These have been deprecated. See this thread and try not to drudge up year old topics (check the last post date). Thanks.

1) He is asking for support to my patch, I don't see anything wrong with that.  Are you a moderator?  Because your post is more off topic than his, so quit posting in my thread.

2) Deprecated?  Yes the new patches are soo much better, because they used my videos without asking permission and posted them without giving me credit until I called them out on it.  Sorry I gave the first custom movie patch for FF7 years ago.  Deprecated just seems like kinda an asshole thing to say to anyone who is providing patches to you for free.  I'm sure none of the creative people on this forum would appreciate such things said about their work.

@ TG_Sock
It has recently come to my attention that the opening fmv no longer works.  I had previously hosted my videos on FileFront, and they kept deleting my uploads.  I redid the video once using Vista and VirtualDub and uploaded it again.  This video does not work with FF7, so I was going to redo these videos and release new Hi-res ones which work with Aali's custom driver.  That is if there are less assholes on this forum such as titeguy3  :|

Thank you to everyone that has responded, I do appreciate it.  I just ask any further help be in a form of a PM, as I don't wish to derail the topic or have others post something that may break the rules of the forum.

I do have AC ripped from my DVD copy, I'm not sure if there is a pressing need to go beyond that resolution.  I'll see how it looks and judge it from there.  I was more concerned with finding a high quality ps3 tech demo video.  My source that I used years ago was 640x480 if I remember right.  That's a huge improvement from my original resolution, but it would be nice to have something better.

This is exactly the kind of questions I PM'd you about a while ago Tsetra.  As I've seen your expertise with Meteor.  :wink:

I've been slowly, not much free time, been working on releasing a new opening video.  I've dug into the opening scene, md1stin if memory serves me, and have modified the scene for a bit more flexibility.  There is a loop within the scene which checks when the desired frame is reached, and the rest of the scene can continue. (Avalanche jump from train, chat, etc.)  Changing this value I was able to add other movies without the worry of the other scripted events.  I then removed something that has annoyed me about the first scene for ages, the 3d guards in the transition from video to game.  Personal preference of course, I never liked it.  Modified the script so they appear once Avalanche jump from the train.  I just felt that myself and others were shackled by those guards into using the same ending of the opening movie for our videos.

Well I'll be redoing my videos with the higher res sources I used a few years ago.  If anyone would have links to higher quality vids of either the tech demo or the sephiroth vid, shoot me a PM.  My source vids are good quality, but I'd rather just do this once with a very high quality source.

Excited to see any other flexibility you can give us with your driver Aali, keep up the great work on that.

Well if you....

  • Are really digging Windows 7 RC
  • Have a PC you know you are going to torch Vista and upgrade to 7
  • Like saving money
  • Live in the US

You can preorder Win 7 Home Premium Upgrade for $50 (down from $120) or Professional Upgrade for $100 (down from $200).  The offer ends July 11th.  Apparently the upgrade editions will work with Windows XP and Vista.

I think I'll pull the trigger on this purchase, because my laptop came with Shitsta and Win7 is such an improvement in my opinion.  I'll probably go with the Professional edition because Home Premium lacks the WinXP mode.  The BitLocker feature appears to be the only tangible feature to upgrade from Pro to Ultimate.  Seeing as how Ultimate is not a part of this upgrade preorder deal and the Ultimate upgrade is gonna run $220... meh

Any thoughts?  Is BitLocker that important?  Or is it just more BS that Microsoft did with feature padding Vista Ultimate? I'm pretty sure TrueCrypt should suffice.

If all of this effort is going into scaling up the resolution, why not make a "master copy" at the highest resolution.  I'm sure it is unnecessary to go beyond 1600x1200, so do the retouching in hi-res and you can always scale it down for everyone's needs.

EDIT:
I also feel using the models made by the community to be a better idea.  Not only do they look much better than the rips, it takes away from the legality of using copyrighted models in a patch.

Russia's Gazprom and Nigeria's state-operated NNPC formed the company - pronounced "nye-gaz" - last week.

Shouldn't the people on the Nigerian side have seen red flags when the name was brought up?  I guess it's a simple mistake on the Russian's side, especially with their pronunciation of the word.  Did they seriously think nothing would come of this?  Your in Nigeria.  I wouldn't buy 'Hop Sing Ding Dong Rice Paddy Fields Miso Ramen' when I'm in Japan.  I would hope the Japanese noodle company would have more common sense than that.  Wow... you're in Nigeria.  I'd love to see more examples of PR blunders.  People intentionally doing stupid things, it makes my day.  :-D

Are we on to welcoming input, now, instead of spewing venomous, fabricated garbage (Otokoshi, at least) at anyone that doesn't agree with us?  :wink: I tend to consider you all more or less one mind, or at least, a bound group of delusional sociopaths relying on each other to continually rationalize your own behavior. No offense intended, such is often the case with antisocial behavior in these sorts of small communities.


