I have finished and released the patch! You can download it from my website in the hacks section. The patch cannot be redistributed without my permission.

Enjoy!

Try restoring the char.lgp from your disc and patch it the other way.
 
I have done tht and tried the patch the other way but wheni try the otherway and i load up the game i still have the same cloud char as before not the higher qulity one, plz help me
 
It seems the patch available on my website was a dud. So I've recreated that patch and actually tested it myself and its now available on my website in place of the old patch. Also it seems that I can't release the patch as an IPS patch anymore so everyone will have to use Ficedula's LGP Tools. In addition to the patch I also edited the readme to include instructions on how to use and where to obtain Ficedula's LGP Tools.

Sorry for the inconvenience!

Errr.  Not to be nit-picky, but unless you have written permission from Square (or you actually wrote Final Fantasy VII and have the rights to it) you can't say that you own any modifcation to the game - rather you wrote it or not.  In other words - if someone distributes it besides your self you shouldn't expect much from the courts, or from Square.

You were not even legally allowed to write the patch to begin with under the terms of the license agreement.  (when you entered in to a legally binding agreement not to modify the game when you installed it)  Thus you can not own any modification to the game.

There was actually a case several years ago in which someone wrote a patch for software he did not write.  The company that made the software actually decided he did a good job and used his patch in an official patch.  He took them to court and was ruled against.  The court decided he had no right to it.

Makes sense actually.  If you could own a patch for software you didn't write to begin with (especially when the license agreement says you can't modify the software or distribute modifications) then you could go around patching software you didn't make, then telling the people who actually wrote the software to buy the patch from you before they could make the same modification/fix to their own software.  That wouldn't be very good at all.

Specifically these parts of the license agreement I refer to:

"Your license confers no title or ownership in this Program and should not be constructed as a sale of any rights in this Program."

"User's Responsibilities.  Except as may be permitted by applicable law and this Agreement, you may NOT:
*  Decompile, reverse engineer, disassemble the Program and its components.
*  Modify, copy, reproduce, rent, add or delete components or files, or produce derivative works based upon the Program in whole or in part."

"Export or re-export this Program or any copy or *adaptation* in violation of any applicable laws or regulations."

So legally even *you* are not allowed to distribute this patch, nor were you allowed to write it.

Anyway - as a software author my self I just don't think people should claim rights to things they don't have a right to.  And I get the feeling you (and this site) respect copyright laws your self, so just an FYI for future reference.

I think the mod community for final fantasy is great and unlike any other.  But let's please respect the fact that ultimately Square owns Final Fantasy and any modification per copyright law and the license - not individuals in the community.
 
nah i cant hear that "But the licence agreement ...." its always the same and if you read it completly you can doubt that you are even allowed to install the game so dont care bout that crap
 
I mean no offence to anyone here if they do, But you have to be a sad bastard to read the EULA whenever you install a game....I mean...You buy halo for the PC the day it comes out, you pop the dvd in the drive and bam...You are compulsed to read a 56 page essay about what you are allowed to do with the copy you just forked out 40 quid for.  You're not going to read it. You're just goping to click ok and get installing!

I think I read part of one once, but that was for all of about 5 sentences of redundancy, then I decided I didnt really care, I paid for it, and they wont catch me if I do anything anyhow, even if I was to do anything.

And besides, if we all honestly cared and listened to the EULA, none of us would be here, and Qhimm would probably still be tied up in a court battle with Square to this day. Now arent we all happier that none of us care? :wink:
