Releases / Re: [FF7PC-98/Steam] FF7 Randomiser - Godo

Development on the randomisers are currently inactive at the moment; they need to be started over I think with a different approach.

That's a shame - I still really enjoy it as is!  I plan on keeping on with this seed and at least one more in the near future - would it help to have a tracked list of events where the text change option doesn't work, or are they pretty obvious already (or pointless because the randomiser is being reworked anyway)?  I'd offer to help on the randomiser, but I'm afraid bug/error hunting might be the limit of my usefulness =(.

In the interim, I'm still having tons of fun.  Thanks again for your reply and your hard work!

My apologies - I wanted to to edit and expand my first post, but I can't find the edit command on the forums (if it exists).

I wanted to add that during the Wutai sidequest with the flevel shuffle on, and odd glitch occurred.  When I opened the chest that is normally an MP absorb (the one in the materia shop), I received a notice that I was given a "Gil Plus" materia.  Yuffie immediately appears to steal, but instead of getting the stolen dialogue, it tells me I've received the "Odin" materia.  Neither was in my inventory after the "theft" event (as expected), but also neither was found after completing the remainder of the sidequest.

First and foremost, thank you to everyone who is working on the randomizer!  You're breathing new life into a game that already had tremendous replay value.  Your efforts are greatly appreciated!!

I've been trying various options with this randomizer.  Love the flevel editor so far, adding some notes here about my experience with it:

-In my seed, potions on the overworld were replaced with the Organics sword - I think this item probably has a unique identifier, because if I pick up any other potions with an Oragnics in my inventory, they revert to potions.

-For some reason, mixing flevel randomization doesn't seem to work with armor randomization.  I attempted to randomize number of slots, materia growth, defense, and magic defense of armors, but they all contain their vanilla values when used with the flevel randomizer.  I used a similar randomization pattern with weapons, and found that those ARE correctly randomized, whether given as initial equipment, or found later in the seed via chest/stealing/shop.  I haven't tried accessories, since it sounds like I'd have a tough time testing their functionality.

-I'd love to see shops randomized!  Could this happen with the flevel randomizer?

Bootleg Questions / Re: [FF7] Tutorial for Bootleg - Tifa's Bootleg

« on: 2014-08-11 15:34:16 »

Having a problem with music because I screwed around with something I shouldn't have and windows crashed on me.

This is the log from FF7Music:

Prevented from resuming
CSR9
WM_ACTIVATEAPP

LOG_SYSTEM: [GoogleUpdate:goopdate]: ERROR - Cannot create ETW log writer

Proceed with written floggings and laughter, then please help!

EDIT: I may have fixed this already by playing around in FF7Config as well as FF7Music under config.  I believe I was expecting an updated track where there shouldn't have been one (sector 7 pillar).
Proceed with floggings anyway.

Bootleg Questions / Re: [Tutorial] Tifa's Bootleg

« on: 2014-05-20 02:42:54 »

Hi everyone,

First thanks to the creators of the mods - I'm having a blast reliving my days in HD, and playing some challenges!  Thanks also to EQ2Alyza for being patient and responding to youtube, forums, and everywhere else possible.

The FAQ has covered every tweak that I need to make this game sing, however, I've got a black bar at the bottom of my screen in the Field screen only.  I'm running two monitors, and don't seem to easily be able to take a screenshot, so please allow me to list some of the (I think pertinent?) settings that may be the problem.

My monitors have a native resolution of 1920 x 1080.  In the bootloader configuration, I have entered these same values, and even gone so far as to match every config option as in the FAQ to no avail.

Full Screen, Preserve Aspect, Vsync, Refresh Rate at 60, Internal Resolution of 3840 x 2160.  The mods I'm running are best in show from the bootleg.exe, including Facepalmer, Ozmy, etc.

Please let me know if there's anything else useful that I might post here to solve this little issue!  Thank you for your time, and look forward to your reply!

Edit: I had enough time to comb through this entire thread and answered my own question.  For others that may see this post:

You have black bars because you have preserve aspect turned on and there's always one on the bottom.
