My cache folder in ff7 folder is empty.. so of course no effect deleting it. Materia's textures always return back to originals installed with bootleg

FF7/mods/bootleg/cache/menu

any time you make changes to the mods folder you will need to clear this cache.

there is also a cache is the main ff7 directory, not entirely sure what the difference is, most things are cached to the mods folder, but some things will go to the main cache.

There is another thing you should try also please, Manu>>>go to bootloader and uncheck compress textures, clear cache. Load the game up and open the menu system, go to materia menu, close game, recheck compress textures. Now you will have the other Materias or you can throw an egg at me. Same process to go back. I forgot about that step...

Or disable cache option in aalis config file until you are ok.

a. run through 700+ maps and making changes
b. run through entire game and make changes
c. get luksy to run through all maps and see if he is happy
d. maybe get SOMEONE else out there to look through and see if they are happy
e. Get covarr to proof chec

The sad thing is that is probably the easy part. XD

Thanks a lot to you for your answer but.. still don't work anyway !

Tried your method with unchecking compress textures, launch the game, open materia menu, close the game, copy the files to the bootleg/menu folder, check compress texture, launch the game. No changes at all.
Second thing, I never had a cache folder in the bootleg folder ! I just have the cache folder in the main ff7 folder, as you can see in this screenshot.

Luksy has discovered a problem with the original Japanese too...

Code: [Select]

------------------------------
The chocobo looked like it enjoyed the Greens.
------------------------------
{CHOICE}Tickle the soles of its feet
{CHOICE}Tickle its tummy
{CHOICE}Tickle its neck
{CHOICE}Tickle its belly button << belly button?? Chocobos are mammals?
{CHOICE}Tickle it behind its ears << ears??
{CHOICE}Tickle its armpits << wingpits?? :D

Someone obviously failed to note that this was a bird. I will take a liberty and change these to work with a bird. The notes above are from Luksy.

Quote

------------------------------
The chocobo put the Materia away. << and where exactly??

Haha, I have a good idea hahaha

English translation Fixed: Check
Next level: Fixing original japanese.

So let's see (I am sat here looking at Ostrich anatomy.. that's how crazy this game has made me) >

Code: [Select]

{CHOICE}Tickle its head
{CHOICE}Tickle its neck
{CHOICE}Tickle its belly
{CHOICE}Tickle its feet
{CHOICE}Tickle its tail
{CHOICE}Tickle its wings

Let's hope the Japanese fanboys don't find out that a Chocobo now likes having its tail tickled and not its ears... I have enough on my plate with the English fanboys hahaha

Template · « **Reply #1638 on:** 2013-06-17 19:07:33 »

Everyone knows chocobos love to be scratched behind their ears... of course they have ears... and very sensitive hearing at that. Some of my best friends are chocobos.

Soles of its feet is funnier than just feet... but I agree belly is funnier than tummy. I personally would have put behind its ears instead of head, though. Not important. Tail is classic. Really swimming in minutia here...

DLPB_ · « **Reply #1639 on:** 2013-06-17 19:20:25 »

The person who wrote this section was obviously under the impression that a chocobo was a mammal of some sort... it even sounds like it was written to apply to a human kind of being haha Soles of feet! Birds dont have ears like mammals, you can't "tickle behind them" in the same way.

Kaldarasha · « **Reply #1640 on:** 2013-06-17 19:31:29 »

Maybe they had planed to use little versions of Nanaki ...
Then the text would make sense, also his ominous children in the end FMV would make sense, too...

Template · « **Reply #1641 on:** 2013-06-17 20:57:20 »

Ostriches, and I think most other large flightless birds have distinctive "ears". You could indeed tickle one behind them if it weren't for the likeliness of it pecking you. But chocobos are nicer. If you piss one off though... not pretty.

just sayin'...

Kaldarasha.

Well, I am not happy with the Battle Interface as it is, so I am redesigning part of it to be more professional, using the ff9 template. It won't be THAT much different from before, but it will be an improvement. Sadly some of this has to be coded from scratch to make it happen. I am on it though! This is a work in progress view.

DLPB_ · « **Reply #1644 on:** 2013-06-18 01:00:01 »

I guess not many of you got the Lucky 7's? I just did and the names change places

Glad it happened now.

knightsoftheround · « **Reply #1645 on:** 2013-06-18 04:14:56 »

Researching ostriches for this? Dan, you're my kind of anal-retentive. I've done similarly crazy stuff for roleplays and fanfictions. XD I think the ears should stay though based on what Kaldarasha found.

I've never managed Lucky 7s in all the times I've played Final Fantasy VII, actually. XD Glad it happened to you so you could catch it!

Ver Greeneyes · « **Reply #1646 on:** 2013-06-19 09:51:16 »

Screech owls can also have prominent ear tufts:

DLPB_ · « **Reply #1647 on:** 2013-06-20 20:04:07 »

I am not sure Chocobo's do, but even then "behind the ears" is definitely mammal term.

Ver Greeneyes · « **Reply #1648 on:** 2013-06-20 22:08:07 »

Yeah. I was thinking more along the lines of 'tickle its ear tufts'.. but Chocobo models and concept art don't really show they have those

Salk · « **Reply #1649 on:** 2013-06-21 05:58:11 »

It seems I was under the wrong impression that a chocobo is an invented animal race and, as such, doesn't need to follow anatomical traits of any bipedal.
