C'mon lad, it's a setting in one of the old builds. If I can remove the section in 03-Battle60fps config from R05's install, then my gripes are resolved. Is there a tool I can use to modify ff7_en.exe after installing Reunion?

are you just trying to turn 60fps battles off? (i keep it turned off, and notice almost 0 difference other than i dont get the related bugs, i have an overpowered graphics card for this game though, could be different for others)

in the The_Reunion folder, open options.ini and change:
 _60fps_Battles = 1 or 2

to

_60fps_Battles = 0

No, I just gripe about the damage numbers disappearing too fast. It's like four frames of numbers, sometimes the number doesn't even draw. I was messing with some of the configs with hextedit, but the fix I had in mind is more complicated than just removing that segment I mentioned earlier.

Iunno what any of these codes do. Removing the #faster numbers segment makes numbers appear twice, one after the other. I know I can have it just right, R04 didn't have this issue, but then in R04, character zoom speeds look weird because they're actually playing in 60fps, on this 15fps playground. Anyone else notice stuff like that in R06? I really only want 60fps battles for the smoov menus, 15 fps battle animations are quite charming anyway.

Code: [Select]
Code: 
#fix numbers array by NFITC15BB464 =  2C ← Dunno what this does5BB5E8 = 0F Bf 52 0C C1 EA 02 ← Like what even#faster numbers5BB464 =  16 ← Same code as above, if I remove this, damage numbers will repeat twice. -4016008FE1E8 =  00 02 04 04 02 00 ← I thought this was some kind of raw frame output for the damage numbers themselves. I still don't really know. -400C00
Tried using cheatengine to find the original values in the base game, but that hasn't really led anywhere. I feel like I've spent too long on this insignificant speck of a gripe, but now I just want to solve it.

looks like you are S.O.L. on getting it to work by editing that...

turning off 60fps battles would solve the number scrolling issue i bet, but if thats a part of the mod you absolutely want then you are back to square 1 on being S.O.L. haha
 
In my project they've reported me this glitch in mds5_5. I've tested with original english R06c and it is present as well
Here it is a screen



how to reproduce:
- exit shinra building
- complete motorbike minigame
- deafeat robot boss
- complete dialogue on the "bridge"
- after that they reach mds5_5
- speak to the character in this order: red, tifa (the choice doesn't matter), aertih (the choice doesn't matter) and barret (choose option 2 "Well...")
- speak again to barrett (this will trigger again aerith text)*
- when aertih text box is still present go down at the exit of the field and the glitch will appear

*By the way is it right that every time you speak to barrett it is triggered aerith text?

Here it is a save (save 2, file 10) https://www.mediafire.com/file/m7uw5oe8zsm34cr/save.zip/file : i've modified the save in order to make cloud able to equip every materia for speed up boss fight

update: With new translation off the glitch doesn't appear

Yeah it is right that when you speak to Barrett her line is triggered.  I'll look into other issue when I have time.
 
Fixed.  Thanks again, usb.

a few quick things:

1. when climbing the pagoda, after the battle gorky says "but you handled yourself pretty good." should be "handled yourself pretty well."

2. this one is really nothing, some missing commas in vincent's line on the highwind: "Ancients... One day we may too be referred to in the same manner." should have commas before AND after the word too (at least in american english)

3. just noticed the epilepsy settings in options.ini, thats cool that you have settings there to limit flashes in the first place, but if I had epilepsy, and went to utilize that feature, I probably wouldn't appreciate being called a poor soul.  just throwing that out there

I feel like number 2 is a personal preference. I notice some people tend to use more commas than others. In this case I wouldn't say commas are exactly required. As long as you're not totally ignoring commas in your writing, you should be fine.

Yep

I'd actually argue for "Ancients... One day we too may be referred to in the same manner."
 
Nope. It's also Shake who says "handled yourself pretty good"  And shake is a kid.

This isn't perfect grammar - it's on purpose.  As I said in a previous message though from this point on I'm not going to respond to gripes about individual lines or grammar either.  I'll read them and change if I see there's a problem.  Also, the full grammar check for R07 hasn't happened yet.  There are thousands of minor grammar issues in there which is why I respectfully ask that you don't post quibbles of that nature.

I probably wouldn't appreciate being called a poor soul.

It's tongue in cheek and British humour.  I'm not changing it because some people get offended at everything.  It's not sarcastic - it's literally empathizing with them.

With the local government asking citizens to stay home, I'm quite glad to have R06c.

ahh, i stand corrected, in my defense gorky is standing right next to him, i must have just assumed he was speaking since you just fought him

and roger that on the comma issue, didnt know if you wanted help catching the really minor stuff or not - you don't
 
What am I doing wrong? I installed The Reunion and can play the game with the retranslation, but battles still run at 15FPS. In fact, none of the settings from Options.ini seem to have any effect. I tried disabling the audio and showing FPS and nothing changed (the reason I know battles are 15FPS is FRAPS). Setting New_Translation to 'n' doesn't disable the retranslation (not that I would want to), and Transparent_Dialogue has no effect either.

If you're wondering, Disable_The_Reunion is set to 'n', and _60fps_Battles is set to '1'. I'm running the Steam version of FF7.

Edit: Just for testing purposes, I tried disabling The Reunion by sending the dll files to the Recycle Bin, and the game still plays with the retranslation. What on earth is going on?

Hey! I've started playing FFVII again with your Reunion mod. I thoroughly enjoy it and am loving the translation, even though I am not even into the second reactor yet. I am not using any extra graphics mods or models or anything like that, just what was included in the Reunion mod itself. And I think I toggled on the PlayStation buttons option.

But I seem to have encountered a problem. Alas I cannot repeat it and upon a second pass through the area (I had to reload my save) the problem vanished. But I wanted to let you know anyway.

I can't take a screenshot of it, very sorry! They all come out black. But at the "underneath plate 4" save point just past the Shin-Ra security check I had Cloud enter the screen in a standing position on the ladder. He was unable to move and I was unable to resolve the situation without closing the game altogether. I am happy to provide you with any further information you would like, and I have preserved my prior save in order to see if I can replicate the issue.

Again, I've been able to move past that point and maybe it was just a random glitch. But I wanted you to know regardless. Thank you for your time and for all of your hard work.

I will let you know if I encounter any other oddities.
 
If you were not using new translation then that it a known bug with the original version.  If you are, then I need to look at it.  But read the first post.

Do not report bugs that are original game problems.

See first post.  No one can help if you don't help us.  Think about it logically...  how can anyone help you with absolutely no information to go on?

I know it's kind of a pain, but I've been saving, exiting, copying the save file to My Documents > Square Enix > Final Fantasy VII > user xxxxx directory, disabling The Reunion in Options.ini and booting the game everytime I'm about to reach the criteria for an achievement, getting the achievement, quitting and then reenabling The Reunion again.

It's not too bad since there are very few achievements and the requirements are easy to track.

when i first installed r06, i looked in each and every folder and subfolder in the The_Reunion directory looking for a save file so i could do stuff like this (and help test some bugs i was getting), didnt find it, then gave up... now i see in FF7's root folder there is literally a folder called 'save'

 :oops:
