Title: [FF7] GAME CRASH -- MYTHRIL MINES PLS HELP
Post by: thebacteria on 2013-03-14 05:58:05
So when I try to exit Mythril Mines, the screen suddenly turns black with an error message asking me to "save game file" as crash.ff7

Here's the link to the dump and save file:
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/94025675/crash.dmp (http://dl.dropbox.com/u/94025675/crash.dmp) Crash dump file
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/94025675/crash.ff7 (http://dl.dropbox.com/u/94025675/crash.ff7) Crash saved file

Please help! I really want to continue playing FF7 asap D:

I tried to reload the crash saved file but I can't so I just loaded my last saved file which was before I caught a Chocobo and entered Mythril mine

He meant did you use a trainer or anything of that nature.

oh sorry, but I don't know what a trainer is. The only thing I added was the OpenGL 0.7.9b, chocobopatch, and 1.02 patch.

Hi thebacteria

The 1.02 patch has to be integrated as the very first.

Chocobo patch is no longer necessary! (since Vista?)

Aali's driver has been around for 2 years in a newer version (http://forums.qhimm.com/index.php?topic=8306.msg166102#msg166102). (The file 'ff7_opengl.cfg' should not be overwritten, if you have already installed other mods.)

To fix the problem with the shaders inside Aali's Driver you can download this (http://forum.finalfantasy.de/attachment.php?attachmentid=57525). Extract 'shaders-fix.zip' directly in the game folder after you Aali's driver have extracted there.

Greeting Kompass63

If you don't know what it is then you didn't use one. As kompass said, install 1.02 first, then aali's driver 0.7.11b. Do not install the chocobo patch.

There is actually a bug in FF7PC at this point in the game (first time exiting mythril mines) which can make it crash but its very rare and normally it can't be reproduced consistently.

0.7.10b fixed another bug which could be triggered in battle in the mythril mines (and many other places but mythril mines is probably the first) but that doesn't seem to be the issue here. Still, you should update to the latest version.
