You HAVE to rename and stuff. Refer to TA for that.

Always make sure your .png files have the EXACT same name as the file your are attempting to overwrite.  There should be no problem if you are sure to do that step correctly.

in ff7_opengl.cfg enable show missing textures, start the game, go into battle, use magic that you need, than check app.log for the path and the name
