Yea I've found which mod(Avalanche Hi Res) has the .png in it and I think im gonna cut the resolution down a few notches so it doesnt look like 1080p in a miniHD 480p format and just replace the graphic, not the whole summon. The original just looks to jaggedy edged its one of the few things that stands out that remind me of the whole "They were just doing what they could with what they had while they were learning to make 3D games and make them fit on CD's"

I'll take a crack at getting it ig later, I think i need to convert it to .tex before I can add it to the LGP, unless with Aali's driver I can just put it somewhere in your reunion mod folder like I did with the minimum character portraits.
 
You can.  Any and all images like that can be used from the modpath.  At least, I think so.
 
The thing is... if I update that, it stands out like a sore thumb against all the rest.  And if you then update all summons, they are out of place with the battle, and then you're right back to the same issue of updating the entire game.  You can add that mod separately if you want, off course :)

In other news, I'm renaming "Chocobo and Moguri" Summon to "Chocobo".  The former is too long and clunky.

Why not "MC Hammer" (Moguri Chocobo Hammer)?
Just kiding. :P
 
Ok so it worked perfectly, just dropped the boom_a_00.png into reunion\magic and I used a slight blur to make it not so perfect.

I'm still not sure I have the movies in the right folder though, I'm using the 1998 version so it doesnt automatically create a folder for them, so I did myself at FFVII\data\movies.

The path would be Final Fantasy VII\movies. Make sure the registry is also updated to point at the hard drive.
 
I already enjoyed the cut part of the interview! :)

Looking forward to R04! It'll be a wonderful release!  ;)
 
It's impossible to keep up with this thread lol, discussion and progress just keeps chugging along. I was curious about a possible option for the Reunion. I've been learning Japanese for awhile now and have been using Manga to base my progress on. I was thinking it would be awesome to play through FFVII with it's original Japanese dialogue and menus. The re-release/Steam versions don't support it, and you cant buy the JP version outside of the country (I tried). It seems like you already have access to all the materials to mod the US version into Japanese, is this a feature you'd be interested in? It's a bit outside the scope of the Reunion so if not that's cool. I have a pretty good understanding of how the menu's and everything work at this point, if you or anyone else has the materials needed I could probably put together a mod for this.
 
To put that back in would be an enormous amount of work and I'm definitely not doing any other languages.  Sorry :P  I'm afraid the project is staying as it is on the first page.  Although the new menu overhaul is being finalized and discontinued with R04.
 
Nah that's cool, I figured it wouldn't be a horribly useful feature for the Reunion, bit off topic. Do you or anyone else have the necessary files to put something like that together though? I found this: https://www.ff7catalog.com/threads/9709/ but it looks like it's been abandoned, and probably didn't even work. I was thinking of putting this together similarly to how the re-translation works, just in Japanese.
 
Have you considered right-aligning the words Gil and Remaining, and left-aligning the numbers that go with them? Those big gaps make it hard to visually scan; this was a problem with the original too.

The game prints the numbers right aligned.  The function would need editing.  NFITC1 may know how to edit the function to do this so we could reate a new function for left aligned numbers.  At least with Weapon, the numbers I use aren't crazy haha.  The difference isn't so great though even with lefr aligned because, let's face it, the original menu and engine are dated beyond repair.

Hmm it would appear the new menu crashes the game when Cait Sith's slots are used. Haven't tried with Tifa's limit break, though I can confirm it only crashes when the new menus are in use. I'm using no other mods other than Anxious Heart.
 
Aren't you taking liberties with that mod ? I ask that because I'm thinking ...wouldn't it be better if the locations of the main boxes (materia list on the right and materia informations on the left) were inverted ? You select the materia in the list on the left of the screen and you get the info of the selected materia on the right of the screen. For me that would make more sense.
 
The difference isn't really worth the effort to change it now.  It's very hard to reposition, but if people want to do so they can use the file I've made when it's released.
 
Cool.
And no problem, I understand.
And that looks so much better, great work as always. I'm really looking forward to this.
 
Hi, how are you, im a new user, first of all, i would like to thank you Daniel Burke, for your hard work. I replayed FF7 using your modifications, and i must say, it is professional to the core! i noticed  two errors:

Mino one:

min71 (Johnny's House): Johnny's father says that he wants to be alone with "the wife" instead of "my wife"

Big one:

In the last fight of Fort Condor, in Disc 2, i cant fight Commander Grand Horn directly. I choose not to hire any units, and let the monster reach the shack, and when the option to fight the boss pops up, i choose yes, and then, instead of fighting the boss, the game wrongly acknowledges that i lost the fight without taking part in it, and then throw me out of fort condor. This is messed up, the only mods that i use is Anxious Heart and Reunion, nothing more, and Aali's Custom Driver (the last revision, of course). Do any of you stumbled across this problem?

PD: My copy of Final Fantays 7 is legit, i bought the platinum edition years ago, and i follow the tutorials on how to install the mods properly step by step.

I'll look into the latter.  As for the former, it's actually a good localization to use "the".  The man is old and when talking about his own wife, it's acceptable (actually it's better than acceptable).  The same as when a man says "The old battle axe". It's always best to run these phrases through google.  You'll see it in use elsewhere.
