Difficulty Mods

[Varesz]

Greetings from Germany,

i finished my first Playthrough today (overdue since childhood ^^) and after that, i saw a mod list for this game. Awesome stuff there. Really amazing. Enough to motivate me for another Playthrough. There's only one thing i missed in this list:

Something to make the enemys harder. More HP, more Damage, faster Attacks, larger Squad size for enemys and so on. Is there anything out there or any way to make this possible?

No Replys so far. How sad. The Only "difficulty mod" i found (or better to say) i managed to work with all the other Mods for the Steam Version is this here:

But it's not really the difficulty i was looking for.

There are some other mods out there.

Even a enemy editor: http://forums.qhimm.com/index.php?topic=8741.0

But unfortunately not compatible with the Steam Version. Does anyone know something better or can explain a way to modify the enemys?

My Mistake. I just figured out, that this Mod http://forums.qhimm.com/index.php?topic=11026.0 truly works with the Steam Version. But (quote):

For Steam version, you have to do these 3 steps:
1. Copy files battle.fl, battle.fi & battle.fs from FINAL FANTASY VIII\Data\lang-en\ to the folder above: FINAL FANTASY VIII\Data\
2. Install hardcore patch.
3. Copy files again to FINAL FANTASY VIII\Data\lang-en\ (overwrite).

This Mod http://forums.qhimm.com/index.php?topic=15354.0 works perfectly well combined with this mod: http://forums.qhimm.com/index.php?topic=11026.0

I started a new game and my full HP party just got a one hit instant kill by Dinosaurs Tail attack. Looks very promising now. At least enough not to get bored. Enjoy the game.

Well it's not like i created something on my own. I just gathered some informations together. But thank you very much. ^^

Sadly, the only mod that I know of that does this is "Requiem" and it's incompatible with the Steam version.
