How to use.

Download Latest release of BML.exe and run from your ff7directory. Add Refills and play (you need at least 1)

Put these files in the folder

          ff7directory\BML\Refills
          This is a reccomendation refills can go anywhere as long as you can find them

Notes

• Run the BML.exe in your FF7directory (auto detects compatibillity settings)
• BML will backup any files used upon 1st run,  To restore press F2 Then ESC
• After a restore, Last load option will play restore files.
• Any mods that you currently have on these files may not be compatible (unless using restored mode)

Files BML Uses

• flevel.lgp
• kernel.bin
• kernel2.bin
• scene.bin
• ff7.exe

To Upgrade Beta

Refills will not work with beta, You will need to upgrade,

Run option 1 from the beta first.
Delete The folder BML from your FF7 Directory
Delete Multi Launcher.exe from your FF7 Directory
Download the latest version and Refills

I did write an updater but could not get it to convert the mods in the beta to the refill format, Apologies.

Known issues as of BMLv0.8

BML does not delete a temp file in the ff7 directory 'modtemp.exe' if you open this it will install the last mod you selected from BML, There is no effect to BML or FF7 by this file remaining or being deleted.

BML Doesnt close down FF7music after game ends, I can easily fix this, Depends on wheteher ppl want BML backgrounding throughout play session, Please comment.[/list]

this sounds pretty cool! definitely a time saver and i bet it will make more people try out these types of mods, but minus the danger of potentially damaging files or mixing them up.
