There is a way, converting the game to the old version

also, the game being cracked means you can just pirate it.
 
Someone already cracked the launcher...well, that was quick :-o  Can't say as I blame them.  I figure if you legally own the game, why should anyone care what you do with it?  With the music replacement patch, it makes it all the more better.

Too bad there's no way to force the game to NOT use cloud saves or at least remove the prompt.

Cracked does not mean it can be modded.


You should blame them....immensely! You are correct in that they can do what they want with their own legal copy, but once that crack is released publicly, then it is no longer justifiable work. Prior to this re-release, it was offered in a broken state for near $100 on Amazon or Ebay, so why are people so cheap as to avoid spending $10 on a near flawless version? Just don't eat dinner one night and it's already paid off....or, I dunno, go work a job for half-an-hour. It's one of the greatest RPG's ever, so it's worth it  :|

even the people who buy the game crack it afterwards to get rid of secuROM
and the cracked re-release can be converted and modded fine from what I hear in IRC
at least I think it does. nobody ever comes back to ask me why it doesnt work when I link them to the converter
( the forum doesn't support piracy, I can do in IRC whatever I want )

NO, I didn't crack it, I was pointing out that some games have overly restrictive DRM and as a result, legit customers such as myself suffer when said games require constant internet connections to play the game (take UPlay for instance), but that's another story. I didn't have to pay for this since Square Enix's gaffe with the accidental premature release on their online store. Those who bought it then couldn't activate it, so they allowed those customers to download it for free, AND they gave us a refund (which they really didn't have to do). Ten dollars isn't a big deal to me.
 
I want to mod the achievements and add the custom ones posted here :P

I came here hoping for something like this.
Things like:
-Beat Emerald Weapon without the underwater materia
-Go out on a date with Barret
-Find all the Turtle's Paradise ads.
 
Hmmm that FMV is very good indeed!  Is that the actual video that comes with the game or has it been edited? I am not familiar with ENB?
 
ALLready first ENB mods(dx9) for this re-release are on the web :

That looks pretty cool, maybe just a tad too dark. Link to the mod?
Any chance for something like this with Aali's driver?

ENB only affects the renderer. It might do some postprocessing on the video in realtime, but it wouldn't actually replace any assets at all.

That being said, ENB really shines with games like Grand Theft Auto IV; games that already have a reasonably strong engine and good graphics, but could afford to have better lighting. While it will technically do SOMETHING to FF7, it won't operate as intended since almost everything is prerendered. It'll only have its intended effect on 3D objects, and it still won't work as well as something with a whole bunch of light sources and lighting effects.
 
And just in case you think that's a misleading link, it's on their main site as well.
 
Being nice and spoon-feeding new people everything is a difference.
 
Well i"m not familier with Aali's driver , all i know is that enb-modding only works with dx9.

i"ve also contacted the developer of this mod to help with creating self reflections and selfshadows , but he"S not interested.

anyway , with trial and error i"m gonna update my enb-config.

here"S the link (same mod i used for DarkSiders 2 enhancements) :



place all files in same map as executable to start ff7 and turn mod off/on with shift-f12.

btw. just delete all files from the enb map to get rid of it
 
Late coming into the topic but that's cuz i was checking out youtube vids and trailers of the re-release. The graphics look a little more "clearer" or should i say, "stable"? but nothing more. I'd prefer my Win 95 cds along with the great work by people in qhimm than spend $9.99(apparently a limited offer) for the rerelease....though it may be easier to run...
 
I would spend 9.99 for people at qhimm though if it was something official...
