[FF7PC-98/Steam] Multiple mods and Modding Framework-The Reunion [R06f]

[Kaldarasha]

I have a few more fixes. The first scene with the disappeared MP and the jump and landing sound in gold saucer gate. I have also fixed disappeared ambient sound, but I guess it is better to use ficedula's ultrasound for this in future.

I am reporting this just in case as an addition to a previous bug report of mine, regarding the room with the icicles in Gaea's cliff. I did report back then that only the first icicle fight would trigget the jump down prompt to appear whereas, the successive ones would have cloud automatically jump off without prompt appearing. I did fix this by changing the following line in script3 within the group "Cloud". The line reads If Var[5][12] == 3 (else go to label 1) I replaced the 3 with 2 and that worked as Cloud would not jump off automatically when reaching the trigger point, allowing you to get the last elixir.

However this brought forward another issue. In the PSX version, if you decline all four times to jump off when asked, you can get the prompt to appear again by simply walking up to the spot where the first icicle fight triggered. That is not happening in the pc version and, the only way to get the prompt to appear again is to leave and re-enter the screen and then, walking up to the spot where the first icicle was.

Sorry, I know this will have been addressed somewhere in this thread, but is R02 is going to be compatible with the Steam version of FF7?

[Covarr]

It is, sort of. Not all the mods in R02 work with Steam version; IIRC, Menu Overhaul still requires the 1998 version. However, when Reunion R02 is released, Beacause will absolutely be compatible with Steam. I nagged (and a little bit helped) DLPB to make sure this happened, though I would've figured out how to do it myself if he didn't.

[DLPB_]

The Reunion is a collection of 7 mods for Final Fantasy VII (1998 English 1.02 and soon Steam version). 

First post.

[sonickenshin]

This may be a little early to ask, but I remember old posts saying they were able to install Bootleg to the first version of Reunion. Will it be possible to install on top of Bootleg with the new one?

[Sora123masta]

I believe so,  I have done so with Bootleg and Reunion before, many tries because i love experimenting with features that interest me. I am positive it will be an absolute YES. YES. YES. -Daniel Bryan pose. -   xD

[saftle]

Will there be an iro version of the R02 release? Now that I have fully switched from Bootleg to 7th Heaven, I don't want to go back to installers

If not, then is R02 compatible with a modded FF7 using 7th Heaven?

[knightsoftheround]

I can't even play the original game now.

Are you kidding, I stopped being able to after R01. XD Super excited it's so close now though! Woo!

[StickySock]

In anticipation for the release of this re-translation I thought of a very important question that has yet to be addressed:

Does Tifa still bang Cloud under the highwind if your affection with her is high enough?

For those of you whom are not quite sure what I am talking about -  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=afuKSfF1rHg

Please do not delay in responding to my inquiry for this is a matter of utmost importance and urgency.

[DLPB_]

Nah...  I don't think so.  The implication is that they just hugged the night and had a conversation together. That's what's embarrassing, not anything else.  The original game kinda implies something else more than the Japanese text does.

Is that report referring to the escape of Ex-Soldier Zack Fair and Former infantryman Cloud Strife on that day they were in Nibelheim's facility? O.o I forgot, haven't been focusing on the story since I got   my new job.

[DLPB_]

No, it refers to Cloud and Zax, having escaped the pods in Niblheim (the testing facility) and making it to Midgar on the back of that old man's truck,  reach Midgar only for Zax to be shot dead and Cloud to be left to die.  The report isn't accurate to what actually happened deliberately.  Cloud is left to die but makes it to District 7 station where he is found by Tifa.  This is prior to the start of the game.  Tifa then tells him about the Avalanche job and we join Cloud in District 1 station.  I am not sure of the actual time frame of this.

A lot of people get confused because the scene where Zax is slashed by Sephiroth makes it look as though he dies.  He doesn't.  He, Cloud and any other survivors (according to the report) are rounded up by Hojo for experiments, after Sephiroth burns down the village.  That's what Cloud and Zax are doing in the green pods (actually they are large testing beakers according to Japanese text).

[Covarr]

B's whereabouts is currently unknown.

Stay classy, original translation.

Hey ! I thought the release was imminent ! Where is it ?!!! :p

I was given a file not long back for Reunion.  It has xbox icons on it.  Unfortunately, it is not scaled correctly to reunion playstation icons and it the D-pad is incomplete.  Whoever made this, please get back to me.  Or if anyone else has an updated icon set.  Or if someone wants to make Xbox icon file for Reunion.

What's wrong with them? Can you post the PSX buttons for comparison?  I could tackle this if the originator can't be found.

[DLPB_]

Install R01 or look at the menu font file found there.  The dimensions of all buttons and positions must be exact (Xbox normal buttons should be same size or smaller) and centred.

Will do.  My buttons died with my HDD but I can make new ones easy.

All I did was replace a few buttons, resize a few things, and fixed some alignment issues.  Here is the file in .png and .psd format if you need to edit it in the future.

Yeah it was me. Didn't invest much time though.

Since we're all just using gifs.  

[DLPB_]

I've left it to the last minute to fix this long standing issue, but here it is.  Luksy is pretty confident that when Bugenhagen and Ifalna talk about planet screams, they are using a term for it.  Reading the dialogue, I have to agree.  It's also apparent that ALL stars and planets in the FF7 universe are alive (even meteorites like Meteor)... or conscious on some level.  When they die or are in pain, they scream. The problem with how this was originally translated is three fold:

1. FF7 uses the Japanese symbol Hoshi for too many things (planet/star/land)
2. Bugenhagen has a laboratory.  He is talking about other planets and stars as well as FF7's
3. Japanese is very funny on plurals

So if I used "Star Scream"  it would imply only stars scream.  And "Planet Scream" would imply only planets scream.

This is not the case.

To get around this issue, I will be using the term "Celestial Scream".  Thus, the correctly (I hope!) translated text is as follows:

Code: [Select]

{CLOUD}
“The planet will die?”
------------------------------
Bugenhagen
“Ho,ho,hoooo.
  It may be tomorrow,
  or a hundred years from now.
  But it has not long to go.”
------------------------------
{CLOUD}
“How do you know this?”
------------------------------
Bugenhagen
“I hear the ‘celestial scream’.”
------------------------------
{CLOUD}
“What?”
------------------------------
Bugenhagen
“A sound made by all that sparkles
  in the heavens. Stars and planets
  are being born right at this very
  moment,while others are dying.”
------------------------------
{CLOUD}
“What was that just now?”
------------------------------
Bugenhagen
“Ho,ho,hoooo.
  A scream from OUR planet.”{NEW}
“‘I am in pain. I am suffering.’
  Is that not what it sounded like?”
Compare to original

Code: [Select]

{CLOUD}
“…When the Planet dies?”
------------------------------
Bugenhagen
“Ho Ho Hoooo.
It may be tomorrow, or 100 years from now…
But it's not long off.”
------------------------------
{CLOUD}
“How do you know this?”
------------------------------
Bugenhagen
“I hear the cries of the Planet.”
------------------------------
{CLOUD}
“What's that?”
------------------------------
Bugenhagen
“The sounds of the stars in the heavens.
While this goes on, planets are born, and die.”
------------------------------
{CLOUD}
“What was that?”
------------------------------
Bugenhagen
“Ho Ho Hoooo.
That was a scream from the Planet.”{NEW}
“Didn't you hear it? As if to say…
I hurt, I suffer…”
