yeah, that's right. Any DLL that is injected into ff8 afterwards by a launcher or by aalis driver, needs to go into hextlaunch in_dll
Basically any custom mod/dll.
So - here's my file path structure:
FINAL FANTASY VIII/HL_Files/DLL_in/ all of my .dll's
I was getting the error for every .dll with my settings.ini file as:
[HextLaunch]
File=FF8_EN.exe
Process=
Window=
LoadHext=0
InjectDLL=1
NoInput=1
Delay=1000
So I changed it to:
[HextLaunch]
File=FF8_Launcher.exe
Process=FF8_EN.exe
Window=
LoadHext=0
InjectDLL=1
NoInput=1
Delay=1000
When HextLauncher runs, I see that it keeps trying to load FF8_EN.exe and failing until I actually click 'PLAY' in the launcher...
Then I get 'xxx.dll loaded successfully' for every .dll in the .log, but none of them are actually working in-game. Not even RaW. (and i left bass.dll in the FFVIII folder).
Any tips?
Ok I fixed it. FYI - I had to keep RaW and all tonberry .dll's out of the DLL_in folder for this to work properly.
Also - the .dll's seem to work find now - as I don't see the Square Enix logo on startup, I know that Publish.dll is working properly. This is good news!
Time to post some fun on the Steam forums.
