[FF8] FFVIII Reloaded - Hard mod by mexico
« on: 2025-01-04 12:51:07 »
A French modder, Mexico, did a long time ago a famous Hard mod called FFVIII Reloaded.
It's an amazing mod and you can find the trailer in French here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=68CLED6NDMk
I adapted it to make it works with FFNx and Junction8, so now all French can appreciate this masterpiece with graphical/sound mods !

But that's not all.

With the new tools for language, now we can adapt this mod to every language ! The author changed a lots of line of dialogue (like a lot !) which need to be translated.
If you are interested in working on the translation on any language, please contact me ! It will just be an excel to fill online, 0 knowledge of modding required except languages !

I will work on the translation to English, but any help is welcome.

It is really worth this little work of translation, the mod is amazing. It changes lots of thing:
- Enemy stats and AI adjusted.
- New bosses and enemies added.
- Magic spells modified in both power and attributes.
- GF abilities reworked and improved.
- The card mod is only accessible on Disc 4 via an item and only if you’ve completed your collection.
- Different enemy drops and magic steals, usually far less plentiful.
- Magic draw points altered.
- New side quests and changes to existing ones.
- And much more…

You can find it on J8.
Enjoy !

We are working on it, but my english knowledge of the game is not good enough to translate all fields correctly. So waiting someone that can do that.

What is the update on this? I really would love to play this in ENGLISH.

Still in work, I have translated all battle files and all menu files. Quite a lot of work even with all my tools helping on updating text !
Someone helped me a bit on the story text, but I still have 269 translation to do on this. And sadly I have never played the game in english so I am not good at translating with nuances. So I will probably end by translating like a robot and accept it will not be perfect.

Life a bit busy at the moment so I don't advance really fast, but I work on it !

Don't hesitate to help me on Patreon to support the work :) https://www.patreon.com/c/HobbitMods
