Welcome to my new Sephiroth Patch! This is the classical patch, a full swap of Cloud and Sephiroth in all fields and battlegrounds. Both characters are fully animated, for battle I kept Sephiroth's original animations and added missing elements such as tossing items or doing limit breaks. All models for Cloud and Sephiroth are derrived from the HQ battle models of their final fight and thus look totally amazing, this Sephiroth patch is the complete one!
List of features:
- Sephiroth and Cloud are swapped in field and use the former animations of their counterpart, all texts in field are adjusted to display "Cloud" instead of "Sephiroth"
- High quality models are used, battle model parts plus carrying a weapon - see the screenshots! :)
- Fully animated Sephiroth battle model doing sense, manipulate, steal , taking damage, tossing/using items and also executing all of Cloud's Limit breaks!
(though they look strawberriesty ... :O) )
- Sepher Seph and Final Seph turned into Cloud equivalents, this is consistent to the very end :)
- Sephiroth using the masamune plus all of Cloud's weapons: Buster Sword->long sword(masamune model), Ragnarok->Masamune, Masamune carried by Cloud=Buster Sword, Im sure you get the idea :)

In case you wonder why Heroes for PSX is not been continued for so long, well I will finish it. But I released disc 1 too early, it is more work than I expected. As modding on PC is far simpler I thought Id just swing out a PC release, Enjoy!

hey
is sephiorth shirtless through this whole ff7 mod?
and i will test out this mod out for you soon
-
Yo! As switching around models is so easy on pc Ill add some more costumes for customization. There are many options, standard with coat, naked arms but body clothing, naked arms, body clothing but no coat, soldier uniform, different colors...Ill keep it updated but for now I found this most badass (especially in the snow fields :D ). I just played from start till rocket town, no problems.
-
Agree, this costume is definitly the best, its really sad they didnt stay on this kind of design for all FF7 sequels, the new generation sephiroth really sucks compared to this, anyway good job , this looks really nice
-
Do you think Sephiroth has cold?? :P great job dude
-
Thanks my friends ;)
-
hey messbaker
is there anyway you could make a Zack ff7 mod 1 day
and keep up the great work on your mod
i like it alot
and jessie is moon walking up the ladder when you exit the first rector at the start of your mod
-
and jessie is moon walking up the ladder when you exit the first rector at the start of your mod
She does that sometimes in any version of the game, might be something to do with opening/closing the menu while she's on the ladder.

Thanks to:

-NFITC1 for Wall Market, Proud Clod and his wisdom
You're welcome? I have no idea what I did for this though.
-
@Sega Chief, yeah exactly that triggers it ;)
NFITC1: ummm long story...well credit for wm and PrC should be obvious but when I started out here 2-3 years ago I didnt quite follow the basic rule of learning on my own 'cause I was so keen on doing my very own mods, I must have raised like a thousand dumb questions, I remember posting many in your own thread and you were at the frontline of answering every single one of them. I was mr. impatience 3000.
Then i got to know lazy bastard and I started raising a wave of psx modding and made new findings along with jeet and vayneruel and now when i look back I just admire how well i was supported and now people actually ask me for advice.
I will just never forget how well I was received when I was new and all those blank questions in NFIT's threads in particular. I will not forget this! :)
-
I will attempt to answer any question to the best of my ability as long as the one asking is polite. My 3yo has recently entered the "why" phase of mental development and I try to answer every question because I really want her to want to learn. I extend that desire to others and want aspiring newbies to become hacking/modding experts if they wish and they can't do that if their questions go unanswered or are ridiculed.
I'm still don't know how WM or PrC fit in to the creation of this mod, but if they helped then power to 'em. :D

