So yeah... I figured out I needed to visit the consoles in your screenshot and was able to progress the game forward. I have no idea how I was able to exit to the outside of Junon through that right hallway. After I was softlocked the first time, I reloaded and didn't use 12x speedhack and for some reason, the game let me go through that exit and that's when my Barret was invisible.

Funnily enough, after I progressed past the consoles and got the part where I am Tifa in the gas room, I got stuck again... lol. So I didn't realize I needed to press the yellow button and first tried to exit the room with 12x speedhack enabled and my Tifa somehow glitched into a tight spot in the doorway to the point where she couldn't move. I had to exit and reload again. I guess I'm good at mistakenly getting softlocked.

I have noticed that using 12x speedhack doesn't allow you to complete certain commands at specific moments. For example, when I was jumping across the stones right before the Aerith scene in the Lost Temple, my Cloud wouldn't jump to the next stone after the second or third one... I can't recall which specific one. It wasn't until I lowered the speed back down to 1.0 was I able to get Cloud to jump to the next stone. I'm wondering if my softlocks in Junon Escape part is due to 12x speedhack.

Hey everyone. I recently started a New Threat 2.0 Type B run a few days ago and I'm absolutely loving this mod. Everything was going perfectly smooth without any issues/bugs until I got to Junon after Cloud gives Sephiroth the Black Materia and you wake up as Tifa after the cutscene. I speak with Barret and once I get control of him, I walk to the media room where Tifa is going to be executed. I watch the dialogue play out and after failing to open the door to the room Tifa is locked in, Cait Sith and Aeris join back up so I now have my full party. I exit the media room and I know I am suppose to turn right to go down the hall and exit to the outside area of Junon. This is exactly where the problem occurred. The game would not allow me to enter to the outside area of Junon like an invisible wall was blocking me. I will note I was speeding up the dialogue and Weapon cutscene with 12x speedhack.

My first time encountering this, I was basically softlocked and couldn't progress the game since the media room is locked and the previous rooms all the way back to the main conference room where Rufus and Heidegger are watching Weapon out the window also lead to more locked doors. I was forced to reload a previous save I had just before the whole Black Materia cutscene. I progressed back to this point and this time I did not use speedhack at all during the media room dialogue and only used it to speed up the long Weapon cutscene. I was able to successfully exit to the outside area of Junon this time but ran into another problem: my Barret was completely invisible. I was somehow able to navigate him, despite being invisible, to the elevator/lift type thing but then the game hardlocked once the lift ended. The game wasn't frozen but I was unable to do anything. I couldn't open the menu or pause or anything like that.

I'm wondering if having Aeris in my party is the root cause since she's suppose to be dead? Curious to hear if this has happened to anyone else.
