[FF8PC-STEAM] Difficulty mod ?
« on: 2015-05-11 23:47:39 »
Is there any difficulty mods for FF8 Steam version?

I love the games and all the mods you guys have brought out, but this game is Too easy.
I want to struggle, find the game so hard that i get frustrated with it, and fight the same boss for several hours,
and still fail and rage quit.

If anyone could hook me up with a difficulty mod (Not the add-on damage, hp etc)
I would be in my element

For Steam version, you have to do these 3 steps:
1. Copy files battle.fl, battle.fi & battle.fs from FINAL FANTASY VIII\Data\lang-en\ to the folder above: FINAL FANTASY VIII\Data\
2. Install hardcore patch.
3. Copy files again to FINAL FANTASY VIII\Data\lang-en\ (overwrite).

Got it to work, My mistake i read the installation folder wrong...

For others trying to install this mod

Extract the folder Hardcore into the FF8 directory
then apply the patch...

My problem was i put it in a folder in my documents with the rest of my mods, Then tried to install it
(ID10T error)

Thanks a bunch, Hope it's as hard as everyone says.

Just did a quick test on edea at the end of disc 2, And although she was harder, it was still pie

I Decided to restart once installing the Difficulty Mod to FF8 PC Steam version.
After getting the Garden, I head out GF Hunting, Got Odin immediately (Not doing the no lv game this time round)
I've defeated 47 Tonberry's so far No Tonberry King.

I read on a forum somewhere after about Tonberry #45 That degenerator and Odin do not work on Tonberry's......
Odin has killed 6 so far and i degenerated approximately 16
The rest were killed by Renzokuken. I believe this is a glitch, Maybe because of the Difficulty mod?
Any idea's on a fix? -- I'd like to keep the difficulty mod
