Is there a way to make the game think the hero's parent was female instead of male? It would be awesome to hear 'Hero Queen' and 'Mother' . Smile

I don't know why you need this... but
open globals.gdb with HEX editor
goto 001E4DF8 and change 2 to 1
02 00 00 00 > 01 00 00 00

or use GDBEditor
check 'Extrapolate parent\child' option
use #08A1AB45 hash
and goto GenderComponent > Gender
change 2 to 1

also, female hash: #65D9C904

Thanks for the info. Umm, my question was poorly worded. (after applying the changes, it's now impossible to play as a male

So, what I'm looking for is this:

The game always defaults the Hero of Brighwall's parent to male. For instance, when you first spar with Walter, he says something like, "Do you remember when I used to tell you stories about your father, the Hero King?"

What I'd like to do is have the game default the Hero of Brightwall's parent to female. So I hear, "...stories about your mother, the Hero Queen."


Sorry for the confusion.

...you are asking the impossible
you can't change something like that
there is simply no voice sounds for "Hero Queen mother" (I think)
what the point anyway? just to hear? :)

yeah.. find someone
language\speech\text\butler\gui\treasure\guild\seal\trophy\received\01\father
language\speech\text\butler\gui\treasure\guild\seal\trophy\received\01\mother

so, it's based on Fable 2 save?
then it is POSSIBLE but I don't know if you need to change something is savegame or maybe some thing in globals.gdb (but it's hard to find that, too many "parent")
or of course we can use brute-force and find all the sounds, if someone find them all (that actually impossible for normal human), I can make mods (father\mother) :)

I guess I'm the abnormal human. Smile I've been digging around in the files and found all the sounds, I think. I also found a field, 'HerosParent'. The quests that mention the gender of the Hero's parent appear to be checking for the value of this field. (based on Chunky spy's decompiled script).

Fable 3 on the xbox also carried over the Fable 2 hero's morality. The flags in the mausoleum reflect that morality.

For myself, I just renamed the speech, lipsync and cutscenes to hear 'Mother' and 'Hero Queen'. Yes, I'm crazy Smile

I doubt the subtitles say 'Mother' etc, but since I never bother with that, it doesn't matter to me. It also misses the written objective of the quests, things like 'Find your Father's Music Box for Sabine' instead of 'Mother's Music box'.

I can get a list together of the sounds if you want it.

yea, I forget to check scripts
this is easy
Gameflow.HerosParent = ScriptFunction.GetFable2HeroEndString()

so, try this
Gameflow.HerosParent = 1
Gameflow.HerosParent = 2

1 should be father and 2 is mother?
I don't check it, please report

first you can check original value with msgbox: Gameflow.HerosParent

and yes, plz post voices file list :)

Ok, 1 is father and 2 is mother. The code works perfectly for the first line, when sparring with Walter. But when the second line is supposed to run, the game freezes. Music still plays, and Walter moves his head around. -- Walter is supposed to deliver the second line when you leave the castle.

I placed the code in 'myscript 02' and 'myscript 01' -- I'm using the script injector method. If there's some other code, I'm happy to test it.

Also, I'll get the voices file list together and post in a couple of days. Smile

Ugg, yea that was stupid of me. Anyway, Gameflow.HerosParent = '_Mother' returns _Mother in the message box.

So far it only fails when you pick up the Guild Seal, when you fight bats on your way out, and the first two lines in the sanctuary. All of these lines are spoken by either Jasper or Walter and are in quest QC015 Escape. The strange thing is Teresa has a line which I think is in this quest and it works fine.

By fails I mean it plays Father instead of Mother. Once you're through this part of the game, it works fine, so far. But I've only tested past meeting Sabine.

Sorry to bump such an old topic and as my first post here, but it seemed better than making a new one.. I've been wracking my brain trying to get this to work and have no idea if I've even done it correctly but I've checked the tutorial and as far as I know I have.

This is all I've added to scriptactivation.lua I can't help feeling that it looks wrong though.
ScriptActivation[ScriptCode.QU000].AbleToRun = function ()

--Code can be added here.
--[[ e.g. Inventory.AddItemOfType(GetLocalHero(), 'YourItemFromFromTheItemList')]]
Gameflow.HerosParent = ScriptFunction.GetFable2HeroEndString()
Gameflow.HerosParent = '_Mother'
Gameflow.Fable2HeroEndGender = '_Mother'

return nil
end

Any help at all would be appreciated!

I don't think
Gameflow.HerosParent = ScriptFunction.GetFable2HeroEndString()
is needed. I'm not sure what that would do, or if your script changes are being loaded.
I know when I used ZackTiro's Script Modding Setup Tutorial it was annoying to get working.


I'm using a slightly altered version of Improved script injection method I changed to work better for me. It adds the use of scriptactivation.lua, but for me it's easier to use. It's probably not needed, but whatever.

After switching back so it sould work with ZackTiro's Script Modding Setup Tutorial...I have.
ScriptActivation[ScriptCode.QU000].AbleToRun = function ()

Gameflow.HerosParent = '_Mother'
Gameflow.Fable2HeroEndGender = '_Mother'

return nil
end
