It's the "New CM" one that's going in.I thought about this and I hope it can be done, is it possible to externalize all the sound variations of the Limit Break, including the original one, without touching the one integrated into the mod?
It's the "New CM" one that's going in.So it's not possible to put it separately within the mod itself,if one wants to leave the sound of the limit unchanged?
I've been taking a bit of a break to play through Rebirth. Once I'm finished, I'm going to complete this ESUI theme project I've been working on, but once I'm finished with that I'm going back to CM and go through some sounds and try making some of the more iconic sounds more similar to their old sound. The limit break sound in particular is one that comes up often and I have a new replacement for it to give you an idea of what I'm trying to do with them.

Formerly known as "Bonez' Sound Effect Suite". Cosmo Memory uses the new FFNx SFX engine and is an entirely new mod rebuilt from the ground up with a ton of new features. This project started out in 2018 as a little mod to just replace the FF7 menu sounds with the menu sounds from FFXIII. Since that time, it has evolved into something far more... After following the community and modding the game for several years, I noticed the graphical and musical mods were growing and advancing but the sound effects department was totally stalled. I mean, it's an entire 1/3 of what your senses are taking in, along side the visuals and music! I wanted something to match the beautiful/advanced graphical and musical mods provided by the very talented authors/creators of this community... So, I present to you Cosmo Memory: A Complete Sound Overhaul.
Features:
- Replaces/updates all 724 original sound effects including battle, magic, enemy skills, limit breaks, summons, world
- NEW Ambient sounds for every field and battle scene in the game
- Ground-conditional footstep sound effects for every field and world map
- Replaces all sound effects in cutscene videos (Compatible with any FMV video)
- Voiced attacks or "grunts" for all party members
- Shuffled battle impact sounds as well as other select sounds randomly so you never hear the same exact sound twice in a row
- 3 selectable menu sound sets
- Complete compatibility with New Threat, Echo-S and any other mod
- Each feature is optional
Launch Trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zt0GRSb8KcA
IMPORTANT
-This mod REQUIRES 7th Heaven 2.4+ and FFNx 1.11+
You can download the latest 7th Heaven here : https://github.com/tsunamods-codes/7th-Heaven/releases/tag/canary
-For best experience, use headphones and set music volume to ~60%

Hi kanelakisOk,by the time I got over that level, if I happen later I'll do that test.
What you did for ajthedj747 advised?
At the moment I find not very much.
You could start FF7.exe directly without FF7Music.
Then you have no music, but the game should work.
If the game still crashes, at least we know that it is not at FF7Music.

@kanelakis, were you able to fix the game with my suggestions from our Private Message Sessions?For the time being, but I want to hear the opinion of an expert to make sure that I do not happen again.
start your bootleg configurator, go to 'installation' and copy your 'pitbrat code' and post itOk,this is my pitbrat code:0101010102000000001111115111100001
because this could be any number of problems
Really? That is very odd. Hmmm. Hopefully someone smarter than me can help you. Maybe you are missing a file in your battle folder. Try playing a brand new game without saving with the simpler, smaller sized battle.lgp and let me know if it crashes the game. This is something else.Yes,I've done this test with the original game without Bootling, and the problem was not there.
I know what your problem is. It is your battle.lgp file. That file is not compatible with certain parts of the game. I have been having this issue allot. I will put mods into my battle.lgp, making it so the game crashes during certain battles in certain areas.I tried to do as you say, but I am always forced to leave the game and come back and a ball.
The best thing to do is to backup your current battle.lgp, then put it into a separate folder, and put a simpler, smaller battle.lgp file into your original battle folder. Go back to your saved game, get through the battles that you did crash the game in. Then get to the battle that did crash your game. What is this? The game did not crash? Nice! After this battle and a few more, replace the battle.lgp with your bigger, backed up battle.lgp that you have originally used.
Do this for every-time you hit a battle that crashes your game. Save your game into multiple saves. Save very often, so you can progress father without having to go back far when your game crashes.
Use my trick as well for the char.lgp. I have had the game crash on me at certain parts of the game with my char.lgp file. Just like you would with your battle.lgp file, back up and put into a separate folder your current char.lgp. Then temporarily replace it with a smaller, simpler char.lgp.
I hope this is a quick fix for you and others. It works for me all the time.
Hi kanelakisMy OS and Windows Xp Professional Sp3 32 Bit

I had a similar issue a few weeks ago. So it was as simple as replacing the battle models for Yuffie in battle.lgp with a LGP editor?I solved it by replacing the file battle.lgp contained in the installation CD.
I wonder if any Yuffie LGP models work, now that I think about it...
Did I help fix this problem?You could solve this problem,ajthedj747?
Simply re-running Bootleg without the AC Yuffie option ticked will NOT remove the broken Yuffie model.Thanks I solved it.
You should start with a fresh installation of FF7.
At the very least, replace .\data\battle.lgp with the original version from the CD-ROM before running Bootleg again.

this mod has to be installed manually after running bootle 0039.How to unpack?
pitbrat does have a date in mind and hes doing what he can to stick to it.
from what i witnessed pitbrat seems pretty thorough and will include just about everything into bootleg
P.S.S. I am keeping my eyes on this mod for the main characters: http://forums.qhimm.com/index.php?topic=13489.0But this mod beta version is good for 039 Bootleg?
I'm running the downloaded version 2012 from SE website. I managed to install everything and the game looks awesome now and i love the difficulty mode. But, the FMV i think (cut scenes or movies) are gone. At the boot loader, i have specified the movie path to: C:\Game\FFVII\FINAL FANTASY VII\movies but nothing happens. I'm not sure what i'm doing wrong, i'm going to do another installation to choose some other movie mods to see if it helps.It is normal that the functions you must first convert the old version of the 1998.
@kanelakisOk,i send a message,I hope you respond soon.
I believe those were made by BloodShot, but I don't know if they are available to the public. You should message and ask him: http://forums.qhimm.com/index.php?action=pm;sa=send;u=5124
Can someone help me?You are using the original game? If you try to follow this tutorial, I helped a lot:
I finished doing the conversion to the 2012's version to the 98's and all the things with bootleg 39
