Title: Game Editing Tutorials?
Post by: Valcus Valentine on 2007-04-29 09:00:42: Hay all, my first post. ^^

So, does anybody know if there are any tutorials for editing FF7? I was trying to change Cloud to a ShinRa MP Soldier, which worked fine in the map but crashed when entering a battle, and I also tried changing Vincent's and Sephiroth's places. That time it looked so horrible in the map I didn't even get to test it in a battle..

I did that, and I think I could make you a tutorial for you, but could you be a bit more precise on WHAT you want to edit in FF7PC? I'll send you a PM with the tutorials after you tell me what you want to edit.

I'll put the tutorial up here then as a downloadable item because of bandwidth problms that some people have.

Well, ANY kinda tutorial would be great, but I think hex editor tutorial would be easiest.

Post by: murak on 2007-04-29 13:05:47: I myselfwouldn't be able to write a hex editor tutorial since it's very precise an alters quite a bit, but I'll work on a kimera replacement tutorial, battle/field tutorial, how to get tifa working tutorial,(tifa's hip screws up when you try to change it to something.) I'll begin work on it today.

Post by: Borde on 2007-05-01 20:44:52: Thanks for reminding it ice_cold513 but... that FAQ is horribly outdated. I don't know if it will be of any use right now.

Post by: stormmedia on 2007-05-02 01:51:48: Yeah of course it will be of use. All the basics of ff7 model editing is in it. Of course the Kimera part is outdated.... but still.

Post by: steven on 2007-05-11 10:24:52: Speaking of tutorials It would be nice to get a good on on editing the ff7 text. I wanted to make a prodigy ver and there is just so much text and I am pretty sure there is a lot that is redundant and or never used. I would need to find a way to figure out what needs to be edited and what will never be seen.Also how to add more dialog to certain points and make a conversation a little longer.
