So after installing ESUI Controller Addon i click on Auto sort and it duplicates it self in the mod list and shuts off other mods

Felagrog · Mar 14, 2020

Hello,

I recently decided to get back to FF7. I saw this mod, it looks great. The devs in the community are doing a terrific job.

Is there anything special I need to do in order to get this mod working?

I installed the game (from the original discs), then installed 7th Heaven (ver 2.0.3.406), and then downloaded this mod via 7th Heaven.

So far it is the only Mod I have installed, however, for whatever reason it is not applying.

I excluded ff7.exe and 7th Heaven.exe in Windows Defender.

Any assistance is appreciated.

I've put log files and screen shots below (nothing is jumping out at me, but maybe someone else will see something). Let me know if there is something else needed to help troubleshoot.

That is very odd, and I dont know whats going on when autosort is used, I will reach out to unab0mb to try and figure this out.

Chrysalis · Mar 14, 2020

Ok Flash0429, please do this to resolve this problem.

Remove the mod from 7h, using the trashcan icon, if you have to, do this for each duplicate as well.
Close down 7h, and relaunch it, very important this step.
Check there is no instances of it in the library (my mods)
Download it again from the catalog, the problem should then be solved.

Chrysalis · Mar 14, 2020

Felagrog, your textures are failing to load, and you running the game from a protected folder, I suggest you move it to a folder that doesnt have the game inside "program files". Then reconfigure 7h to point to the new folder, and it should work properly then.

That seems to have resolved it. Thanks.

That worked perfectly thank you!! Not sure why i didnt think to restart before lol

Flash0429 · Mar 16, 2020

ok so upon going to Golden Saucer and attempting to purchase a ticket the dialogue box breaks it it only shows one line of text all the way up to purchase then after purchase completely freezes on the final dialogue it only does this when the ESUI Controller Addon is Active and for both options in the mod

here is a clip from my stream of it happening

https://clips.twitch.tv/TenuousSpotlessCakeSmoocherZ

Chrysalis · Mar 16, 2020

Ok thanks for the report.

Flash0429 · Mar 16, 2020

No worries Thank YOU for the great work. I'm goin to keep the mod on incase it happens anywhere else on my run and ill let you know

Kip · Mar 17, 2020

Hi

Loving the mod, just starting to get back into FF7 again, want to replay it before the remake lands so thought I'd check some mods out as I've never tried modding FF7 before. Signed up to share this strange bug, seems to only happen when playing anything above 720p resolution either fullscreen or window mode. The bug happens with Item and Magic commands as well.

Also had a bugged dialogue box with the guy at the bottom of the pillar in sector 7 but silly me didn't screen shot that and have already saved past that point.

I'm using 7th Heaven 2.0 to install everything (except Remako FMVs and PS1 music which I installed manually). I only have various qhimm's community mods active plus the Enchanced UI + Controller Addon and Remako menu avatars. If I knew how to supply a log of some sort I would but this is all very new to me and I can't seem to find anything.

Chrysalis · Mar 17, 2020

what is the exact resolution been used please, many people play above that resolution so its not a generic 720+ thing.

Although the OP is currently out of date, I will still say I only support resolutions that maintain the same AR as the original game and ideally multiples of 640x480.

Kip · Mar 17, 2020

Thank you for getting back to me.

Turns out I got it slightly wrong, I apologise. So 1280x720 doesn't work, 1280x960 does work which ties in with the whole multiples of 640x480 resolution thing you've mentioned. I must have just got mixed up somewhere.

The max display resolution available to me is 1920x1080 so haven't tried anything above that. 1400x1050 and 1440x1080 are both broken the same as my screenshot. When you say multiples, does that multiplier need to be an integer for your mod? eg. 640x480 * 2 is okay but 640x480 * 2.25 isn't?

I don't mind being locked to 1280x960, it is still much better looking than the original.

I also tried disabling all other mods and that made no difference so what you have suggested is probably correct for the glitch I saw in the screenshot above. However, even playing at 1280x960 yields some broken text boxes (with other mods enabled). Along with the guy at the bottom of the pillar, Cloud's materia tutorial had some glitches and a dialogue choice between Cloud and Tifa in the bar shortly before the next reactor mission.

I could try playing through those parts again with only your mod at 1280x960 and see what happens?

Sorry for double post, don't have access to edit function yet.

I went ahead and replayed from the start with this:

Code: [Select]

Code:

7th Heaven Version: 2.0.3.406# ESUI Controller Addon ID: 135478f5-b53f-4960-b411-b93370dc45da Version: 1.02 Is Active: True "Controller Button Type"  (controls)   = "Controller Reversed A/B X/O Buttons"  (2)       # Enhanced Stock UI-rel2 ID: 2b49d831-6556-41df-9ddb-d1a6e937f548 Version: 2.23 Is Active: True "Enhanced Stock"                     (enhanced)        = "Enhanced Stock - On"                (1)        "Field Dialog Style"                 (fds)             = "Menu Overhaul"                      (1)        "All Status Visible"                 (status)          = True                                 (1)        "Items + Materia Icons"              (items_materia)   = "Standard Items + Standard Materia"  (1)        "UI Bar Thickness"                   (bars)            = "Thinner Bars"                       (1)        "Font Brightness"                    (fonts)           = "Gradient Fonts"                     (1)        "Battle View"                        (battleview)      = "Optimized UI v2"                    (3)        "Minimalistic No Battle Boxes View"  (nbb)             = True                                 (1)        "Help Box Transparency"              (hbb)             = "No Box, Text Only"                  (1)        "Controller Icons"                   (controller)      = "PSX Icons"                          (2)        "EXP Bar Toggle"                     (nt)              = "Exp Bars Enabled"                   (0)

And got this:

Only the text before the shot of the pillar are like this, afterwards the text box is drawn correctly.

Cloud Hetfield · Mar 19, 2020

Great Work!!! In the 7th Heaven, i´ts possible change the buttons in psx layout? Im my control in the game, X is in O, Triangle is in square, and i wish to correct this. Help please.

Chrysalis · Mar 19, 2020

Update rolled out for both mods.

The misordered psx controls on config screen was known about for a few days, but since i dont have a psx controller to hand I couldn't really test it, but should now be ok. This did not affect actual controls in the game or in dialog boxes, it was cosmetic on the config screen only. I did not version bump the mod, so delete the ESUI mod in 7h, and redownload it, should then get the fix.

The issues reported with the dialog boxes not drawing properly in gold saucer and midgar section 7, should now be fixed. ESUI controller addon, I did bump the version so can just update it normally (after catalog is updated). You can grab before the catalog see's the new version by deleting the mod and redownloading it.

Cloud Hetfield · Mar 19, 2020

I'do this and dind't work, my controler it's not the psx original, it´s a generic multilaser with the psx layout. Has some way to configure this?

Chrysalis · Mar 19, 2020

If its got a different button mapping to psx in its programming, then I dont know, this is really just to support native psx and xbox controllers.
