After reinstalling with a clean registry after the random battle issues, I got the chance to update to the 2.0 version of the catalog mods.
Most everything seems to work as it should, except for the Team Avalanche fields (for the record, it's second on my priority list under the dynamic Cloud weapons, since I don't use the Sephiroth or Jesse mods). I'm also using the Because exe despite not actually using Because since the Menu Overhaul mod doesn't work with the normal exe.
Am I missing something? The mod doesn't seem to have a readme so I can't check if there's anything I'm doing wrong, but I think it should work since everything else does.
For reference, I attached an image of what my field looks like, in Wutai.
