What happened to it? :cry:

Also disregard the color, i know its supposed to be blue. will be fixed

Phew, that's a relief. Didn't see it first time I read the post. :wink: Wasn't the first bit (when he lifts up his sword) orginally light blue and the second bit (when he connects with the enemy) a kind of pinkish colour?

hmm, call me blind but what is the difference again?  :oops:

ok, i totally saw it and compared (i have to cuz otherwise i can't honestly tell, like in your pic earlier) and it looks more sharp and like someone else mentioned "cleaner." I'm so totally sorry about that man, I didn't meant to cause any discouragement.  :-(

Well, you are doing a very good job at keeping it relevant to the original. Unless you made it like rainbow colored or something.  :lol:

I know i am probably going to get flamed for this, but i don't really feel like, reading through 40 pages of.... well pages. XD.

But, is there a download link with, ALL of it in it. Or do i have to go through it and wheedle out all the individual textures?
o.o;;

which i am quite willing to do, but, i don't want to waste my time, needlessly.
And the first post was last updated 3 days ago.. does that have all the major stuff?
or is it all in the last download? Or what? I don't know why i am confused over this.
XD... i feel utterly newbish.
o.o;;

If you want everything released since the last release choose the Beta 6 on the OP.  It includes everything you need save aali's lgp/unlgp .5b binaries (you can find those in a sticky in programming feedback).  Follow the instructions strictly and you won't have an issue.

There is another texture set a few pages back sl1982 was kind enough to make ( :-D) that came out after the Beta 6 came out so that can go in one of the textures folders as well.

Hmm.  When you ran it did the command prompt show up and do three operations (should take a few minutes total)?

That may be the issue.  Are the lgp/unlgp binaries in the same folder?

Also, disable UAC.

i had everything in a folder i named GUI.. it was on my desktop.. i just followed the instructions in the download... and the patcher thing took like 4 mins yeah.. i watched it, it copied over all the files..

i put the lgp files back where they bolong.. put that... battle tex. thing, i think it was seffect1.tex.. or something where it belonged.
do i put the textures in aali's texture folder? Or what? Cause i just left everything apart from the lgps and seffect1tex. in the GUI folder.
>.>

you would think the lgp files would be bigger right?
well when i copy them over, they are all the same size.
>.>

*edit*

my pure stupidity.. i miss read the instructions...
i forgot to copy the textures to my ff7 folder...
xD

*edit 2*

or not, i had the textures folder copied to my FF7 directory.
-.-;;

i don't know what is wrong.
>.>
all the menus are the same.....
do i have to copy the

flevelTex

MagicTex

MenuTex folders to the texture folder as well.. or what?
:S

Do you just run the patch again with everything copied over e.g. magic, flevel, menu_us, lgp and unlgp? do you need to run the magic.bat file?

Patch does all the lgps. magic only does the magic lgp. if you use patch you dont need to use the other one

Hate to criticize or anything but your batch files need some work, sl1982. You should put quotes around directories so that the console doesn't interpret spaces in file or folder names as separate arguments, and (this isn't really a problem, just something that'd be smart to do) add a PAUSE command to the end so it doesn't just close right after finishing. (this makes it easier to check if something went wrong)

EDIT: Also, lgp.exe doesn't support ending a directory with "\" so things like
Code: [Select]
lgp %cd%\magic\ magic.lgp
should be changed to
Code: [Select]
lgp "%cd%\magic" magic.lgp

So yeah, this happened after I installed Beta 7. Any idea what might be causing it..?

Oh, and I corrected patch.bat as per what I wrote above, so I guess I'll share it for now:

Patch.bat for beta 7
