Archive / Any good Final Fantasy VII Soundfonts out there?

« on: 2005-11-24 05:24:52 »

Hi all, as the title asks, are there any FF7 soundfont's out there that make the PC game sound almost as good as it's PS1 counter part? I don't have Final Fantasy VII for Playstation any longer, so getting the audio files straight from the source and then implementing them is pretty much a no go (not willing to try to find a used copy just for the music). So if anyone has some good suggestions in that criteria or perhaps another alternative, I'm all ears (pun intended ).

Archive / Help with Patch 1.02 or Windows XP Patch.

« on: 2005-07-30 08:19:24 »

Hi all, I'm having trouble getting this game to run correctly with D3D Hardware rendering. If I just use the 1.02 Patch, the rendering is just fine, but the game will crash right as the first battle with the 2 guards is about to take place. So I then install the Windows XP patch, and no more crash. But, right as Cloud jumps off the train all the backround images and everything besides the sprites of the guards and barret disapeer.

Any help would be appreciated guys. I'm running a 6800GT video card, and since I've seen some of the screen shots of the Hi-Res version on a 6600GT I'm assuming I can get this game to Hardware render with my video card.

Right now I'm only using the windows XP patch, and having the game software render. (All movies transfered to harddrive) I've tried different video card drivers, set color quality to 16-bit and set the compatibility to windows 98 after having set to windows xp.

Thanks in advance.

EDIT: I just read that the 71.84 nVidia drivers seem to work well with this game and a 6600GT so I'm going to give those a try and see if that alliviates the problem. I'll report back soon.

EDIT 2: Unfortunately, the problem still persists with the 71.84 Drivers.
Thanks for any help/info you can provide:)
