Is your game not in English?
Custom EXEs are no longer used or supported in 7H 2.0. If you're still using 7H 1.x, that's also no longer supported. 7H 2.0 should be used with the stock EXE and ESUI (Enhanced Stock UI) as your menu overhaul mod.
Probably the "no battle boxes" that's with the FFX style battle menu. The trade-off for losing out so much from 7H 2.0 is not with it imo, but to each their own. Good luck.
