Shader issue and crashing.

[Blinding_Solo]

I'm having issues with Final Fantasy 7. I'm using Windows Vista 32 bit. When the game loads up I get a notification that the shader fail to load and recently the game has started to crash when I get to the submarine base. Here is a copy of the App.log

All and any help will be greatly appreciated and thank you Aali and the modders for the amazing work.

[Kompass63]

I think you should update your graphics drivers from Intel's site, does not use that from the Vista DVD.

[Blinding_Solo]

Ok I will try that and get back here with the results. Thank you for your help

[DarkFang]

Try turning the shaders off in ff7_opengl.cfg

[Blinding_Solo]

That worked DarkFang. I'm still having issues with the submarine thought. After fighting the boss and getting to the submarine I start the mission to shoot down the submarine with the huge materia and after shooting it down it does not go to the next part where you search for the downed submarine. Instead I end up back in the submarine to do the mission over and it never ends. Do you know which folder holds the story line so I can fix it or something?

[Template]

guessing you used remix or something? need to replace flevel.lgp maybe or reinstall without whatever malfunctioning game mechanics mod you are using.

[Blinding_Solo]

I'm not sure which mod did the malfunction. I'll do that and see if it works. Maybe it was a hardcore patch I got that I thought I got rid of that messed up the beginning. I'll check back. Thanks for the help

[Blinding_Solo]

I reinstalled the game and it still had the problem. I'm not sure how to solve it.
