Installation


Character Overhaul Seven - Steam Release | ChaOS - SR image 11

This is kinda different from the installation method you see here on Steam. There are two reasons for that reason one - sharing game files is illegal. While I haven't seen this in practice, it would be in theory possible to build a game from all the loose files. The other reason is that it works as a patch to the game files which means that it can be used along with other mods and a few things can be made optional.

Installation

Extract the files with 7zip[www.7-zip.org] to any place you want (keep in mind that since windows 7 some folders have an extra write protection). I would suggest the desktop but it's up to you. It will create a folder with some sub folders, an exe and a batch file.

Now locate where these files are in your FF7 root folder and copy and paste them in 0_LGP_In:

battle.lgp

char.lgp

chocobo.lgp*

flevel.lgp*

high-us.lgp*

world_us.lgp* Run the batch file lgp_edit.bat and press p and hit Enter. Close the cmd when finished.

Place the files from 0_LGP_Out back from where you have grabbed them*If you use a non English version, than you have to copy the files for your languages. The new bat does know them and will patch them. This counts for Frensh, German and Spanish.

That's it.

Battle scenes

Download the files from this site:

http://forums.qhimm.com/index.php?topic=11961.msg255847#msg255847

Extract it with winrar or 7.zip

Copy the files from inside the folder to the battle.lgp folder

Run the bat file and press 'p' to patch the files

You can also use this mod here from Steam

http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1329123155

You simply copy and paste its content from Battle_Add to the same named folder in ChaOS.

Cloud without sword on back

If you don't like the sword equiped on Cloud's back, then you can install this. Simply drag the content into the ChaOS folder and overwrite the files when ask.

Known Issues

This is an early built of my mod so keep in mind that there can be bugs I haven't noticed yet.

Issue I can't solve

the snowboard minigame use the chibi models

the shadow in battle looks awkward (I think its kage.dat in the battle folder but I can't edit it to use a real texture)

the models do look very tiny in some cases*

the blink of the eyes does look strange* solved

*I could fix this but this needs editing of the flevel.lgp which would make the mode less useful as a universal replacer. Maybe I make an extra installation tutorial for the closed eye texture in the future.
