[PSX] Final Fantasy VII - Retranslation Project (R06g)

[Green_goblin]

I also got this bug even on the new version but on Disc 2.

Which patch did you apply? I offer 8 different patches.
Sounds weird, all 3 discs share the same content except the movies.
Regards.

Hello! I just started a playthrough and I'm running into a bug. When walking into 7th Heaven for the first time and trying to speak to Biggs at the table, the game will freeze and the last played note in the music will hang. I'm running the latest version of Beacause Canon Addendum with the Chicago font on a real PlayStation using an XStation. Any ideas?

Thank you so much for all your work on this by the way. I've waited for many years for something like this to come along and I've been so excited to play it!

Edit: I tried the Beacause Canon Addendum patch without the Chicago font and was able to talk to Biggs without freezing, but as soon as the dialogue finished and I tried to walk away, it froze then. Then I tried vanilla Beacause with no addendum or Chicago and it didn't freeze at all. I'll stick with this one for now!

Weird, I'll investigate. Thanks.

on the left side is the piano. the square; and L1 or R1 + triangle buttons plays like the cancel sound on menu, plus white flash.
this is a bug, or a normal and broken piano?

It happens as well in original game, so I'm not sure if it's intended as in a very old mansion some things are expected to be broken.

[highlander]

don't know if it's in the pc version.
but yeah... it's a old mansion, i doubt anyone has tuned/played the piano "recently".

[DLPB]

It's 100% intended. The first clue is that the screen flashes. This has been programmed in. The piano has broken keys.

Were there any changes to the script between version 06g and 06j?

I just got the final crater dealt with and made my way to do the chocobo breeding. im on disc 3. when i go to get mime or quadra magic materia, the game goes to a battle swirl and the screen stays black while the music from the very first boss plays. please help as it's virtually impossible to fight weapon without mime at the very least

Hi mike_esquire,

Are you using latest version R06g? In the affirmative, please let me know which version of the patch are you using, as I offer 8 different options.

Different guy, but same problem. And yes, I'm using R06g. Beacause Canon Addendum R06g to be exact (with the Chicago font I think but not hard type). Tried Knight of the Round cave too, same result... But "HP <-> MP/Swap" cave went fine. Playing using latest version of Duckstation.

Edit: Turns out there was a newer version than the one I used... Just had the same name so not obvious to figure out. Seems to be working now though...

Yes, sorry about that. The new version had no changes translationwise, so I had to use same name but different issue date.

[Djungelurban]

Well, atleast I figured it out and atleast if someone else is faced with the same problem there's this thread to answer them.
Overall, it's a great translation and most importantly, it makes the story in game comprehensible finally. I do miss the W-Item glitch something fierce though, makes materia grinding so much more palatable... But I doubt that's something that would ever be "re-broken".

Is Demons Gate buffed in this version? His attacks does way too much damage compared to vanilla.

I'm playing on an Xbox One X running RetroArch with the PCSX ReARMed core. I'm encountering a bug on the R06g build where my emulator crashes every time I finish a certain fight. The fight occurs on Disc 2 at the point where Tifa is in the execution chamber. Cait Sith, in disguise, interviews Scarlet, sprays her with sleeping gas. You fight two Elite Guards as Cait Sith. Every time I finish the fight, in the victory screen, the game freezes, and then RetroArch completely crashes. I've tried it four times now with the same result every time.

I have triggered this bug twice now in the exact same method as described by fleedar. I'm playing the burned image of disc 1 from rom site link removed on a 390001 PS2 through the tonyhax method. Can help with any more info needed. Would really like to be able to play this retranslation on my CRT if fixable.

[Skorm501]

I recently discovered this translation and I really like it so far, except for the mouths. Is there a version without them or a way to turn them off?

I'm facing a different bug.

The entire game is a little off. Slowdowns after saving, music getting garbled after some battles (e.g. after the first reactor's boss), etc.

I'm playing the Beacause Canon Addendum patch without the Chicago font too, but when I get to the 7th Heaven for the first time, instead of Barret standing in front of the door and moving away, he stands besides it, near a light post. When I talk to him, he says his usual "go on" dialog, and tries to move to the door at the same time Cloud does, so he glitches, never gets to the door and the game is locked.

The woman on the upper corner of the screen is also not in the correct location. And there's no girl hitting her.
There's also an NPC at the bottom who's missing.

EDIT: I reproduced it on my PSVita and the PSP, no matter the compression level.

I don't know if that's because I'm loading my existing save from a non-patched version.

See the following gallery for pictures displaying the issue (taken on my PSVita): https://imgur.com/a/YfpriKw

Hey guys, i am on disc 3 right before the final fight and wanted to finish up some side content. When i try to trigger Clouds flashback of Zack in the Shin-ra mansion, the game is always crashing right when im entering the library. I tried it 3 times and the result was always the same. Is this a known bug?

Im playing on a PS1 modded with an ODE (xstation) and i had zero issues up until this point, not a single crash whatsoever.

[Leth99]

Hello, thank you so much for this retranslation project, I am playing it with my friend simultaneously and we're on disc 3 right before the final dungeon. We were trying to get the Quadra materia, but then a boss battle music starts and the game freezes entirely. On page 26 here someone had the same problem, but I don't know what to do to get the materias. I'm on Duckstation for Android and he's on PC. Thanks in advance!
