Opening to Train on the way to subway before reactor 5

Note: Some of the scenes cause glitch errors due to palette changes. I have included the files anyways for those that wish to use them. If you want to get rid of the errors just delete the PNG that has the 15 in it. IE tin_1_15_00.png

Instructions:
1. Open ff7opengl.cfg and make a modpath (If it is set to something other then 'modpath = none' then you already have one. Use that)
2. Extract to your modpath ( /mods/[whatever your modpath is])
3. Enjoy.

Screens:

very good work. I'll go from the final battle then. keep it up.
 
I've had a bad first experience on the forum but anyway like I've always said : thanks for your works ! Happy to see that some mods continue to be released ! :) Like Aali who have recently updated his OpenGL driver.
 
Just tried this, looks quite good, definite improvement over the originals.
Nice work sl :)
 
Just tried it myself. I second everything Timber said. Looks good  ;)
 
was wondering if your having any problems with animations? the animations in the forgotten city seem to have been lost in the conversion (but not the animations of the backgrounds I did in midgar). And some of the scenes are much too bright without the layers of light fading in and out. Will I just have to wait for a new palmer to fix these?

Animations are tricky things. You have to render a scene for each seperate animation. As for lighting you are best off deleting these files from your releases as the driver has no way of implementing palette changes in the pngs. If you are using 0.7.10b it will actually give you a GLITCH error involving palettes. This is your best clue that some file is not working properly.
 
Yeah I was thinking I might have to leave the light as is. Just wanted to get your opinion on it. Thank you sir.
 
Can anybody maybe post a screenshot of the improvements? I just left for vacation and will be gone for another 2 weeks, so I wont have a chance to try it out myself for a while ]=

Thank you in advance
 
Also just curious how you are finding the names of the files so that you can follow them in order? Do you have some sort of a reference, this would be great cuz right now I am just opening files in palmer at random trying to find the right files. If there is no reference available I might just have to go go alphabetically after all because this is turning out to be quite a hassle.

Screenshots would be nice indeed.

Turn on show missing textures in ff7opengl.cfg. Then it will log in you app.log what files it is looking for at what scene. Or you can look on the file reconstruction, there is a list of what field files are what.
 
Gave them a go. They look great! In reviewing the screenshots you've uploaded, it always amazes me that the game cuts off a good portion of some of the larger backgrounds.
 
Just to make a quick feedback, now that I've tested it. The enhancement is really visible, on a 1920x1080 resolution what a change, no pixels (and there are legion on that resolution).
Really a good enhancement, good work as always ! And again thanks for sharing with everybody !
 
Thanks! I hope to have the next 10 scenes out soon, but honestly some of these scenes are a royal pain in the ass to do.
 
yes they are I recently stumbled upon one with over 20 layers in it.

*edit*
I just ran into a scene with 61 layers :o

Just tried this out, I am amazed  :o

I always play at 1680x1050 which is noticeably pixellated, but with these, it's super smooth. Sure, there are some things that look odd, but the overall quality of it is quite outstanding! It's almost like a re-render.
 
sorry i'm pulling my hair out right now, but i have tried all i can think of but to no afail.
how do i use this mod? i have put the folder in the /mods/, and have edit the modpath, but still i can't see any changes.
can someone help me, please guide me with simple & easy step?
