I'm not sure if this would help any of you ffvii lovers but here:

It is actually possible to cross the swamp without bieng caught by the swamp snake, just run when it's going away from you towards the other corner, don't
Stop.
This is mainly for those people who can't seem to catch a chocobo with ease.

Sincerely yours truly :)

On your 2nd assault on the Shinra when your going to defeat Hojo make sure you make a stop off to the Shinra HQ not only to get Cait Sith's wepon in the locker or the 2 wepons from the item boxes on the 2nd floor but if you enter through the many many many stairs keep climbing to collect the elixer if you didnt get it on your first time there at the begining of the game but on this time there is also another item to collect and if I remember rightly it's a behemoth(finks thats the spelling) horn for red XIII if it's not the horn thingy then it's a different wepon I can't remember what it's called but it's there I found it the other day lol

Wen you fight ruby weapon the best way to realli do it is kill two of you're characters off so there4 wen you go in2 battle with ruby it shud automatically put his claws strait in the ground and they will stay there

I figured this out today, and it's great. In the Northan Cave, equip a Morph Materia to any character and fight an Armoured Golem. Weaken it down and kill it with a Morph attack. You should get a Guard Source.

Cloud's Ultima Weapon decreases in power the more health he loses. If you want his Ultima Weapon to pack an extremely powerful punch, you should keep him healed. A fully healed Cloud performing Omnislash with his Ultima Weapon will cause a cumulitive amount of damage, even more damage than the Knights of the Round summon.

Barret's Missing Score increases in power the more materia you load it with. This is quite an odd combination, as Barret should mainly be used as a physical attacker, but you'll cause a greater amount of damage the more materia he has in his Missing Score. Perhaps it's one of Squaresoft's tricks to catch you out. Barret performing Catastrophe (level 4 limit break) with his Missing Score overloaded with materia causes an immense amount damage to opponents, and is up to par or near-par with Cloud's Omnislash and Cid's Highwind.

Hi everybody!Are you tired of repeatedly dying against Emerald Weapon?Well,I have the solution!!

First,choose your characters.I chose Cloud (obviously),Barret and Red XIII.
Second,equip these characters with their Ultimate Weapons and make sure they have their final limit breaks.
Third,equip materia:
Give Cloud Elemental-Lightning in a joined slot and also give him mime and a mastered HP plus.
Give one of your other characters (I chose Barret) Knights of the Round linked with MP Turbo and also give them W-summon and a mastered/4 star HP plus.You can give him mime ONLY if you have three of them.
Give your third character Mime and a mastered/4 star HP plus.Also give them a mastered Restore linked with All.
NOTE:If you use my tactic then you do not need the Underwater materia.

THE BATTLE:
Before the battle begins make sure that Cloud and the person who does NOT have Knights of the Round have flashing limit bars.As soon as you enter the battle use Omnislash and the other person's limit break.Then use Regen-All.After that use W-Summon and Knights of the Round.Mime it twice.Do NOT give a go to the original caster of Knights of the Round unless you have given him mime.If you did not give him a go then mime again with a different character.If you did not finish him off then all you need is one or two normal hits.Dont waste your time with another Knights of the Round unless you think you really need to and then your done!!!!Take the Earth Harp to the Kalm Traveler to receive your reward of Master Command,Master Summon and Master Magic!!!The Kalm Traveler is located in the rightmost building in Kalm that is not up the steps.You do not need the Underwater materia for the battle because if you use this tactic then you will finish with about 7 minutes and 45 seconds to spare!You will receive 50,000 EXP, 5,000 AP and 50,000 gil!Not too shabby!Please try and rate this as this is my first hint that I have given on Supercheats.Thanks in advance!!

In the Great Glacier, if you keep going left from where you start, you'll eventually come across a cave with an Elixir in it. Grab it, but when the box appears at the top, don't push OK. Go back out the cave. You will still have that Elixir, and can go back in and repeat the process. It shouldn't take long to get 99.

But, if you're lazy, like me, you can use the W-Item trick. Get the W-Item Materia. Get into a battle. Now, use the W-Item command and select the Item you wish to increase, use it on someone and then select another Item. Now, press back and then select it again. The Item number of your first Item will increase by one. So, keep pressing: Ok, Back, Ok, Back, Ok, Back et cetera. Until you have 99 your desired item.

A lot of people have recently been asking: "Can you get back into Midgar? If you can how do you do it?"

