I wish SE would do something like this as an update for this and the other "remasters" (ports) of the PS1 FF games. I was confused after 7th Heaven didn't load the upscale mod and just launched the regular version but now I can just run it from steam and I'm good to go with what I wanted. Then grab the Direct file version of the nino models and follow the readme.txt (copy the files into the Direct folder in the games directory and delete and copy over the ones from the chibi folder if you want to use them) Run the mod config from the FFVII install location and configure it to your liking Install the mod from the OP, install the update for the mod. I was a bit confused with the installation at the start and how to have both this mod and the chibi character mod but in th eend it ws much easier than I though. It's amazing how much cleaner and smoother the FMVs are and it really makes the backgrounds "just like you remember them". Just played some with this mod and the Nino battle and chibi models and it looks fantastic.
Please, please think twice about playing through this on your own. I know I can’t expect too much from a fan mod, but this has literally wasted my entire weekend now. I could spend the next six months grinding on the cargo ship to get my characters to level 99 and they still wouldn’t be able to pull it off. I assume propagate is triggered whenever you deplete a certain percentage of Jenova’s HP, but there’s no way of killing it before it gets to that point, not with the absurd bump in HP it got over the original version. They stand around and and stare at one another until you exit the game, and there’s absolutely nothing you can do about it. The music keeps going, the characters keep cycling through their animations, but neither friend nor foe gets another turn. It has some ability called “propagate” now, and what it’s intended to do I have no idea, but when it uses it, it invariably “misses” and then nothing happens.
The fight is a great deal harder than the original, but more than that, the programmer got too cute with adding new attacks for it to use. and it’s impossible for me to progress any further. Made it to the Jenova Birth fight on the cargo ship. So I wasted most of my Saturday reinstalling FF7 and going through 7th Heaven to install and play New Threat version 2.something, whatever the current one is.
