[REL] Omzy's FFVII Field Pack (dramatically improved backgrounds!)
Omzy:
Updated 8/20/12, Posted new download including all recent fixes, no longer providing links for old downloads = PROJECT COMPLETE
*This is the thread for the Field Pack release, not for the FacePalmer script. See FacePalmer v3.0 for that.
Omzy's FFVII Field Pack
A 100% complete collection of 4x-resized background textures for FFVII.
These are the result of my field resizing batch script FacePalmer. In addition, dozens of special cases were finished by hand.
Download
Download the 3GB field pack. Then, if there are other files that have been fixed, you can download those and apply them individually.
*It is recommended not to use the 'remove glitched textures' option in Bootleg or you may irreversibly lose a lot of playable content.
*If any of these links go dead, send me a PM (it emails me instantly).
Omzy's FFVII Field Pack (~3GB)
Install
After downloading the field pack, you may download individual fixes and 'patch' the folders inside the big pack with the fix (copy&replace). Once finished, you should have a field folder that is ~3.05gb. Your directory structure should resemble this:
C:\Program Files\Final Fantasy VII\mods\FacePalmer\field\(lots of folders)
In the ff7_opengl.cfg file, find the line with the mod_path and change it to:
mod_path = FacePalmer/
To suppress "GLITCH: missed palette write to external texture" messages, add the following lines to the end of your ff7_opengl.cfg file:
# Disable Error Notifications
disable_popup = on
Feedback
If you have trouble installing or getting files downloaded, post in this forum so that others can respond with help.
Don't hesitate to PM me if you find any issues with in-game bugs or quality. I haven't had a chance to playtest everything myself, so there may yet be a few things that aren't completely right.

Just started testing...
Just wanted to say thanks so much for doing this and making it available to everyone.
Starting a new game... so far the backgrounds are the best I've seen in game. Absolutely loving it.

Thank you for the support ;D
I am still pretty dissatisfied with the lighting problems, but I'll eventually get around to fixing that.
