[FF7PC-98/Steam] New Threat Mod (v2.0.999992)

[Scaevola]

This mod is ferning awesome, man. Just took care of Ozma, just amazing. Amazing. I'm not sure if his health was just right or too little. That strawberries's exciting. Just have the final bosses left, as far as I know, but there are still questions on my mind. Firstly, yeah, I wanna figure out that spooky blank-named item. And then there's the SP list of party members, I never found out what the ? ? ? ? ? ? was for, whether or not I can guess doesn't matter as much as if there's anything I can do about it.

how to get Heaven's Cloud weapon ?

You can fight the Iron man in the "Crater - Stone Descent" (Where the Behemoth boss is - the first "Left" when your party splits.)

I believe Heaven's Cloud is it's drop item and you can steal Ragnarok.

-

Is it possible to re-spec with the SP system? I've ended up with a couple of fairly useless characters for the end-game but I'd also like to test out some of the alternate options without replaying the whole game!

If it's not currently possible is it something that can be added in?

I had to fight him 10x times to get Heaven's Cloud, most of the time he has NO drop, he can also drop Ragnarok rarely. Thanks anyway.

Illuyankas (Bottomswell) is fought when playing on Normal Mode; this boss is replaced by a much stronger variant called Jormungandr when playing on Arrange Mode. The model isn't missing textures either, it's just black. If you need notes on AI, weaknesses, and a strat to beat him then I'll post one here later.

Can't add a respec currently, but I'll look into it; I think DLPB was working on adding functionality to add new opcodes to Makou (for savemap editing) but I'll need to check.

That sounds like it could be exploited really easily if you could just re-rank party members for a certain boss. If you make that possible, there should probably be some sort of limit or consequence, but not something necessarily long-term like needing to grind the SP back up from scratch.

For example, let's say you can undo every rank's stat increases for a particular character and be able to pick 8 new ranks from the get-go, but you can only do it once per-character. I feel like once would be good enough considering the length of the game, although I haven't tried Arranged yet. There might also be the issue of how tedious and slow applying sources 8 times in a row would be each time, but that's not as big a deal if it's limited anyway. As to whether you can do this before or after they max out, I'm not sure.

Hey Segabro, finally got around to playing 1.5. o/

Spoiler

Is it a bug, that Tifa doesn't assist with the sewerboss before the graveyard area? :> Or is it simply another feature of the arrange mode, like the silly amount of lasers from the scorpion in the first reactor?

Just got through that part myself, except with Aeris. It must be affected by who you talk to first, like how it would originally affect gold saucer values.

Who you talk to first determines who will be in the battle with you.

how to get Mystile ?
documentation says
Mystile: Mirage [Drop], Dark Cave (Disc 3)
I fought that boss couple times, there is nothing to steal, there is no after fight summary no money, exp or items, screen flashes and I am outside of the Dark Cave... am I doing something wrong ?

 

[Scaevola]

I hope to come across more "oh shit" moments like that boss and the one before it. Also how do I date Cait Sith?

 

[Inuyashaya]

LOVING THIS MOD!! <3 i have some questions.
1) do you have a list for steals rare steals and morphs cause i find myself morphing abd stealing every monster just cause want to know but tried morphing jormungrd and i have to drop it cause is a hard boss (great job on that one)

I've added a debug line to the NPC on the Highwind so that it'll drop when you talk to him (the new technician closest to the Chocobo Pen, the one moving around gesturing). I'll update the flevel patch with it tomorrow.

You can't, he's stealing the keystone D;

So I've been playing the game for quite a while. Enjoying things here and there... thought I'd give a little feedback:

I really dislike this Source system you have going where you choose these fixed upgrades only to find out some charcters might end up becoming completely useless. I scrolled up and saw someone else mention this and you said you can't or havent implemented a reset, however I think an alternative suggestion could be to just leave in SP upgrades except after Level 8, they just be Bonus Levels of sort, maybe giving +5 to all stats or maybe just +5 to any stat of your choosing if +5 to all is too broken. I notice the characters gain SP anyways...

I can fight Mirage using that NPC but still not getting Mystile from it. Only option is to obtain Micro Engine but no Mystile.

I seem to have come across a glitch that's keeping me from buying the chocobo lure, at least at 200 gil. I tried buying it when I didn't have enough, so I had to come back later to when he asks from the get go if I'm ready to buy it. I only have over 500, but it keeps telling me I don't have enough still.

Maybe the gil check is off, had an issue like this before with fort condor. Might be that it deducts 200gil as intended but is checking that 2000gil is available. I'll check that just now.

What are the chances for enemies in Northern Crater to drop weapons? I've been fighting like for an hour, and still no items...
However I stole everything first try with Sneak Glove. Maybe add the option to morph monsters into weapons, in addition to drop? I have everyone maxed and every materia maxed, with only weapons left to farm, and so these item drop rates makes the battles just an artificial waste of time.

By that point in my last playthrough, I was able to blast through those enemies really quickly with the right setups, it was almost kind of fun to see, even though I myself am not the biggest fan of grinding. I also forgot about morph, does it not work on them?

Speaking of drops, though, is the reason you don't get mystile from Mirage because it's set to drop by chance? I want to know for the next time I go through the dark cave quest so that I'm not wasting my time re-fighting it until I get the item.

Furthermore on the subject of the end of that quest, would you be able to add a debug line for the Midgar key? I didn't have it after the dark cave quest (there was an "Unused" key item that I figured was originally that but correct me if I'm wrong) and I can see it stopping people from completing Cid's sidequest.

Edit: I can confirm that I needed 2000 for the chocobo lure.

Not sure if drop chance makes any difference if there is NO afterfight drop/exp/gil/ap screen...

I'll just wait for a patch.

Jesus Christ, Jormungandr, what the fuck is going on

I'm dealing with the exact same boss that ShayElric was on the last page, and I'm completely updated with the last hotfix.
