I noticed a while back you said you were waiting to release this until a couple new mods released their new versions. Do we need to re-download any of the mods that we have had since 0038? Thanks PB!

2
Can't wait for 0039! Any idea when we can expect it? :D. Not rushing obviously.


You should paypal it up so you can accept donations. I know I for one would donate too your cause of working on this great program!

The sad thing is...it seems like there arent any repeated errors with this thing. What I thought was bootleg installing things wrong was actually just EVGA Precision. For whatever reason you cannot run MSI afterburner or EVGA precision with FF7 or you will get nothing but a black screen.

After I figured that out I needed the EVERYTHING IS WHITE!! fix. Now everything worked 100%. No errors in my bootleg log what so ever.

I however still am waiting for 0039 too start a new game. :D

Hmmm...yeah. I don't know much about bootleg. I had a rough time with ff7 and mods and bootleg. I finally have everything working but I've never heard of your problem.

All I can say is...the program resets too default settings everytime you open it. Before you run it just male sure your install path is set correctly. Sorry that's kinda useless I know :-/

I've used the square Inc directory and had it work fine. I know you said you followed the basic steps but did you install it outside of a system folder (not in program files).

Also...you did a MAXIMUM install from the CD instal disk right? You don't news too patch the game yourself...bootleg does all that for you.

6
Under the 'installation' tab. Are you sure that your directories are 100% correct?

7
Alright. Thank you very much...not sure which I Dow loaded honestly. I believe most of them were not PNG :X. Might get this working yet!

Got everything working 100% Thanks for your help everyone!

Debating on whether or not too use the battle swirl limiter. What do you use in your videos EQ2Alyza?

I apologize for asking just about every stupid question in the book. Is there any downside too picking both 'use backgrounds as png' and 'use backgrounds as lnp? ' or should we only choose one?

May have gotten the wording mixed up as I'm no at home...but I believe it pertains too the battle scenes.

Still curious if anyone has encountered the save points graphic not changing or knows a work around for it. It seems like that's the ONLY thing that didn't change. Thankfully its not a big deal, but I'm a worrier so I would like to get it too work. Amy and all help is extremely appreciated!

Also another issue that I hope is an easy fix. My battle menus have no background (no blue background). Is there a checkbox for that?

10
What exactly are 'canon names' I tried searching through a few forum posts and havn't really found anything... Thank you in advance!

Edit: Also would anyone know why my Save points didnt change? It seems like thats the ONLY thing that didnt change.

11
Alright...I think when I chose too install the english version it gave me a notepad error at the end with some stuff....is that normal?

Edit: Is there any easy way too install bootleg so that I can use the re-translated text? Or should I basically do another fresh install of the game?

Edit: also don't think my save points changed to FFX as I had selected...not that big of a deal.

12
Yeah, bootleg is almost done. Gonna try that out in bootloader and see if it works. Pitbrat really is a genius for rolling this all into one program like this...

Edit: This is going to sound stupid, but if we are playing the english game, do we need to translate the text in anyway? I know there is a translate drop box that has english as an option..but I just left it be

edit again. 100% working so far up too the first save point :-)

13
Yep, thats the one I used. I was actually scrolling back through. As for the battle menu..I posted on the MO forums but I doubt he will reply. Hopefully somone on here will remember and shine some light on things...


Edit: think its the 9999 limit I have activated. Sadly in the midst of a fresh install now but I will try it afterwords!

Edit: nevermind...pretty sure I was an idiot and left 9999 checked. *crosses fingers*

Actually got it too work. It was the Everythings white fix! Now my ONLY issue is that my text is clashing in battles and the bars arent filling up

Does anyone have any idea how too fix this?

Edit: Also my barrett is running up and attack enemies face too face instead of shooting them. Very odd :-\.

Ah...that looks like exactly the problem I am having. Thank you! I am going to reinstall the game again..


I do recall 3-4 installs ago I accidently left the direct x 5.1 drivers on too install. Do you know any way to get rid of those by chance? :X

21
Sadly havnt gotten as far as bootlegger yet. This is on a fresh install of FF7 with just the 1.02 patch and custom driver.


I do recall accidently installing the directx 5.1 drivers when I installed the game 3-4 installs ago. Is there any way to get rid of those?

Alright, I have followed the many tutorials, downloaded the 1.02 patch, extracted it. Downloaded the custom driver, extracted it. Clicked 'custom' then OK. Set my resolution. Open the game...sound but no picture!

Disabling EVGA Precision set the picture from black too white and I can actually see the main menu somewhat. Everything is white but the cutout on the text. For the heck of it I click 'start' Opening FMV is completely white, hear sound fine. When it gets too the train, I can see NPC's.

Cloud jumps off, Barret turns around (he has NO eyes, they are all white!). Music plays just fine...thats as far as i've gotten though. Does anyone have ANY idea what could be going wrong?

I am running a GTX 580 with the latest Nvidia drivers. Reinstalled them a few times with driversweeper too alleviate that problem.

not trying to blow up the thread...but whenever I disable EVGA precision, instead of a BLACK screen I get a WHITE screen and eventually I see the words 'unable too open file D:\FF7\ff7input.cfg'


I am at a complete loss here...because that shouldnt do anything. Everything is completely white. When it gets too the opening train sequence, I can actually see the NPC's. Barret doesn't have eyes. Other than NPC's everything is white. wow haha
