Stop talking like any of these issues are my fault or that of the mod. The music issue is not only completely your fault but wouldn't come as a surprise if you had read the damn release post for the mod at least once.
You can try again when you learned how to not destroy your own installation of the game.
This is the unfortunate side-effect of free mods. No customer service department.
If you need extra care and help with something (that is already posted on the forums elsewhere... especially the original post), it is
extremely frustrating to the community when fingers start getting pointed. Especially since time is money - and none of us are making any real money off of the time and love we put into this. It feels like a personal attack, when in fact it's just frustration butting heads on both ends.
N7 isn't made for the masses, so Tengo Kuugen has to deal often with 'Why is it so hard!?' or 'What have you done to the story!?' or 'I don't like the way it plays the music!'. That he will have an unpleasant behavior to people who has problems with his mod, because they use it in an unpredictable way should be a bit understandable.
There are some mods out there, which can't combined with others and maybe it's the fault of Bootleg to not warn you properly, but it is also an user error. Inform yourself about the mods you want to use. Maybe the next bootleg is more user friendly. But please keep in mind people are sacrifice their free time for the mods and tools so take a rude answer not as offensive against you, sometimes they are simply annoyed by answer the same questions again and again.
I personally feel that if you need extra troubleshooting assistance other than what's provided (unless it's a huge legitimate bug that hasn't been addressed before -- and even then...) that you should donate to the creator of the mod. Even a small amount. Not only does it show personal investment and thoughtfulness (which is what we're giving you!), I consider modding an art. And since the Renaissance and before, art has had its patrons - otherwise you only get what you -can- get with the limited resources available. On one hand, this forces a really interesting peaceful coexistence with artists, designers, and programmers (and sometimes people who are all three!) But on the other hand, it creates large rifts of time between when the artist can find time to work on it. These are just observations from witnessing countless hours of wasted debate over troubleshooting and whatnot.
I also kind of feel that Square Enix owes this forum something for bringing thousands of people to its games in the form of re-imagined nostalgia over the years. After-all, re-playability is one of the largest facets of future profit projections in the industry today. Every time someone puts out an update to an awesome mod like this - it's almost like a MMORPG patch... getting people to play the game with a fresh sense of wonder... all over again... for the 3rd, 4th, or (in some cases) 25th playthrough.
I mean... could you imagine if Bootleg was sponsored by SE? As DLC? I think it would be amaze-balls for everyone involved... especially if SE acted only as a Publisher and didn't try to take over the project. (and why would they when they can just pay to get something that already works? without their own r&d? lol)
Just a few thoughts... sorry it got ranty.
