Support / Re: [FF9PC] Field Background replacement (patch?)

I just tried your ffix_test.exe. All it did was open the folder where Steam is actually installed.

Okay I got it working:



I reinstalled your new patch and was getting the same errors, minus the messed up backgrounds. Then I tried the other patch you linked, that didn't work right away. I moved the original launcher out, moved in the new one you provided and renamed it. Steam once again reopened your launcher, but when I got in game it was working.

Thanks for looking into it, and most importantly thanks for the hard work on this great mod. I've been waiting very patiently since this pc version came out for a field replacement mod.

Fresh install meaning I just installed the game. I tried renaming your launcher and steam still asked permission, then re-opened your launcher. When I got in game it looked like this:

I'm still getting the old scenes after installing. On a fresh install of FF9 to FF9_Launcher.exe After I use your launcher steam asks me if I want to continue, then opens the original launcher. Is that normal?

Which shader are you using? And are you using reshade framework? These look outstanding.

Don't worry about that. Since this port is not being done by any of the main development teams at Square, I don't think they're gonna put that much effort and call Uematsu for soundtrack re-arrangement.
Anyway I was not that pissed by the remastered FFX HD OST, some tracks seemed somehow better to me while others just had a different taste (not better nor worse).

If Uematsu isn't coming back for FFVIIR, then I highly doubt he'd be back for a FFIX port. Sucks, but true. Hopefully they just leave the music as is. Doesn't need to be messed with imo.

IMO this looks quite a bit better than the original. I fired up epsxe last night with opengl2 shaders and sweetfx and although it looks great, i'm excited for this version to come out. Here's a couple screens of my epsxe set up.

Apart from the end boss... who literally comes out of nowhere like FF8's.

That's probably my ONLY gripe with this game. Everything else is amazing imo. It's my favorite.

I actually never finished this game. Last I remember was being defeated in rainy Burmecia and ending disc 1. This ought to be a fun one to pick up

The story just gets more fun from there. People start to discover who they actually are. I'm so excited for this!

It's weird to see Cloud in a Nintendo game. Wasn't VI the last numbered story on Nintendo? That being said, well done Nintendo. I think they've portrayed him well.

Try this. A simple program that tells the game where the movies are. And it's really easy to use new updated movies with this.

That's awesome man! So I have a makeshift PC running right now. AMD A6-3650 2.7 CPU. Gigabyte HD 7850 2gb, Corsair Vengeance 8gb Memory, 120gb Corsair SSD. With this setup I can run Skyrim at ultra settings 1080p @55 FPS! I tried to run Twilight Princess with Dolphin, but the CPU is too weak. But the main thing is Wildstar runs great and very smooth! So i'm going to wait a couple months and then upgrade to the I5 4670k.
