FF7 Tools / Re: FF7 File Reconstruction Project!!

« on: 2010-05-04 17:27:28 »

Does anyone know where the weapon files are stored at in both PS1 and PC version?? ^^"

for the pc version the weapons (if you are referring to the weapons of each char not the monsters) are stored at battle.lgp, just next to each character files, near the end. If you open the sheet and search buster sword or any weapon it will take you where the weapons are. Sorry I can't give you details about the psx version, I haven't worked on it ^^'

« on: 2010-05-04 09:50:08 »

I've done a little work on it.  Feel free to finish

Code: [Select]

AAA - ?Underwater Dome Bubble?
ABA - Buggy
AIB - Junon Cannon
AJA - Grey Chocobo
ATA - Cid
BBE - Cloud
BKD - Fort Condor Condor
BLE - Ancient's Key
BNA - Diamond Weapon
BUD - Emerald Weapon
CEC - Sunken Gelnika
CFC - Gold Saucer
CGD - Highwind
CID - Highwind, Turbo
CMB - Midgar Cannon
CNB - Ancient Forest Entrance
COC - Rocket Town Rocket
CPC - Rocket Town Supports
CQC - Ruby Weapon
DDD - Grey Submarine
DGA - Red Submarine
DIC - ?Stonehenge?
DJC - ?Red and White striped pole?
DKC - Ancient's Key
DLB - Tifa
DVA - Tiny Bronco
DYB - Ultima Weapon
EJE - Underwater Facility
EKE - ShinRa Cargo Boat

AAA is the barrier at north crater, DJC is the pole you use to localize yourself during the glacier event and the stonehenge... well i think its some model from the underwater but im not sure about it. Every model is documented in the sheet, textures are another story 
If you happen to find out some of the non documented ones please do tell us ^^

Can I ask something?? Is someone working on the world_us.lgp to have these list?? I'm trying to change the models of the world map and it would be much easier if I know which model is which. If there is none its okay just wanna ask.

At the moment we are working heavily on battle.lgp so until we are done with it no one is working on world afaik. battle.lgp is a huge one so dont expect us to finish it sometime soon XD. World is a tough one since there are loads of textures, some of them are documented but im aware that there are some holes to be filled. The majority of the models are identified so maybe that is useful to you, we will try to complete it someday.

Releases / Millenia's custom models

« on: 2010-04-30 14:45:07 »

Clouds texture files are rtac and rtad. Originally rtac is used for the eye(s) and belt and rtad for the mouth. Apz uses rtac for the whole cloud model texture and Millenia uses rtad for all the swords textures. Thats why both can be used at the same time without overwriting textures. Maybe Millenia forgot to add clouds mouth texture in rtad aswell.

Biturn doesnt recognize the files as texture/models... the models show fine in kimera though but maybe the texture file needs to be reconverted or something.

Slight update:
Added an appendix at the end of the battle.lgp sheet showing wich enemies models are reused by recoloring them through the game. I took the first model as the 'original' and added a 'clone' tag to the rest referencing to the original for easy searching. Hopefully this ends up useful for the modelers

Releases / Re: [ALPHA TEST 2] Spanish FF7.exe 1.03 project.

« on: 2010-04-01 18:21:41 »

Por lo general los nombres de los archivos dentro de los lgps no cambian con el idioma pero unos pocos si lo hacen. Suelen empezar por la letra s de spanish, en ingles serian con e, si echais un vistazo a la sheet de file reconstruction project podeis comparar cuales son los que cambian puesto que ahi estan los de la version inglesa. Creo que puse 'different filename depending on language' en las que eran diferentes asi es mas fácil de encontrar, aunque no se si lo hice en todos. Siento no poder ser de más ayuda ya que ahora mismo no puedo acceder a mis archivos de ff7

Completely Unrelated / Re: haha

Just to add, Spanish and Italian seem to use Moguri.  So much for canon, unless we are arguing English canon is the correct one when the Japanese, Italian and Spanish say it isn't...

The Spanish version actually uses Mog and Moguri, I think this is because the word Moguri feels more natural and easier for us to pronounce than Moogle. If there was an attemp to make the words more natural for the localization, Moogle would have sounded quite foreign.

