Mcindus, JeMaCheHi, what about changing "golpes" for "impactos"? Since you're triggering the gun in the blade, that makes sense. Also, could you elaborate on the "completo" word? What are you referring to when you say "you've met the requirements"?

As for the "rapido" "lento", I'd leave the "+" "-" symbols, or add an accent in "rápido".

Thank you so much Mcindus! Are the non-english versions included in the main download yet? Also, does it include a rework on the low-res menu background? If not, how can we change it?

3
LoL... don't say that... I'm spending all this time on making the Spanish version...   :?

YAY!  :D

JeMaCheHi, you'd be surprised... There's a LEGION of FF7-8 fans in Spain. And the number keeps growing and growing... ;)

Hi! First of all, thank you so much for your work Mcindus. Keep it up!
I'm using the Spanish version and, just like the rest, some letters are changed whereas others aren't after applying the mod. However, what isn't changed at all is the menu background. It's obvious that it's received some love too in your mod, but is it an English-only change for now? How can we change it?

Cheers!

Getting better and better...

I think this mod really misses some new materia (replace some old useless stuff with something cool like contain-style attack magic). And you could change materias like ultima to something tri-phasic. Ultima-Ultimara-Ultimaga )

Nah, I personally wouldn't like it. I'm fine with upgrading graphics and such, but modifying materia would be going a little too far for me. Anyway, I wouldn't ming having 2 patches: one that improved the overall graphic & music quality and another which would add some extra content or modified in-game mechanics. That way, people who just want to play FF7 with the best quality could do so without having to install content that they wouldn't be interested in.

That's terrific!  ;D

/anxious mode ON

BTW:

Solved Fancy_Tranparency conflicts...it should now remain "off" at all times
does that mean you've removed the whole option from the patch? (that is, can we no longer set it on?) It was somewhat buggy but really nice nonetheless.  :-\

Aali, is your latest driver included in titeguy3 2.5 patch? If not, could you provide a link to download it?

BTW, I assume it doesn't have an option to remove the black bar yet; but are you actually planning to work on it?

Thanks!  :D

Many thanks, Mako! I'm downloading the file right now  :D

And Titeguy3, my ff7_opengl.cfg states that direct_mode is off, so I believe that's not the problem. Maybe it's related with having installed the game on a different location :? but as I said, as soon as I turned off the filters it worked. Weird

EDIT: The fonts work WONDERS!  ;) Thank you so much Mako. Which program did you use to fix it?

10
titeguy3, got some problems after leaving Shinra for the 1st time: Highway minigame is still pretty fast (no lightspeed but definitely twice as fast as it was intended to be, if not more), even having vsync and framelimiter on. Also, when fighting Motor ball at the end of the minigame the game freezes whenever the boss throws Rolling Fire (the flamethrower). I got pretty much every filter on: smartbloom, linear... just in case it's of any help.
My APP.LOG is really long (160 KB). Link here: http://rapidshare.com/files/355468783/APP.LOG  
Got any idea to throw some light here?
Thanks.

EDIT: OK, solved it, kinda. I turned off every filter and eventually I could get through that boss. Anyway, I still would like to know why that ocurred and if there's something I can do to play minigames at a normal pace.

11
Thank you Mako! That's very kind of you, I appreciate it. ;)

12
Wow, really? You could get rid of that black part? Looking forward to seeing it!  :)

The semi-transparent battle menu would be AWESOME, by the way.

13
Actually, it isn't a matter of changing resolution; it's more like making that specific portion of the screen visible in battles. If you were to change resolution the black zone would change too. Never found a way to fix it, though. I suppose Gamespot screenshots were promo pictures, since I've never seen anyone without the annoying black strip under the character status bar.

14
Thanks to both. BTW just two more questions  :-D isn't there a way to get rid of the black part of the screen that's ALWAYS down there? I remember screenshots from Gamespot that didn't have it.
Like this one:


And, titeguy3 are you planning to release a similar patch for FFVIII? I miss playing that game too! I know your patch is made of many, but it's really easy to apply and many of us would be really thankful for that.

