Never used this mod before but I've seen it mentioned elsewhere that with this mod you're able to remove Cloud from the party, and that you can walk around as Tifa and Cid. Few questions regarding that:

1. Does that mean one of Cloud/Tifa/Cid are always required to be in the party, or are you also able to have others like Aeris, Red XIII, Barret, etc. lead the party? Also regardless, how does it determine who's on the field? Is it whoever's in a specific slot or is there character priority or something?

2. At what point in the game are you allowed to remove Cloud from the party?

3. Does the answers to the above questions apply to both 1.5 and 2.0 or just one or the other? (I intend to play both as I've heard there's many differences between them)

You can only remove Cloud from the party during Disc 3, after you reached the bottom of the Northern Crater. Basically, it can only be done after all the plot-related cutscenes have been played. The feature mainly allows you to be more versatile with your team for the Optional Bosses the mod added to Disc 3. (Cloud is still the mandatory party leader for the final boss.) The feature will be available in the Highwind if I recall well. There's a guy who'll ask you who you want to use as your party leader, so it doesn't depend on a specific slot.

Only Cid or Tifa can be made party leaders. I think it's related to the fact they're the only ones besides Cloud with models for some minigames such as the snowboard.

I never finished 1.5, so I can't tell if the feature is already in that mod.

Hello there! I hope this is the right place to be, I looked around and was brought here eventually. I'm playing New Threat, and I just got to the North Crater and fought Jenova Death, and now I can't continue. I looked up somebody playing this mod because I thought maybe the way to advance was a new way I wasn't thinking of, and all they did was talk to Tifa, and the game continued. HOWEVER, Tifa just isn't on my screen. Her dialogue during the "scene" showed up, but not her. I thought maybe she was just invisible so I clicked around her a lot, but nothing. What should I do?

So, lets say I wanted to play NT 2.0 with the small story tweaks (like saving aerith) and new bosses and such, but didnt want the materia moved around or the changes to the combat system itself, which version would I download?  Vanilla Combat I assume?

It's been over a day and I'm wondering if I should try messing with some of the files? I'm just worried I'll break something and won't be able to figure out how to undo it

you can try mess with other mods, looks like field + model mods used in combination with new threat. just play about within 7th heaven mod manager alternatively check for full list of mods that the person has installed ... then copy them inclusive of mod load order.. tbh better off finding what you like yourself :)

After replaying 1.5 I like how the summons were balanced in that game as good stat boosters to the type of build you want compared to 2.0 where the extremely heavy hit to DEX made me not bother with any of them besides Hades for stat protection
Also I really don't get why Ultima and Contain I think were locked so late to the final dungeon in 2.0. By time I got them I had no reason to really use them since almost everything was defeated
