Thanks man.

OKAY! I cant believe it was as simple as this. BUT! I did a full uninstall and restart. Removed all files related to bootleg. Re installed everything with a few mods unchecked. and everything runs just fine. The only thing I did different was completely turned off all windows firewalls. guess the actual firewalls were the cause.

Sorry I wasted peoples time. AND THANK YOU For taking a look at this.

Hmm. Well I tried putting back at 1280x960. Still the models did not load. Only clouds. So Right now I am wiping EVERYTHING clean and starting fresh So I can Log everything from beginning to end.

Would it matter that after I downloaded the bootleg file on my desktop I transferred it to my laptop?

Okay so I have the Opengl.cfg file. I also turned off sync and compress textures.

Code: [Select]
# ff7_opengl-0.7.11b config file - modified by Bootleg



## USER OPTIONS ##
## If you just want to play the game, these are the only options you'll want to change.

# set the window size (or fullscreen resolution) of FF7
# 0 means use original resolution (whatever ff7.exe provides)
# preserve_aspect adds black borders as needed to preserve a 4:3 aspect ratio
window_size_x = 1050
window_size_y = 591
#internal_size_x = 640
#internal_size_y = 480
preserve_aspect = yes
fullscreen = no

#window_pos_x = -1
#window_pos_y = -1
#widescreen_hack = yes

# mod directory
# subdirectroy of mods/ where textures will be loaded from
# does not affect the old external textures feature, those should still go in textures/
mod_path = bootleg

# check your driver settings if this option doesn't seem to work
enable_vsync = no
refresh_rate = 60

# limit snowboard, coaster and highway minigames to refresh rate / 2, i.e. 30fps for a 60hz display mode
# vsync must be enabled and working for this to have any effect
minigame_framelimiter = on

# same thing, but for the battle swirl
battleswirl_framelimiter = off

# allow FF7 to use linear filtering for its textures
# some things look slightly better with this option on, but alot of textures just lose their detail
linear_filter = off

# plugin used to play music, the FF7Music plugin MUST be enabled for FF7Music to work.
# If no music plugin is loaded the game will play MIDI as usual but FF7Music will NOT work.
music_plugin = plugins/ff7music.fgp



## ENHANCEMENTS ##
## All the little extras that weren't part of the original game, default options include only trivial bug fixes.

# make all dialog boxes transparent, same effect as the transparent dialog boxes YAMP patch
transparent_dialogs = on

# allow max hp/mp to go over 9999, same effect as the YAMP patch by dziugo
break_9999limit = no
#new_hp_limit = yes
#new_mp_limit = yes

# include armor in magic defense calculation
mdef_fix = yes

# expand battle viewport to cover entire screen and make the battle menu transparent
new_battle_interface = on

# post-processing shader, used to apply fullscreen effects
enable_postprocessing = no
post_source = shaders/SmartBloom.post
yuv_source = shaders/yuv.frag
frag_source = shaders/main.frag
vert_source = shaders/main.vert



## ADVANCED OPTIONS ##
## Don't fiddle with these unless you know what you're doing.

# use shaders, if available and supported
# turn shaders off to use the OpenGL 1.1 backend
use_shaders = no
#enable_lighting = yes
#show_light_rays = yes
#show_normals = yes
#show_tbn_space = yes
#max_lights = 12

#Variable Functions#
#specular_fog = yes
#texture_scale_bias = 1
#texture_coordinate_clamp = yes
#pixel_texture_bits = 32
#generate_mipmap = yes
#detail_texture = yes
#shader_precision = yes
#tessellation_program5 = yes
#multisample_coverage = yes
#multisample_filter_hint = yes
#texture_filter_anisotropic = yes
#texture_edge_clamp = yes

# prevent glitches due to rounding errors by rendering in the nearest (larger, if supported)
# multiple of the original resolution and up/down-scaling
prevent_rounding_errors = yes

# enable alpha blending for textures without an existing blending effect
fancy_transparency = on

# display frames per second counter in upper right corner
show_fps = no
skip_frames = no

# display some real-time debug information
show_stats = yes

# store external textures in a compressed cache for increased performance
# compression is not lossless, some artifacts may appear when this option is in use
# texture cache does NOT update automatically if the source image changes, however, deleting anything from the cache
# will cause that file to be recreated from the source
compress_textures = no

# use pixel buffer objects to speed up texture loading
# will probably crash horribly on ATI cards but should work for NVIDIA users
use_pbo = no
use_vbo = no

# replace FF7's default framelimiter timer source
use_new_timer = yes

# use a more stable (but less accurate) timer to control FF7's framelimiter
# this option has no effect unless the use_new_timer option is on
use_stable_timer = yes

# plugin used to play movies, FFMpeg is the only choice for now
movie_plugin = plugins/ffmpeg_movies.fgp



## MODDER OPTIONS ##
## These options are mostly useful to modders and should not be enabled during normal play.

# read files directly instead of using LGP archives
# for example; if FF7 is looking for aaab.rsd in char.lgp, this option will make it open direct/char/aaab.rsd first,
# if this file doesn't exist it will look for the original in the LGP archive
direct_mode = off

# show every failed attempt at loading a .png texture
show_missing_textures = no

# Disable Error Notifications
disable_popup = on

# Load Multiple DLLs
load_library = Multi.dll

A quick search shows the newest driver is 8.15.10.1930.
But I still don't think that card supports OpenGL 2.0 which is required for Aali's OpenGL driver.

Is Aali's Driver sound only?

Post your ff7_opengl.cfg file.

Disable texture compression:
    compress_textures = no

Do you have vsync forced on is your video card driver?
Don't force any settings in the video card driver.
Disable fullscreen mode to run the game in a window.

I will have to post the ff7opengl.cfg file later tonight when I am off work. I do have the compression on the textures checked on and v sync, so I will turn those off.  And I have the full screen disabled as I got an error which reverted to original rez with Full screen checked.

Yes I did choose the custom driver.

Did you... convert the game before running bootleg on it? you're missing some info in your post. Like, did you install mods? did you convert the game with the patch? did you only use mods that are compatible with the 2012 version? if you installed mods, which did you install?
There's an APP.log somewhere, you should post that, it's generally an error log

and the re-release is not a "HD re-release"
It's a plain ol' re-release with the same graphics
who told you differently? slap them.

Yes I did run the converter for the 2012 release. I alos downloaded and installed the torrent for bootleg which had all the current working mods in it. Atleast I thought so. I did everything step by step on Tifas bootleg page and from EQ2alz YT video. The only App log I can find is the following. I fixed the error msg it was related to the ISO which was not selected at that time. But the models is what befuddles me. Clouds is the only one that seems to be loading. UI ,sound, vidz, but Barrett, bigs, jessie, shin-ra soldiers, none seem to show. For the bootleg config, I selected best of show, classic barrett and so on.  The only other error log I see is a Crash DMP file i cant open.

My apologies in advance this is literally the first mod I have messed with outside of unreal and that I never did coding related issues. Mostly just animations and actual models. Code is not my strongest point.

Hello. First I would like to say I thoroughly appreciate this mod and everything this community has done to work it.

I have the game legit HD re-release installed on my desktop. However I am trying to install it on my new laptop also, which runs Win7 ( :x). I was able to get it to load everything and it ran with only one issue. The models did not come up but sound and battle graphics remained the 97-98 versions. I then extracted the "Fix-lighting and Fixed missing files/" into the Mod folder under bootleg and then field. All of the mod listings before I ran the configuration were green.

I did a search and did not come up with anything. What could I be missing? Any help please
