Troubleshooting / Sound driver issue - Windows 10?

« on: 2015-08-03 18:27:19 »

Hi folks,

I've been happily playing the game with a bunch of mods via modpath and Aali's driver v.07.11b. Yesterday I changed my OS from Windows 8 to Windows 10, and since then the game fails to launch. The app log doesn't get past the "Initializing sound..."  so I sense it may be an issue with the sound drivers. However, I've not been able to fix that issue (it may be simple, but I've been running around in circles for some time now).
I tested the sound output in ff7Config.exe, tested my sound devices... nothing. Un-install, re-install, same problem.
Any ideas? Thanks.

Team Avalanche / I guess that's it, guys

« on: 2015-06-22 17:57:21 »

Hi folks,

I just wanted to "confirm" that, as far as I'm concerned, the announcement of the FF7 remake pretty much cans the Team Avalanche project. Personally, I see very little point in continuing this endeavor. I'm not motivated to strive for a graphical overhaul with my very limited means (in hardware, software, talent, and time) as Square can deploy a team of very talented people for that, with all the resources to go with it. It's in their hands now, all we can do is hope for the best.
As for me, well it was a fun ride    I certainly learned a ton of things in the process, so I'd never consider the huge amount of time I've spent on this as a waste. Maybe I should get started on a new project of my own then.
Thanks to all the people who provided support and feedback in all this time 
Cheers,

- Mayo

PS Doesn't mean that I'll be leaving qhimm forums though

Team Avalanche / [WIP] Team Avalanche looking for 2D artists

« on: 2014-07-20 16:18:55 »

Hi folks,

I'm opening this thread in order to find some help for the Team Avalanche project - I'm essentially pasting this thread, but I would like to reach more people within the qhimm forums. I would appreciate if this thread is not re-posted elsewhere - previous attempts at getting help outside this forum have gotten little but unwanted attention (aka troll party).

Back to the topic: I would like this thread to be more specifically dedicated to what I would call “texture jobs”.
On the one hand, it is my understanding that there are many people out there who are familiar, if not somewhat proficient, with Photoshop and 2D design, probably more than people handling 3D modelling. On the other hand, there are many aspects of texturing used in 3D modelling which could use much help from 2D artists.
In order to create realistic, believable urban environments, 3D modelling artists often need to populate a scene with man-made objects, and many of these objects bear labels or covers with an elaborate design. Here is a short list of items where the texture would require a small job of its own: books, soda cans, posters, magazines, food packaging, paintings, spray can, vehicle dashboard, etc.
Of course, a 3D modelling artist could spend the time for designing these textures. However, given how understaffed we are in the 3D modelling area, I do not think it is the best use of time and resources, especially if there are available 2D artists who could lend a hand. In that respect, any support we could get would be very much appreciated.
Below is a list of textures which need to be done, the list will be updated as jobs are completed and new tasks will have to be carried out. Other 3D modelling artists are welcome to post job requests in this thread. Detailed descriptions for each job can be discussed in the thread, or in this thread.
Thanks!

Team Avalanche / Sharing resources

« on: 2014-02-26 01:33:24 »

I'm starting this thread as a way to open discussions and suggestions about pooling our resources together. I believe we could get more work done and faster if we would use some re-usable assets (objects and textures). There may be some technical difficulties (we are not all on the same modelling softwares, there may be scaling issues, etc.) but it wouldn't hurt to try. Of course, one strength of Final Fantasy VII as a game is about the unique feel of each scene and the very little amount of reused assets. However, a non-negligible amount of objects and textures were reused in the original game. Additionally, it makes sense that, in a coherent world, you could find the same manufactured object several times at different locations.
Thus, I would like to move on several fronts:
- Examining the original scenes and figuring out what objects are shared across various scenes (for example, I noticed that a chair modelled by anaho for a Mideel scene was also found at the Honey Bee In).
- Sharing 3d objects on the file repository for items which are likely to be reused. Troubleshooting might be needed though. For starters, I uploaded 3 simple .blend files on the WIP repo (3D Modelling resources folder), and the corresponding .fbx and .3ds I could export from my blender file. It may or may not work, I'd appreciate some help in verifying this. The objects I uploaded were done during my sewer scene: one empty beer bottle (amber glass), one empty Shin-Ra Cola bottle, and one can of bug spray.
- Sharing textures. There are two purposes: the first is to provide a "bank" of textures, especially some that would be home-made (for instance, my bug spray label). The other would be to facilitate object retexturing, when passed from a given 3d modelling software to the next. Materials may not be transferable between blender and 3ds, but if the object is already UV unwrapped and there are textures mapped accordingly, it shouldn't be much of a problem to recreate them. Again, for starters, I uploaded the Shin-Ra Cola label and the bug spray label on the repo.
- Node setups for materials (at least in Blender, I don't know how materials are set up in other software). I think it would be useful (especially for beginners) to get some sort of Materials cookbook (what shaders and masks to use for metal, plastic, wood, cloth, etc). We could share these directly in this thread.
That's all I can think of for now, you're welcome to provide some input.

