I'm guessing you mean Omega's Terra Break? If you use Defend beforehand/have someone in Defend when he reaches this attack then it should deal 0 damage just like the FF8 version of the same attack (3rd post down): http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/197343-final-fantasy-viii/47986998
Otherwise, Peerless from Gospel Sparks or Great Gospel Limit can do the trick. Note that only one person has to use Defend, not the whole party.

For the KOTR cave, his Mammon Machine attack gets used after he's been hit 40 times. He changes phase when 2 conditions are met a) he's completed an attack cycle, and b) 13 or more actions have been used against him. On the first phase change he'll summon the two bots. On the second he'll fly up into the air and become long range. On the third, Mammon Machine will be used and every attack after that will prompt its use. Counter-attacks do not count toward the tally (as far as I know).

I forgot about the defend option entirely lol, the gospel spark is good for the whole battle or just that one use when he uses terra break? How do I get around mammon machine? He's one boss that I'm stuck on. Sorry if I'm pestering for a answer I'm just clueless.

I'll get a scene patch up, was supposed to do it earlier but it slipped my mind.

The docs are slightly behind as well; Cid's thing was changed slightly and now activates from the backyard of his house (where the Tiny Bronco is), he needs to be in the party/party leader to follow the questline all the way.

Edit: But before that, I need to check if the key item was transferred across from the old one. I don't remember doing this so it might need to be added again.

Edit2: Got the patches made and uploading; I'll do a 7H IRO update as well.

Edit3: Scene + Flevel patches updated, and the IRO too:
-) Disk 3 asked for when Dark Cave finished (talk to lost & found NPC will do this when talked to as well)
-) Key Item Micro-Engine now available from Cid's Lv.4 Limit sidequest (lost & found NPC will add this if sidequest is finished)
-) Cid's option 1 on Rank=Up now gives correct number of Luck sources
-) Platinum Match animation problem fixed

For IRO users, all fixes since the last IRO have been implemented.

Just a heads-up for everyone though, I'm currently working through Arrange Mode so if you notice any problems or erratic behaviour with bosses/scripts that were previously working then let me know.

 it.

The flevel shows Jan 12 on op, did you update it and not change the date?
Just updated scene and finished the level 4 limit for cid didn't get micro engine, and I reset his side quest. Will I have to redo it for the lost and found to get the item after your fix? Or do I have to redo it since I reset

edit - just saw the link says jan 14 but the OP does not, my bad was on mobile couldnt see the link.

Question, I have the steam version of this and everything works great and this mod has had my addicted to ff7 this past week!
Im on disc 3 and I got to part where tifa had to be leader and play the piano and you get a letter to go to the nibel reactor and when I go zangan is there like hes supposed to be but when the fight begins it just freezes once it passes the black screen to transition into the fight.

I have the NT 1.4 april build and patches from the 29th
I applied also patch from january 12 and still same thing happened

Also anyone know a way to get the pirate tag under my name removed? That was from years ago when I was broke and dumb and pirated the ultima version.


Edit -

Just installed the new version on the front page MK II and it works now.

Having trouble with zack, I can't beat him. I'm 82, even added 3 hp pluses and he still destroys me. Starts the fight off with a combo that without a hp plus kills me, he's so  OP.
I've seen a video from a year ago of the fight and mine doesn't begin by zacking saying its been a while, he's laying dead and cloud crawls to him. In the video hes using clouds ult weapon but when I do the fight zack has the buster sword. The combo he uses in the video does around 500 or so damage in the video without wall, I have a protect ring on which auto cast wall and zacks combo with a barrier hits around 700-900 or 1.5-2k with a crit, his comet without wall does about 5k damage with wall it does half of it, his meterorain destroys me without wall. He starts it with that combo, then I get a turn, then he cast laser then I get a turn and he cast comet. With wall or the hp pluses I don't survive with them I have around 9800 HP without it I have about 4000
And Im only holding on cause of the 3 hp pluses. Not sure if this is normal or maybe I just suck lol


I installed the new version over the older version of NT so Im gonna try to reinstall ff7 and just the new version see if that fixes it.

edit-

Still the same but ended up winning, changed my armor and finally won. Didn't get omnislash had to use the lost and found NPC.

third edit - platinum fight in extra bttles in battle square I get stuck at waiting after choosing my attacks it just stayed at waiting while no one did nothing for a minute.
Didn't get omnislash, maybe its because I never went back down the mansion so the OG cut scene never played?

Troubleshooting / Re: FF7 Lagging only in battle 9 FPS

Option 2 seemed to help for a bit, but then it dropped back down to 9 fps.
I tried option 1, it stayed at 15 fps for a few seconds then dropped down to 9 fps like it always done.

Seems its a compatbility issue with my drivers and graphic cards, it also does this same thing on the steam version using the same mods and ultima edition.
(Had steam version but didn't think you could mod it and my uncle has the ultima edition.)
So maybe its a certain mod? I ran the game with no mods to test this 2 days ago and I had no lag in battle I believe.

^^
Just tried and still nothing, I really want to fix this issue. 9 fps isn't very enjoyable at all, what other version of the ff7 port can be modded with bootlegger and tifa's package? Maybe its a compatibility issue with this port and my pc?
Its a certain mod I believe, I ran the game earlier without mods and there was no battle lag. Now if only I could single out the mod.

In my control panel its forced to use my nvidia card, I also think its a compatability issue. I'm hoping there's a fix for this, I really want to play I mean I would play with 9 fps but I won't really enjoy as much as I should I would be more annoyed.

@EQ2Alyza I believe so, here is the log.

« on: 2014-07-28 19:47:03 »

Hey everyone, I have the original ff7 game for pc. I'm using tifas bootleg package, I used the full preset in bootleg and changed the gameplay thing to lost wings overhaul I believe its called. The game runs fine, always running at 30 fps but when I'm in battles instead of running at 15 fps the battles run between 8 and 9 fps everytime.
I have a sager np7358 so running games isn't a problem here some of the specs
4th Generation Intel® Haswell Core™ i7-4710MQ (2.5GHz - 3.5GHz, 6MB Intel® Smart Cache)
 NVIDIA® GeForce GTX 860M GDDR5 (2.0GB) w/ Optimus Technology
also a intel HD 4400 for task don't require highdemand for example gaming.
 8GB DDR3 1600MH
I'm on windows 7 ultimate.
