Everything is installing just fine for me, no errors nothing, but somehow i can't get it to work. It always crashes as soon as i skip the eidoslogo / credits and prior to that i get a error messsage "couldn't start in fullscreen" or something like that.
But anyways keep up the good work mate

I guess its just me and this damn vaio laptop, lol

I'm really looking forward to the 0035 release, hopefully that one will miraculously work for me, but take your time and good luck with everything.

You are doing a great job, cheers

@UGerstl Thank you for all your help, you deserve an oscar

@PitBrat, Thank you as well, you even deserve 2 oscars, lol. Keep up the good work

After i moved the folder with the mods and bootleg from my desktop to another hardrive, it all worked. No errors, everything perfect.
Thank you all for helping out newcomers like me.  Great, humble community. Love it. I will definitely stick around.

Cheers

Yes i am sure, absolutely nothing happens, and nothing happens in the taskbar either, and i waited for like 10 mins. No error messages, it doesnt hang itself, its like the "run bootleg" button has no function for me. And my virus software was turned off 

Does it matter where the folder with all the mods and bootleg files is located at?
Am i supposed to install the codecs that come with the ff7 install?

Am i doing something wrong with the normal ff7 installation?
Let's pretend something is wrong with my ff7 installation, shouldn't it start anyways after i hit the "run bootleg" button?

So, no one else had this problem before? Weird stuff. Damn Vaio Laptop   lol

What would happen if i try to run the bootleg.exe manually not by running the BFE??

Sorry for asking you so many questions, i know you are busy and all, keep up the good work tho...looks like its working for most people, just not me 

EDIT:

On page 3 i saw someone posted a pic of how the folder with all the mods should look like, and i noticed that the endings (.rar / .zip etc) of every file look different for me 

HIS:



MINE:



as you can see my files dont have the endings, could that be the problem or part of my problem???

I finally downloaded all the required mods, put them all in 1 folder on my desktop including Bootleg.exe + BFE.exe. Turn my UAC off, disabled my anti virus protection. Set run as administrator for Bootleg.exe & BFE.exe, then i finally run BFE.exe, i use the mod list option to see if i got all the needed mods, everything is green except Facepalmer.zip & ffmusic_install_15111, but i got the 15112 version and the Facepalmer.rars instead, then i modify everything to my liking, AND WHEN I HIT "RUN BOOTLEG" - NOTHING HAPPENS, hmmm??? What am i doing wrong? How can that be??

I'm totally confused now

And i need help. Thanks in advance...Hmm so confused

My Specs:
Sony Vaio Laptop
Duo Core. 2.0
4gb ram
256mb ati graphics card
resolution 1600x900

That's not true. Squaresoft was responsible for FF7. That is just me, playing semantics.
I agree with everything else, though.

Yea i know, that was just me typing fast and didnt think much, lol...But you all know what i meant by that, hehe

Pure Awesomeness, i can't wait until all mods are 100% finished and complete. As well as bundled and combined with an easy installer like this. This is better than sex, lol. Thank you again for this bootleg, which makes it easy for us newcomers and noobs who want to play the game in it's full beauty but dont know much about modding and stuff. You are the man Pit.

AND I JUST HOPE THAT ALL MODDERS WILL SOONER OR LATER AGREE WITH THE IDEA OF BUNDLING EVERYTHING TOGETHER.

Noobs like me are lost without an easy installer like this. Thumbs up for you "pit" keep going

And therein lies the problem.  You see no problem with a jrpg and FF becoming something totally different, and I do because that is why I love FF in the first place and why I buy FF games.

If mario Bros main game became a jrpg, I am assuming most of its fanbase would not be happy.

I totally agree with you. They shouldnt have made so many changes in the battle system. But i still think its an "ok" game, at least better than ffXII, but thats just my personal opinion. But then again nothing can or ever will beat ff7, its the blueprint in every way.

Cheers

Well, im not gonna lie, i will buy this when it comes out, and i dont wanna bash square enix, these guys rock and without them we would have never gotten
ff7 in the first place, but i do think that these guys make all the wrong decisions, they really need to listen to the fans. And i dont know why, but there's a voice
deep down inside me that tells me they will remake ff7 one day, it is coming, i truly believe that, lol...or maybe i just want to believe it, haha

I just wanna point something out real quick. The FacePalmer.zip link = 20 files named FacePalmer.zip.001 - 020 when it's supposed to be just 1 file?
The link to the 20 Facepalmer.rar files seems to be ok, i also noticed that the menu overhaul project mod file is named M003.rar, but in the bootleg mods.htm
its named m003.rar, and i think this might be confusing for newcomers. I've read your post where you said you dont need both facepalmer versions, the rar files would be enough, but this could still confuse other newcomers, just saying.

First of all i wanna thank the whole community for not just keeping this legacy alive, but rather making it even better.
I spent the last 3 days in this forum, and thank you "pit" for all the work you've done and still do, lol.
I remember how overwhelmed i was back in the days by all this stuff. But you finally made it easy for newcomers
like me.

Can't wait to install it. Just a quick question:

I'm on a Sony Vaio Laptop with a ATI graphics card. and i think i read somewhere that it may cause problems with ATI cards?

quote: Try running at the full screen resolution 1280x960 for better compatibility with Aali's OpenGL driver.
I'm on a Sony Vaio Laptop with a resolution of 1600x900 - Since im below 960, does that mean i cant run it at full screen?
And what resolution settings should i use?

And thanks again for all the work you've done, it's highly appreciated.
Just a few last words to describe this bootleg: "Pure Awesomeness, Epicness, God-Like"

Ok, nuff said and sorry for being a lil offtopic, i just felt like you deserve it.

hi,

first of all i wanna thank every person involved in this beautiful project...im a die hard FFVII fan and this is another reason for me to play this game again, haha...

but for some reason i dont get the saint hi res patch to work with the new prp patch???
i've read all 26 pages of this thread and noticed that quite a few people actually get this to work
and im wondering how??? what am i doing wrong??? is there an special order on how to install the different patches??
i would really appriciate any help regarding this problem...thx in advance...
and also do i need to install the direct x5 codec which is automaticly tipped by default, because i untipped both options during installation??

here's the order how i did it:

1. full install
2. applied the ff7 1.02 patch
3. then installed the saints hi-res patch (first i put the hi-res patcher in the ff7 dictonary - doubleclick and then i put the hi-res patch fix in there too and also doubleclick)
4. applied a few yamp patches like - transparent dialog boxes, advent avatars, spell patch  & 9999 limit breaking
5. and finally installed the prp patch - i renamed 00 to "char.lgp" and 01 to "world_us.lgp and copied and pasted them in the right folders
    by the way does it make a difference if i rename them like "char.lgp" or char.LGP???

6. and applied the laptop key patch

for some reason i dont get this to work, and i really wanna use the hi-res patch...any help is appriciated...thx in advance, peace...1

PS: do i have to make any changes in the config?? maybe tip or untip any option?? i also noticed that in the graphic tab on the right it says on every singleoption "pass" but on the last one "something  with 8bit" not, is that maybe the cause of all problems???

my system:

vista home premium
dual core 2.0g
ati readeon x200 - 256mb
2g ram
