8 Dragons question

Thanks for the response ExiaTreason, but the reason the Prometheus does not appear on the Veldt is because it uses Monster ID #261. Any Monster with an ID above 255 will not appear on the Veldt, nor will any formation above 511 (the "do not appear on Veldt" box should work if these other qualifications are met). This is why it seems much easier to swap the graphics and stats of the Prometheus and White Dragon (and the names), and simply point the formations to the new ID numbers. This should make the Prometheus appear on the Veldt while stopping the White Dragon from appearing, but I am still unsure if the dead dragon will count toward the 8 dragons.

Yeah after rereading what Madsiur said there about there being at least 1 monster below 256 counting as valid. Because I was originally skeptical about Proto armor showing up on the Veldt being number 357.

Is the removal of the White Dragon from Veldt one of the ultimate goals here? I was under the impression that just adding Prometheus was what you wanted, in which case I feel my Intangir suggestion was still sound. Otherwise, it seems you have your answer either way!

P.S. Always love to learn new things about hacking this. Thanks for the information guys
