First of all hermoor, we are scaling it 4 times, not 10, and thats a big deal. next, we arnt just upscaling them... that would be pointless... and we'd be nearly done everything by now. We are updating, smoothing, and in some cases redrawing the spells by hand. If you cant tell the difference, well i dont know what resolution you play at, (or none i dont think you even have ff7 pc) or if you need to get your eyes checked, because there is obvious improvement. If your not interested fine, feel free to find something more interesting, but your criticism is in no way constructive, and bordering offensive. So either give suggestions or say nothing because saying our project does nothing and is useless is in turn, also useless.
 
actually i can tell a difference... the colors have quite a big variation, the big one is a lot darker, check his collar :P
 
it looks like you plopped a blur filter of the whole thing. anyhow, this isnt the place for this discussion. if u truly wish to continue, msn me
 
here look at this hermoor, maybe after watching this vid you'll go have fun playing with them yourself. looks better than the original to me.
 
This whole 'Discussion' started because hermoor didn't see the improvement made to fire3 in the youtube video (youtube isn't know for 'good' resolution in its videos, even at High Quality), he has also stated he hasn't got the pc version installed so how can he know what it's like in game? Who cares if he can't see a difference, I CAN, and alot of other people CAN, that is what matters! The lag that this mod creates is like 1/2 a second on a modern computer, it's not noticeable, so can everyone stop this pointless back and forth posting plz, lets get some more screen shots and videos of the actual mod up!

Hello, Im having the same problem romeo14 used to have in page 46, my log file ends exactly like him but all the lgp files end the same. Do I need a extra plugin or software to make LPG+UNLGP work? I have tha latest 0.5b

Thanks
 
Download This

Then Download This

Then Re-download This

Put the new patch.bat, and the new LGP and UNLGP into the GUI folder then put your LGP files into GUI folder and run the patch

p.s. Just a though, we should ask Aali's permission to include his LGP Tool in the download....

Idk if i read it in this thread or another but somone said bolt1 went horizontal instead of vertical did u ever fix that problem

That was never a problem. That person messed up when installing.
You see no difference, therefore it's a waste? Nice to know.

There is no noticeable difference between the 1024x1024 and the old 112x112? low res texture. No one who would play the original and then install this mod version would even notice that the texture is high res. You know why that is? Because you took the small 112x112 texture and sized it up about 10 times. It will have the same quality but be much bigger and take away a lot of the memory. And I tbh I can't see a lot of difference if you use fractals or whatever it is?? Ask someone that is not working on this mod or is a fan boy of Final Fantasy VII, ask them if they can see the difference. The answer is no they can't...the only way they could notice the difference, is if it said so in the Read Me. Or if it starts lagging a lot...
well, IMHO, if the images CAN be smaller without any noticable loss of quality then they might as well be smaller

If you are gonna use the original texture, 512x512 is maximum...but again you won't notice the difference if you don't do some real photoshopping to the textures. >_>
If there's no loss in quality, then it's OK. I'm just worried about quality being compromised for the sake of space.

Lol? quality...it looks like the original.
BTW, with your current attitude, it might actually be good for you to take a break. Come back when you're ready to make some useful posts again.
Click to expand...
Lol? My attitude has just changed, this is getting fun again...because of your replies. And I know it's hard when people criticize your "work", and say how it really is. Just something you have to live with you know...and I don't think my post was such a waste. It actually started a discussion on what this mod is actually improving...lol..

Fine. You dont think it is improving anything? Dont worry, you wont have to see another release.

Thanks, i had excatly the same downloads up there, even the new batch you gave last time. Anyway i downloaded all again and still givin same exactly size lgp's  :-(
 
i thought SL said that the lgps shouldnt change in size, and you have the mods texture folder in the texture folder of your FF7 game? And do you have the custom driver installed?

Please tell me you didn't just quit. That would make my already bad day worse.....

LGP's should be the same size as the originals.
Check your using custom graphics driver correctly, if you are, check that the texture folder from the download is in ff7 directory.

Make sure you are putting the modded lgp's and the seffect1.tex back where they belong and replacing the originals

If you've done all this, then I'm not sure what the problem is  :cry:

hey guys lets just calm down and quit the criticism sl1982 alot of us see the difference in your work and really appreciate all your hard work. Idk ppl are criticizing if the dont even have the game but just keep up the good work we really appreciate it
 
There will always be haters... You can make a mod that makes tifa come out of the PC, give you a bj, and swallow, and ppl would still hate.
Best way to deal with it is to either ignore the haters, or make them feel dumb :evil:

LOL helll yeah aint that the truth
 
I'm not sure if you're aware of this bug but silence seems to have that same weird look as the menu icons before they were redone.
Same with the ZzZ... when asleep in battle.

Obviously for the same reasons the menu items looked strange.
So I know it's on your to-do list and just ignore this post. :-D

I don't like Tifa

XD


Sorry I had to... (even if it's true)

Anyway, you all can help out a lot with the testing by editing out the problem images one at a time and see which one actually has an effect...

what I mean is, open up the files until you find one with a 'Silence' symbol on it... edit the symbol out of that one image and see if it effects the game... if not, look for another image with the symbol....
 when you find one that makes the symbol change, post the name of that file and we can edit it and release the fix...


I think if you all do this when you have a problem, the troubleshooting may go faster in the long run...


Be sure to back up your modfiles though, on the off chance some other part of the mod stops working.

Silence and sleep have been fixed and may be in the next release (if i do one). I am doing this for my self foremost and decided it would be good to release to the community. Now im wondering if it is worth the aggrivation.

Honestly, I think it is a good thing that you are working up here (and the rest of Team Avalanche). And the fact that YOU decided to make this public, is even better. titeguy3 is right, there will always be haterz no matter what. If you were to quit now, then you will be doing EXACTLY what the haterz want you to do. Personally, I like to prove people wrong, no, I LOVE to prove people wrong. You should have the same perspective as me because honestly, look, at how many replies/views this thread has got. It's one of the top list of threads to keep an eye out for since... the APZ project. And this thread hasn't been around for more than a month! You should be proud of yourself (and the rest of Team Avalanche).