Well, to save you writing a question, here's how you do it:

Go to Bone Village and order a search at the top, near the tent. This may take a couple of tries, but, you can go back to Midgar. Lord knows why you'd want to.

You need a Morph Materia, and, maybe, a Characters Ultimate Weapon. Then, go to the Sunken Gelinka (the sunken plane in the ocean) and Morph everything you fight. Each of these monsters give you a different source. Power, Mind et cetera. So, if you want to play FFVII, and have a few hours to waste, you can easily max out your stats.

I'm not sure how easy it is to get in the game or not, but this is how I got it

Go the the Shinra Mansion and fight people until you fight these guys that look like old fashioned balances.(the kind that measures with weights on one side and then you put the gold on the other side to measure the amount.)you fight them till they use a move called "???". What the move does is divide your Max HP with your current HP to get the amount done to the enemy. Hope this works!!!

This glitch is exploitable after passing through Junion the first time and returning via the ship after completing the episode at Gold Saucer. Board the ship at Costa del Sol. Go to Junion and head away from the dock that the ship is at. Follow the main road to the tunnel that divides the city in two. In the tunnel there should be a number of Shinra soldiers drilling. On the left wall, there is a red box. Go up to it and press the action button. You should hear a siren going off. Walk arround and you will get into random encounters with enemies that aren't supposed to be encountered until Junion is attacked by Weapon on disc 2. You will probably need to use summons and magic contiuously during your first few battles to defeat the enemies. Don't forget to save money on potions, ethers, and pheonix downs by using the Junion Inn, which is also a good place to save.

There is a way to get the materia "Quadra Magic" without having to breed a River Chocobo. You'll need the Highwind. Fly it to the most southwestern tip of land on the map and you'll notice a cave. Follow this back (Mideel way) until you get to a slightly upraised piece of land. Go as far as you can to the edge of the cliff. Face the Highwind south. Press the land button and quickly but lightly press R1. The Highwind should land half on the cliff and half off. You can now walk up to the cave and get the Quadra Magic.

This question has recently been asked and I thought I'd put it up here for you all. I know. I'm great :p

This is no doubt the most difficult Enemy-Skill to obtain. First you must have the Enemy-Skill "L4 Suicide" which can be learned from the "Mu" enemies, and you must have 3 Mimett Greens. Now equip the "Chocobo Lure" and "Sense" materia and find a chocobo around the chocobo ranch area on the chocobo footprints, once you find one, use the sense command on the chocobo to see if it's level 16 (since "level 4 suicide" only affects targets whose level is a multiple of 4.) If it is level 16, feed the chocobo your three mimett greens and cast level 4 suicide on the stuffed bird, the chocobo will counter with "chocobuckle", hitting the one who casted "level 4 suicide". Finally, chocobuckle is yours.

This takes a while and is quite difficult, I only discovered it yesterday...

Get a satisfactory score in all of the courses and a yellow balloon will appear near the start of the mini-game that activates Time Attack. Get through the Beginner Course and then choose to retry. Now, start Time Attack and go to the Beginner Course. There'll be a silver balloon there that increases your speed when collected.

Here's the tough part: You must set a record of under 00'54''000 on the Beginner Course. If you succeed, start Time Attack mode and pause the game. Go to options and then ghost. You'll notice a new "? ? ?" option at the bottom. Select it and a running cactuar will replace the moogle. The ghost and your record can be saved on your file. Happy Gaming People.

There is a materia shop in Red XIII's Home town that has "Mp Plus" and "Hp Plus". When these are fully upgraded, they to +50% hp or mp. I seggest you buy 6 of the "Mp+" and 6 of the "Hp+" and put 2 hp+ and mp+ on each member or your group (that your using at the time). When those are fully upgraded, thell be 50% each. So youll be doubling your mp and hp!!! Witch really helps!!! Siriously!

To get Reno's red sub you must fail the attack on the red sub(Don't crash it). When you can go back to Junon, go to the submarine dock and, once there, talk to the dog blocking the door and it will move leaving you to go through. Now the sub will be there and you can take it. However you will miss one Huge Materia this way so do it at your own risk.

After you gain acess to the Ancient Forest, there is a way to revive your characters without using a Phoenix Down. If you have a dead character, walk into one of the "fly traps" and make it swallow you. When it spits you back out, your dead character will be revived (with one HP left :P )

Well we all know about the very fun and exciting place to train right? Well if you don't it's in north crater. If you are around level 50-75 you should train in my favorite spot and thats around mideel (if thats how it's spelled) in the forest area with the head hunters and the funny looking bug like things. I really like this place because you can go to the town and buy alot of tents (if you have enough gil)and if you don't get w-item and get 1 mega-lixer and do the item cheat. And if you want you can train in the plane in the water around where emerald is. Sometimes emerald is waiting outside the plane and he looks like he guards it.

