What does actually happen with the game, if not the new models are installed in the flashback scene, where Sephiroth does kill the villager?

I have made the scene work for both new and old models. The villager is beheaded in both. The new models have blood... but it's hard to see.

Fat guy at the Wonder Square has his hair glitching out.  I've actually seen a couple more NPCs that glitches out like the jockey with the blue hat in the waiting room.

Picture of Cloud during the Chocobo race should be self-explanatory.

Any reason to why 'Ropeway' is capitalized..?  I figured it'd be similar to someone saying, "let's go ride the tram".  You wouldn't capitalize the T in 'tram'.

That glitch is probably again to do with Steam - although I was sure we had that issue ages ago and it was fixed.  I'll take another look at it.   I agree on ropeway.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ropeway

In fact, it's correct on all but one map already.

Questions about glitching models should be taken to Kaldarasha's Chaos thread :)  With a picture of the offending model and the area.

Duly noted for future reports.

I noticed that Cloud's Crime Hazard LB is glitching out as well.  He runs to impale his sword into the targeted enemy as usual, but then slides back quite a bit before transitioning into the uppercut.
Could you double check this Dan?

Even if this is the case, I can't fix it :P  It's not a fault with The Reunion.  If it's caused by 60fps mod, then it's there to stay because I can't fix that either ;) The only hope for 60fps mod (if it's causing the problem) is for someone like NFITC1 or Dziugo to fix it using my method or a new method.

If it isn't 60fps mod, this bug report needs to be placed on a generic thread for bugs. Or you could PM White Wind with the issue.  It will be added to the bug database.

http://english.stackexchange.com/questions/76057/why-is-fulfil-spelt-as-fulfill-in-american-english

I recall a wider debate on this and whether it had to change for the American English spelling. I am sure I ended up deliberately leaving it out.  Looking at it now though, it does seem that fulfill is used in US far more.

edit

ullfil >ullfill

I made a mistake...  :P  Should be "ulfil>ulfill"

The interaction with the levers is a bit weird.  Can't interact with it if I face it directly, but if I stand next to the machine and face towards the left, it works.

Extra space after Gorky.

pretty good > pretty well
Well is an adverb.  Good is an adjective.  You handled yourself pretty [WORD].  What was handled?  Yourself.  How was it handled?  It was handled well.  You would say, "the food is pretty good".

That is only when dealing with strict grammar - not in speech or in script. Shake is young and the least refined with speech (the Japanese makes it clear that each level in the Pagoda has a more refined speech pattern), and the line has been deliberately made that way for that very reason. This is the third time someone has brought this up. :P This goes for any situation where someone may not use correct grammar. It would be a mistake for Bugenhagen or Hojo to use that line - but not Shake.

The lever issue should be reported to a separate bug thread or to White Wind as it isn't a problem with The Reunion (of course, I do add field fixes to The Reunion from ordinary bug reports - and I'll look into this one too. Edit.  I've looked into it and it's probably just a crap location line. Easily fixed.).

The Gorky issue cannot be fixed at the moment [probably]... it's again because of the crap engine. It doesn't add a space automatically so you have to add one manually.  I'll look into it.

Also, after defeating Godot, he says something along the lines of "... you have both the will, and the power".  Is that intentional as well?  Or would "the will and power" make more sense?

Each level is supposed to be more refined, but then why did they make Gorky first then...?  Shouldn't they have programmed Shake to be first, and then Gorky, Chek, etc...?

The comma is a mistake (it should either be omitted or be an ellipsis), but the line is fine.  Perhaps, but Gorky is also the main host.  So he's different. They all have different speech refinements.  It's probably a joke that Shake has the worst - because he's named after Shakespeare. It's not possible to fully capture the Japanese feel here - but we've done our best :)

During the scene between Sephiroth and Zeng in the TotA, there's no dialogue between the two after Zeng asks what this place is.  Also, Tifa seems to be missing in spirit form.

This is a known issue with kaldarasha's models. I think I also listed it on the Bugtracker or somewhere. The Experts' Hall also has a problem.

The dialogue is fine on my side.  Which texts do you think are missing?

I think the entirety of Sephiroth's explanation dialogue and any action(s) from beyond Zeng's question of "One with the planet?".  Pretty much everything after 4:10 here in this sample video.

https://youtu.be/haTQ4D-W6gM?t=4m10s

Sephiroth's model isn't blinking (not sure if he does that with the mods installed), and no dialogue is showing up on the screen.  I also don't recall Sephiroth slashing Zeng either.
Let me replay the game from my most recent save, and then I'll edit this post afterwards with any screenshots and whatnot.  Wait for my edit.

Again, the only mods I have installed is Anxious Heart, Reunion, and Hotfix 1.

I cant see how dialogue could be affected since I havent edited code on that map. And it's fine when I play through.  So recheck - and if possible try without models.

Welp, turns out, you're spot on with the assumption.  Seems like the models somehow broke the dialogue.  Pictures are proof.
Took screenshots at the same moment with and without models.

Perhaps that version of Reunion somehow does have an edited file....  It's a but strange though that it could do that. Models shouldn't be able to interrupt dialogue.  I'll investigate.

The same thing happens the next time you meet Sephiroth in the temple.  The entire temple seems to be glitched out.  Also, this will be posted in Kal's thread, but just wanted to note it down here... Sephiroth's blade is black in spirit form.

On another note out of curiosity, any ETA on HF2 and R06?

No ETA.  No point me giving one when I'd be guessing :)

The Sephiroth thing is also probably to do with transparency at the temple. Breaks the models, but Kal is trying to fix it up. :)

So I was messing around with several ideas, or at I'm trying to... ;D
The dialogue boxes seem to be affected by transparency set on the models.  They appear just fine when no models are transparent, and only break when there are transparent models on the screen.

Yeah but that would affect the original models and it doesn't.  It might also be a Steam issue again because I've never seen this on 1998. I'll run through this part later.

Aerith was saying something about the answer lies just ahead, in the City of the Ancients.  This is the following dialogue.  Shouldn't it be "at least... it should be" instead of "it should do"?  She's been told that the answer is there, but isn't sure...

Also, mentioned this before, but sometimes the camera doesn't pan completely to the direction where your model is.  This results in you being able to go off screen or not being able to see certain elements on the screen.

Nope. The dialogue is fine (in fact your version is grammatically wrong). It's probably best not to report lax speech grammar or whatever, because we'll be here all day with it. Report only spelling mistakes, double spaces, double words, or wrong American spellings for this release (and there shouldn't be any spelling mistakes).  A lot of other smaller issues are being ironed out, but going over localization choices line by line is definitely not needed or necessary.  Plus the ones I have seen have been fine.

The panning is how the engine works vs the edge of the screen. There's not much that can be done about it - in fact, probably nothing.  Plus that isn't a fault of The Reunion.  But if you write this stuff in a separate bug thread - along with the specific place and so on, I (or White Wind) will look into it.