All I ever asked was why people stepped into a thread that was obviously not intended for them to reply in.  You took it very personally.  I guess you would never answer my questions or justify your actions, so you would rather resort to flaming, or insinuate threats were made by myself or V, or that I gave you "venomous fabricated garbage."  I don't see it.

Quote from: MrAdults
So that said, I find it hard to justify continuing to contribute to these forums with actual substance, and will be relocating my future endeavers, and any additions to the Dissidia project (regarding format specifications and/or tool updates)

I fail to see how your endeavors of ripping off copyrighted material contributes to the community.  There are plenty of creative people on these forums that can appreciate creating this content themselves.  But go ahead, I'm sure you'll be an smash hit at the FacePunch forums for your ripoff ripper tool.  You'll just need a thicker skin to survive there apparently.  If you are leaving, just realize I never directly insulted you once.  That is more than I can say about you.  You failed to justify your actions in this thread you had no business in, and acted like a child when you were criticized for it.  These aren't threats or venomous fabricated garbage, it's the truth.

However you were able to come up with a username like MrAdults and act in this manner is a mystery to me... or is it?

Quote from: MrAdults
A post centered around telling me that the subject is none of my business, in a thread completely unrelated to yourself - while I don't generally agree with the notions you assert, it seems difficult to miss the gross hypocrisy, if you hold these beliefs.

I state this after the thread had run its course, yet you felt the need to convey your moral high horse as if it pertained to the topic, or if anyone cared.  So I don't make a "gross hypocrisy," how was this thread related to you again?

Quote from: MrAdults
which was in response to Seifer's attitude over something or other.

Glad you got all your facts straight before you posted your opinions in a topic where nobody had asked for them.

Quote from: MrAdults
Like I said, both sides are wrong, two wrongs don't make a right, and so forth - in the end the behavior in this thread is still not justified. And, yes, calling someone out in a thread like this is childish, especially in making a public display out of it. Perhaps not on the level of a 6 year old, but it's definitely something a 12-16 year old would do. Perhaps we should start a debate on when a person stops being considered a child, and how childish might apply in a metaphorical sense. Or perhaps there's no getting through to the aggressors in this thread, which is partly why Seifer is gone - but I trust the rest of us appreciate the truth of what's happened here, and I hope the mods/admins take a more aggressive stance on nipping these things in the bud in the future.

If you don't like the contents of the thread, nobody is holding a gun to your head, so don't read it.  What is it you would have the mods do?  It was completely unrelated and had nothing to do with you.  You keep talking about others taking actions on a forum where you have no say.  You can start your own forum if you feel all this free speech between two parties, neither of them you, is giving you sleepless nights.

So if you had no business in this topic, why not make that fascinating debate about childhood behavior in your own thread instead of derailing the topic for the two people it was intended for?  This thread's premise doesn't seem childish in the slightest.  Forming a witty response to a childish, violent threat is not only hilarious but is taking the high ground in my opinion.

Quote from: MrAdults
That's the end of the subject for me. Feel free to irrationally justify your behavior and make aggressive statements against me henceforth

What you have failed to do is justify any of your behavior in this thread.

  • Topic does not concern you, yet you enter the discussion anyway.
  • Mount your high horse and make statements of how all behavior on the internet is to be conducted.
  • Criticize the administering of a forum that hasn't broken any of its rules, only your own ideals.

I only entered this topic after Seifer Almasy had clearly left the forum and your ongoing off-topic posts of your ideals and "good internet behavior" became increasingly lengthy and ridiculous.

By not respond to and/or ignoring this post you are hereby agreeing that you do indeed eat all the dicks.... Furthermore, if you look closely at what MrAdults was saying and how it was being presented, you've become the victim of a very clever troll.

To be fair, the thread was titled "ATTN Seifer Almasy" for a reason.  Numerous times the user has stated acts of violence or wishing the demise of another forum member.  I guess this could have gone to a PM war, but putting those disturbing posts in a public forum, I don't blame the other for wanting to air out the dirty laundry.  If members don't like it, take a look again at the thread title.  If you want to pop a bag of popcorn and enjoy the fireworks, go at it.  Cutting into an argument with those that can speak for themselves, telling them to stop, stating your allegiance (or lack thereof), their feelings on the matter, or their own moral polarity on teh intern3ts is simply unwarranted.  You want to point out hypocrisy made by one, fine they did make the argument public.  If it's between two people let their discussion/argument run its course.  Don't have a moderator step into a topic posted in Completely Unrelated that has the attention for one member in its subject line.  What does that solve?  Who wants a censored forum?  If the mob had left the thread between the two, it may not have escalated as it did.  Seifer could have made a dozen more threats then left, but we'll never know, it could have ended better.

Quote from: MrAdults
If you click back to page 1, there, you'll notice he's initiating a charade toward Seifer with the mock goal to engage him in physical combat, not to mention all of the aggressive undertones sprinkled in the posts preceding and inside of this thread. I have not insulted his Bandito's maturity in any way, however - I have pointed out that there is a distinct lack of maturity in his behavior, at least as seen in this thread.

He was responding to the post previously made by Seifer Almasy.  I would say the duel was just a witty response to an empty threat.

