Graphical / [REL/FF7] JordieBo's Opening Credits

« on: 2011-08-30 13:50:45 »

Probably not high in the demands list for FFVII mods but it had to be done eventually. Here's an updated opening credits scene for Final Fantasy VII.

I've made a few versions, one slightly more true to the original, and some others just because I can.
Oh and I've chosen to use quite a simple font for the text as it looks a lot more true to the original than anything fancy.

Version 1
Download Link - http://www.megaupload.com/?d=T34KLKZH


Version 2
Download Link - http://www.megaupload.com/?d=YWJQI581


Version 3
Download Link - http://www.megaupload.com/?d=R999NR7D


All installation instructions are in the README

yep, keeping the work close to original is good, but seriously - guns need to look modern.

Well, I dunno. I think they suit him, since he's been stuck in a coffin for god knows how many years. I bet he still has one of these babies too: http://tinyurl.com/2czqzb6

Just a thought, if you kept it close to the original you could offer it to Team Avalanche to speed up the process

Probably not very important, but you said you recognised the Sister Ray font so...

In response to the sister ray map, I'm pretty sure the font is Helvetica (in Bold).
It's one of the most commonly used fonts, and is known as a designer's best friend. So I wouldn't be surprised if it's used in FFVII 



Shoddy attempt to compare the two, but you get the idea ^^

Good to hear, good to know Qhimm has respectable, unoffensive members like yourself. Now go read a human rights law book or something similar. kthxbai.

Fail:

Woo! Someone did it! Well personally I think the current is the best, despite one member calling it chavvy :L  Besides the chav comment, I'm thinking it was directed at your jewelery not your haircut So you still win! 

Your fail wasnt bad...It was just curly hair... I dont see anything fail with it.

Well when I said fail I just generally meant your least favourite ^^

Yeah... your hair looks like an emo fag's...  I think your 2006 hair looks decent and respectable.... says the guy who desires shoulder length hair....................so he can see what it looks like while he still has hair to grow

Well, not trying to get personal but emo fag isn't far off... :L

Well I just dyed my hair WHITE so I thought I'd share it with you.

CURRENT - 9th August 2010



Before I cut my hair and dyed it it looked like either of these:

PREVIOUS - Left 31st August 2009 - Right 3rd February 2010



I've always wanted really bright hair, not sure why! Last time I tried to do it I was about 12, and it went ginger, so I had to dye it brown, which went ginger brown. Oh dear!

FAIL - Sometime in 2006 when I was 12



Yes, I have always looked older 

So anyone else want to share their hair affairs?

And best part this model is available free for any non-commercial use, meaning it wouldn't be illegal to make a mod with it, just kind of waste as ff7 would never render it like that:P. In ff7 it would look just ugly in compare to such renders. ~_~

Well you could get a tiny bit closer to it by doing this perhaps?

Just thought I should point this out; having the game fully voiced? Long story short; no. Ever heard of FF7Voice? That failed. We have the know-how to voice the PC Game and we STILL couldn't achieve it. It's basically technologically impossible to do it for the Playstation version for a start, so yeah.

« on: 2010-07-20 14:24:15 »

This should definitely be completed, there will be people out there who won't want full on remade models and would rather stay to the simple style, or just can't get Team Avalanche's mod to work. So I think this mod is a great idea!

What I want to know is, why did I not hear about this earlier! The Shin-ra MP's are actually my favourite characters in FFVII (Yes, odd I know) so I'd love to see them updated. Any chance of a release? I'm sure it's legal as it's made of models from battle.lgp

Keep it up (:

Hm! Well in that case could I possibly see the original world map grass texture and the grass texture with the Chocobo tracks? I know they've already been done, but I'd like to see if I can do it.

Okay here is a portion of what I achieved, I'll need a bit more practice but I think I'm making a good start!







I'll have to have a fiddle around, I'm thinking that with this skill, things like fur could be easily created. I shall post some more results when I actually achieve something worth showing

« on: 2010-07-19 21:13:19 »

Basically,
I'd love to help out with projects such as Team Avalanche, and I am about to go into A-Level Graphic Design, so I'm not new to Photoshop. But I really don't know where to start, and fiddling around with buttons really doesn't do the job.

Can anyone recommend some tutorials or something similar for me to start texturing? Here some stuff I've done:

http://img844.imageshack.us/f/greengrungepaper.jpg/

http://img830.imageshack.us/f/graphictee.jpg/
http://img828.imageshack.us/img828/415/46356042.png

So as you can see, I'm not completely new to Photoshop, and I learn very quickly, but I really don't know where to go to start =\

I have spent HOURS working on getting them to follow you up ladders. Its not happening

Would it be possible to make Cloud pause, and have everyone go back into Cloud before climbing ladders? And then come back out after? It would only delay gameplay by like 1 second.

No TA is all about maintaining the original graphics but with a hi-res update.

The "fresh" font looks good but I agree about maintaining original graphics. Also, how come TA is about originality, yet the TA Download comes with new avatars?