Well I hope this helps you train so you don't have to waste so many items in north crater. Really great knowing you don't have to use all your items on the enemies down there ain't it.

Just a small tip. Don't get choked up on this battle because it's the last battle. Just treat this battle like any other Boss Battle and you should be fine.

At Kalm, there's a dresser at the second floor of the Inn (the same Inn where Cloud tells you the story of his past). There is an item on top of the dresser, on the second floor, but if you check it, Cloud will say "Can't reach it". However, it IS possible to get this item. Keep checking the item, when you check it a 5th time, Cloud will get upset, shouting "...damn it!". He will then KICK the dresser. Then the 'mystery' item will drop. Try this hint and see what the item is.

In Wutai, the owner of Turtle Paradise is having a contest. They have put six flyers all over the world and if you find them all, you'll get some great rewards.....What?.....What do you mean, "Tell me the locations of the flyers"?....Oh! You want me to tell you the locations of the flyers! Why didn't you say so?...You did? Oh well...

FLYER NUMBER 1
Sector 5 Slums. It's inside the house on the east side of town, on the wall in the boy's room upstairs.

FLYER NUMBER 2
You only have TWO chances to grab this one. It's in the ShinRa HQ, stuck to the bulletin board at the back of the lobby,on the first level.

FLYER NUMBER 3
Ghost Hotel at the Gold Saucer. Inside the lobby next to the item shop entrance.

FLYER NUMBER 4
Tiger Lily Arms Shop (Weapons Shop)in Cosmo Canyon. It's stuck to the post on the stall of the Weapons Shop.

FLYER NUMBER 5
Cosmo Canyon Inn. Check out the wall next to the InnKeepers desk.

And finally....

FLYER NUMBER 6
In Wuatai. It's in Yuffie's basement, on the banner outside of the trap room.

Well, I hope these are of use to you.

Oh! And before you ask. NO. I will not tell you what the reward is. Find all of these Flyers and find out for yourself...

If you get the elemental materia (Activate the Piano in Tifa's house when she leads the party, I think there's another way, but I forget how), and equip it paired with the fire materia. It'll drain the majority of the attacks by the Ruby Weapon (Apart from Ultima and those weird things that pop out the ground) [You could use the fire armlet too, but that's assuming you don't have it.]

Uh, yeah. ^_^

O.k. Gamers you know how you see the fort with the pheonix at the top? Don't go directley there, because its easier in the game to get it on the 2nd or 3rd disc trust me


Happy Gaming,Ronloving

Emerald weapon; The way I did It, (the second time):

Initial preparation; As with Ruby weapon, I was level 99 with all my characters, and I used Cloud (obviously), Cid and somebody else. I had 9999 health and 999 mp. I had final attack and phoenix linked on everybody and 3 master materia's of every type on every character. I also had W-Summon with every character, and mime. (I had Cloud with his Apocalyspe, Cid with his scimitar and somebody else with a triple growth weapon. Everybody had a mystile and a ribbon equipped as well. (you get ribbons by morphing master Tonberries in the North Cave, and the Mystile's from various boxes in the North cave, and one before you go to fight Hojo, just before the mahousive staircase after you've fought the proud Clod)

If you have underwater materia, then you should equip it as it removes the time limit, however, I didn't have it at the time (you get it by morphing a ghost ship; located at the underwater reactor in the glass tunnel, or at the goldsaucer battle arena, hopefully, then taking the "guidebook" that you receive to the man in Kalm who swaps all your items)

I simply w-summoned knights of round, and mimed it, over and over and over and over and over and over and over...

Unless I died and did final attack, then I had to cast the summon again, obviously, or if I got a limit, then I used it.

Emerald's "Air Tam storm" attack is a son of a bitch, it ALWAYS hits all your characters, unless you have tifa who has managed to dodge it a MAHOUSIVE ratio of 1 out of the 64, 000 times I've fought him. And Since I always had lots of materia to level up for my other characters, the attack always did 9999 to us all. Luckily, final attack is a sexy move. (I read somewhere that this attack does 1111 for each piece of materia you have equipped..how true this is, I don't know, so don't hold me to it.)

Yes,
