Troubleshooting / Some issues with FF7 on Windows 7
« on: 2011-07-22 00:53:09 »
Hi there, havent posted in a long time(2009) as there I finished editing MyFF7. 3 days ago I decided to play it again noticing Red XIII's Blood Fang to be way too harmless in my hardcore mod so I wanted to simply boost it a bit. However when i try to open Wall market it simply says: Wall market doesnt work anymore and needs to be closed. Redownloaded it, same issue. Since I'm pretty experienced in hex editing anything of ff7(thx to gjoerulv in 2007) I wanted to simply decompile the kernel with ff7dec and the command prompt but that won't work either. After creating file kernel.bin0 it says command prompt doesnt work anymore and needs to be closed lol.
Also I have the No-sound problem during the cutscenes but only sometimes, sometimes they work(sometimes they don't in the middle of the game)
Since I haven't got my windows XP pc anymore(where I used to do all the editing and playing) I was wondering if this occurs due to windows 7(Never tried it on Win7 before and never had those issues)
Kinda strange coincidence. Is there another kernel.bin editor? or another method of decompiling kernel.bin? I'd be thankful if you could help me out with the sound problem either.
If any1 wants to know my tech data:
Windows 7 32bit
Model: Terra PC Dual Core
2GB Ram
2x 2.50GH processor
Mods installed: FF7PRP, aalis custom graphics driver, patch 1.02 and chocobo patch ofc;
Edited files: scene.bin(most of it by hex, slight changes by Hojo/Scenester, only AI's by Proud Clod),
kernel.bin(by ff7dec+hex in 2008), kernel2.bin(by Teioh),
gflevel.lgp(Loveless), world_us.lgp(PRP) and char.lgp(PRP)
Just in case that's somehow relevant to any of the problems. I don't have ff7music on this pc so it can't have anything to do with the sound issue.
Hoping for support,
greetings, TBCM
