I'm a lifelong lover of ff7 and also a student halfway through a degree in post production audio and sound design.  If there's cinematic scenes that need audio put to them i can do that.  I'm happy to work on recreating sound effects too.  can't do any of the coding since 1) i can't and 2) on mac

examples of my work:


and ff7 related sound design i put together quickly for this post (about an hour):


finished uni and only work twice a week.  give me something to do
 
I may end up working with fluffy as we are in the same house together! Hence I may also end up trying to imbed his sounds at some point, but I suppose we can cross that bridge later (and I will be asking for pointers). Hopefully it will just be a case of naming the right filetype and dropping it somewhere.

I sat through the making of the ff7 video and he definately knows his stuff!
 
Wow loving those sound effects best so far! :D

well i'm halfway through the FMV of Sapphire Weapon attacking Junon.  I'll upload it for you to watch now.

keep in mind that i haven't actually mixed it at all yet.  only creative mixing, no corrective/placement mixing.  It's still very rough mix wise.  The second half still isn't complete.  the artillery barrage needs work and so does all following stuff.
 
Amazing work man! I'd prefer to listen to the sword sound more like a slash with a "zing" finish sound in the end if this is possible...

yeah i get what you mean.  i'll work on it soon.  I have to leave for work very soon though so i'll look at it when i get back tonight maybe if i have the time
 
I was thinking about the request for a zing in the buster sword animation, This would be good, but should be saved for crit hits like the original in my opinion.

Also, would it be worth fluffy building different sounds for the same effect? Can 7th heaven or a program like it mix up the sounds so that you don't get the same effect every time? or at least so that different enemies receive hits differently (Metal monsters would make a different sound to fleshy monsters)

Could be generating you a great deal of work just there mate!

It will need a new tool for that, something similar like ff7music but for sounds. 7th Heaven can't  randomly change the sound.

It would be great if a script randomly chose hit sounds or chose them dependant on enemy type
 
This said, if anyone wants specific Sfx or attack sounds. Just tell me and include a video on YouTube or whatever to show my which sound you want. Or describe it (I.e clouds attack and crit hit). Try include any specifics or preferences or a particular sound that you want it to be like. Pm me
 

right.  all i'm going to do until there's a specific chain/plan in who's doing what/what i'm doing or what's needed.  it's an update, not finished, don't see any point in working more on this until i know what section of the game i'm needed to actually work on.  enjoy
 
Granted i am just one voice, But i can give you some direction where your wonderful skills could be used:

* Element sound effects are terrible, Fire is choppy 8-bit garbage, Thunder is.. questionable at best, Ice isn't so bad, But i'd love to see what you could do to it.

* Obviously the battle effects, specifically bullets and explosions, are dated.

just with those I'd think you'd be busy for a while, Than again, you seem well versed in your craft. So you'll probably have them done in a day haha. Now i'm not sure if you wanted to be provided the sounds or not, You seemed to do a great job picking them yourself. So i left it at that :P
