Remako questions

➤ For which platform is this mod?

This only works for the PC version of the mod (1998 CD release, 2012 Square Enix Store, and 2013 Steam release). This does not work on the iOS, Android, Switch, PS4 or Xbox One versions.\

➤ Does this mod make the game widescreen (16:9)

No, this is sadly not possible. It's still the original 4:3 ratio, with the occasional black bar at the bottom.

➤ I think I spotted a bug/glitch

Please go to the contact page and let me know about the bug/glitch. Some bugs are known however and don't need further reporting:
  • The gondola in the Golden Saucer looks weird. This is a bug of Aali's custom driver, which is needed for this mod.
  • Some effects on some screens aren't filtered to avoid in-game animation bugs. Examples include the glow in Mt. Nibel and the waterfall behind Aeris' house.

7th Heaven questions

Starting with version 2.0 the 7th Heaven mod manager is a lot easier to use, as is the method used to get FF7 to be modded. I used to have a lot of questions and answers here that were very necessary to have when using 7th Heaven 1.53. But with 2.0 these answers to issues are outdated or flat-out don't happen anymore. If you want to find the 1.53 FAQ I made for using 7th Heaven, click this link.

I'm not an expert on any of 7th Heaven 2.0s issues (if there are any). So if you do have an issue, I suggest you check out the official 7th Heaven thread and start from there. There are a lot of great folks over on those forums and most questions will have already been answered there.

I'm playing with gigapixel AI currently, and I'm curious to know why you chose to go with 4x instead of 6x? Was the final image quality better, or was it a matter of file size?

After doing all the steps, game launches from steam with no mods installed.

I can get the game to run but the screen is on the bottom left corner. I had to compatibility for ff7.exe to run in 640x480 to get it to run but now i have this issue. What else can I do?
I have already played with all the settings in the config settings for 7th Heaven but no luck.

Nevermind I got it to work however the mod does not seem to be working. Its not showing the HD textures.

Lol ok well I got that issue fixed too. I just unpacked the .iro files to the texture folder and it worked. Funny enough the d-pad on my ps4 controller works with the game now too.

I seem to be having issues with the (char field minigame) pre-rendered background portion of the mod. When I start the game I get an error message about the config file and how the "minigame frame limiter" could not be parsed. I am not sure if this is relevant but after this the game seems to work fine, the FMVs are polished, the menus are crisper and the battle pre-rendered backgrounds are too. However the out of combat pre-rendered backgrounds are unchanged. Does anyone have any info regarding this?

Can you play in another language?

Followed all the steps perfectly and I'm still not getting HD textures. Even tried to unpack the iro files into the texture folder like the other guy did and it's still not working.

Everyone, please try out updated install guide:
https://captrobau.blogspot.com/p/install-guide-ff7-mod-manager.html

It uses 7th Heaven 2.0 and works a lot better.

Hi,

I've spent a few days now trying to get this installed, and while I think the battle textures are working, the original backgrounds are showing up on both the train scene and the scene immediately after (When Cloud steps out of the arch, where Avalanche is waiting at the top of the screen)

After a lot of troubleshooting, I realized that the the Field folder is completely empty, and the Minigames one is no longer included in the download. I have downloaded both Remako HD Graphics Mod v1.0 - Complete Download (5.77 GB) ~ Recommended and Remako HD Graphics Mod v1.0 - Separate HD Field Textures Download (3.89 GB) and both have empty Field folders, and no Minigames folders. The movies work and look great, and Battle, World, Char, and Menu all contain files.

Is it possible to integrate the mod to the field lgp file so I won't need 7th Heaven

Thanks for the info on this mod. Never played Final Fantasy but I know Remako mod improves the quality of battle textures, world textures and cutscenes, as well as the gorgeous pre-rendered backgrounds of Final Fantasy 7. Like the growing number of graphic mods, Remako uses an AI-upscaling algorithm to transform, in particular AI Gigapixel. Programs such as Gigapixel and ESRGAN use AI to intelligently scale images. Algorithms use information learned during image analysis to expand images without losing detail or blurring. I gathered this information from posts on Instagram, in which famous gamers review this game and mods for it. I found there three dozen posts about this mod and noticed that they all had 10 thousand likes! I am sure that in order to achieve such indicators, their authors have repeatedly used the services of https://soclikes.com/buy-instagram-likes to boost likes.
