Hello guys. I hate to hassel people. however I am truley stuck. I have installed the official patch, then aali's custom driver by extracting it then copy + pasting into the directory. checked it and it said test was ok. edited the file to change resolution. installed phoenix rejuvination project which works fine. now tried to install team avalanche graphic overhaul and says "aali custom driver is not installed, or not installed properly. please re-install and try again ect ect ect..." I know i'v installed it correctly because the test would not of said it works fine when i open the config and select custom. And PRP works fine aswell.

Hi guys!

OK, I've got the driver's correctly installed, the PRP and TAGO, then I start playing my game. It shows the Eidos intro video then after that it never goes to the new game/continue screen and the game crashes every single time! Here's the log:

Turn off texture compression in ff7opengl.cfg

Why do you need beta 8? You should use beta 9.

sl1982 · « **Reply #381 on:** 2011-05-26 20:19:14 »

The should be no speed difference between the two, beta 9 just has added features like an installer and some fixed textures. Also the WMRP

Hi!

I have some questions...

1.) I read that GUI 2.0 is not fully compatible with the German version. How about v. 2.0.8?
2.) I first installed Avalanche High Res.exe into my FF7 folder and then continued with installing Avalanche GUI v2.0.8.exe. Was that correct? What exactly is the whole purpose of the GUI?
3.) I had to change my registry (Graphics --> Driver --> 3) to install the High Res Pack. I thought that shouldn't be necessary in the current version? Or did I get that wrong?

sl1982 · « **Reply #383 on:** 2011-05-26 21:24:30 »

1.) Any version of v2 is not totally compatible with the german version, feel free to give it a try but i do not know how it will turn out.
2.) Version 2 of the GUI is just a newer version with many of the old problems fixed, as well as some things that had not been completed when Beta 9 came out.
3.) The Driver needs to be set in the registry to 3, you can either do it by registry editing or running ff7config.exe as administrator and set the driver to custom.

bjaxx87 · « **Reply #384 on:** 2011-05-26 22:44:52 »

Thank you for the answers!

So the GUI just adds some minor features that weren't included in Beta 9. I was just wondering why the newest release had a file size of 7 mb

.

So far I couldn't find compatibility problems, I will give it a try.

I already set the ff7config to custom (as admin), it didn't work. Well, it doesn't matter. "regedit" helped

.

I installed everything except for Spanish fonts (what's that for ôO?) and the character modells (as I'm already using reconstruction modells v0.6). I guess that should've been the best installation for my needs.

Great project so far! Thank you all.

bjaxx87 · « **Reply #385 on:** 2011-05-27 07:19:16 »

Sorry for double posting!

I have a stupid question: What is the first moment in the game that I can see a difference after installing Beta 9? I've seen a thread about the bombing mission but it seems to be not included so far. The only differences I could see by now are the high res menus (but as far as I know these were included in the GUI, not in Beta 9).

I just wonder how I can confirm early in the game that my installation of beta 9 works properly.

Try using a spell such as bolt or bio.

Download GUI v2.0, take a look at the images with all the characters on them. Compare these to the original textures in the menu lgp. Insert whatever characters are missing into the images.

how can i open the *.tex files from the menu.lgp?

Look around, this information is available all over the forum.

Hey people. I left a message at top, still having the same issue. "aali custom driver is not installed, or not installed properly. please re-install and try again ect ect ect..." I know Aali's custom drive is working because I looking at the frame rate in the top right hand corner and I've made my battle text see through. So the custom driver is working. Yet the Overhaul still don't want to work? Any help or simple it don't work on your PC would be appreciated, Thanks guys. I got a 2gig processor which processes at 1.6 Ghz and an integrated intel graphics card which I know is crap but I can't replace it. Packard bell with Vista 32bt. Is it capable?

sl1982 · « **Reply #391 on:** 2011-06-07 20:31:20 »

The only thing i can think of is you are not running ff7config.exe as administrator. The installer runs as admin so this could be causing the problem.

Hi, I can't seem to get the main menu to show the background pic. Any ideas. GL_INVALID_VALUE. Also can I increase my res size to 1280x960??

Also I noticed that the world map and game map did not get patched.

#edit. I uninstalled everything and started over with just the opengl and keyboard patch and then the PRP mod and then avalanche mod. Still have the gl value error on start up menu but mini map works right and the map is also revamped.
Figured out the screen size had to turn off full screen in opengl.config. Although I had to set it to 1280x780 so that the top of the screen didn't get cut off

. And a little off topic as this is for Avalanche and not PRP but didn't PRP have a battle character remap as well cus I didn't notice a difference except for Barret.
GL_INVALID_VALUE after entering battles and after climbing rope to Fort Condor.

Hello guys I have maybe an obvious problem that maybe can be answered here. I have recently installed FF7 with all the goodies you guys offer on here but with 1 small hiccup. I have this problem where I have to disable the shaders for the game to run properly. If i have them enabled in Aali's the Eidos intros and the game are all buggered. All the background images are white. Like I said otherwise the game runs without a hitch. I was wondering if there is a way to get it to work as it was intended and if the problem is localized to my own computer(which is a laptop). I am running win7 32bit. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

This problem has nothing to do with Team Avalanche. It is a bug in recent versions of NVIDIA's drivers. The only thing you can do is leave shaders disabled.

Why is my Cure1 spell LQ? Items use old animations too...

I installed and reinstalled Beta 9 (High Res) and GUI v2.0.8.

sl1982 · « **Reply #396 on:** 2011-06-26 22:16:21 »

Because they are not completed yet.

Plord1, Xion999 already posted a workaround for this shader problem.
I also discuss this in my mod installation tutorial: Bootleg Edit for the FFVII Remix 2.5.1.

   Xion999's 'everything is made of light' fix for NVIDIA cards:
      Delete the files in .\shaders\nolight\
      Copy the files from .\shaders\ to .\shaders\nolight\

I installed the GUI first, then tried the V 9 High Res patch. But, then a problem occurred "Aali's Opengl patch is not installed, or not installed correctly". But, the thing is that I do have it installed, how do I work around this?

PitBrat · « **Reply #399 on:** 2011-07-30 00:17:23 »

You need to run FF7Config.exe as administrator and set the rendering device to 'custom'.
