For fun I have been recreating the battle system from FFVII and maybe making a little game out of it or something. I've been following the Mechanics FAQs by TFergusson and have been doing pretty well with that. There are still many things I haven't been able to find documented anywhere. One of the things I cant figure out is how a character's Base HP is calculated (before materia and such alter it).
This information is getting harder to find as it seems the interest in figuring out the mechanics of FFVII has waned recently. I'm also sad to see the Remake project I had seen years ago seems to have vaporised.
The project I'm working on right now (for fun and my own pleasure) is a basic multiplayer game based off the battle system in FFVII. If I ever make anything cool out of it I'll post about it here.
Thanks for reading.
Props to all those skilled hackers (I say that with love) who have supported this game over the years (Qhimm, Ficedula, creator of FFVIIw, and others)
