Looks great, I swapped out the menu gradient to your Blue and my border. Your file also helped me realise how I was packing the files wrong.  :-D

Hello! I am engaged in porting translation of Final Fantasy VIII from 2013 Steam version to 2019 Remaster version. I can port texts, but I do not know how to change the width of characters in the font. Editing sysfnt.tdw do not give a result in Remaster. Mcindus or anybody else can you help me?
P.S.
I used google translator. Sorry.

You have to put the mod path first, not the main.zzz path. the SECOND file you put in is the main.zzz

Try using the 1.6.5 release of the zzzDeArchiver!  My directions follow that exactly. Had the same issue with someone else last night.  I will try to troubleshoot the new zzzDeArchive program and see what the issue might be.

The issue is the steps you list in your included instructions for zzzDeArchive are no longer correct. After pushing 3, it first asks for the path to the original zzz file, followed by the mod zzz file. This is reverse of what your instructions for 1.6.5 say. I was having the same problem until I actually took the time to read what was being shown in the command window.

Sorry about that I changed the order of merge to accept multiple mods. New version has a new gui. It might be easier to use.

The idea is the files with data you want to replace should go first and the holds true for all the mods you add as well. If you have mods, that replace some of the same files. The ones that are added later will overwrite the ones earlier.

So by putting main.zzz at the end you are basically coping main.zzz as it'll override all the mods. :P

You have to put the mod path first, not the main.zzz path. the SECOND file you put in is the main.zzz

google translate of error: given path format is not supported
So looking at your path you put the path to a zzz file and put a / then the other one. That's why it didn't work.

You had to put the path to main.zzz push enter, then the path to the mod and push enter.

Oh I see you got it working. Well if anyone was wondering what the error was. :P

I think I got it so it won't crash out on that error anymore. In the next release (>=0.1.7.5) if this happens again it'll show/log the error and in the console just ask again for input.

thanks :D , i give a look at the folders, and actually there are the icons from the ps4 version, so at this point a mod for the buttons icons would only require to switch the respective files with the icons so the game will  use the ones from the ps4 version :D

the colour options are in the seed reborn 4.1 mod that mcindus did for the original 2013 steam release,the border that darziak did is compatible with both the seed reborn 4.1 , and the new SeeD remastered version. but as i don't use the remastered game i don't know if the colour options were included in that.

Is there a way to not use the gunblade cursor? I personally feel like that's more distracting than the normal hand. I like the rest of the mod. That cursor unnerves me for some reason. :D

Would be sweet if all the color options had screenshot previews or at least a listing of what all options the mod has.
