Title: FFVII - keyboard
Post by: pepper46 on 2008-11-29 15:45:58

Hi, i installed FFVII yesterday and it runs fine but none of the buttons on my keyboard do anything so i cant skip the opening screen with the credits on it so i just replays it over and over so i never get to the "New Game"  "Continue" screen.
Does anyone know what is wrong or how to fix it?

By the way my keyboard is an acer if that helps atall

Thanks,
Scott

Is it a laptop keyboard?

If it is, you should try the Laptop Keypad patch (http://fem1.uniag.sk/Miroslav.Jezik/ff7ncopam.html), or buy a keyboard for your laptop. If you have a desktop keyboard then I'm really not sure what to suggest.

I went through all the buttons on the keyboard and nothing happens

It's supposed to be the Enter button on the numpad (with numlock on). That's the default one, at least. If you installed the laptop patch, then it should be the regular Enter.
