FF7 Tools / Re: [PSX/PC] Save Editor - Black Chocobo (v1.16)

Hi,

Can anyone let me know if Black Chocobo can meet my needs for the following scenario, and if so, how?

I recently used the Steam console to re-lock all of my achievements for FF7 with intent to play through it again. I should have thought first about how this is a unique game where it seems like both achievements and cloud saves are actually synced to Square Enix's servers, and then sent to Steam. When I booted up FF7, all of my achievements instantly unlocked again:


This is either due to:

• Steam reading from Square Enix's achievement servers and syncing with those
• Steam reading from my save data and syncing achievements with that

My guess would be #1. So, my first question is: Can Black Chocobo help me delete my synced achievements on the Square Enix servers? It's really bad that all of my achievements now show the same minute as their unlock time, because achievement aggregators and leaderboards are going to view that as me being a cheater, using some tool like Steam Achievements Manager, and I'm not.

My second question: Can Black Chocobo in some way assist me with totally deleting (not just overwriting) my save files? I used Square Enix's cloud syncing, so all of my save files are in the cloud, and I don't see anywhere to access or delete them on my local system. Is there some way I can start fresh without any save files?

Thank you, and sorry for my inexperience.
