Title: Config error causes post processing to fail
Post by: SwordofAeons on 2019-02-08 19:18:11

Problem: following the installation instructions for 7H results in this error on game load: "Postprocessing initialization failed, check APP.LOG for more information."

Solution: in ff7_opengl.cfg, change the line

Code: [Select]

# post-processing shader, used to apply fullscreen effects
post_source = shaders/ATI_SmartBloomAdvanced/SmartBloomAdvanced.post
enable_postprocessing = yes
to

Code: [Select]

# post-processing shader, used to apply fullscreen effects
post_source = shaders/SmartBloomAdvanced.post
enable_postprocessing = yes
or analogous for your selected shader.

Select a shader in the drop down menu in 7H Aali Driver Settings and it'll be changed in the config file. No need to do that manually.

Not all the shaders will work though since they are highly untested across different hardware. If you experience continually problems, disable post-processing and the message will stop appearing.

That is what I did.  The drop down menu in 7H Aali Driver Settings changes the config file to the first line.  There is an extraneous sub-folder in the first line that needs manual correction.
