Please fix bug.

Brigandine GE has a crucial bug.

To class change Knight or Swordman or Berserker via Barbarian.
Barbarian's skill(CounterDMG+10%) changes Fighter's skill(Hit+5%).

I want to fix this bug.But I can't find code.

Never try this software, but if it can applied with the patch earlier, i think will try to look for it.

yo, it's pretty awesome that this translation project have been completely done. thanks a lot for the hard work dude, we appreciate it. ^_^

i've played Brigandine Legend of Forsena countless times already and thought that late in the game (when you have Lv30 knights and top tier monsters) the battles aren't challenging anymore. in Legend of Forsena you can just send one knight along with two salamanders, a lucifer, a loki and a lilith to battle and be able to win almost all the time but here in Grand Edition (along with the Grand Battle patch), it's pretty tough doing that since you will be needing some support units (particularly healers) later on in the game.

i like the fact that the AI is getting beefed-up as time passes with this Grand Battle patch, this will force players to beat the game as soon as possible. honestly, this Grand Battle patch opposes my play-style since i always use only three knights (changing monsters every now and then) in the first couple years while the other knights going off to some quests non-stop. i don't defend castles early in the game, i always hit an enemy castle every month which makes me circle the continent but due to the "low mana = low monster's health" issue, i guess i'll be changing my play style.

i'm pretty impressed with the voice acting, i believe that the voice acting was done quite nicely. is it just me or Ulster kinda sounds like Himura Kenshin in Samurai X (English dubbed)? xD

registered just to say thanks, the new mod looks great. been playing around with some codes myself using cheat engine and PEC for the emulator. was able to fully modify any hero, monster and castle stats. things like requiting any knight and summoning any monster.

would like to know how the change each classes state growth or abilities and magic.

[samisc]

i figured out what alters the rune power growth, the max you can get per level is 9 rune power and min is zero of course. its 1 byte located along with the rune area of the knight.

this is the full code for each knight, found one for the LOF but this is a little alters in GE

00 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 0a 0b 0c 0d 0e 0f
10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 1a 1b 1c 1d 1e 1f
20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28

00 = Class
01 = level
02 + 03 = xp (2 bytes)
04 + 05 = hp (2 bytes)
06 + 07 = mp (2 bytes)
08 = STR
09 = INT
0A = AGI

0B =rune power growth + Rune Area ( digits on the left side represent rune power growth, 1 being max growth which is 7-9 per level,  2 give 6-8 per level and so on), digit on the right  is the rune area, F = 15 max and 0 = 0

0C + 0D = Rune Power
0E -> 13 = Creatures under Command << only those that you currently have, for example is you dont own a red dragon you cant place one, but if you do own one, it will place that exact same red dragon, name stats and all, gets bugy too too, this isnt use to obtain creature, its to register where you placed the ones you already own. hope that explains it

14 = Fighter Class << 3F would be master level on tier 3 class
15 = Mage Class
16 = Priest Class/ monk
17 = Ranger/ninja  << not sure how to unlock ninja class in the codes for the country yet
 
18 = weapon FF = Nothing
19 =item FF=Nothing
1A = Age
1B = rune or star sign / Month
1C = Team: 0=New Almekia; 1=Norgard; 2=Leonia; 3=Caerleon; 4= Iscalio; 5=Esgares FF=no one
1D = Current castle knight is in
1E = Portrait
1F = Current command. 0=wait; 1=move; 2=attack; 3=wounded; 4=quest;
20 = Town you are going to be in next,attacking, moving or waiting
21 = days till quest is finished
22 = 0=not in game; 1=in game; 4=in quest 81 = leader??
23 = Sex
24 = Pointer ??
25 = Pointer ??
26 = Pointer ??range between 56 to 59
27 = always 1 ??
80 = End or start of knight stats

to get a knight to join you you can alter 1C = your country, 1F=04 send unit to quest , 21 = 01 1 day to finish quest, 22= 04 make unit ingame and on quest

get aldis gameshark code, change FF value to the country you want her to go to
800982D0 00FF
800982D3 0004
800982D5 0001
300982D6 0004

i've been playing Brigandine GE with this translation in a PS1 emulator and encountered some typos (not quite sure what term to use but since it is related to texts, i used the word typo).

Brigandine Grand Edition Battle Typo 1 (Vaynard & Coel Battle)
i believe the word "ambitious" is the proper fit in the sentence in the image below rather than "ambitions".

Brigandine Grand Edition Quest Typo 1 (Dillard Quest)
Doesn't have a space between "Dillard" and "readies".

Brigandine Grand Edition Quest Typo 2 (Palomides Quest)
Doesn't have a space between "Palomides" and "decides".

Brigandine Grand Edition Quest Typo 3 (Zerafin Quest)
I guess the sentence in the image below should have the word "became/was" in-between the words "I" and "tired".

Brigandine Grand Edition Quest Typo 4 (Hyude Quest)
Since Limlit is referring to Hyude, shouldn't be the word "him" be suitable rather than "it" in that particular sentence?

i am not an expert when it comes to english grammar (english isn't my first language) but i think those that i've mentioned above need to be corrected. if ever i am mistaken, kindly inform me. thanks for hearing me out.

and lastly, sorry about the long post.

As the guy in charge of all the voice acting for this translation, that makes me very happy to hear.  There have been a lot of posts here regarding the quality of the translation (it really is awesome) but not too much about the voices.  Ulster was voiced by the very talented Ray Jernigan.  He was a pleasure to work with, and he also voiced Palomides :-)
