Title: Must Install Mods ► COMPENDIUM ◄ [FF7PC][2024]
Post by: Kuraudo. on 2023-01-26 18:25:08

► FFVII MUST INSTALL MODS - COMPENDIUM ◄ [2024]

Square Enix, formerly known as Squaresoft, released Final Fantasy VII (JP) for the Sony PlayStation 1 on 31 January 1997 (PC: 1998; PC Re-release e-Store: 2012; PC Steam: 2013.) In its first decade, FFVII sold more than 10 million copies worldwide, including several reprints. The first Final Fantasy in the series to use full-motion video, pre-rendered 3D backgrounds, and richer 3D graphics and sound design. One of the most technically advanced RPGs of its time, FFVII was a huge critical and commercial success, completely redefining the Final Fantasy franchise and helping to cement Sony's then-nascent position in the home console market with the original PlayStation.

The universe of mods is vast and ever-expanding. The "campus" or origin of the growing modding scene can be traced back to the creation of the qhimm forum in 1999, too many are part of the endless "wall of fame": Qhimm himself, Aali, Ficedula and so on; the dedication and perseverance of the community, together with the constant evolution of hardware and software, has allowed for high level results. With the advent of a new advanced driver called FFNx (https://github.com/julianxhokaxhiu/FFNx), created by TrueOdin in late 2020, there have been real generational leaps. With the team (https://github.com/julianxhokaxhiu/FFNx#the-team) behind FFNx, we experienced: Cosmos Lighting (https://forums.qhimm.com/index.php?topic=20612.0), a feature that adds real-time lighting and shadows; Cosmos FMV (https://forums.qhimm.com/index.php?topic=21029. 0) a character replacement mod for CG footage and even a feature for true widescreen and day/night time cycle, all thanks to Cosmos; the music layer has also been completely reworked to bring you the best audio experience as well as a new dubbing system by TrueOdin and a ton of music enhancements by myst6re including OpenPSF; last but not least the 60 FPS progressive mod finalised by vertex2995 that breathed new life into the game, once you try it you will never go back. Special thanks go to the following specialists who stepped into the scene: TrueOdin, Cosmos, vertex2995, myst6re, but also to all the modders who, free of charge, give us new excitement and contribute to the modding scene... in this regard, it is obligatory to mention Satsuki Yatoshi with the SYW mod and its multi-technique AI upscaling for all the graphics components. Let's break the monotony and continue with the list of must-install mods for 7H.

Which mod shall I use?
[]

For a true FF7 Remastered, improved but still closer to the OG experience, we have got you covered. Below is a list of 15 must-install mods, all in order of priority. Buy FF7 PC Steam, install 7th Heaven (https://7thheaven.rocks/#download7h). Once you have launched the 7th Heaven mod manager, search for the mod name in the Browse Catalog tab and install it. Make sure you press the Auto Sort 1/9 button after installing all mods. Activate and configure it. Ensure your 7H and FFNx are both updated to the latest canary available from Settings>General Settings. Ensure the flag is set to ON in General Settings>Auto Sort Mods by Default.

• NTSC-J Gamut Mode (https://forums.qhimm.com/index.php?topic=21407.0): ON - Noteworthy, but not ultra-compatible with all the mods
  Spoiler: show

  NTSC-J Gamut Mode - What is it? This feature simulate the color gamut of the 1990s Japanese television sets that FF7 and FF8 were originally designed for.
  For the end-user: to get the proper difference, you would want to also calibrate your monitor to 9300k color temperature.
  For the modder: this Gamut Mode is appropriate for: Vanilla FF7; Mod assets that are upscales of the original assets; Mod assets made from scratch where the modder used the original assets as a color reference without doing a gamut conversion.
  The modder that wants to "support" NTSC-J has to convert their textures using this tool. (https://github.com/ChthonVII/gamutthingy) Then convert their PNGs with this tool and afterwards convert eventually to DDS.
  Also: Some basic notion about color gamut. (https://www.eizoglobal.com/library/basics/color_temperature_on_an_LCD_monitor/)

I'm a little confused with regard to the Must Install list. If Echo-S 7 is installed, I'm informed that I cannot use the 60/30 FPS Gameplay's recommended "Field Mode Fix" due to incompatibility with Echo. Moreover, Echo-S seems to include it own VA-friendly soundtrack feature that I assume would conflict with the recommended "Reunion - FF7 PSX OST" soundtrack mod. Should I simply opt for whatever I personally prioritize when it comes to these, or is there a way to make all of them work in concert?

I apologize if I'm overlooking something idiotic, but one of my promises to myself when I bought a new laptop was that I'd christen it with a run of souped-up OG FF7, and I want to make sure I'm doing things the right way.

You can use whatever music you want with Echo-s. Just turn off Echo-s' music. You can use 60fps mod with Echo-s, but you cannot use the field animation fixes with it. it's like 4 fields to fix minor animations, you're not missing anything.

Great list, it's been super helpful!!  One thing:  IFRIT constantly throws out an error complaining it can't confirm compatibility options with Echo-S.  I don't just mean when its installed.  Everytime 7th Heaven runs, a mod is changed, or I try to run the game.  Since I use ESUI + ReTouch, I finally just gave up and removed it.  You have any idea what the problem might have been?

This is the error:

Mod IFRIT - FF7 Interface Tweaks, setting Menu Tweaks - no compatible option can be found. The following mods all restrict how it can be configured:

IFRIT - FF7 Interface Tweaks | (4cbb8a22-3f87-483d-ab8c-81089a875f23)
[Tsunamods] Echo-S 7 | (09e81530-3f09-46b9-831b-df431b8f319c)

EDIT:  The problem is with setting Ifrit to ESUI compatibility mode.  If I switch it to Stock or SYW mode, the error goes away.  That makes me sad.  I could live without Retouched, but I really like ESUI.  Looks like I have to choose between it and Ifrit.  Honestly... is there any reason to choose Ifrit?  I'm not really seeing any.

Long story short: yes. You must choose between IFRIT and ESUI + RT/FT. Just updated the list.

IFRIT it's for who does not want to change much the OG battle UI. But IFRIT might be obsolete very soon if a new mod appears.

Thank you for taking the time to answer.  After dabbling with both, I decided to stick with ESUI.  This was a great list and just the thing to tide me over while i wait for "Rebirth" to drop in 2 weeks.   :D

I'm a noob but really love The Cetra Project's two mod .iros.  Generally, are there any grossly incompatible mods or mod categories that I should avoid using in tandem (i.e. World Textures, Field Textures, etc.)?  Is it ill advised to use mods like ESUI or Echo-S in conjunction with Cetra?  Thanks!

I'm a noob but really love The Cetra Project's two mod .iros.  Generally, are there any grossly incompatible mods or mod categories that I should avoid using in tandem (i.e. World Textures, Field Textures, etc.)?  Is it ill advised to use mods like ESUI or Echo-S in conjunction with Cetra?  Thanks!

You can't have multiple mods that strive to achieve the same thing.
In the case of The Cetra Project 3D Model Pack mod, as far as you don't have any other character field models pack you will be good to go.

Are the nitpicking fixes compatible with the widescreen Limit Break mod?

The first four options yes, not the others.
