You're running on Intel HD Graphics, which can't handle most of the graphical mods. If you have a dedicated GPU with at least 512MB, then you need to set a profile for FF7 to run with it.

so all of my mods work except two while using the bootleg configurator. and that is changing the menu background and the prelude credits. everything else works except those two. would anyone have any idea as to why those two things remain "default" even if i change them from the BFE?

The idea is simple... some of them really don't work... let this be notified as reported bug. Try another one, most of them work.

************** JIT Debugging **************
To enable just-in-time (JIT) debugging, the .config file for this
application or computer (machine.config) must have the
jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section.
The application must also be compiled with debugging
enabled.

For example:

<configuration>
    <system.windows.forms jitDebugging="true" />
</configuration>

When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception
will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the computer
rather than be handled by this dialog box.


Which was mildly anoying, but I just got the things from the big mod list thingy on this website instead. But then when I had successfully installed it it just crashes on bootup with a similar message.

All my google skills have proven futile so... Please help.

I am in the process off reinstalling right now, when it's done I will post the exact messege I get when I try too boot it up.

Good effort, but the tag you ought to be using is code, not sub. It prevents the page from getting way too long. I've fixed it for you. ~Covarr

Edit: Apparantly, it works now... But this time I just took whatever settings, so it was probobly something I excluded that  made it crash I guess... Or it just felt like it. Gonna reinstall again with the settings I want and see if I get a crash then. If not, I'll just feel like a fool for wasting your time :)

Edit2: Well, it works... I have no idea why it crashed the first 3 times I installed it but what the hell. As long as it works I'm happy. So I guess that's dealt with.

So the only thing I'd like too know is why I get that wierd debugger crash/messege every time I click a link inside bootloader.

So, ran into a minor (and actually hilarious) little bug with my Bootlegified FF7 setup.

My BP:
Code: [Select]
C=24
S=0
P=0
R=0
O=111101001011100000000000000000000001111111001000000000010
N=0
A=1
V=3
H=11
L=6
M=2
K=0
E=4
T=4
Z=22
B=1
U=0
W=6
Y=1
Q=2
G=1111111111111111
@=00100101020000000010011000111004012200324376494200110
$=242223212722212225222522

Specific mods I have enabled in bootleg that I think may be culprits:
Re-Animation Fixes
Base Models: Bootlegged (Best Of Show)



When leaving Reactor Number 1, instead of climbing up the ladder to leave, Jessie kind of... eerily floats up the ladder while standing. Clearly she's somehow lost her climbing animation. Very minor, very silly, but quite amusing. Don't know what caused that. Hopefully not a sign that my install is somehow boned otherwise (It seems to be working fine).

Hey guys, I'm trying to get bootleg working but during the process where it downloads the files it aborts, says it has ruined my main ff7 files and I have to reinstall. There are some things it cannot find, but they appear to be related to the remix files, which it can't locate. It tells me the FF7 remix is not on the FF7 game path. I tried to find remix manually but I too can't find it anywhere as it is obsolete and all the links are broken. Dying to play this game the way 2013 intended. Any help?

First off, thanks a Ton for renovating one of my most beloved games. It was worth the effort get Bootleg running.

My question is is it possible to change the soundtrack to a different one after having installed bootleg? I chose the default midis since I didn't know what the other ones were, but I would like to try and have it be the remastered version. Thanks.

You can find the Remix files with working links on this site:

Hi Vesuvan,

You can change the music by finding and opening FF7Music.exe. When it opens, click the "Configure" button and navigate to the tab for changing music. Hit "Save and Exit" after you've made your changes..

Well I had to re-install my Windows so I had to re-install the game and mods aswell. I have everything that I had before, even a little better, but it looks like I missed out one thing. :(
Somehow, it looks like the enemy battle models kept their original form...
The enemy models I'm looking for are the ones like these http://youtu.be/RPt68eVe0P0?t=2m50s but I don't know what's the name of the mod that has them. xD
Does someone know and can forward me the download page? I searched everywhere. O.O
Thanks.

Just tried and the link works. However, on the game this is just the Cloud model and maybe other character model fixes. Good thing I saved the battle.lgp I had before trying this. xD
Besides this only has 262 files, while the number of files inside battle.lgp is 12397, so it couldn't be enemy models lol.
I thank you anyway though.

Hey guys, got everything up and running great, and WOW this looks good. Just a few questions

I chose the "OCremix" soundtrack by a guess, then during the music config menu later (during the bootleg install) I chose the orchestral version. For drivers I had 3 options and was unsure what to pick so I left it alone as general midi. What resulted sounds basically the same as the original game. It may be slightly remixed but its hard to tell, and definately just sounds like pure midi. What must I pick in these options to end up with an orchestral version of the original soundtrack (or something similar)?

In the config menu I chose the HDL shader option even though I don't have the newest pc but it booted up just fine and the performance is great. However it won't allow me to chose "preserve aspect" with this setting enabled. I would prefer widescreen but ONLY if the game isn't stretched out of proportion to fit it. Its hard to tell, some models look okay and some things do not. Why does this setting disable preserve aspect and what is the preferred settings for this?

Thank you! If these questions are in the wrong thread just let me know

I checked with Kimera that enemy model you wanted is in there xD
Check in that spreadsheet saying what models are what and just replace the enemy troop model you wanted not with all of em forgot to mention that sorry

Yeah but that changes my Cloud battle model and it's not just the soldier enemy model I want, on my previous installment I had most of the enemies models changed. ...I guess lol.

At least that was the impression I had before. I may be mistaken and it's just the soldiers that were changed all along.

Okay ... so.

I went through with the installation and customization options, but I can't seem to get the modded version of the game to boot fully. I got the updated hero model textures, and that's about it. What have I done wrong? Is this a common problem.

There's no section that tells you what to do AFTER installation with the Bootleg Configuration Tool.

Thanks for the help!
