General Discussion / Can't return to gold saucer because game wants to replay old story scenario
« on: 2023-08-02 18:59:00 »
This is on FF7 Steam version + 7th heaven
Okay, so I have quite a problem of a glitch.
Ever since I completed the Corel Prison scenario and got the buggy, anytime I return to the cable car to go to Gold Saucer, the game re-triggers the Barret cutscene that shows what happened to the village. I've already seen this! Worse, from there if I ride the cable car, the game treats it like its my first visit to Gold Saucer and even forces Cait Sith to (re)join me and I get thrown right back in prison.
Oh well. I guess I won't be going back to gold saucer.
Well, now I'm at the part where I need to get the keystone and I can't get to the saucer because it'll force me back into old old game scenarios and back into prison.
Is there something I can trigger to make the game realize I already did that part?
Loading and replaying saves from earlier in the game doesn't help - leads to the same problem.
I am using mods (via 7th heaven). Most notably echo-s and other tsunamods. Running the game without mods doesn't seem to change anything though.
Fun facts when i tried to simply go along with repeating the story scenario:
- if I approach the cable car with party members that don't exist in the scenario (Vincent, Cid, Caitlin Sith) the game will freeze before the flashback starts
- if I replay the corel prison scenario and get a second buggy, I can enter gold saucer no problem but the keystone won't be there because the game now expects me to go to cosmo canyon.
- if I proceed to Cosmo Canyon to re-do that scenario, I can't get in the town because the npc blocks me and says that my friends are all gathered around the campfire. Normally this npc is to keep the player in the town but now he's keeping me out.
-if I proceed to go to Nibelheim, there is no Sephiroth event in the mansion
-if I proceed go to rocket Town (using bronco) the Cid scenarios do not re-trigger
-blacksmith is not in his house anymore. Disappears after the Corel prison scenario is re-done.
-point is.... repeating the story events I'm forced into leads to the same problem.
