Ultima Weapon glitch

[Coheed]

I looked around and didn't find anything, but has anyone had any problems with Ultima Weapon on the world map?

It seems that randomly after I fight Ultima Weapon it will disappear completely, even after searching the entire map for fifteen minutes he is no where to be found.

Just wondering if anyone else was having this problem and if there might be a fix for it. (I've been restarting the game after every battle to get it to reappear, except once where he stayed on the map.)

By the way: I'm using the Hi-Res patch with FF7Music and the MGP.

Part of the game.

Oh, all right, thanks for the quick response and thanks for answering my question.

That happened to me, just go into a town then come out and search, it should be there

Ulty likes to fly around, though he'll usually beeline to different locations.  You ahve to ram him w/ the highwind to get him to go to a new location quicker. Just try patrolling north cave, wutai, cosmo canyon, mideel and midgar, you should find him eventually.  (he ends up at otherplaces, but those seem to be his favorite)

Yep, EmperorSteele, It's just that I've never had this problem on the PSX version.. Ultima Weapon literally disappearing from the map.. :/

He despawns (from what I found) untill you get to a certain point in the game, he then spawns again.

Well, I just kept restarting and I eventually beat him, though in the strategy guide I have, you aren't supposed to beat him until Disc 3. Oh well.