You can also replace the models of the minigames except of the snowboard minigame. It has some extra compressed files where the models are stored in.
An idea for the upper body. You could use Clouds one. In Kimera is a pallet function were you can edit the color of similar colors at once.
You should use for Cloud the model by Bloodshot it has the SOLDIER symbol as a 3D mesh or you add the clouds texture to the upper body you use (check if the texture ID is 0 for the texture mesh).
-
@NFITC1 oh you meant that? Well I had to do some kernel edits to edit the initial data renaming swords and seph into cloud. and for scene.bin i named safer seph ane final seph in cloud equivalents.
@Kaldarasha I'll look into it!
-
hey messbaker
i am out of the church now with aeries
and i am liking your mod so far
keep up the great work
-
Thx, I'm glad to hear that ;)
-
First small update is there, the game may even crash on the parachute scene on disc 2 if it is not installed.
-
hey messbaker
is there anyway you could make a zack playable ff7 mod 1 day
just curious
-
Unlikely. Im not a 3d modeller just programmer so I will only use 3d objects and models that come packed with the game. Zack only has a field model and putting that head onto a battle model is nuts. If you have more questions on this matter lets please continue this in private message.

I have an iro for that. It's a very simple replacement (only the main field model and the battle model) because I will use it to explain how to make an iro mod.

Could you look into the two tmd files of the snowboard-us.lgp and see if there is a way to extract the models out of them? Would be very cool if we could finally replace these damn models.
-
Challenge accepted!
The model is roughly between 0x1000-0x5000 for_gs. The last part of the model is the snowboard, after that there is snow colors.
Im gonna try change some rgbs and delete parts to find out if Im right and to see which parts actually change.
-
Sorry I'm late to the party, and thanks for the honorable mention :)
Looks quite good; almost makes me want to play the PC version :P
-
Thanks my friend, its just 10 bucks on steam, go grab it :D
Snowboard: Well as expected for_gs means for gold saucer and for ev is for story. You can even delete forgs and it wont mess up accessing the snowboard game from the debug room.
Well I just colored certain parts of Clouds model black. Look closely, there are black stripes on his right leg, his left arm and his hip. Seems Im on the right track, from about 0x5000 to the end of the file there is snow rgbs and at the end of Clouds model is the snowboard. Im not quite sure if the first 1000 bytes are offsets or other models. There is a lot of strong green rgbs there, seems to be some offsets and pointers. Id say the model is roughly about 0x1000-0x5000, now the question is how to use that in kimera.

I assume they will have the same file system as usual (hrc, rsd, p and a) but are compressed to one data block, so the module won't be so big in the memory when it will be loaded in. If so the main thing to do is to find a way to extract the models out of it and repack edited models back.
-
Update 1.3 is out! I updated the mainfile, if you use this please get the new version.
I finally got the bike minigame to work. I never believed I could get the whole battle model on that bike, the skeleton of the base model is super strange. Was quite some work to get the proportions right and the animations looking good, but here it is! Only snowboard cloud to go....

P.S
Almost forgot, does anybody know how to replace those pixelated avatars of the minigame? They are even slightly animated...
-
hi there i am glad there's new sephiroth patch to play with the mod seems awesome but i have a question to ask could you use the sephiroth model from kingdom hearts 2 as the model for this game i really love sephiroth with KH texture or using crisis core model also nice
-

There's a tool by Borde called Image2TEX that can do it. If you find and convert the sprite sheet that'll (probably) be in Highway.lgp along with one of Seph's menu portraits you could open it in photoshop or similar and then shrink down/copy-paste the menu portrait over the several frames for Cloud before saving/converting back into a .TEX file. I remember doing it for Cid once upon a time.

Models from other games are not allowed to use here without permission from the author(s).
-
sry didn't know about that rule here :(
-
Do you believe this, or other sephiroth mods, would be compatible with the New Threat?
-
Hello, I am new here I use google translator, I feel my bad English and installed the patch and everything okey what I do not understand is because in the menus the photo the avatar leaves the cloud not the sephiroth why? How can I change that? Thank you
-
Amazing mod and this is probably a stupid question but how do you install this?
-
Apologies for the necro, but a user was trying to make an IRO of this and I ended up putting one together:
https://www.mediafire.com/file/1u7qt2g3q1j9357/FF7_Imperis_v1.3_-_Meesbaker.iro/file
Will remove if the mod author doesn't want this around. I did some basic testing and it seemed OK, but for speed I didn't filter the lgp archives for default files so it'll be less compatible than it could be (particularly the flevel).

looks like imperis v1.3 mediafire download link is down, unable to download it. does anyone have a working download link?