Troubleshooting / Re: Aali's driver [v 0.7.8b] Help/Bugs/Suggestions

« on: 2010-07-17 15:17:35 »

Just tried all of those, and nothing is changing 

By the way:

Manufacturer: FUJITSU

Rating: 1.0 Windoes Experience Index: Unrated

Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU T7300 : 2.00GHz 2.00 Ghz

Memory (RAM): 2.00

System type: 32-bit Operating System

----------------------------------------FIXED---------------------------------------

Okay! I fixed it! I didn't realise I had to replace the ff7.exe with the 1.02 patch! I installed it and it worked.
Okay I think the maximum resolution I can have is 1280 x 800 so I chose that and I got this:



Which is much nicer

Now is that the highest resolution I can get with my settings? Is there any way to make it fit anymore?

Also, what would you recommend I change in the opengl?

Troubleshooting / Re: Aali's driver [v 0.7.8b] Help/Bugs/Suggestions

« on: 2010-07-17 14:58:52 »

Basically, I've gone to this page:

http://forums.qhimm.com/index.php?topic=8306.msg142017

I have downloaded "ff7_opengl-0.7.8b.zip" (The last post on page 2)

This is the first time I have ever downloaded Aali's Custom Drivers by the way. So I opened the RAR file, and extracted everything in the file to "C:\Program Files\Square Soft, Inc\Final Fantasy VII".

I ran the modified FF7Config, chose Custom Driver and I got a message saying that it was working.

The next step says that I have to "Change your settings in ff7_opengl.cfg", I have no idea what this means so I left it. I ran the game and nothing had changed. I heard that this driver was supposed to run the game in a much higher resolution, upon opening the game, and printscreening it, the resolution was the same. I then tried to test the ff7_opengl.cfg by choosing on for things like "make all dialog boxes transparent", I then tested and nothing had changed once again.

I'm not sure what I'm doing, or what setting I'm supposed to change. Help would be very appreciated.

« on: 2010-07-11 00:57:24 »

OK I know its been along time since i posted here and here's why. Ive recently got a full time job which has drained all my time to work on this project. Also just for the icing on the cake Ive moved in with my GF who is fine with me working on this she loves Final Fantasy herself. Last week I learned I am to be a Father. this is probably all my free time gone so the reason I'm posting this is because I'm looking for someone to take this on or help me finish it before I have the Kid (next year) I had disc 1 done but my hardrive died and i didn't back it up but I'm not to bothered about starting again. If anyone wants to take this on I'm willing to teach people how to do this and help anyway I can. If not ill try get as much of this done as possible before Its too late.

Sorry but I'm sure many of us here didn't see GF and think Girlfriend :L

FF7Voice / Re: Questions regarding the hiatus

« on: 2010-07-10 18:58:00 »

Just a question, was I put on this shortlist?

No. 

But that's not necessarily by any fault of yours as its a VERY short list consisting of above average dedicated individuals who stood above the rest.

I even left my own character spot open to consideration in that list.

When this resumes, you'll be more than welcome to audition again however.

Most roles will be open so there's the possibility that  maybe you'll be awarded a bigger role.

Ah okay then. Well, I feel that I have improved since the initial auditions so I'll be more than happy to audition for a larger role. When we say an indefinite hold, what steps would one have to take to bring this project back to life?

Hey, quite a while ago I saw something about putting custom videos and cutscenes into FF7, I'm working on a mod and I would like to put my own videos into it. Now I've searched and I can't seem to find anything, could someone link me to the exact post that explains how to do it, or just tell me? Once I've done it you can delete this thread if you like (:
Thanks.

Troubleshooting / The APZ Cloud Project!!!!

« on: 2009-08-31 15:42:33 »

Lemme give you guys a slice of my life.

-I go to work full time
-I go to school full time
-I'm the oldest of 9 children
-My brother was wrongly accused of criminal mischief and sentenced to 10 years
-In lieu of that, he gets 8 years of probation (He's innocent)
-My mother lost her house to the mortgage company
-My aunt is slandering us and accusing that same brother of molesting her child
-She's not interested in finding out who actually did it (my brother was in boot camp when it happened and barely knows that little girl at all)
-I'm working on 2 comic books
-I'm working on this (Updated battle model, 12 field models)
-I'm drawing album art for my friends music
-I'm designing patterns for upscale house decorating
-I have aspergers syndrome
-I have stress related hypertension
-I'm getting married in 3 months

I'm not making any patches, sorry!

I hope you guys understand that I'm a very busy person. and as much as I'd like to work on this a bunch. it's alittle low on my list of priorities. I'm not giving up on it. All i can do is ask for you patience and thank you guys for it. And thank you for loving my cloud the way i lovingly crafted every detail on him. Thanks!

I'm not trying to sound like a complete dick, but some of things weren't really nessacery. This is a forum for Final Fantasy discussion and modification, please leave that kind of discussion to the Completely Unrelated section because these kinds of posts make people feel bad for not doing anything to people who post them. I'm sorry if this has offended you in any way, I would just rather posts like these not created as they leave space for mis-interperation and arguments.
