Lol I got you beat.  My laptop actually has been to iraq.  Bought it off my brother (Marine), right after I got it from him, I popped it open, laughed my ass off when about a half oz of sand came out

More than likely guitar dude hit the nail on the head.  You can try a dry qtip, or some canned air, but more then likely you'll have to replace the jack itself.

I have cleared it out, the path name that goes with thay errorbisngeneratrd by the install program.  I've ran ccleaner, gone to the temp folder myself, made sure it was empty, same result.


Nevermind, I swear this laptop hates the hell out of me.  Must still have some sand in it from its trip to Iran.

Double edit.  It did it again when it started to install the construction editor, haven't installed the expansions yet, tried to run it, it crashed. This makes me sad

I got it installed and running!
Windows compatability 2000 fixed everything.  Go figure.

My morrowind goty, which works fine on my desktop, is having issues working on my laptop.  Each time I try to install it I get an error, tells me installation support file _IsRes.dll file cannot create a file when that file already exists.  Any ideas?

I think he's asking where's the meat and potatoes of your forum.  Are you just now starting it and now currently plugging it in hopes of attracting members?  Or is there more then what we see as non registered users?

I post from ny cellphone and pulling quotes like yall do is just too much so ill just address each point specifically.

@Lex; from what I understand, SE is a Japanese corporation right?  The amount of influence they wield, primarily from the business tatics from the 80s, flooding the market with much cheaper products, ie tv, radio and other electronics is what shut down a lot of America's production side in those fields, once they took over the American market, they pretty much grabbed the USA by the short ones.  It wouldn't be anything for square to send a C&D just for Shits and Giggles, and there would be no way to fight it, even if you had nothing.to do with piracy to begin with.  As for the location of this website/forum and us law, where do you think the primary lawsuit is gonna come from?   The USA, all because we have the polical power to enforce frivolous lawsuits and chase them all over the worls.  Imo anyways.
As for the psx ver, unless your lucky,.can you really trust what some cat says knowing full and well that once he has your money, there's very little you can fo with the bunk discs he mailed you? what amazon wants is just insane, so I won't even go there.

Hold on, be right back,.cake.

Edit; good bday cake.

Alright, where was I.  Oh, yes.
@Bas; while China and Taiwan produce them, who do you think is prinarily responsible for development?
As for the judges, most don't care, its pay your fines or goto jail.  Nevermind that most cases are against the poor and that the fines often grossly exceed the crime.  As for the case you mentioned, theres just certain levels of stupidity you just can't account for.

Yep. And that's how they managed to quickly apprehend the ChronoCompendium project and shut it down. Not just ChronoRessurection - the community reverse engineering knowledgebase, too.

I am not putting our decade'sworth of research at risk.

Which was down right retarded of them, SE could have made bank off that project and introduced Chrono to a whole new generation of gamers.  That's one of my biggest problems wjtht the dev teams of companies that are far too concerned with $ then anything else.
Think about it though, sure, they got the software by less yhen favorable means.but we are talking about ff7, any gamer that is actually interested in such an old gake to begin with isn't going to be youebtypical idiot who downloads games as soon as its been released, which does harm companies.  As far as it being released on psn/ps3, that's fine and dandy but I personally don't have 300 plus bucks to spend on a gaming rig right now, def not one that lostvits backwards comparability shortly after coming out.
Piracy itself has its own upsides and downsides, when it comes to older games you just cant get ahold if, fantastic, if your downloading the latest black ops, feel ashamed

Haha, some offtopic.

Actually, at least to us Germans, if not to all Europeans, the "Americans" are known for their weird laws and over- and abusing the law system.

To my eyes, the US government is full of hypocrites, but this is another story....

Here stateside,.at least where I come from, its not as abusive as you think, unleas your a law officer, judge or politician, or rich. Those of us unfortunate enough to live paycheck to paycheck don't get to abuse anything but our cars or our kids, and now days its getting harder to do anything without uncle Sam looking over our shoulders.  When i grew up, it was perfectly acceptable to beat a child's ass if they acted up in public, I myself being a vet of many such public whuppings, learned.  Now you can't even give a kid the evil eye. 

I really don't think America has anything to do with it, considering they're in Japan.

Lex, you do realize.that the majority of our electronics and the componates come from japan or japanese companies?  Don't underestimate how much power they have over a lot of things here in the states.

Organizational Culture.  That is not how we do it here.  Personally, I think it is better not to have potentially dangerous words appearing here so there is less chance of drawing the attention of pirates and other unwanted entities.  I think this thread should go to the trash can.

Kinda closed minded ain't you?

Overall I think that where you get your game from is your business, i do agree its a bit heavy handed to goto the extreme to keep any mention of piracy away.  Someone will always ask and one way or another, they will get an answer, why deny them the pleasure of playing wonderful games?  (my opinion on piracy extends to older games only, of they no longer make it for a certain format then it shouldnt matter how you get it.)  I got lucky in that i found both of my copies at a garage sale, and I've still got my psx version, scratched as it is D;

Coulda been guests, who knows.  My bitchyness is directly linked to a lack of a certain green plant, so take no mind to the edit. 

I hate being sober.

I do all my online business via my Android, very little hassle on this thing.  Wirh the rxception of the currently busted screen.  And the auto correct, gets annoying when you can text/type as fast as I can though, you start with a normal conversation, then boom, in.the flurry of fingers an unintended letter gets pushed and your stuck with a word that makes no sense what so ever.  All because they didn't count on fat fingering.  What little experience I have with the iPhone was limited to setting up a email for a buddy of mine out on the oil fields, he was about as technological as you can get if yo speak like elmer fudd.
Long story short, I wasn't impressed and when i finally got it set up the first two non curse words out of my mouth were "never again"

You bring up some good points, but America is ran by big business.  It's a shame really considering that allowing older games to be free, more attention would brought abiut to newer games of the same series or developers for that game.

Just wanted to introduce myself, I am Sway.  Unashamedly a ff7 fanboy, just picked up ff7 and ff8 for pc and I'm gettin back into playing.
Side note
Thanks to all the posters here, before I registered I had issues with ff8, but thankfully I found information here and in currently enjoying the game. 

Edit:  30+ views and no one can say hello back?  Wow, friendly little forum isn't it?

FF8 Tools / Re: [1.5.1] Hyne - My ff8 save file editor

« on: 2012-01-26 23:07:39 »

I'm having some difficulty downloading.  Mirror two comes back as down or moved and mirror three won't let me download anything to my phone, so i had my little brother download it, he pulled from mirror three and came over.  Ok, I transferred the files over, turns out I was missing a few dll files, downloaded those and its still coming back as a no go.  The last error came back that the msvcr100 is not designed to run on windows.  I'm lost and I can't find any place else that clearly hosts the hyne 1.5.1 zip for windows. 
What do I do now?  I'd like to use the program, but I'm at a loss for the next step
