You need to complete certain chapters for the paralogues to unlock. For Nichol's chapter, you need to complete Paralogue 5, and for Haitaka's you need to complete Conquest chapter 11.

Do i need to capture them? Like, for example, if i defeat them, will i not get access to the paralogues>

I think you just need to beat the chapter.

Alright, i just finished playing the paralogues. They are pretty good. They could be in the game as actual chapters. I liked the fact that nichol and haitaka had good starting stats, and over all, this was amazing

I'd like to ask your permission before messing around with it...

Would you be opposed to me running it on my JP copy and translate the dialogue to JP just for fun?

Not at all - if you're feeling up to it, go ahead and translate it.

Do you think you'd consider making an Omozu paralogue? Only problem I see is that, well, he has like no character at all. XD But at the same time, it gives you a LOT of freedom regarding how to write his dialogue.

To be honest, I'm having trouble even coming up with a concept for that map. I'll consider making one at some point, but I have no plans for Omozu at the moment.

Alright then, just asking questions cuz no one has really posted here since the 2nd.

maybe it's asking too much, but would it be possible to recruit/support Marth, Chrom, Lucina, or Ike in this way? or other Characters not present in the game, like Katarina(Eine), or Ishtar? maybe Arvis or Julius? I don't think it would be terribly hard to make a 3d model or whatever for Katarina, she would basically be a recolor of Hinoka...

 

[scorcher9009]

I don't think we've figured out 3D models or sound files yet.

The same-sex expansion actually adds in supports for the amiibo characters, including Marth and Lucina. I'd rather not handle writing for them personally.

Unfortunately, creating new 3D models for characters isn't practical at the moment. You could potentially create something by splicing together existing models, but that only goes so far.

To be honest, if you're just looking to get the characters themselves in Fates, I'd talk with one of the custom DLC developers, as they have a lot more experience with that sort of thing.

yeah I guess so. would still be really badass though, fight a paralogue battle against a portion of Marth's Army, or Sigurd's Army, win, and recruit them all.

So, any recent progress so far? It's been a while since someone's posted on this thread.

I've been working on adding new sounds to the base game lately, so I haven't spent much time on the paralogues. I've got the plans for the next update laid out, but I haven't actually implemented anything yet.

 

[arc1017]

does anyone have a recording of the nichol paralogue? I would love to see how it plays out but I know nothing about installing fates on my laptop or homebrews or whatever is involed with running and making these custom chapters. I just play fire emblem games on my way to work

Hey @thane98, since you seem to understand this pretty well, how possible do you think it is to add a new defense chapter? I've thought about a chapter in which you choose to fight with the Kitsune or the Wolfskin army and try to defend against the other on your home turf.

Admitidly, this would probably be better as a custom DLC map rather than a paralogue (you know, because lol outrealms..)

Adding in a new defense chapter wouldn't be terribly difficult conceptually, though actually implementing it could be a little complicated. As far as I know, chapter win conditions are defined inside a map's script files, so you'd have to do some script editing if you wanted a defend chapter. I'd take a look at the script for Conquest chapter 10 to see how it's set up in the original game.

You'd also want to adjust the AI for the enemies so that you're actually defending against something. AI values can be changed in the dispo file by changing AI labels, though I don't know how you'd go about defining which point the enemies move towards. Once again, I suggest looking at Conquest chapter 10's dispo file to see how it sets up the enemy AI.

It's definitely possible, you'll just need to go through some additional steps in comparison to creating rout maps.
