1.6 million results.  "Are we too late" also works, but there's nothing wrong with former.

Just because there are 1.6 million results for "are we in time" doesn't mean that it's proper grammar. It should be "Are we on time?" or as mentioned before, "Are we too late?"

No.  DLPB is correct in this... using "on" represents "Our coworkers are expecting us to attend some really dull meeting at a specified time and location.  Did we arrive at the appointed hour?"  However, using "in" represents "We're madly rushing to hopefully arrive prior to some event that will probably result in Bad Things(tm) if we're late.  Did we beat the clock?"

It's perfect grammar. Also, this is script - so it doesn't even have to be.  It's how people talk. On time is a completely different meaning - as in "on time for a meeting".  You signed up to say that?

I also realized what was causing the frame rate issues I was having.  Aero.  So, Ive added a check to disable Aero on game start and reenable on finish.  That - along with also giving ff7 "above normal" priority.

Should I make the former optional?

Sounds like a perfectly reasonable default for a game. I don't think an option is really necessary

It's not a reasonable default, and some people might not like having aero toggling on and off just because they're playing a game.  A well-behaved application shouldn't need to be given special treatment just to resolve screen glitching.  However, given that we're dealing with something that was written over 20 years ago, and work-arounds are already the order of the day, we may not have much of a choice in the matter, at least for a little while  8)

I've added an option.  It only applies to Vista and Win 7 anyway.

Nah to Twitter - although may open one.


I'd definitely consider it, or potentially just deciding on a hashtag to use, just so all the promotion/feedback is directed in one place.

As for the "in time", cheers for clearing that up, I'm just glad it's intentional.

When R07 is released, that will be the finalized localization and it will have all proof check fixes + a final walk through from me.  So, anything i pick up that's weird will be changed.  In that case, I don't think there's a problem but I'll scrutinize it when I get there.

Grand, I'd maybe suggest changing it from "Are we in time?" to "Did we make it in time?", but go with your gut, it's your mod after all.

I know some people level a lot of criticism and trolling at you but it's pretty clear to me that you've been quite open to suggestions and recommendations throughout the development of Reunion, so ignore the haters, you're doing great.

Any idea at this point if you want to create a "100% everything" walk through sort of deal? 

Just curious as to your present thoughts, I mean who knows you may even decide against making one at all later.

The walk through is a proof check of all the localization and to fix up the boxes.  I'll likely also be recording it to Youtube.

I'm currently creating an overview help video. Should be done in next few hours.

Can I please have a download to R05? I was very much looking forward to playing the game retranslated today and I don't see the point of completely removing the mod from the internet until the new one is out. Why not just keep 5 there until 6 is out?

I think he just wants us to have the best version he can make -- since it's imminent, could be any time, so hang tight!

The status has been "very soon" for months now and it was supposed to be released on October 1st, "hanging tight" is not reliable at all. There's no good reason to restrict the whole project from the entire internet just because there's an improvement in sight. All I ask for is a download link. People have complained about him doing this as far back as 2015, this is a problem that shouldn't exist.

You're right about one thing: this is a problem that doesn't exist cause right below this thread there's another one with the download links you want.

I don't know what you mean by "below the thread" since I don't really know how to navigate old forum sights so could you be more specific or link me to said thread? Thanks in advance.

The forum sections are right above the posts of this page. All you need to do is go back to FF7 Other Mod Releases

It's simple, people.  Just ignore it and certainly don't quote it.

Brief overview.

I didn't do a great job, I know.  But what can you do?  :o ;D

Suggest watching in high res or you won't be able to read text.  1080p 60fps is there.

does this mean we can finally have custom textures for the steam re-release of ff7?

Yes, it should work fine.  The downside is that achievements and everything else the steam version adds is removed - since it no longer loads steam dlls.

Nothing stopping people from just disabling reunion whenever they want to use that.

Watched your video (thanks for doing it).
Seem like a great way of doing modding.
Is there any way to tell witch files to use instead of witch mod folder ?, for exemple if a single file is needed for several mod but not for others it can be usefull to avoid copy of files.

If i can deal with it and the french re-translation it will be a great tool.

Realy waiting for it now ^^
