DLPB, did you get a look at my logs?  I am still trying to work out what went wrong on my end with my issue.  Tried other things, got nowhere.  e.e

Might as well put this here.  I have tried to install this mod and for some reason the converter won't allow me to do it.  It won't automatically detect the installation of my 2012 Rerelease nor run correctly even in administrator mode.  I have the folder installed somewhere in my main hard drive where I can access it easily, used to run bootleg with it and it worked fine till I put in Aali's new driver and did a new Reunion install. Now this.  It's saying the source files are incompatible.

Alright, I did a fresh install and did a Bootleg,  gonna do Reunion now, do retranslation, do models, and see what happens next.  I put in the new Aali driver config in,  now to do the Reunion.


EDIT:  It returns to the same error, something conflicting.  Lemme bring up the log.

Alright, then CLEAN INSTALL IT IS! :"D.    I appreciate the assistance, for everything.  Once again, you guys are awesome. I will do a fresh install, do everything from scratch and check out what happens next.  By then, i'll have to wait for Kaldarasha when he comes on.  I'll work with what I have until then.

Ah! That might be it. Once again, I am sorry if I become annoying with such small things. I love you guys and your work.  I will install the new driver and see what happens.


Also:  What I do, since I am using the 2012 edition; I install that, then bootleg, then do any reshaping on my own after that.   I know I said I like doing complicated work but Bootleg has fascinated me with many things.  The rest I do on my own after the easy work is done.  If that makes sense.

I am not exactly sure myself. It had an unhandled exception when going into battle mode.  I think it's from the framerate. I got an error when launching specifying the snowboard framerate.

I asked Kaldarasha if I could get the models from his project,  I like doing things a bit complicated cause ADHD and I like amusing myself. Forgive me for such disturbances,  being a  fan of the game I love experimenting with new features and trying different things. I think the files conflicting are from my old check up on the model insertions. I installed the retranslation, model revamps over the old. That MIGHT be it.

I think I may have to do a fresh, clean install of the game and redo everything from scratch.  I uninstalled the old reunion, installed the new one, went into the game and tried to go into battle, had an un handled exception.  Man, wish I could get a hold of all the files myself, i'd like to do a manual switch so I can do this on my own without the need of an installer sometime. e.e

If I had to use it, I guess it's worth a try. Your models are too damn cool to pass up. x.x

What Anti virus are you using?  Some Anti virus programs check the FF7.exe or whatever as a trojan and delete it automatically.  You need to go into the programs area of the anti virus' settings and exclude/allow the file needed to be passed.  It worked for me and I have Norton.

Go look through the other mods section for Reunion. Other releases or something I think.  Reunion should be in there.  It is a mod that has the proper "Latest" translations and menu overhaul stuff.   Okay,  if nothing worked then I am not sure. Haven't been checking things out that much but I will take a look into it.

That has something to do with the Translation I think.  If you had it checked, I suggest installing Bootleg without the translation checked, then install the translation with Reunion.

There is going to be a HUGE issue with R02...  it is not backward compatible with R01 or ANY mod that used R01 or previous versions.  So modders will need to incorporate the changes from scratch, and users will have to use clean files.
