You can use the old disc version, yes.

Sorry for jumping in on this thread, but I didn't want to clutter the forum with a new thread on the same topic. I hope that's okay. If not please feel free to delete and I'll post a new thread.

I came here looking for an answer to the same question. You say it will work with the 1998 version, but I have that and when I try to launch the game through 7H it gives me an error message saying it looks like I'm using an older non-steam version (I forget the exact words of the message now) and says I need to re-download from Steam. I don't own the game on Steam though so I can't do that.

It used to work with an old install (from the same discs) using 7H v2.x (I think - it might have been 3.x though) but I'd like to use the updated features of the latest version if possible. Is there anything I'm doing wrong? How can I get the 1998 version to work with the latest 7H?

The game is installed to C:\My Games\FFVII so it's not an admin-rights thing I don't think.

Thanks.

Edit: Nevermind - I got it working with v3.5.1.0 so that'll do for now. I have an issue with downloads on it though but I'll post a new thread for that.

Looks like 4.2.0.0 refuse to work with older disc version?  It thinks it's converted from Steam version.

4.2 still works with disc version... 7h is never not going to work with 1998 version.

Uninstalled the game and 7th Heaven last night(and the installer refused to work).  I'm going to try it again.  If it does not work, I'll consider Steam version...

**2025-03-03(YYYY-MM-DD): Installer was working, but I already installed Steam version...(yeah, I just want to make it running with mods)
