Early Class Change

Early Class Change

v1. 8 Update:

- Added Worldmap Bad Astoria to Good Astoria pak file:

- Replaces destroyed Astoria world map location with pre-destruction Astoria, useful if you need to acquire the Class 4 items mid-game.

v1. 7 Update:

- Added Early Class Change pak file:

- Allows you to class change to Class 2 or Class 3 at any level, in addition to early Class 4 change.

v1. 6 Update:

- Fixed a bug with early_class_change_tunnel_1_P that was setting a flag leftover from the old versions.

If you've used the tunnel and are stuck in Valsena waiting for the cannon, extract the mod's zip file manually,

and drag and drop your save file on Old Version\early_class_4_change_DISABLE_patch.exe to repair your save.

Save files are usually located in

- "C:\Users\\Documents\My Games\Trials of Mana\Steam\1638\Saved\SaveGames".

- ADAT.sav - autosave.

- SDAT00-11.sav - save slots 1-12

Thanks to SuedStar for bringing it to my attention.

v1. 5 Update:

- Changed the Astoria shop class 4 items requirement from finding 30 li'l cactus, to just the first mandatory cactus.

So it's still limited to new game plus, you just don't have to bother with the cactus requirement.

You can also use the optional Change World Map Bad Astoria to Good Astoria pak file to reach it with Flammie.

v1. 4 Update:

- Updated files for v1. 1. 1 released on Steam 2020/11/04.

v1. 3 Update:

- Completely new method for enabling early class 4 changes.

- Requires version v1. 1. 0.

- The check method itself has been bypassed, so the flag state no longer matters. No eventflags are set,

and no triggers are needed. It's as simple and clean as it gets. The mod must be kept on for it to work,

where with the previous mod you could technically remove it (with side effects) and still class 4 change.

- If you wish to change from the old to the new version see the new instructions.

- (New version only) Fairy is no longer required for class changes. That is if you can get to a mana stone,

or the goddess statue before you get her. Also you can class change during the rescue Faerie part of the story.

v1. 2 Update:

- Fixed all NPCs and references to the eventflag that affects class 4 changes. You will have to keep the mod active

for these corrections (for example, the king of Valsena would appear ready to give you the class 4 challenge

waaay before he should, you couldn't interact with him, but still, cosmetic or not, it and all others should be fixed).

- There was an issue with Reisz's post-game story not showing up, this has been fixed. If you got stuck at that point,

just sleep at Jadd's inn with the new version, and the star will show up on Laurent.

- If the mod is active when you start the post-game, the class 4 flag is reset, so the events progress naturally

without missing any cutscenes, just head to Valsena's library and view the cutscene, and it's enabled again.

- If you have Reisz in your party, and started the post-game without the mod, but earlier played with it,

the gate in Laurent won't be open, so put the mod back, sleep at Jadd's inn, and it'll be open.

I've done a complete playthrough with Duran/Angela/Reisz on a regular new game, including the post-game, and

there were no issues.
