Is it safe to upgrade midgame? Do I need to uninstall everything to reinstall?

As long as you backup your save file, it’s safe to do so. I believe you need to uninstall everything and the reinstall it all brand new with the latest version. Someone feel free to correct me if I’m wrong. Just copy your save file to another location on your computer that won’t be wiped away by uninstalling and the put it back when you’ve installed the new one.

Just want to say thanks for all you do/have done DLPB. Same to the others that have helped you. It’s a huge undertaking and greatly appreciated. I’m sure it doesn’t help that the world is a stressful mess right now too. I think everyone is a little on edge.  Take care!

Hello,

First of all, thank you very much for all the work that has been done for this mod.  I just recently began playing through FF7 for the first time since it originally was released and the Reunion mod has made it such a great experience.

I have the steam version of the game and had installed R06d.  I had performed a standard installation and had enabled the new models via the Options.ini file.  Everything was working great until I visited Nibelheim for the first time via the buggy.  The game appeared to be loading a cut scene and froze when I entered Nibelheim.  Since this occurred, if I attempt to launch Final Fantasy 7 it fails to launch and gives me an alert box that states "failed to open log file".  I have tried to completely uninstall Final Fantasy 7 and the Reunion.  I do this by removing all Reunion files from the Final Fantasy installation directory in steam.  I then uninstall the game from the steam console and make sure to remove any remaining files/folders for Final Fantasy (I copied my save file to a separate location for later use). 

If I reinstall FF7 from steam, it is able to launch successfully.  If I reinstall the Reunion, the same "failed to open log file" error occurs.  If I disable the reunion via the flag at the beginning of the Options.ini file, the game will launch successfully.  I'm unsure what is causing this error and how to remove it so that I can reinstall the game with the Reunion mod successfully.  I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling using both the R06d and the new R06e versions.  I have a hunch it is a simple problem to resolve, but I was unable to find any mention of it in the listed bugs or forum posts.  I did see that R06d had issues when entering Nibelheim, but did not see anyone mentioning they are experiencing the persistent error preventing the game from launching.  Any help you can provide is greatly appreciated!

1. An explanation of the bug
The game fails to launch with an error message stating "failed to open log file" when Reunion is installed/enabled.
2. Does the bug happen at same point more than once?
This initially occurred when visiting Nibelheim for the first time with Reunion R06d.  The error occurs whenever relaunching the game.
3. App.log (found in root folder)
No App.log file exists in the root folder but does exist in C:\Users\<User Profile>\Documents\Square Enix\FINAL FANTASY VII Steam.  File was empty.
4. Reunion.log (found in The_Reunion folder)

5. crash.dmp (found in root folder)

Hi again everyone,

So, I've tried to find any cause of the error I'm experiencing in forum posts and the database files for Reunion, but I've not come across the problem.  I suspect it is user error of some sort.  To perform a clean uninstall and reinstall of FF7/Reunion R06e, I have been deleting the Reunion folder from my FF7 directory (nested within steam folders), performing an uninstall on FF7 from steam, navigating to the FF7 directory and completely removing it and any remaining folders/files, and removing the Square Enix folder that installing FF7 places in my documents folder.  I then reinstall from steam and apply the Reunion R06e executable pointing it to my steam installation directory for FF7.  If the reunion is enabled, I'm unable to launch Final Fantasy 7 from the launcher and get the failed to open log error.

Would anyone know if there are any additional steps that need to be taken to get a true clean uninstall/reinstall of the game? I'm wondering if there are additional configuration files that need to be removed and/or possibly registry keys created by the mod?  If there's a better resource for me to go to and this is the wrong place for this post, please feel free to point me in the right direction.

Thanks!
