nope.
It should work....
by using the ff7config.exe from the patch, and using the FF7.exe from the game.
Don't check anything inside the FF7config.exe program....the "only thing" you should touch is the selecting of Hardwaremode...and your sound/midi settings.
All the Tests should say PASS. if one says ---- or even worse, FAIL....which will only happen if your using real old drivers, or if you disabled the 8bit palletization using Rivatuner...then, your doing it wrong.
----------------------IN case your wondering:
There are two methods to get Hardware mode to work
The old way:
The 8 bit palletization, must be disabled. In other words, the 8 bit pallet test must say FAIL before you check the Nvidia options. After you select the Nvidia options, it will change to ----. This is the only time you can use the FF7.exe from the patch. You'll need Rivatuner to use this older method....It's the only program (that I know of) that will disable the 8 bit palletization inside the Nvidia's Drivers. After doing that, you select your hardware mode, and the Nvidia options....that TNT/Riva check box thing.
The new way (thanx to nvidia fixing the 8bit pallet inside their Detonator Drivers) is to use the FF7config from the patch, select the hardware mode, and leave the Nvidia options alone....the 8 bit pallet must say Pass, not ----. If it says ----, it's going to crash.
