Releases / Battle model > Field model Conversion FINALLY!!
« on: 2005-08-02 05:21:45 »
Reunion,

just a perhaps stupid question: why don't you directly make your modified char.lpg and those other needed files downloadable after your modifications so that they just need to be copy pasted in the proper directories ?

In this way, lots of users that can't (for some reason), make the conversion, won't have any more problems  :) I personally had no issuess with the process itself but, for instance, Ficedula's tool often locked up my system and other people might have similar problems with this program.

But perhaps size does matter and the file'd be too big to upload...Thanks a lot for your wonderful project!  :love:

Elentor,

I - and I am sure many, many others - would believe that tweaking the stealing rate would reduce drastically one of the main point of frustrations of the game. As it is by default, stealing is just a big pain in the ass which people won't accept to go through (and they're right).

Tweaking it to increase the success rate to a reasonable level instead will make fighting much more enjoyable and people will actaully try and steal things off the enemies.

I do hope you will accept to implement a minor tweaking (raising some the percentage of success) to the stealing rate so that it will be enough for me to just use your Mod to have its benefits! Thanks a lot!

That's just great,M4v3R! I'd love to see a patch that sets the stealing rate to a reasonable level mostly because with the Hardcore patch, surviving battles for a longer time in order to steal becomes even more difficult and frustrating...Perhaps Elantor might include some tweaking to the stealing rate in his own patch ? I think most people agree with me that the this could stop much of the frustration in battles...Cheers!

Forgive my intrusion and perhaps the silly question: can one edit how succesfull the stealing rate is ? I have always found this extremely frustrating and, if possible, I'd make the chances higher by default. Sorry if this request is stupid or simply posted in the wrong topic. Thanks for all you guys are doing for FF7 fans like me!  :love:

Hello!

Forgive my perhaps silly question but being a newbie I think I'd like your opinions about this.

Are the Hands Patch, the Battle->Field Patch, the FFVII High Resolution patch all compatible one with the others ?

Also: does it matter the order such patches are installed ?

Thanks for your replies!

Hello and thanks for sharing your project with us all.

I think your original idea of rebalancing the game is *EXTREMELY* interesting and I had hoped someone could come up with it.

I do appreaciate your job but please consider something that for me is mandatory: the general difficulty level of the game might be well enhanced by your modifications BUT...but I do believe that there is a Boss in the game that is *totally* overpowered, spoiling the game. At least it partly spoiled the game ( for me still the best of the series) for me.

I am speaking about Emerald Weapon. To kill this boss it's almost needed to not only have a certain summoning materia but also to mime it continuously being also protected by "Life3". Not to mention that the whole fighting becomes very very frustrating and repetitive. The player finds himself being killed after spending 20 minutes in the fight just to start it over again for the 35th time. Yes, there is no need to defeat such a boss in order to finish the game but still why make it so frustrating ?

This challenge makes all the rest in the game pale at comparison. Square made this error, according to me, of making this "bonus boss" unbalanced. Should you want to defeat her, must you go with an extremely strong party. And if you go with an extremely strong party, then all the rest of the game will be too easy.

I assume that people try and fight Emerald when they have the opportunity and not just before the final challenge against Sephiroth. Also, people would like to be rewarded for defeating these "bonus bosses" in the middle of the game and not by the end.

So please consider the possibility of making Emerald *less* strong than she is by dafault. I'd think the whole gameplay would benefit of this.

A second issue which is also very frustrating (and it's a classic in the FF series) is the STEAL option. It's way way way too frustrating to keep on trying stealing from bosses for 100 times before you can actually make it! I do believe that the success rate of stealing should be pretty much raised in order to make it enjoyable. I had found myself (not only in FF7) spending one or two hour with a boss untill I could finally get an item out of him...This is crazy...I don't know if that is something that can be modified but it's somethig I would definitely do...

Thanks!
