--Initial Release--

=======What's Done=======

- All SP battle troops are Kengeki style, they also have upgrades like Warband Kengeki, does not include mercenaries
- Multiplayer is just like Warband Kengeki, the captain co-op has also been ported for Kengeki
- The SP Map is similarly shaped like Japan
- There are exploding arrows in SP
- You can have pink, red, green, blue hair depending on your face skin
- SP Troop icons have been replaced with Japanese icons
- Building icons have been replaced with Japanese icons
- Quite a bit more new music when visiting towns, fighting or playing MP
- All Warband Kengeki SP items are in WFAS SP

=======What's Not Done=======

- Remaking all villagers with correct armor and weapons
- The original Fire and Sword dialogue has not been changed
- Most buildings are still from WFAS
- Most NPCs are still dressed like WFAS NPC's
- Kingdom banners (I tried and came close )
- Could not port over the new MP maps from Warband Kengeki (Game and mental limitation :/ )

**** Why are you releasing this so unfinished?

- Busy with real life, college homework can be quite daunting. I don't have the spare
time anymore to work on this, and I wanted to see a download link on the forum topic instead of it
being forever "COMING SOON".

**** Will single player ever be finished?

I hope so, if anyone is ever determined enough to want to have single player done,
shoot me an email and I'll let you work on the source directly.

Questions, comments, and suggestions are welcome!

I am in no need of programmers, I need miscellaneous things done on it, new face codes, some new scenes, game play testing, single player testing and a writer.

All of which can be done by anyone that plays the game.

If your interested in helping out add my skype name or email me with the icon to the left with some sort of instant messaging name...

Could you tell me how you got different the hair colors?

 

[Toasticuss]

Could you tell me how you got different the hair colors?

In the module_skins, at the end of every face texture theres hex code, the hex code dictates the range of hair colors for that face, so you can get the hex color code for pink and paste it after the 0xFF replacing the existing one at the end and the range of the color will go to pink.

Think of the 4 hex colors after the faces

|Light color | still a light color | darker color | dark color|

So replace one of the hex codes at the front of or end with a large color change and you'll get that.

This looks pretty good.

[Ageofchaos]

Sweet! Thanks for the release and all your hard work, downloading this mod right now. WFAS really needs more modules like this.

 

[DIABOLGROTESQUE]

The mod seems really handsome. Congrats and thanks for your hard work.

just like that ;D

And that Morrigan looks fantastic  . It would be great to have a mod featuring all Darkstalkers chars as lords but being someone without any coding or modding knowledge at all, I realize that it is easier said than done for me.

 

[Bad Idea]

Just to clear this up, she's not in the mod.

This mod is for With Fire and Sword, install it to that module folder, and once it's done extracting, delete the language folder and start up the mod.

 

[TMAN78]

This mod is looking good, keep up the hard work!
