I have been trying to mod the game properly now for two days and I am not able to find the error.
I have, as mentioned in Step 3 of
http://forums.qhimm.com/index.php?topic=15520.0, chosen the "ff7_bc.exe" since I would like to use The Reunion - Beacause + Menu Overhaul.
After that crashed with the error message(screenshot below) I first tried to change settings around and realized that the crash happens as soon as the Menu Overhaul is activated.
Having realized that I double checked if I was using the correct exe which I was but in the spirit of having tried everything before asking for help I tried to use "ff7_mo.exe" and "ff7.exe" aswell
With the exact same result(again screenshot below).
In addition to that even if I disable Beacause/Menu Overhaul and get the game to start, the squished text happens with all exe files too.
Am I just missing something incredibly obvious or is there actually something wrong I have no control over?
