Installation
Direct the Installer to the 'Data' folder of your installed copy of FF7; listed are the default directories, but custom directories (such as C:\Games) will work as well:
[1998]
-) C:\Program Files (x86)\Square Soft, Inc\Final Fantasy VII\data
[Steam]
-) C:\Program Files (x86)\Valve\Steam\SteamApps\common\FINAL FANTASY VII\data
Troubleshooting
If you experience any problems, leave reports and questions on this forum thread. One problem you may encounter is with the download of the installer itself; due to it's rudimentary nature, browsers such as Chrome tend to flag it as malicious. If this happens, recover the file from the Download section of the browser and enjoy a Doom reference when marking it as safe. However, to ensure security only download the installer from this Qhimm Forum thread. On the upside, the installer is fairly straightforward to use.

The guy has quite a lot of other neat sprite artwork on there. I recommend checking it out.