Team Avalanche / [REL] Team Avalanche bite-size release: HD Sewer field scenes

« on: 2013-11-09 00:30:08 »

As part of Team Avalanche's project, I have the pleasure of releasing 2 HD field scenes I've been working on in the past months. They are the sewer scenes between Don Corneo's mansion and the Train Graveyard. Below is the download link:

http://www.mediafire.com/download/y2l2pe3t827e5yy/Sewer_fields.7z

The folders /colne_b1/ and /colne_b3/ simply need to be placed in need /mods/<modpath>/field/.
Here are HD previews of these scenes:

Team Avalanche / [HD Remake] Midgar sewers

« on: 2013-05-13 04:54:07 »

Hi folks,

I've started to work on one scene of the Midgar sewers (colne_be3). One of the big changes for me when it comes to make that scene is that I've decided to switch to Blender's "new" rendering engine called Cycles, after the recommendations from anaho. Cycles has many cool features, most of all to make realistic rendering of the light interactions with objects (indirect lighting and such), which would also make my stuff more consistent with the works made by people who use 3ds, for instance. The downside of it (for the moment) is that materials and texturing are quite different from doing it with Blender internal rendering, so I have to relearn how to texture. For that matter, apologies to anaho about some past mis-communication when we were talking about texturing, as I was unaware about how you do it in Cycles back then.
Also, when you have a crappy computer, it's difficult to make tests with "complicated" lighting because it takes hours to make a "somewhat noise-free" image. Anyways, this is what I have at the moment:

This render has been resized to 50% before I uploaded the picture. Rendering this took about 5:30 h (which gives you an idea of how crappy the computer is), I had only 100 samples. As far as texturing goes, I'm pretty happy with what I've done so far with the bricks, the red tiles and the concrete parts (though I don't understand why I have this small patch of very clear and shiny tiles- I'll have to correct that). The metal ducts may need some revisions, while the concrete sewer pipes have been textured very hastily (I'll add some muck, moss and stuff later).
So... that's it for the moment. And as a side note, I hope things to improve a lot in the next few weeks because I've just ordered my new desktop (i7 core, 16 Gb ram)  MWAHAHA

Team Avalanche / Tiny Bronco

« on: 2013-04-21 23:08:19 »

Hey folks,

I started a bit of work on a particular model, but I need to pause for a moment before I can do some progress on it. This is where I'm at:



I am trying to model it from several reference pictures, but things get difficult because there's never a perfect match between the respective camera position/target/focal length of the various pictures I'm working on. Since I would like to have good accuracy on that model, I would have the following request:
Could anyone extract the 3d model of the Tiny Bronco and make a Blender file for me (again, I can't do it myself because I only have the PS discs)? There should be a battle model which is involved in the boss fight vs. Palmer. If anyone could do that and upload it on the repo that'd be great.
Thanks!

Team Avalanche / [HD Remake] WIP Sector 5 slums

« on: 2012-10-22 07:00:05 »

Hi everyone,

With Ulpian having made a thread for the remake of sector 6, I'm going for Sector 5, given that's where I've made my first field screen, and that's where I'm going to make the next.
Anyway, I wanted to post about my latest progress, even though Ulpian's work makes me feel very humble 



It's only the beginning of a very long process. Thankfully, playing around with lattices in Blender allows for getting variations of the flower position fairly easily. I'm aware the pic can be improved (petal textures, stigma and stamen to be resized, etc.) though I'll end up with a whole population of these.
Some random facts I learned while making this flower:
- the flower is essentially based on lilium longiflorum, a variety of lilies originating from Japan. It's also called Easter lily. I've read this flower was a symbol of purity and resurrection.
- oddly enough (basing my source on Advent Children), even though the flower bud is a lily, the stalk and the leaves are not. Real lily leaves grow in successive whorls, and have straight parallel veins, while the flower in AC are crenate, growing in an alternate fashion.
- there's a whole market dedicated to moulds of lily petal veins, which are meant for shaping sugar crusts for pastries 

Let me know if you have some advice, even if it seems very early on.

Team Avalanche / 3D modelling of field scene screens - Tasklist

« on: 2012-09-26 03:41:49 »

It would seem like a good idea to set up a list of the field screens with status updates about 3D modelling. The main reason behind it is about coordinating our modelling efforts, so that one given job is not undertaken by several people - since we have manpower shortage. In addition, the list can be viewed as a job board of sorts for 3D modellers. For other people, it would keep an update on the progress status of each scene.

I've revised the list to include all the field screens of the game - there are between 600 to 700 fields. Please consult the File Reconstruction Sheet if you wish to see the original images of eacdh field scene.

Due to formatting problems on the forum, I had to subdivide the list into 2. The first part: Field screens A to L (included)

Team Avalanche / Noob willing to help

« on: 2012-08-08 02:07:52 »

Good people of Team Avalanche, I salute you!

I personally always have been interested in the concepts of remaking or overhauling FF7, and the works of your team is really stunning. All the new 3D models I have seen in these pages are amazing! So, I'd like to try to contribute within my limited abilities - I'm quite a noob when it comes to 3D modelling, I mostly had fun with stuff like Terragen in the past (anyone interested in rendering empty outdoor fields?). I thought I could do a couple of things with free Sketchup because it's rather intuitive (I'm not cut to use stuff like Blender), even though I'm working at the pace of a snail under prozac.
So, here's hoping I could be of some use, and to begin with, I've started the modelling of this field screen.



I hope it's at least recognizable!
