[FF7] Disable name change

[Ansem]

Actually, there is a pretty simple but ugly workaround. Simply use the forced rename function right after the traditional name screen.

Yeah that does suck totally though...  I mean you'd name a character then see it changed.  So if this can't be fixed any other way, we're back to making the name menu impossible to edit - forcing the name.

is it possible to use make that menu just quickly hit the ok button automaticly?

[Tsuna]

I considered that. Thought it would be easier

Dirty trick: Let player choose whatever name then rewrite it with the get name from text.

That's what we discussed above, but that's a lousy fix and looks ridiculous.

Yeah, that's probably the best option now. To just bypass the user being able to press OK - and let the program do it.


You can force it with:

719027 = 90 90 90 90 90 90
71915B = 90 90
71917C = 90 90 90 90 90

That still displays the screen briefly.  If you want me to make it so it just goes dark - I can probably do that too. But it's a little more tricky to work out.  Test the above for me and see how it goes.

Yeah this works really well, if there is a way to make the screen go through seemlessly that you wouldn't even notice that would be epic. Or have a PNG display over the window that looked like a loading screen

Edit: Like having them unused blank maps called on top of the naming screen for a short time but i can change the way the map looks outside of game and stick that in instead

Are you able to make this process faster? It works perfectly but would be great if it was quicker

[DLPB_]

That's about as fast as it can do it. Edit. Well, prob can be faster but not much.

Ok no worries man. Thanks
