Hi All,
I'm new to these parts- Didn't even know FF7 had such an intense modding community until recently! Anyway, I was wondering if it is possible to change Cloud's on screen model to another character, specifically Tifa or Aerith.
Also, I can't seem to find a working link to the torrent of all the mods- All I can find is broken links or the link in the Tifa thread, which leads to a small file that isn't usable. I'm most likely doing something wrong...
Thanks~!
-
possible? yes
probable? also yes
But it's a lot of work to make this actually work with everything, especially story related events.
I suppose one way to make it easier would be to add a script command that forces cloud as party member for story events just prior to them.
-
Oh ok thanks, so there isn't any mod out now. About the torrent that contains all mods- any idea on where I can get that? Downloading one by one is fairly daunting.
Thanks again!

The file in my Tifa's Bootleg or Tifa's Package threads is called "[kickass.to]tifa.s.package.bootleg040.mods.torrent" and to get it to work, you need to install a BitTorrent client. I personally use uTorrent.

Oh wow, I feel stupid... Haha thanks!!

It's possible to do it, without massive working on the script. With the mod manager from Iros (here (http://forums.qhimm.com/index.php?topic=14402.msg202636#msg202636)), it is possible to replace a model and its animation completely.

Oh cool! So there's hope at least. Good to hear. Thanks!

not every model ( and model type ) has enough animations to actually supply all needed animations the fieldscript calls for
a lot of models use clouds model TYPE but if you replace him with tifa, aerith or someone else that uses a different type, animations get all screwed up
-
That's why you need to replace the animation with corresponding ones. I don't say it's easy to do, but it's lot easier to make it with the wrapper. Well, I don't believe that somebody really starts to replace Cloud with a different character model. You will need to create new animations, specially if it has a different bone structure to the one of Cloud.
It is still too much work.

This is the bottleneck. Scratch animations are a huge time-sync. If you can avoid working on an animation, do it. Trust me.
