Steam 2013 version i believe.
normal steam launcher launches game without a problem. (via loading steam first them game from actual steam window)
7th heaven "Launch" after putting in any mod will cause game to load, show square enix, show ednos interactive, then show a small red box in the middle...ish of the screen and rest will remain black. Nothing else happens. All attempts to push buttons (side alt ctrl & del) do nothing.
Non 7th heaven "Launch" but just normal loading up ff7.exe results in the same error. It appears only way to get it to run properly is from the in steam launcher. Please advise, been working on this for almost an hour now with different tests but same results.
***Edit****
Shows squaresoft/chocobos running around, then music starts to play. as soon as i hit a button on the keyboard it goes to a red box in the middle then pitch black everywhere else. also, music stops playing at same time. a mix of squares black & red on screen while music plays.
**Edit**
ok that's weird.. somehow mods/editor/thing got installed to wrong folder... operator error...? (deleted the one not working entirely n steam version launcher still seems to load up without issues -.-...)
**Edit again**
thought I resolved the problem by realigning/redoing some stuff, turns out nothing changed >.>.... still red box -__-
Appears that ff7 normal launch without the launcher just (ff7.exe) is working fine, but it skips the intro videos (just goes to new/contine)
7th heaven "Launch" still does the same however... (squaresoft, chocobos, to red box with black screen & stays there)
Also seems 7th is pulling the mod library from C:\Games\Final Fantasy VII\7th Heaven while the game library is in C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\FINAL FANTASY VII\ff7.exe I'm not sure if this matters or not though...
