i for 1 do not agree with this rule, nor with square being stingy for upgrading their games and whatnot, but there's nuttin that could be done about it. for the most part, i certainly cant do anything about it thats for sure, but i guess if it comes down to this, then oh well. i enjoyed upgrading my ff7 (and recently upgrading ff8 as well) (and i own both copies, not torrents) while i had the chance and i thank each and every 1 of u for making all these patches/mods/tweaks/etc and showing us that any1 could do it, just takes time and effort just like these hard workers that posted screenshots of their progress and for us to be like "oooo" and "aaaa" and "wow!" cuz thats mostly wut i did, observe and thank, implement and feedback, thats wut its all about in forums such as these but its a shame tho that this has to end in these forums, but a rule is a rule and its worse to fight it cuz it'll only piss more ppl off and attract more atttention... sorry guys, we tried, eventually each and every 1 of us knew this was going to happen.
 
Lol are you guys like emotional now? Drama speech? Sorry for finding this entertaining... :lol: And Amno bandito, I have noticed your avatar changes every 5 minute or so. How come?

No. I'm wondering how much your reading comprehension is lacking, if you truly addressed your post at me.

It changes every time you reload it. Because it can.
 
Lol ammo bandito, your avatar that i saw at the timei  read that last post could not be more perfect.

but more to the point i dont think i read anything that would make el ammo bandito against this new set of rules, let alone anything else you accused him of.
 
I'm detecting a high degree of drama in this thread. Can you guys cut it out please? If not I'll lock this and consider the discussion over.
 
Yeah but you were against it, anyway how do you make your avatar change every 5 min? .gif??

i'd like to do that, but with the avatars of all the ff7 characters :)
 
@drfeelgud88: Good idea!

And yes, there is too much drama in this thread.

There's no drama, only one guy flamebaiting others.
I thought you're the mod who needs to keep this clean?  :wink:

Anyway,
rule is rule....

I think I have to put my weight being Halkun on this one.
Cross platform hacking and importing with other games is running the risk of closing these forums down.
I wouldn't like to see such a active and vibrant community shutdown after more than a decade dedicated to the cause that is FF7/8.

I suggest you do a google search for "rotating avatar"; it seems that it's not too hard to do. (making a rotating avatar, that is)

I think that I might get the same response that you gave to El Ammo earlier, but...

The incident a couple of months ago that caused so much controversy could have been dealt with very easily and with no-one leaving or getting banned if a mod had stepped in before things got too ugly.

I'm rather surprised that the rule had to be against even discussing how to rip and port models, rather than simply a rule against posting the ported model files. Not that I particularly care, since the only model-replacing mods I've ever used were the PRP and the mod to use characters' battle models in the field. Nonetheless, while I think the new rule may be a little harsher than necessary, I'm perfectly happy to stand by it. Better safe than sorry when dealing with SE lawyers.
 
I'm with halkun on this

If anythink i have or helped do need to be changed just say and it will be done!
 
I'm going to show you two reasons why ripping models from CC is a bad idea.

As you can tell the models not only are not made for ff7, they are ugly when they are placed on armatures that are not theirs. This does not make the game look "pretty" at all and in fact makes it even more hideous.

You can't force others to think the same as you =/
There are people that prefer chibis, people who prefer tall chars.
Everyone's different.

Edit:
+ there are ways to fill holes and fix animations  :wink:
