This is a patch for Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon that allows you to play through the prologue of Shadow Dragon on higher difficulties.
Installation
The Gaiden Requirements Removal Patch, originally made by Robert of Normandy (aka RobertTheSable), has been incorporated into this patch (use either one only):
- FE11HardPrologueWithGaiden.xelda - If you want to use the Gaiden Requirements Removal with this patch.
- FE11HardModePrologue.xdelta - Regular game with no changes other than being able to play through the prologue on higher difficulties.
This was made using the US version of FE11, so you should use an unmodified ROM (.nds file) from that region.

This patch is in xdelta format, to apply the patch to your ROM:
- Windows - Use DeltaPatcher or xdelta UI.
- Mac - Use MultiPatch.
- Linux - Use xdelta, or run DeltaPatcher in wine.
Please note you should apply only one patch to your ROM, not both.
User guide
Enemies will scale up to your difficulty of choice for the prologue's duration. This also allows you to choose the sacrifice and (potentially) obtain Norne on higher difficulties.
Changes have been made to Prologue 1 and 2 to help accommodate higher difficulties, such as placing a vulnerary in Marth's inventory, having certain enemies drop vulneraries, and changing the class and equipment of certain enemy units.
Script edits have also been made to make the intro cinematic always load the normal difficulty version - the one that ends with, "Thus Marth applied himself to the ways of the pen and sword, until one day..." instead of summarizing the prologue - even when you pick hard modes.
Text editing has also been used to make the help text say that you get the prologue on all difficulties, rather than hard modes still saying that no prologue is included.
Changelog
Version 1.2
- Fixes a big wherein Ymir's stats would erroneously be scaled up with difficulty. Now, he will always have his correct starting stats.
Version 1.1
- Fixes the long-standing Ymir movement bug associated with the Gaiden Requirements Removal Patch. As part of the fix, Ymir will now actively move during Chapter 20x, and his dialogue has been slightly edited to reflect this.
Version 1.0
- Initial release.
