can derive some weird satisfaction of having the game imply that Chrom wants to stick his phallus into Gaius's anal orifice (which is the most disgusting orifice of the human body, male or female). There are better ways of having your opinions heard. If you don't like a certain aspect of a game, you can choose to boycott it, or write the developers. In fact, you're getting what you want with Fire Emblem Fates. So why is there a need to go and tamper with this one? I suppose you'd prefer if Mario and Zelda, or Dirk from Dragon's Lair were trying to save a prince instead of a princess, right? Are we going to see hacks of those games in the same fashion? Jeez, why don't hackers spend time trying to do more useful things, like improving the game engine or controls of games that perform poorly?



And now you've crossed the line from trying to support your opinion, to antagonizing me for expressing mine.

And no, I don't have a problem with people doing with their own personal life what they feel comfortable with, as long as it doesn't make other people feel uncomfortable. It's when people go and openly brag or make known that they're a homosexual, shoving it down other peoples throats, as if they really care, that I get annoyed. A person's sexual preference should remain that. Personal. It also should not be a defining trait of who that person is. I don't hear straight people exclaiming how straight they are and begging for attention because of that fact. It just amazes me the lengths some people will go for the implication of same sex intercourse in a video game. Just...Wow.
I just quoted a random message to join the @Drak0rex quoting party!

wow people getting upset over an optional ROMhack. also it's not even exclusively the samesex stuff added in it's also the pairings that were left out by Nintendo. if you want to complain about something go complain about the other incarnation of Tharja being able to marry FeMui. Oh wait that's optional and not actually forced too. What you're complaining about is seeing it as an option not whether it's forced which it isn't. I don't care what anyone's preferences are in here but please don't claim something clearly false about an optional feature. There is no shoving ideas down people's throat. No slippery slope. And no forced homosexual options. If you're claiming any of these things you're delusional and putting a false claim into something optional that doesn't deserve this ignorant kind of backlash.

Question. I built the new romFS file and replaced the file in the person folder, but whenever I run the game it doesn't load past the intro movie.

You're probably using an older version of HANS, redownload the homebrew starter kit for the newest version of HANS.
I updated my homebrew, including HANS, and the error no longer persists, however it does crash as soon as I get to the character creation screen.

Eh, I can careless either way. I don't give a damn if gay marriage is in a game, or not in a game. Matter fact, I don't even give a shit about straight marriage being in a game, or not. In Skyrim I didn't even know you could get married until after I beat the main story line. I still didn't bother getting married.

Wait, if I don't care, why am I even posting in this thread? I guess, I must be bored or something.

That's strange, it works for me, and I double checked that I uploaded the right file. If you're still having issues, maybe you could lay out in more detail the steps you're taking, to see where the problem is?
