Is there any way to improve on the existing "UI Sounds" rather than just replacing them with something else from another game?

The original ff7 UI sounds are an option. There isn't much you can do to a midi file to "improve it"... And the FFX sounds are essentially "improved" ff7 UI sounds. They are already exactly what you're asking for, so you're covered.

All spell names are real/official names you can find on finalfantasy.fandom.com.

Hi! I can't get this pack to work (I got a FF XIII UI Replacement to work). I get no errors, I just don't hear any new sound effects when in battle for anything. Everything still sounds vanilla. What should I do? I installed through 7th Heaven. I can toggle it on and off. I just don't hear the difference.

Is you "Media" mod above this mod in your load order? Make sure this mod is above all other mods that have an effect on the sound effects, specifically the "Media", "ProtomanZxAdvent's Mod Compilation" (if you use that), and "FFXIII UI Sounds". The only reason this mod wouldn't work is because of load order... If you can't figure out which mod is overwriting this one, just put this mod literally at the top of the load order. It can't hurt anything since it only changes the sound effects... If it still doesn't work after that, try to re-download it. It's possible the .iro file became corrupt in your initial download.

No, there isn't. Sorry.

I don't know what you mean by high pitched at the end... It goes down in pitch throughout the sound:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/lkqlnlr2pgzqn4i/42%20battle%20swirl.wav?dl=0

It's definitely lower in pitch than the original high pitched static sound.

I'll think about changing it in the future if more people hate it.

You can either;

1. Move it to under the mod that changes your start menu in your load order (this may not be an option if you're using the ESUI that's included with the User Interface compilation since I would assume the theme needs to be on top of ESUI)
2. Unpack the theme and delete the start menu, then add it back to 7H until they add the option to turn it off or they remove it all together. (this is what I did so I just wouldn't have to worry about the load order of my start menus)

Completely Unrelated / Re: Real or Fake???

« on: 2020-04-02 04:44:50 »

I watched the video without reading anything you said first... A lot of different thing definitely seemed weird as I watched it... The lady in pink pants walking away from the camera felt like she was never getting any farther away from me and walking in place or something... What was even weirder was the result of that same lady's pose in the thumbnail scrubber:
https://youtu.be/Vfw6A5uf9Tk
her pose is the exact same in every thumbnail! just moved around in the frame...
And I thought to myself "Is this what he meant by faked?"... and you did.

Having said all that, it's definitely just optical illusions caused by some crazy long zoom they have on the camera... like a CRAZY long zoom. That's why it seems like they're walking forever but not getting any closer... and the lady's pose in the thumbnails is probably just a coincidence and she's walking at a VERY steady tempo.

Sounds good. Thanks for the mod, it looks nice. I know someone is working on SFX, I wonder if they could incorporate the Remake menu sounds. I think those sound really nice.

The UI SFX of Remake are very low, very understated "clicks". They're designed to be heard when you pause the game and it turns ambient noise completely off and turns down the volume of the music. In the original, the UI sounds are heard over top of the battle with the music blaring... If you put Remake's UI sounds in there, you just wouldn't be able to hear them.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PWq2cVRIQ8c

Heck you can barely hear them with the music volume down and the ambient sound off.

Support / Re: [FF7PC] Doing my font Mod. I have transparency issue. Help.

« on: 2020-03-29 03:46:29 »

Had the same issue while creating my Remake theme with Photoshop.

For whatever reason, Photoshop is saving our transparent PNGs with a white background "underneath" the transparency. 

I ended up opening these PSDs in GIMP to export to PNG with that information kept intact.

If anyone at all can tell me how to get Photoshop to do this natively so I can skip this extra step, I would greatly appreciate it.

This is definitely a thing. Photoshop doesn't "do" transparency all that well... We used to go through the exact same thing when making skin mods for Darkest Dungeon. You'd end up with big white splotches in game where there should be transparency .. It was as easy as exporting the .png from Photoshop, open the same .png in GIMP and export it again from GIMP with the transparency turned on (or something like that). You actually didn't have to do any editing in GIMP. Just use it for exporting... I don't know if that same process would work here though.

Nah there's nothing wacky, guys.  I just didn't include a mod.xml file because there's just nothing to change/configure...  It's a very simple mod; when you turn it on, it's on...  Any mod that doesn't have a config menu will show "Can not configure mod..."   I assure you, the mods works just fine.  Also, this mod should be above any other sound mods in your load order.  It's supposed to overwrite all other ones.

As far as it not deleting from your disk when you uninstall from 7H... 7H should delete it from your mods folder and remove it from your mods list... But 7H can't delete any other copies you might have on your computer like in your downloads folder or something, since it wasn't downloaded from the 7H catalog. That's just not possible for 7H to do... If you mean it's not deleting from your 7H mods folder after you uninstall it, and it still shows up in your list of mods, there's nothing I could do about that. That would be a 7H issue... It's deleting out of my mods folder when I uninstall from 7H just fine.

I can add a mod.xml to any updates I might do (I'm actually working on something even bigger that will make all other sound packs like mine, Proto, Seclet etc. obsolete and I'll be releasing it in the next couple days... Maybe even tomorrow  ) so it'll show you the the nice "Nothing to configure" dialogue when you try to configure it instead of the error that's confusing you guys, but until then it's not really necessary.

Until then, just turn it on

Releases / [FF7 PC] Bonez' Sound Effect Suite - 3.0 - Deprecated

« on: 2020-03-08 06:55:25 »

This mod has been deprecated and replaced by Cosmo Memory

This project started out about a year ago as a little mod to just replace the FF7 UI sounds with the UI sounds from FFXIII. Since that time, it has evolved into something far more... After following the community and modding the game for several years, I noticed the graphical and musical mods were growing and advancing but the sound effects department was totally stalled. I mean, it's an entire 1/3 of what your senses are taking in, besides the visuals and music! I wanted something to match the beautiful/advanced graphical and musical mods provided by the very talented authors/creators of this community... So, I present to you most complete sound effect replacement mod currently available!

The goal of this mod is to give the sound effects of FF7 a complete overhaul/update with carefully chosen, professional quality, accurately timed, equalized, and edited sounds; on a scale previously never achieved. I'm very proud of what I've managed to accomplished so far and I hope everyone enjoys it as much as I do.

This mod currently replaces/updates ~480 magic/battle/world sound effects with many more to come.

*Disclaimer: This is NOT the same mod of mine that is included in the Qhimm Media mod. That mod only changes the menu sounds. Some people are apparently under the impression that they are one and the same.

I've tested as many sounds as I could and have found no issues. If you run across any, please let me know here
Depending on the music mod you use/don't use, you may need to adjust the music volume down in game. -Better to be too low than too high! Eg; I use EDMusic and Tsuna Arranged and I find SFX:100% and MUSIC:70% to be perfect.
