Title: Remake Project... A Question:
Post by: MMiller8 on 2001-05-31 16:36:00

Are you updating the 3D engine?  What I mean is, are you going to give the remake better 3D graphics?  Heck... how about the backgrounds?  Are they going to be better?  How far are you in making it?

Your not allowed to do this really at the eidos board. People still get annoyed. And only Moggraider is technically allowed to spam up the board cause hes the mod!  :D

yeah, Moggraider's a pretty mad mod. he only came to this board once or twice before though, i dont think he liked the number of his posts if he could be in control on some other board. lol

I think we have already answered these questions before... but, one last time:

-The decision on which engine to use hasn't gone completely final yet. The preferred option is to use the original game engine, simply editing the game data files. This would mean we could change the graphics, sounds, and levels, but the basic game structure would be the same. No improvement in graphics quality, for instance (although, we could use higher-poly 3d models - but it'd still run at 640x480x16).

-However, if we can't hack out certain structures (like, how the "scripts" are stored) we'll have to code up our own game engine.

Either way, we'd like to reuse quite a bit of the material from FF7 Original (some locations) while including some totally new stuff.

Thanks, Ficedula!  I should've asked for the polygon count too, but you answered that pretty well.
