So I made it to disc 3, I tried digging this up in the spot where the internet says it would normally be, I get S-Mine 100% of the time, no Bahamut Zero. Doesn't look like any of the other spots are active either, I'll keep digging but looks like it is busted, messing up that large materia mission has really screwed me. No renew or Bahamut Zero ):
Maybe a memory thing, but it'll be hard to guess; if it does occur again, get a copy of your APP.log which should be in the FF7 folder (or FFNx.log) and that might be able to pinpoint it.
I'll check into the field script again; I can see it listed within there but I'll check the flag.
This had the same issue as Jersey and one of the Death Dealers, the AI in pre-battle was a bit messed up when inserting the new hard mode properties. I've fixed it up and it'll be part of the patch tonight.
It worked! Thanks!
Zenogias Plate is by buying the Costa villa and then acquired from the basement. 7778 Needles I think can be stolen, dropped, or Morphed. For the Steal, try having a Sneak Glove equipped for it (from Wall Market, guy who sells you batteries early on). Morph should be done using Yuffie's Conformer weapon if you have it.It worked! Thanks!
Another question I can't find the things that are needed for the masamune. I have the; murasame and moonstone. But really don't know where to find the zenogias plate and 7778 needles. I tried steeling from cactuars but no luck
Sorry, the version number wasn't changed on the pastebin that the catalog uses to pull IROs through. It should download it now once it's gotten past cache. If it doesn't update right away, then the IRO can be downloaded from the first post on this thread and imported.
Nah, it was just gonna be a joke link that appears when you beat the game on hard (without using the toggle) and without sources but all that's inside is an image from some old ceefax thing we used to have in the 90s called Bamboozle. But then I think wdx did it and the link had some missing characters because some of the characters in the link aren't valid for the game. I'll remove the text, I forgot all about it.
underscore was the problem char. was done with disabling the exp as well to see if the txt changed (which it didnt), on that side, curious to why both tifa/barret are lvl8 after the first fight (which can't run away from) rest of the party members are lvl7 :>
When a party member joins for the first time they have their level initialised against the current average of all currently acquired characters. The kernel has a value that modifies this average, so the joining character will have the average level +/- this modifier. So if Cloud is Lv.7 and the only character, the average is Lv.7 and so when Barret joins with a modifier of +1 he starts as Lv.8.
Thanks! Gonna try again! ???
The save file should be fine so long as it was made on a 2.0 build. Are you on the latest version, 2.099? One of the fixes made recently was for this issue.
I jumped in and seems to be sitting at Under Junon. Not really sure what advice I can give for a run like that.
No i'm pretty sure I'm on 2.097. I'll get 2.099 and give it a shot.
there are some really quick ways of obtaining gil at most points within the game, dex will help a bit. between steals morphing and drops gil shouldln't really be much of an issue.
Yeah, you might be right. The other elements of the game would need to be adjusted and tweaked to properly bring the most out of that change. I think enemy level increases in hard mode as well which is why steal rate is less than usual, and clashes with the gil thing.
Dex doesn't affect the Steal rate; I used to think this too and I reckon the reason is that Steal Materia in vanilla comes with a +2 Dexterity bonus which I guess implies this stat governs the action, but like Manipulate it's completely based on User's Level and Target's Level (with the item's 'chance' value factored in).