Here you go some help:
(I'm posting the files that are different in the installation folder. If you want the discs ones aswell say so but i think all the different ones are contained within the installation folder)

/battle
 seffect1.tex
 seffect2.tex
 seffect3.tex

/cd
 cr_sp.lgp
 disc_sp.lgp

/field
 Sflevel.lgp

/menu

/minigame
 high-sp.lgp
 scondor.lgp
 SCHOCOBO.lgp
 snowboard-sp.lgp
 ssub.lgp

/wm
 world_sp.lgp

As you can see they were a bit unconsistent with the nomenclature, some having s at the start, others -sp at the end etc...

FF7 Tools / Re: FF7 File Reconstruction Project!! Update.

« on: 2010-03-10 16:13:36 »

as some of you may be aware, there are several localized versions of ff7 , and there are naturally a few different files between languages. now we have English and Spanish versions of this data but are missing the rest any one another language version is asked to donate some of there files for a complete sheet.

some examples of these files are (first few are easy ones)
ff7 pc manual.rtf,ff7 readme.txt,sfman for awe32,64 readme.txt,textures from menu.lgp
some textures in just about all the minigames and quite a few other lgp's (ones w/ letters , etc...).,maybe some models.

members who have a German,Japanese, or other language who are would like to donate.
ill be back w/ another update when progress warrents on.  


r

The files that actually change are the textures that have any text drawn on them, As soon as I have all of the later sorted I'll add here a list with their filenames so anyone who wants to contribute just have to search for those. if you want you can also send me the localized .lgp files and ill do the work for you.

EDIT: Here's the list of the files that are different due to localization:

Main folder:
FF7 PC Manual
FF7 ReadMe
SFMAN for AWE32,64 ReadMe

Inside LGPs (LGPs have different names aswell, Im posting the spanish version ones as an example but depending on the language they will change, the files inside them dont change their names though):

« on: 2009-11-27 11:45:11 »

Thanks for the file.  1 Question. Can't you really equip items, materia and edit limit after the cloud poisoned by make event in meedil? Is that really part of the game? 

No, its not part of the game. As someone stated in another post where you asked, it seems that it is a problem with the savegame so you shouldnt have problems playing with this ones. Still, if you want your save, you could try doing a fresh reinstall without mods and try it out.

Magic.lgp is updated with the folder layout, thanks to sl1982 for pointing that out.
If someone knows what some strange files do please fill them for example chocobo.wat, also why does magic.lgp have files outside the folders? and why the folders path point to battle.lgp folder?

« on: 2009-09-10 19:49:33 »

About patching non-English versions of the game...

If the files are the same and only have different names, could one patch them by changing their names to what they are in the English version, applying the patch, and then changing the names back to what they are in the French/German/Spanish/whatever game? Or is it not that easy?

It should be, but i dont know if the textures themselves are different to account for different characters. Would be worth a try though

If there is no text involved in the texture then the filename is the same, if not, then the filename changes, usually adding a letter at the beggining like sflevel for flevel in the spanish version. If the file already had a language tag like _us then it should be _sp again for the spanish version.

Troubleshooting / Custom graphics driver for FF7/FF8 [v.1-.7.6]

« on: 2009-09-03 15:50:34 »

I encountered a bug but I don't know if it's because of the driver or it's a known glitch so please ignore the post if it's one of those.
When playing at the northern crater the shadows of the characters in battle started to act strange (they grow bigger then move around the screen and things like that, like poltergeist shadows), the only thing i can remember is that they started to act strange just after the dragon zombie casted pandoras box and that glitch was carried to the other battles aswell. I will put a pic/app.log when i get back home.
PD I was using vincent/cait sith/cloud and only vincent's shadow was not acting strange, cait's and cloud's were.

EDIT: I can confirm that glitch happens when the dragon zombie casts pandoras box, also the texture of shadowflare sometimes does strange things and the save points 'glow' dissapear.






Whops the app.log is too long to post, i was playing for quite a long time..

Troubleshooting / The APZ Cloud Project!!!!

« on: 2009-09-02 20:13:28 »

The game uses 2 different files* for the battle model cloud, one of the two is used only at the last battle of the game, that model is slightly more detailed than the 'regular' one. Apz model is the same in both files but you still have the 2 separately because if you don't replace both, the game will use the other cloud model instead in the last battle.
In short, Apz model is the same, be it last battle or 'regular'.

*I say files when it should be a 'group' of files