15
Sorry my mistake. Remove this whenever possible.

Thank you once again sl1982. I've installed the Spanish fonts, but I believe I've found a problem with files USBHxx.PNG and USBLxx.PNG (where xx are all the numbers included in them).

The problem is nothing serious, but I'd like to tell you in case you could fix it (or at least tell me how I could fix it myself). It's related to the height of two capital letters with accents that are included in those files (A and E). More specifically, how their height including accents affect two other letters that are right above them in the chart: "l" and "n". Check these pictures taken from the chart, so that you can see it clearly:

//////////

As a result, every single time letters "l" or "n" appear on screen they include annoying dots below (which are, in fact, remains of the accents of the capital letters below them in the chart):





You see? So, is there a way to adjust those letters in the charts to avoid this?  :?
Sorry for all the trouble I'm causing you all.

Thanks sl1982, but as I said, I'm a litte confused. Is this what I have to download to change fonts? I'm on 1360x768.

High Res (works best with higher resolution gaming)
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=6U65KS69 Beta 9 (High Res)

It's in: http://forums.qhimm.com/index.php?topic=9151.0

And this is an .exe, could you please tell me if there are instructions for it?

Finally I discovered I had to write 3 times in a row because of the lack of support for international fonts in the forum (I wanted to exemplify some vowels with accents and apparently that was what caused so much trouble when posting). When I stopped writing examples everything went fine. I also tried to delete the previous posts but there wasn't a button for it.  ::)

Anyway, big thanks for your support! You were right, and linear filter was what I needed to get rid of those pixels in the battle backgrounds. As you said you lose some detail on higher quality textures but it's worth the change in my opinion.  :D
Also, titeguy3 I got the chance to read your post before you edited it to show agreement with sl1982; so I modified the file you suggested. It solved the problem with accents but still shows the main menu in English; therefore I'd like to try the Avalanche installer mentioned by sl1982. Does it have another purpose or was it mainly developed to change ingame fonts? And, could you provide a link for it? I don't want to download an older version and screw it up.  :-D

And, regarding the issue about pixelation, I believe you thought I was referring to the pseudo-3d backgrounds of the game (pre-rendered), but actually I was talking about the 3D environment of battles. Look at these examples:
1) Here you have how ground and backgrounds in battles used to look (I played like this both with standard resolution and with high resolution when the HR patch came out, so it's not a matter of resolution, as you mentioned in your reply):


2) And here you have how it looks now on my computer (I borrowed this image from dolphingunblade above, since it's similar to mine).


See how pixelated is the background? As I said, I don't think it's because of the higher resolution, since I played with HR before and it was smooth.
Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

I'll post it again anyway: The thing about changing language to Spanish in the game didn't work so well: Now, dialogues and items are in Spanish, but the main menu (with settings, stats..) is still in English. How can I change it?
Also, in Spanish we have stressed vowels (that is, vowels with an accent above them), but it seems they're not supported by the current font that has been included in the patch: whenever one appears in a dialogue or item name it is omitted, leaving a strange empty space in the word that contained it. For that reason, is there a way to change the current font to another that supports vowels with accents?

21
Strange, I cannot reply without having my message cut down! I've tried to give you some feedback about my situation but my message doesn't appear correctly written in the forum. ¿Why is that?

23
First of all, thank you for the effort you all put to make this game better and better.  :D

Then, regarding this patch, I've got two problems that I'd like to ask about:
1) I'm Spanish (greetings from Spain!), so I'd like to play it again in my language. Is there a way of changing the language after applying the patch? That includes menu, battle, dialogues.. all of it.

2) The game looks superb after patching and everything works fine (postprocessing included), but I've noticed that, even with post processing and fancy transparencies on, the ground and background in battles isn't smooth, but pixelated (it improves a little bit with post processing, but pixels are clearly there). I remember having played this game with 3D settings that made pixels smooth, and I was wondering if there was a way to do so here again.

Looking forward to your reply!  ;D

Just you ;)

 Nah, seriously, PSX uses a completely different way to play discs, therefore is impossible to apply any PC patch.

25
Oh I forgot to mention that the first time I tried to apply the Reunion patch, a file got corrupted somehow. If it happens to you, don't get in panic and try it for a second time.
