[FF7PC-98] The Reunion (OLD THREAD, SAVED FOR POSTERITY)

[DLPB_]

The problem is most likely touphScript.  Menu mod handles cursors perfectly.  I will  notify luksy and look further into it.

edit:

The same dialogue has 2 boxes...  so one is being updated, and one isn't.  Will need fixing in tS. Thanks for bug report.

[Nywie93]

you have the finish the M004 , and you works to the M005 now ?
where download the FF7  1.03 ?
thanks for the news letters DLPB

[DLPB_]

I have no idea where you can find a 1.03 exe

[DiminishedAC]

I cannot figure this out.....I can't find anything that says "readme" let alone instructions. I installed Aali's custom driver first on my clean install, then installed M004d. Everything else works perfectly other than the graphics. It's not that big of a deal as I don't need it, but it's the main reason why I'm here. I thought it was because I was loading from a save, but even when I choose "New Game" everything is the same. Is there a specific way to run the game or something?

hi, new to this site and modding. i just found this installer today and have a question b4 a start installing it, i just prefer some clarification.
just so you have idea of what i have installed:
i have the ff7 pc version MAX INSTALL. As for mods i have 1.aali's driver, 2.the ff71.02 thing, 3.avalanche graphic overhaul, 4.prp 5.your ff7music (thank you btw its great) 6.w/ custom cloud.
7. Last but not least i downloaded the 9999 + YAMP file i did the whole making patch folder in my directory and clicking on YAMP installer and it did the 9999 dmg patch.
I just found this menu overhaul project and wanted to install it. as far as i could tell, none of my mods should interfere w/the installer except the YAMP+9999 patch.
SO, am i already screwed on the 9999patch and it own't work w/your stuff? Is there a way w/o deleting everything and starting fresh??
I noticed the Felix patch thing and checked out his mod which looks great. just to clarify, is there some part of his MOD that i should not install (i'm assuming a map or something) after downloading this new Menu??
appreciate all the work u guys have done thanx

Re-run the individual installer files (I had to do a couple three times for it to stick), and make sure to read the ENTIRE first post.  There are settings in ff7opengl.cfg you need to modify for this to work.

[DLPB_]

The settings in that config file are automatically edited by the installer.  You just have to check they have been altered.

When you have run the installer, readme's are on desktop.  I suppose I can place them before hand.

[DiminishedAC]

Well, I tried messing with the configs, but that didn't work either. I tried installing the MOP first, and then the installer, but still no luck. Maybe it matters I'm running on a 64-bit Windows 7? I also installed the game to a different directory (C:/Games/Square Soft, Inc/Final Fantasy VII) and I gave full permissions to the folders and applications. Oh, and I just looked but I have no idea if it matters, there are no files in the textures folder.

[PitBrat]

DiminishedAC,
Are you using the Felix's PNG textures?
You have to make sure the folder structure is correct inside your MODS\ folder.
After Menu Overhaul installs, the mods path is DK\.
Place all of the battle scene folders containing the PNG's into the MODS\DK\BATTLE\ folder.

The TEXTURES\ folder will remain empty unless you use The Remix, Avalanche or a Limit Break mod.
Use of the TEXTURES\ folder requires additional modification of the .LGP files.

EDIT:
What 'installer' are you using?  The Felix Leonhart battle textures do not have an installer that I'm aware of . . .

[DLPB_]

All that info is on first post...  and make sure you are not clocking the 2 uninstall options at the bottom of the installer.

[DiminishedAC]

Ooooh! I was under the impression that all of that was included in the installer xD I'm sorry guys. Guess I missed something when I was reading. Does his textures change the character models? If so, could you give me a link to his post? Thanks for the quick replying guys!

[DLPB_]

This is called Menu overhaul, not model overhaul.  Read the first post.

[cloud4u2]

just to clarify, if i have already installed 9999 break hp patch and haven't used your installer yet, will there be any problems or interference with those patches if i download and use this menu overhaul installer?

[DLPB_]

Read the first post.

3. Do NOT install any break 9999HP patchers.  I have now taken into account the main patch and there should be no further issues.   Do NOT use aali's driver option for 9999 patch either.  Use the one that comes with this installer.

There should be no issue, but you aren't supposed to have used it.  I make that clear numerous times.  This installer comes with the 9999 patcher.  I also make that clear.

[cloud4u2]

sorry, i'm new and don't know much about modding and tryin to read and understanding everything. just so u know i didn't come across your Menu Overhaul Installer and tell myself, well i should install the 9999break hp patch first... i get the point not to install a patch buuuttt (yes there's a but)
I had already installed that patch B4 i even realized YOUR installer was in existence. i couldn't find info for people that had the patch previous to this installer whether they should delete the files somehow or restart w/a fresh install.
so b4 using your menu overhaul installer, i was just tryin to clarify that specific circumstance....

thanx for quick reply and the easy-all-in-one installer. i'll give it a go and hopefully nothing goes wrong

[DLPB_]

If something does go wrong, you can always uninstall by file.  It is an option in installer.

[DiminishedAC]

Well, I figured everything out. Got the graphics working, learned to use Aali's lgp tool; i'm set. Oh, and I was wondering if there was a magic mod? One that changes the appearance? I have only found ones that add new spells or just changed the names.

[KaidenJames]

Diminished, I think Felix is working on something. Just wait a bit and check his thread in the Graphical Mods section 

[DiminishedAC]

Oh, ok! Thanks Kyubi! I just got the FMV restoration working and hopefully working on some yuffie retextures. Who knows, maybe I'll come up with something? Just need to get down to basics i guess!

[Ouroboros]

Can you share the link to the yuffie re tex?

[DiminishedAC]

Can you share the link to the yuffie re tex?

I haven't even started yet. It might be a while before I finish, but I'll put up some images to show you how far along I am

[DLPB_]

Take this to PM people. 

[norikoteiko]

very nice work it looks still prity

[DLPB_]

Work is still ongoing, so don't think I have dropped off..  I have been a bit busy lately with fending off mindless automaton traditionalists with regards to a sport i like called Snooker.

Time consuming but they need a kick up the arse so I cam giving them it with a youtube video.

[Fischkopf]

What about some Screenshots? I can't see, how your mod looks.
