I got the program running wiht psfs but i cant figure out why some of the fmvs wont play any music and some will.  Also a few in game cut scenes are silent as well.  Anyone know how to fix this??

example = when the video of the first mako reactor exploding plays, there is no sound or music at all.

Do a test by leaving blank "Emulate Ramps", "Delay stops" and "Maximize midi on song not found".
Select "Loop custom files" "Resuming = None" "Mute midi on custom playback" and "Obey stop".

On psf plugin configuration, select "Force all songs to play indefinitely"

With me this works, I had a problem like yours. I could hear the music but not the sound effects.

Also, in the configuration for the out_wave plugin, you'll want "Reset to original value on stop" checked, otherwise, when a piece fades out, your wave output volume will be stuck at zero.

2 years after my last post here, I've decided to try playing FF7 once again. I've got the Crisis Core OST and would REALLY like to play the game with Crisis Core mp3s in the background.

I followed the 1st post's instructions word by word, downloaded the latest version of FF7music, but still can't get it to work for me, even after these 2 years.. >_<;;

I still get MIDI music playing together with the mp3 music.. :(

I'm using SoundMAX with XGLite, and have muted the 'SW Synth' in my WinXP Volume Control toolbar.

In the game menu, I went to Config, and Set the music volume to 0, but the MIDI music plays everytime I enter a new scene, e.g. go into a battle, enter a Mako reactor. I have to re-enter the game menu, then Config again, dab a little on the zero-ed music volume bar to switch off the MIDI music. As you know, this is impossible to do during a battle..

Help, anyone?

If I turned ALL the volumes to 0 in the config, I'd have NO sound effects.. right?  :oops:

Only the music volume to 0. Works fine for me. :wink:

But somehow the soundtrack doesn´t play indefinitely, even if I follow the instructions.
Does someone know a way? :|

Abit of topic - has any one listened to the Crisis core sound track - there are a few reworked FF7 tracks in there which would go well with FF7 music...

I've got a problem. Although people who have had the same problem seem to have resolved it, I'm still stuck here trying to get FF7music to search for files. The file path is correct, I've added quotation marks and tried pressing the return key above and below the path. Anything I'm doing wrong?

I think it's the FF7MUSIC.ini

You need to download a FF7MUSIC.ini from an older FF7Music release, or from somewhere. The FF7MUSIC.ini that came with the v1.51 was either non-existent, or empty (for my case).

If viewed using Notepad, the correct FF7MUSIC.ini it should contain lots of track titles, etc.

I have followed every advice that people have put on this forum put whenever i play FF7 with FF7music, there is no music that comes out!!! all the plugins are set everything is set to the instructions!!!

Also when i go into config on the game, they say the music is "not suported" that must be it but how do i resolve it??

*Update* got music but it is still very distorted and sounds like a bad record does anyone know why this is?? or had the same trouble?

The reason why it says the music cant be supported is because you have to set it to this in the config, cause this is ONLY for the midis. That way, you here no midis anymore as your mp3s should be running. However, in my case I set everything like the instructions say and it still doesnt work

Hi evereyone. I installed FFVIIMusic, and it was working great with MP3s. Then all of a sudden, nothing. No MP3s, psf, or cdtracks. ANd I have no idea what the reason could be. I went back and checked, everything seemed to be correct. Anyone think they could help? Thanks.

Add me to the list of people who can't get this to work properly.  Probably thanks to Vista.  If I mute the in-game volume it mutes the sound effects too.  If I remove the midi.lgp file it works but I have no backups for tracks.  Ugh....
