Hi, newbie here.
I'm here basically, because I want to make my FF7 look great.
i.e. no lego/chibi models, no blocky/pixelated backgrounds/videos when stretched, especially to HD resolutions, etc.
Basically just get rid of anything blocky, pixelated, or lego.
I don't really care much for any other types of mods.
So far, I've been looking around and I *think* I would need the following:
- NEEDED: field models, field and battle scenes, and remastered FMVs
- MAYBE: battle models, and also menu overhaul
I'm thinking of installing the following mods/patches (in the order I've listed):
Cutscenes:
FMV Restoration
(Replaced eidoslogo.avi with a dummy blank video :p)
Field Scenes:
sl1982 Field packs
Project Blackfan sets
FacePalmer set
Battle Scenes:
Magochocobo sets
FeliX Leonhart sets (also with some Field scenes)
Models:
Unified Model Installer U002a (for the lego field models, motorbike minigame, the awesome weapon models I've seen, etc.)
^ (is this alone is enough?)
I ordered them this way because I think the later installed ones will overwrite the previous ones in case of conflicts, so I put the best looking ones at the bottom.
Am I getting this right? And is there anything that I can add?
Thanks.

PS: Also, I've tried installing Team Avalanche's Hi-Res (was quite hard to find since the links in the official sticky are currently down), but...what exactly does it add? I'm not seeing any differences... but then again, I haven't gotten out of Midgar yet, lol.
And also, I'd install Menu overhaul now too but I'm still currently enjoying YAMP (Kruci's always run, and Gypt for skipping cutscenes), just so I can test the mods quickly. And they don't seem to work together.
