Okay so deleting ff7_en.exe solved it, Reunion installed and works fine. Except it now plays midi music for some reason. So, is this possibly another problem with the Converter, or do I move over to the Reunion thread? God this is so frustrating. The Square store version seems to be a piece of shit.

I've tried running Game Converter from a different folder from the game directory, if that's what you mean. I've also ran the Converter from the game directory for that matter.
I install my Square store version to D:\FINAL FANTASY VII. Then I run the Converter, it recognizes my game install location as D:\FINAL FANTASY VII, I select E when prompted what language, and the patcher does its thing without issues. After this I run the Reunion installer, point it to D:\FINAL FANTASY VII, and upon pressing Next it warns me my ff_en.exe is the wrong size.

Okay, then I guess there has to be something wrong with the conversion. I don't know the details of how the Converter should work, but according to DLPB after the conversion I shouldn't even have a ff7_en.exe in the folder, but I do. The Reunion installer doesn't even go far enough to let me chose any options, the error message saying I got the wrong file size of ff7_en.exe (Which I find it odd that it checks for, if it's supposed to patch ff7.exe) pops up before I get to do that.

Aha I see, something funky going on with the conversion then. 7th Heaven works though, and it required conversion. That conversion also went without error, and it too left the ff7_en.exe. Maybe that's intended though for the converter they linked in the 7th Heaven tutorial, I dunno. Whatever the issue was/is, I got the new and improved translation and UI now so it doesn't matter.

Well my ff7.exe is the right size atleast, but my ff7_en.exe is 14 339 568. I did get the 7th Heaven mod manager version of BEACAUSE and Menu Overhaul to work though. Shame about not getting the frame unlimiter, but this is enough.

Thanks for the help, and for your work with this mod.

I used this to convert my Square Enix store version to be able to install the Reunion mod, which seemed to go fine, no errors or anything during the patching, but the Reunion mod installer tells me that my FF7_en.exe is the incorrect file size. Is it possible there could've been an issue with the conversion still?

Okay, thanks man. What is the correct file size for ff7_en.exe? Just so I know if I manage to solve it.

Well, yes obviously. I don't suppose you could atleast give me a pointer as to why it's warning me it's incorrect, so I know where to turn to? Since Game Converter installed just fine, I don't understand why my .exe would be incorrect.

Sorry, it just seemed to me that since Game Converter seemingly installed without issue, but Reunion doesn't, that it was Reunion I had an issue with. I'll ask around elsewhere then.

I'm not sure, but this might be the mod Kaldarasha is referring to: http://forums.qhimm.com/index.php?topic=14047.0

That is the same Game Converter I mentioned having used in my first post.

If you use the GC then you need to install this mod for the '98 version of the game.

Alright, how do I go about doing that? If you don't mind helping me a bit more. Not seeing anything related to it in the OP.

Got a problem with the installation, and no solutions in either this thread or the database. I'm using the Square Enix store 2012 re-release version, and have used the FF7 Game Converter linked in the FAQ (Which seemed to install just fine. No errors atleast.), but the Reunion installer is still only giving me a FF7_EN.exe file size is incorrect.
I saw a couple of mentions of this exact problem earlier in the thread.

Decided to install FF7 again and give this mod pack a try, unfortunately I get the error "FF7.exe: File size is incorrect.  Tried patching FF7 after to 1.04 and still no luck.

EDIT:  Got reunion installed, needed the 1.02 patch.  But now after the New Game or Continue screen it goes black and does nothing.


EDIT2:  Just ignore me I'm an idiot.  Dunno what I did wrong but on  try #4 got it all working.

I tried applying the 1.02 patch manually aswell (Though it looks like Game Converter should be doing that already), but it didn't do anything. The rest wasn't very helpful. I've tried every variation of patched/unpatched and/or converted/non-converted there is, still no dice.
Any suggestions?
