Hi,
I am wanting to completely reverse Amelia and Seth in FE8. When I tried using Nightmare so Amelia appears in the prologue instead of Seth the game freezes why is that?
Also what else do I need to do to completely switch their roles? Do I need to open up each chapter and replace Seth with Amelia and then Amelia with Seth? Which I am already planning on using the text editor to change Seth and Amelia and portrait editor to the same.

Events try and use Seth, but if you change Seth to Amelia, the game is like "OH NOEZ WHERE IS SETH?!!!!" and then it crashes.
Solution: add Amelia instead of some super generic unit OR make Seth's DATA into Amelia, but don't actually use the CUE to change Seth into Amelia.
Here's a silly analogy:
You ordered vanilla ice cream. If the owner of the ice cream shop changes vanilla to be called strawberry, the worker there won't know wtf is vanilla, 'cuz it's oddly called strawbery.
What you want to do is make vanilla look and taste like strawberry, but be called vanilla.
Anyway if that just confused you more and you still can't fix it, either A) wait for someone else to make a more helpful response or wait for me to stop acting silly.

Change everything about Seth into Amelia. So you would change his face sprite, class, stats, everything to match Amelia, but not the CUE data.

Btw, the CUE = Chapter Unit Editor. It's where you edit what character of what class with what items of what level and allegiance is on what square of a map with what AI.

CUE I know what it is, I use it a lot, just didn't know what CUE meant. So don't even touch CUE. So here is what I am going to do:
I am going to use the Character Editor and change everything Seth to Amelia, and Amelia to Seth. Stats everything.
Then I am going to use FE Adv to change all of Seth's Mugs to Amelia's and all of Amelia's to Seth's. Then I'll replace Amelia with Bob in text editor, then replace Seth with Amelia, then replace Bob with Seth.
Will that work or is there more? I am assuming there is a little bit more right?
After I get Amelia as my Seth here is what I want to do next. This is where I want to learn expansion of the classes which if I don't understand what I am reading, I'll ask about later. Well thanks the help so far. I am really digging this and eventually I'll stop asking and start producing.

No, That's all I think. At least, I can't think of anything else that would need to be done.

Updates on this, other than the pronoun mix up I have successfully replaced the roles of Seth and Amelia, Franz still calls Amelia sir and Seth maybe refered to as a girl now and then, which is totally not something you want to refer him as. Now I can start on my next phase and that is going to involve expanding the class table which I've already posted questions about. I been reading up on it and it makes sense, kinda.

You should just text edit that out. It's not that difficult.

A little tedious, but easy, really. Unless there's a more efficient way than perusing the dialogue text in FEditor, editing as necessary.

You can dump the whole script and use Notepad++ to go through it.
Well that's what I do. But some people like going through each block in FEditor.

I was coming back to mention that right now. it takes some of the headache out. I've had to edit one block three times now because I didn't apply the changes before moving on.>_<
