Catalogs / Re: [FF7] Qhimm Catalog 3.0 Reports / Requests

« on: 2020-09-03 03:20:43 »

Hello,

Is there some way for me to tell which version of the Hardcore mod is included in Qhimm Catalog - Gameplay? I can't find older release notes anywhere, and the readme file says 1.06, which is NOT the most recent version in Gjoerulv's forum thread.

I ask because I encountered a bug while playing that he claims was fixed by a later version, so I'm trying to figure out whether I need to install his mod manually or not.

Got it, thank you!

Do you know who I could bug about getting the 7th heaven modpack version updated to the correct one?

No, I had no other gameplay mods installed of any kind. Fresh ff7 install with 7th Heaven 2.0 on top, a few model/texture mods, and the Qhimm gameplay suite with your mod selected.

Hello,

I've played through this mod several times, and I recently reinstalled it using 7th heaven with the "hardcore" gameplay mod setting (which I was led to believe was equivalent to installing this the old-fashioned way.)

Everything SEEMED to be fine - I fought the extra boss in Shinra tower (locke, venus, theo) and the other bosses were as hard as I remembered them, but when I got to Cloud's story in Kalm, I was not able to control Sephiroth during the fight with the green dragon, and he auto-killed it in a single crit. That's not how I remember that sequence going. Is something wrong with my copy of the mod? Is the 7th heaven version not actually the correct version?

Hey blankdiploma, and welcome to the forums. With crap, do you mean the in-built cheats, like getting full spell stocks automatically and the like? I guess you already know but I better say it just to be sure, but all these things are optional. Other than that, I don't think there are any real differences between the 2000 PC and Steam versions, besides the launcher. Still, I'm planning to make the mod compatible with other versions too, just not sure when.

Oh, I'm mostly referring to the horrible DRM launcher and (somehow!) managing to ship with WORSE controller support than the original PC release. Those other extras are kind of silly, but really it's just Square Enix's business practices that I don't want to support, not if they're going to treat their venerable franchises this poorly.

It's great to hear that you're planning on making it compatible with other versions of the game! I will gladly wait patiently for that to happen.

Hello,

I purchased the Steam version of FF VIII solely to try this mod, but I didn't realize how much stupid crap they'd forced into the re-release, and refunded it immediately. Is there any chance at all that you might consider releasing a version of the hex edit data for the original 2000 PC release? I understand that it's a bit of work to translate the address space from the steam release to the original, but I really hope you'll consider doing it for those of us who don't want to support Square Enix's awful decisions surrounding this port.
