Ok lets go, first of all sorry for the dumb issue =/
i used the ffviii_demaster_manager to unpack the files, creating the demaster folders and stuff.
replaced all the textures from the list.
I know that you cant hit again the "re-unpack" button, so how can i make the game load the textures?

oh im starting to play the remastered now, but i have the steam version already modded, so i only need the deling program to put all the mods i made on the remastered too right? (monsters, magics)
And i have the DLL file to make you draw 1 magic to get 100 already and will be always 100 for the whole game, can it be used too on the remastered?

btw: AWESOME work man!
 
Hey, hope all is well -  so it has been about a year since I last checked in here. Any update on a release of Angelwing here, or will it only be available on the patreon?
 
Hey there! Haven't seen any updates later, even on McIndus twitter. I'm saving my first FFVIII Remastered playthrough to be played with the Lunatic Pandora mod xD
Hope to see some news soon!

Thank you, Mcindus! For this mod progress, but even though I installed everything, I still see some problematic textures.
For example: The textures effects of attacks, or GFs, it’s too pixel. And in world map, after installed Horizon mod, everything look great, but the textures of Balamb Garden, or Ragnarok is not right, the same thing, too pixel.

 Characters cannot blink like the original game ( In battle or when they talk in background).When squall back to his room, I see him, and he never blink, like mannequin.

Excuse me but why the Angelwing mod for FF8 not remastered is free and not Angelwing Ultima for FF8 Remastered ?

It seems we have to pay on McIndus patreon for having Angelwing Ultima
 
at the beginning it was said that all the mods were going to be public and free after a few weeks after testing the final ultimate version etc but it must have been several months of it maybe even 1 or 2 years... most of the modders let fall qhimm to devote himself only to their discord maybe there is another link on the mcindus discord, I have no idea. It's like when he told me that the French triple triad mod for the 2013 version would be released in a few days and it's been years of this and still nothing. https://www.ff7catalog.com/posts/204311/    there is no news on his patreon since August 28, 2022.

Does anyone know how to remove the black side bands? I use 1440p monitor
 
This project became a private business at this point. I'm sorry to say but only FF7 and FF9 modders deserve special praise for their work <3
 
It's been almost 5 years jeez...

Give it 5 more we might see the Public Beta
 
Really wished the OP didn't turn tail and flee by suckering people into paying Patreon for a project that'll never be completed


no offense, but going radio silent on a project like this for almost two years is a douche move
 
Hey guys. So it's my fault for not reading every reply here before going crazy following Vestik Gaming's YT video to install every mod here for the remaster. I am running into the same bug mentioned during prison break. The bug is a consistent crash to desktop, essentially stopping my playthrough. Clearly this is an unfinished mod project that you cannot play through the whole game using.

There is a bug, during the prison break sequence, right after you rescued Zell after being chased. Irvine's head is missing and the first time Squalls textures were a mess then the game crashed. Second time, the game crashed right after Irvine appears and saves the day.

Hi. Thanks for the great post. I'm having an issue. When I install mods with zzz, it works great. But when I install mods with Demaster, they don't seem to work. It's like the new launcher wasn't reading the files I put in the DEMASTER_EXP folder but I've followed all the steps described in YouTube installation tutorials. Do you know how to fix this? I'm using the latest Steam version on a Windows laptop and the Steam Deck.
 
I followed all step by step, but when i launch the game, nothing has changed, is there a new version of Demaster ? maybe because Steam patch 1.0.3, the mod not working
