____ If you are a real badass, nows your ____
chance to show off your skills =)
As few of you may know, Final Fantasy 7 for PC embraced TrueMotion 2.0 in its FMV sequences. I had always wandered if the game would load Divx or XviD formatted files instead of the TM20s - provided the codecs were installed. Sure enough, the game loaded the movies with ease when I redid the entire first disc's FMVs in DivX 3.11. My goal was to shrink the files as small as possible. I was also driven to do this when I found out that 200mbs of game files are identical on all 3 discs! (down to the last byte!) not to mention about 100 in identical movies. I have combined all 3 discs' file structures for the game to play all the way through without ever needing to change discs! With all but 2 FMV sequences converted to DivX, something is wrong with 2 of the TrueMotions. Nothing will load these 2 files for conversion no matter what I do. Tmpgenc, Vidomi, I have tried all of the fixing software Divx-Digest has to offer, Blaze Media, ect ect...nothing. I thought to myself that these 2 files were AVI files unique to FF7 that needed support from the games software to run but later found out, AVIpreview ran them fine..... Too bad I could care less about just watching them =). I need something to encode these suckers and Ive done everything I possibly can. If anyone has any suggestions on fixing buggy TrueMotion AVIs, please help my cause in some form or another. If you want to take a whack at these two bastard files yourselves, msg me (contact info at top) and ill get you a copy post haste. PS. If any Final Fantasy fans want to help distribute my release, id be more than happy to take names and upload the Final Release to anyone who would appreciate my efforts. (And yes, I'm sure I could leave them in their current format but I'm striving for a 100% DivX set so nobody ever has to install that horrible TrueMotion codec on their computers again + Im a perfectionist)
