7th Heaven Support on the New Version
« on: 2026-01-29 16:44:46 »
Hello to all.

Square just announced a new version of the original Final Fantasy VII. This new version will substitute the 2013 version, but those who purchase the 2013 version will be able to get both versions.

So, do you think 7th heaven will be compatible with the new version?

If it turns out to be non compatible is it possible to make mods work with pirated versions?, since currently it requires the Steam version to use mods and it will be de-listed.

Pirated games will never be supported ever.

Sucks for the new players who can't use the mods then, piracy is keeping games alive when studios de-list them from the store.

We have no idea how the new version will work. We don't know if mods will just work out of the box.  We don't know if they'll work with very little effort, some effort, or a lot of effort. We don't know if some mods will work and some won't. We don't know if they'll never ever work no matter what. We just don't know. No sense speculating til it does and we see what is and isn't possible.

I wouldn't bet on compatibility at all. 99% it won't work. We already know that saves are not compatible between versions, if such a simple thing as a save file is not compatible, what chances do complicated mods have?

The real question is if the 7th heaven and other mod creators are both capable and willing of making updates that make the mods compatible with the new version, but that can only be answered after the new version is released.