Quote from: MrAdults
Should you find the nature of such a thread mature, you have a great deal of growth to accomplish. For that, I do not fault you, but others should not have to suffer because you, or anyone else, has not yet realized the true nature of social courtesy. Such a simple, fundamental axiom applies here: "Two wrongs don't make a right".

There's another good one: "Mind your own business."

Quote from: MrAdults
Disagreements will always be made, and conflicts will happen, but this thread, or anything like it, should never be the end result.

Please read the thread title again.

Instead of getting all hot and bothered, look at it this way.  With the numerous excellent games in the poll and the thousands of votes, FF7 still came in second.  That's not bad considering this poll means absolutely nothing.  This is just another meaningless "Top 7 Hottest Girls in Games" -esque stories gamefaqs, gamespot, or gamesradar runs all the time.  All the indisputable facts mentioned are not facts at all, or necessarily a good thing.  So FF7 was longer, what if I like short games?  Portal and Call of Duty 4 had very short campaigns, but I still enjoyed them greatly.  And if better graphics = better game, then we're all screwed.  I personally thought Crysis was a piece of shat, and just a glorified tech demo.  The story was boring and the suit added nothing to the gameplay that a console cheat could have.  The fact is people are not looking at this objectionably, and that's okay because you prefer one game to another.  All of your points are your opinions and you're entitled to them, and they should be the only ones that matter.  Not some game site trying to up it's hit count with some lame poll.

The current version only has the TM2.0 codec though, but I can add any codec supported by ffmpeg on request.

I'll bite  :-D  This would be much appreciated, when I did the videos prior, there were xvid versions as well.  The small amount of tweaking to get them to work with FF7 made big headaches for myself with constant tech support.  I had gotten a h.264 video to run in FF7, it wasn't pretty, but support for any of those codecs would be great.

Troubleshooting / Re: FFVII Movie problem
« on: 2009-03-30 12:43:54 »
It's a good start that you removed all codecs and started fresh.  I would disable the TruMotion codec provided by k-lite, then install the codec separately from here.  FYI if you are patching the game with The SaiNt's High Resolution Patch, you don't need to use the Chocobo patch because it is included.  Also double check your registry entry for the movie path.  Make sure you put a "\" at the very end of the directory path or the movies will not run.

Example:
C:\Final Fantasy 7\movies\

With your machine you should be able to play with the software rendering turned off and use the Nvidia option.  Just be sure both FF7.exe and FF7Config are updated to 1.02 found here.  Don't use the FF7 XP patch, it does more harm than good.

All I can say is this:

This isn't saying much, other than that you can use light source in Photoshop.  This just in, you can manipulate photos to look like anything with Photoshop.  Stop the presses!

Once again, I could care less if it is fake or not because it looks like shat anyways.  Just seeing what programmers on these very forums have done creating patches and tools to improve this game, and the fact ENB Series has a Dx8 to Dx9 Converter... just seems a little closed minded to think it is impossible.  If all it did was add a light source, then fine, the Dx5 could handle that and it still looks like crap.  I guess I just don't understand everyone jumping on Tsetra with "ZOMG itz sooo fake you can't prove it's realz!"  Then to prove that it is fake to... take the time to create a fake of your own...  It just seems silly to argue about (or should I say jump on Tsetra's opinion), especially when these counterpoints are this stupid.  Please don't listen to my "reasoning" and continue with the discussion.

Look carefully at cloud he has shadows but barret doesn't.

Barret is casting a shadow.  It is consistent with Cloud's going away from the camera.  The only section of the shadow you can see is below his right arm on the ground.  Follow the angle where the door meets the floor and you'll see what I'm talking about.  Whether it's real or not, it doesn't matter, because either scenario is possible but it looks like ass anyways.  It's certainly not worth arguing over.

Yes you just have to find the install location for the NPC PRP, copy the lgp files, and replace them with the ones in your install directory.  Then you'll be starting up FF7 like normal but with the updated NPCs and any of the patches associated with your .exe, like the Hi-Res and YAMP patches.

well since all the programs have thier makers names in the read me or the about section of the program and the fact that i never said i made any of them there shouldnt be a problem. its only there for an easy access to the files so people dont have to spend hours finding them. its just a quick pick up place.

I never said anything about plagiarizing anyone's work.  If you're posting anyone's work on your website, it's usually a common courtesy to ask their permission to do so.  Most of the time it is welcome because it's just another mirror for those to download.  Some authors prefer to have their work only downloaded from one place.  I'm sure places exist that have all files in a central location, but there is no support for those with a pirated version.

What are these "editers" and "walk troughs" your site claims it has?  Did you ask any of the developers here if you could host their patches on your site?  Seeing as it goes against everything people are doing here, I doubt it.  I guess nothing can be done about it, but it just shows good form and a respect to those that made the patches.  Of course if you have a pirated copy of the game you don't even respect those that made the game.  I guess your moral compass is all sorts of fuzzucked up.  Genius here promotes his website for support of the pirated version of the game.  I don't think I've ever seen anything that... "special."
