Can't get Loire to expand for the first time

Post Posted: Post subject: Can't get Loire to expand for the first time

So I've voted on Jean, talked to every citizen of Loire whenever they had new dialogue and I'm about to board the ship to the new continent after kicking Bloody Mary's sorry behind.

...

But Loire still hasn't expanded.

I've tried looking up this issue in numerous FAQS, but they all mention that simply voting on Jean and then exiting in and out of some world map locations does the trick. So what could I have possibly done wrong?

I've even restarted from an in-game save file from right before the start of the groom hunt, voted on Jean but once again, nothing's happening.

For the love of God...helo me.

Thanks! :lol:

Loire deffinately should have grown if you voted for jean and the king is dead as you have said has happened. Are you using cart or rom?

Possibly wait and go to freedom then come back if it hasnt happened by then i guess you need to start again

all you need to do is vote for jean. i think you have to do that before you finish norfest, but i'm not sure.
that is really odd.. you playing on a rom? ive had some issues with roms in the trilogy, but never that issue.

Finishing Norfest is required to make the election appear.

But you could be on to something about the ROM part. If so, what aspect of using a ROM could cause something like this? The fact that you can have save states?

UPDATE: I resumed from the in-game save file I had from right before the vote, and played for a while without using the emulator save states. It didn't really surprise me that Loire still didn't expand. I guess I'll just have to start over, using another ROM file.

You could try that. Or maybe you just haven't rested in an inn in another town yet (sounds stupid, but that happened to me once)

i dont think save states are an issue. ive played the game both on cartridge and rom, and never had that issue. it might be a small part of the rom being corrupted (not enough to be unplayable), or maybe its the emulator (some roms, with lufia 2 coming to mind, glitch up at some points on some emulators)

Anyway, I guess I'll switch ROMs/emulators. Sucks having to restart though...

You forgot:

* Learn to read.

That stuff is for the second expansion, not the first.

Anyway, I'll keep you guys posted as soon as I have some time to restart Terranigma.
