Update: So recently I got this idea to use the Nothern Crater for something else as it is not used in the main Story mod. Basically it'll give you material with abilities that are similar to Sephiroth enemy attacks. This will go with making Sephiroth only have one limit and that is to transform into Safer Sephiroth. Not sure when i'll implement this still doing some finishing tweaks to the flevel.
Mcindus has supplied a great picture of Kyte check it out here:

Since the story mod is coming to a close on the main fixes for the game to be playable. I also decided to make a mod to use Clouds da file and build some animations from there. He will mostly have his basic animations and will edit the ones that were missing with the da. Also hopefully we can set it up so I can have Sephiroth transform into safer and find how to get the Japanese Supernova to work with him. Well that is all for now I'll try to keep you posted on stuff as I can make them available. I got a bite on creating portraits for the new Characters and will post who I have after more portraits are made.
Since the Story mod is in the final major overhall stages I figured the it is the best time to set up for the eventual release of the Prequel mod. For now since development hasn't fully started for now I can share some details of what to expect to be different.
The story will focus on more characters then just Sephiroth. Zack, Cloud and Kyte I plan to set up their own stages. Angeal and Genesis I still plan to have in there.
Different weapons will be givin to the main protagonists as certain standouts of the First Class soldiers will be playable. One will use Lances and another will use gauntlets. More will be thought of as time progresses and the mod starts getting developed.
That is all I can think to share of right now that isn't subject to massive changes. This is a rough teaser with more to be added and made into a proper preview and progress thread.
