FF7 Disc Extension Patch (NTSC)
Version 1.0
Expands the SCENE.BIN and KERNEL.BIN files for heavier modding
Tired of working within the filesize constraints of FF7 PSX? This Disc Extension Patch expands the KERNEL.BIN to 64kb and the SCENE.BIN to a whopping 2mb. Just apply the PPF patch to an NTSC Disc One ISO and you'll never need worry about filesizes again! Whether you need a bigger KERNEL for a translation patch, or you want to extend the SCENE's AI, the Disc Extension Patch should be part of every modder's arsenal.
This mod currently supports only the NTSC version

Installing and Using the Patch
The patch is a simple PPF file, with instructions bundled in the download. The patch moves the files in question to the MOVIE directory, right at the end of the disc. You can then use something like CDMage or cdprog to import your modified files into the ISO.
Please be aware that this patch is mostly untested. Whilst I can confirm success playing ISOs with KERNELs and SCENEs larger than allowed in vanilla FF7, I cannot guarantee the exact max sizes of either file.
