Not sure what to use in FF7...
« on: 2008-08-19 11:59:42 »
I'm not sure if this is in the wrong place or not, but this is abotu tweakin my FF7 games so...


I want to use something to switch Cloud out for Zack... I've narrowed it down to 2 possible options, and I'm not sure which is better:

Either :http://forums.qhimm.com/index.php?topic=7256.0

That's Scorpicus's or should I use:


http://the-absolute-zack-project.tk/


They both look really good, but I'm just not sure which to use...

You should go with Scorpicus' I think.  He seems to have made Zack for more situations, where as the other link doesn't mention anything about World map, or Chocobo races (it might, I only had a quick look).

The only thing is, I personally prefer the original battle model Zack, to Scorpicus' CC rendition.  But that's just personal preferance. :-)

If Scorpicus would release a version with Zack's old hair, I'd use that in a freakin heartbeat...

I was just wondering.
Does Cloud also replace Zack in any of these?
I would use the one that swaps them. Not just turn you into Zack.
Maybe you could use a mix of the two?

The Zack mod from Scorpicus completely swaps Cloud and Zack.  Also it adds a few little things (Try getting the Aeris date in Gold Saucer to see what I mean =P)

Is your list of saves coming up in Jenova?  When you direct it to you save folder, you should get the list of all your save games.  Then select the one you want to edit, and away you go.  There isn't really any problems with it as far as I'm aware, and it's simple enough to use...

Download and install YAMP + MiniGamesPatch.

The only thing that YAMP modifies, is the ff7.exe file. And it makes a backup just before modifying it.

the installer doesn't recognize skerb, and the backup_ff7 doesn't work at all.

patcher says "something went wrong, dunno what"

I wonder why it happens every now and then. Rename the "skerb.ex_" file to "skerb.exe", then open install.bat with notepad and change this line:
Code: [Select]
set patcher_file=skerb.ex_so it looks like this:
Code: [Select]
set patcher_file=skerb.exeThis should do the trick.

And for the backup to work, you have to rename it to "ff7.exe".

Are all the files on your CD readable (ie. can you copy them all to the HDD without getting an IO error)?

I have no clue, and not sure how to find out without actually trying to copy them...

Well... What about actually copying them? Why can't you do it?
