Much better to just add a control pad short cut and be done with it (which will also allow for the same keyboard equivalent).  I'd prefer to just not have it at all.

This is a moot debate now because I have added the controller option.  There is no longer any need for it to be an option on the menu.

I should also note that this is only at all relevant when using The Reunion option. When you are not, the menu isn't even touched.

Thanks DLPB!
 

Wish me luck.  The next part means manually entering the table of 116 text images.  Yay.
 
Now what?  I am trying to add a proper global reset into the game to return you to the credit screen like PSX.  At moment, all I can do is force game over from field and battle.  Which is crap.

But, as usual, it's hard to track down exactly how the game initiates a new module load properly.  Maybe NFITC1 will have more luck if I fail.
 
I've worked a way to do it.  Question is whether it will cause some sort of catastrophic crash somehow.
 
Ha.  I've just sussed it completely.  Master reset added.

edit. 

OK not completely... seems load menu is very slightly corrupted.  No idea why.  But reset is working apart from that.
 
Got a problem with the installation, and no solutions in either this thread or the database. I'm using the Square Enix store 2012 re-release version, and have used the FF7 Game Converter linked in the FAQ (Which seemed to install just fine. No errors atleast.), but the Reunion installer is still only giving me a FF7_EN.exe file size is incorrect.
I saw a couple of mentions of this exact problem earlier in the thread.
Decided to install FF7 again and give this mod pack a try, unfortunately I get the error "FF7.exe: File size is incorrect.  Tried patching FF7 after to 1.04 and still no luck.

EDIT:  Got reunion installed, needed the 1.02 patch.  But now after the New Game or Continue screen it goes black and does nothing.


EDIT2:  Just ignore me I'm an idiot.  Dunno what I did wrong but on  try #4 got it all working.

I tried applying the 1.02 patch manually aswell (Though it looks like Game Converter should be doing that already), but it didn't do anything. The rest wasn't very helpful. I've tried every variation of patched/unpatched and/or converted/non-converted there is, still no dice.
Any suggestions?
 
If you use the GC then you need to install this mod for the '98 version of the game.
 
I know you're doing another pass on the translation for 6, which is great. There's a few places where it's still clunky in 5c, and people occasionally talk in very stiff and unnatural ways. I'm trying to make a note of them for you.

Some that leap to mind:
The two people who talk about "planetary biology" (or "planetary bioscience", I forget) leap to mind. It's a very clunky phrase that needs to be changed up, rather than repeated, in order not sound unnatural.
Sephiroth in Cloud's Niblheim flashback also springs out ("What have I to be sorrowful about...?").
I seem to remember that Cloud and Tifa's trip through Cloud's mind in Mideel also has moments of being clunky, too, although unfortunately I can't remember any specifics.

I'll try and make a note as I continue my playthrough. (Usually it's the feeling that the character doesn't sound like themselves.)

Basically, as I'm sure you're aware, the edges still need to be smoothed off in a few places. I assume that's what you'll be attempting in 6.

Alright, how do I go about doing that? If you don't mind helping me a bit more. Not seeing anything related to it in the OP.

It's supposed to sound unnatural.  It's a pseudoscience . A stupid name given to a phony science. It's just as useless in the Japanese game.

Sephiroth in Cloud's Niblheim flashback also springs out ("What have I to be sorrowful about...?").

I disagree.  Sorrowful is a decent word, and it makes sense for Sephiroth to use a distinguished language to your run of the mill NPC.  There is nothing clunky about the word "sorrowful".  "What have I to be sorrowful about" is perfect English.

You can list anything you find clunky or odd about the retranslation and I will consider it - but I won't respond here if I don't change it, because it's getting out of hand having to respond to numerous localization choices.

Sorry, it just seemed to me that since Game Converter seemingly installed without issue, but Reunion doesn't, that it was Reunion I had an issue with. I'll ask around elsewhere then.
 
Reunion hasn't got a problem, because it's warning you your game is not correct.
 
Well, yes obviously. I don't suppose you could atleast give me a pointer as to why it's warning me it's incorrect, so I know where to turn to? Since Game Converter installed just fine, I don't understand why my .exe would be incorrect.
 
The file size is incorrect.   Reasons include:

1. Wrong version of game
2. Wrong patch
3. Failed convert.

I'd have to go with 3.

Just because it said it "converted fine" does not make it so. I don't know anything about the Enix converter.
 
Okay, thanks man. What is the correct file size for ff7_en.exe? Just so I know if I manage to solve it.
