Download: FF8Launcher 1.4

FF8Launcher (formerly known as "Plug-in Manager") is a simple application which manages the use of various add-ons created by myself and the Final Fantasy VIII community.

Installation:


* 1. Extract FF8Launcher.exe and the Add-on folder to your Final Fantasy VIII directory (e.g. C:\Program Files\Square Soft, Inc\Final Fantasy VIII).
* 2. Extract msvcr100.dll to your system32 directory (e.g. C:\WINDOWS\system32) or your Final Fantasy VIII directory.Interface:


* Start Game - Starts FF8.exe with the selected add-on(s).
* Re\De\Select All - Re\De\Selects all items in the list.Using magixts' DirectX 6 hook is possible with some common sense (though I would recommend Aali's graphics driver).

Instructions:


* 1. Place dx_hook.dll and config.cfg in the Add-on directory.
* 2. Change the settings in config.cfg with Notepad.Note: The 8-bit Paletted Textures can be changed from 0 to 1 (off/on) and the Custom Resolutions can be changed from 0 to 20 (640x480 to 2560x1920).

List of Add-ons:


* Hard BETA - Todo: Description.Note: The Hard add-on will decrease the player's melee damage by a factor of 1.5, increase the level of enemies by a factor of 1.1, and increase the melee damage of enemies by a factor of 1.1; this does not effect magic damage. PLEASE GIVE ME FEEDBACK AND REPORT ANY ERRORS!

For those of you that did not understand how to utilize the information in my previous thread, I have made a simple program to do it for you.

Multipatcher must be in the same directory as FF8.exe!

Features:

- Change the damage cap to 65,535.
- Change the HP cap to 32,767.

To run the application you must open cmd.exe, navigate to your Final Fantasy VIII directory, and run the program with the appropriate arguments.

Arguments:

-all - Apply all the patches at once.
-damage - Apply only the damage patch.
-hp - Apply only the hp patch.

Example:

C:\Documents and Settings\User>cd "C:\Program Files\Square Soft, Inc\Final Fantasy VIII"
C:\Program Files\Square Soft, Inc\Final Fantasy VIII>multipatcher -all

I strongly suggest making a copy of your original FF8.exe before applying these changes.

I imagine a strength capped Squall could unleash a potent frenzy with Lionheart.  :evil:
