Troubleshooting / Downloads stuck at calculating
« on: 2017-11-18 23:40:23 »
Hello so I installed ffvii and 7th heaven to my new computer but now whenever I try to download something from the catalog it stays stuck at "calculating" and doesn't actually download the mods. Is there any way to manually install them or is there something I have to do? I've tried reinstalling the game and cleared out the leftover rubble with the FF7 registry key tool. However this didn't seem to solve the issue. Can anyone help me with this?

Troubleshooting / Texture mods not working
« on: 2016-10-18 07:30:00 »
I've installed everything through 7th Heaven mod tool and everythings mostly working except for the texture mods. I've installed the improved graphics for both the world textures and the field textures as well as battle and spell textures and none of them are working. I thought maybe its because they're notin the texture folder so i placed them in there and opened up 7th heaven and it showed an error saying the mods were moved therefore the program removed them. I then pressed the import button to manually have the program make them appear again in the library and they showed up but not with the simple names like before. more like "kae29378929827.39739 Field_Textures.iro" or something like that. But i activated them, and they didnt show up in the game still. I then though maybe it was because the texture folder was outside of the "7th Heaven" folder. i put them inside there and the program recognized them again saying something like "mod textures installed." but when i activated them and booted up the game, nothing changed. Why won't any textures show? What am I doing wrong?

You're right. I just realized that my mods aren't working correctly after all -.- oh well, looks like I'm gonna have to go back and redo everything.

It didn't come off that way to me, hopefully he is not offended by this thread I only meant well. :/ My apologies if I did, Kaldarasha.


Btw, EQ2Alyza is it possible to keep my downloaded .IRO mod files after uninstalling 7th Heaven, FF7, and everything associated with it to start clean? Can I just keep them someplace else and when I need to reinstall 7th Heaven can I just place them back into my 7th Heaven folder? I'm not getting Battle Textures and Battle Models to show up properly in game though I thought I was so I think I need to start fresh but I don't want to spend hours waiting for my downloads again.

Sorry about the wait I had some issues with my Origin account and I had to get them all sorted out gaah >.< anyway, here's the screenshots. I don't have much mods running though and I still have to figure out a couple of things but other than that it's good.  :)








I use Kaldarasha's in game models btw. I like his :)

6
Yes I am running the steam version and I'll send you a screenshot in a little. I'm currently modding my Sims 4 game :) lol

Have you tried running it in Admin? I think I had the same problem and when I changed it to run in Admin, the black screen went away.

Oh I see. Is that why the "sources not compatible" error showed up? I'm really sorry I wasn't trying to accuse you of anything. I was just saying even if you did download the game it wouldn't have been illegal according to what the admin posted. And your suggestion in the other thread to use an older build of GC really did help me therefore I thought your error was because you were facing the same problems I was.

I use windows 10 as well and I've run into several problems but I don't think it has to do with the OS. How are they not working?

I've read somewhere on these forums (I forgot who that poster is, but I think it was admin.) they said that in germany, it is legal to download copyrighted material even if you don't own the original. Its only illegal if you upload that said material. Now I believe EQ2Alyza stated Kaldarasha is from Germany therefore I don't even think what he did was illegal In his country :/ besides he probably has multiple copies just like I do. (I can't help it, I keep buying all versions of FFVII lol)

Haha yeah I understand you must be very busy. And that's awesome that you live in Japan, traveling to Japan and learning the language is actually on my bucket list. :D

And I like Kaldarasha's models, I'm using them for my game. I don't really care if he pirated the game its none of my business anyway. Thanks for helping me, perhaps when you're more settled in I can go to you for help if I need it (I most likely will, I'm a lost cause lol) thanks again!

Thank you EQ2Alyza for explaining that to me. At first I believed I was either a nuisance on your thread or you really didn't have time (which I understand BTW) to assist me and therefore I thought maybe that's why you weren't saying much to me which I know it sounds silly but it got me a little discouraged to be honest. (Both could be true and I don't blame you, I am annoying IRL sorry) I did not know that Kaldarasha was playing a pirated version I just thought he had the same problem as me. I figured out most the stuff on my own but it was another user on your thread which helped me with the laptop patch issue and I can now play the game normally though I will most likely run into some issues because as you've said to me now I'm not running the mods under a proper set up which will more than likely cause me to rage quit in the future.

@Vgr thanks for the explanation I was right to press "like" then :)

13
Inquiries related to 7th Heaven should go in the respective subforum. That said, your issue seems like an issue with a specific mod (I would guess the numpad patch, but that's merely an uneducated guess), rather than the whole package. I've gone ahead and renamed your thread title to be more descriptive.

-Vgr

Edit: Judging by your edit, I am very inclined to think that the laptop keyboard patch is to blame. Your edit also undid my own edit to your title. Oh well.


Haha yeah sorry about that as well. But I fixed the problem by plugging in a ps3 controller with a USB port. I can't play on the laptop without it though and I really think there needs to be a fix to that but the controller is much easier to play with so I'm not complaining. Everything is working correctly and I knew that the fault lied within Game Converter's "patch." Btw, on a totally unrelated topic what do the "likes/dislikes" on here mean? I liked your reply but does it do anything or is sort of like a facebook "like?" Just curious, never seen it before. :o

14
I will try it thank you for helping. Thank you CplDingo1987 your suggestion worked and I can finally play the game with mods working. FINALLY. I gave you a "like" though i don't really know what that does lol but hey thanks again

Sorry about that and yes I am sure it is with the num pad patch too. I've since manually installed it myself and now I can get past the start screen but I still cannot run or press any other function other the the directional pads and enter therefore I cannot even pull up the menu.

Troubleshooting / FF7 7th Heaven Issues.
« on: 2015-10-28 18:38:16 »
So I've tried to post on the actually 7th Heaven thread but I can't find the help I need so that being said....

I've recently gotten the 7th Heaven mod manager and I've downloaded all my mods and activated some of them in the correct order according to the thread. Problem is what when I press launch game and it goes to the menu screen, I can't move the hand cursor to press "NEW GAME." I tried to press the numbers at the top of the keyboard but nothing and the directional pad doesn't work either. When I ran the game converter and it asked me if I wanted the patch for the num pad I pressed yes so I'm not sure why this is happening. I've done this so many times already and nothing is working. Also I noticed that when I booted up the game, the mods weren't even working because I have the mod for the background and main menu to be replaced by different textures and it didn't even change it at all. Someone please help me with this I bought the pc version just to I could mod it and its been two weeks of hell trying to figure out how to get it to work. I don't want to be ignored I just want someone to help.


EDIT: I downloaded the Laptop Keyboard patch manually since Game Converter doesn't work properly. I've booted up the game and everything shows my mods which gives me a bit of relief but I still cannot use all the functions on my laptop. And the Menu background mod still isn't working. When I played I couldn't even get past the screen where you rename Cloud because I couldn't go all the way to the right to press select to move on with the game. Cloud also cannot run anywhere, he walks instead and I don't know how to get him to run. The only keys that work are the directional buttons on my laptop (Up, down, left, right), and the "Enter" button. Nothing else works.

17
Also yes I did press yes for the patch to the keyboard since I don't have a number pad on it. But its still not working.

18
What kind of controller would work? And how do I set it up to my laptop?

19
Hmm....well I've got everything up and running but I can't even press new game. I'm supposed to be able to move the cursor with the little directional arrows on my keyboard, correct? Even so I'm not even sure if the mods are working. I can already tell somethings wrong with the mods since I got the menu- avatar and backrounds mod but my title screen wasn't even any different. Can someone please help me Out with this? I've been able to get by this far and that's an accomplishment for someone like me.

Edit: I still haven't been able to fix it. I can't even press new game. Why is this not working? I've redone this process so much and its frustrating that this is so complicated. -.- I've done the steps exactly according to what the video and the instructions say.

20
Nevermind I fixed the problem for now. If anyone else has the same problem I have, please delete the leftover 7th Heaven files from your AppData/Roaming folders. If you can't find it do a quick search of "7th Heaven" on your PC and you'll find all the folders related to the mod manager that your computer has kept and is therefore not having the program running correctly.

Hey guys I'm trying to look for a solution to my issue. So this is my second time installing 7th Heaven and before I uninstalled it I had cleaned up all the mods I had downloaded from my computer. I'm trying to get 7th heaven back onto my laptop but every mod on that catalog already says "installed" but it isn't. I'm guessing something went wrong when I last deleted 7th Heaven from my computer and it acts like the downloads are still stored on my laptop but they're not. I deactived one of my mods then activated it again and it gave me an error:

System.IO.FileNotFoundException: Could not find file 'C:\Games\FF7\steamapps\common\FINAL FANTASY VII\mods\2838d002-b3d9-4a63-bfbb-2e74d06de8e7_Battle_Models___Weapons_1.0.iro'.

How to I do I clean install of 7th heaven so that way I can re-activate the mods again?

Nvm I got it. I deleted Appdata and it reset the program to the way it was during 1st install.

22
EDIT:
I was able to figure it out, I had to run everything as admin.

QUESTION!

Are there any cheats for this?


I think there is. It's one of the mods you can activate through 7th Heaven. Though if you mean cheats in the actual game I'm not sure there is. But there are glitches you can take advantage of such as the W-item trick which works like a cheat.

23
Okay so now it's the 7th Heaven mod that's having issues. The weird thing was that everything i had before was already downloaded and installed in the mod tool so I don't know if it correctly uninstalled. I pressed deactivate on one of the mods and then I pressed active again and this error shows up:

System.IO.FileNotFoundException: Could not find file 'C:\Games\FF7\steamapps\common\FINAL FANTASY VII\mods\2838d002-b3d9-4a63-bfbb-2e74d06de8e7_Battle_Models___Weapons_1.0.iro'.

I'm guessing that means that maybe everything on the program is set from last time but the actual files aren't on my computer? I also keep getting an error when I first start up the program saying

"The following errors were found in your configuration: Extra folder C:\Games\FF7\steamapps\common\FINAL FANTASY VII\music not found."

I'm not sure what to do from here.

24
You're right, it worked Kaldarasha thank you. I noticed all the problems I was having seemed to revolve around the Game Converter. Hopefully I can do this successfully now. Thank you again.

25
So there's no fix to this? It went last time when I wasn't using the ISO file to be honest. It worked when I renamed a drive "FF7DISC1." I feel like this process is only complicated for me lol.

How did you get around this, Kaldarasha?
