Title: ff7 DVD install
Post by: corpse on 2005-04-22 18:10:16
Hi
I've just made a dvd install disk for ff7. It installs the movies, 1.02 and
Reunion Hires cloud.

I won't post the steps required unless some shows some interest, just thought I'd let you know.

The Reunion patch is an OPTION right?

Hi sorry for the delay

Ok before we start you will need the following:
ff7
1.02 patch
chocobo patch
Click teams Install creator
http://www.clickteam.com/English/install_creator.htm
Nero 6

Optional Items
Daemon tools http://www.daemon-tools.cc
no cd patch -PM me
Reunion Hires cloud -
and anyother ff7 patches you require

1. copy the install all cds (install, 1, 2 and 3) to the harddrive
2. replace the ff7 exe with the chocobo patch
3. within the folder created when cds were copied to hd create another folder called setup.
4. In the setup folder place the config file from 1.02 patch (not the ff7.exe)
5. move the movies in to this folder
6. If would like to include and extras folder (containing addtional Patches) it can be placed here, or parent directory (depends if you wish them to be copied to the harddrive.)
7. if you would like to inlclude the Hires cloud patch, then either overwrite char.lgp or place in extras folder.
8. If you want play without cds, then you will need a reg key, place this is the setup folder. (PM if not sure how to do this.)
9. launch install creator and follow instructions
10. select the setup folder (folder that contains files) tick subdirectories
11.keep pressing next untill you get to: Installation Directory, this should to be to your ff7 install directory e.g C:\Program Files\Square Soft, Inc\Final Fantasy VII
12. save as setup2.exe in main folder. (this will take about half an hour)
13. You may wish to delete the setup folder. I kept mine for easy access to movie files.
14. create a batch file called run.bat - to run setup.exe and setup2.exe.
15. edit autorun.inf to "open=run.bat."

That should work, but i would reccomend creating a image file via nero and testing with daemon tools before burning.

Also if you wish to use nocds please PM me

Do I realy have to copy all files??
The install cd is not a problem but the other cds contain AFP Fiels which cannt be copied and 680MB each in size.
Only the config.AFP can be copied.
