Bootleg Questions / Re: [Tutorial] Tifa's Bootleg

user1990,
Make sure to run BFE as administrator.
Close any virus protection software.
Something is blocking Bootleg from copying files to the game folder.

I have bootleg.exe and BFE.exe set to run as administrator
Both of my antiviruses (MBAM and Microsoft Security Essentials) are turned off
and the directories are all non-program-files folders

Running windows 7 64 bit

Could this error be related to the game files?  Or is it definitely a permission issue

Just like that other guy I quoted, the 2012 version runs fine (ff7_launcher.exe) but the old version (ff7.exe) just crashes when I run it. 
I opened ff7config.exe and under the graphics tab it said I failed 8 bit paletted textures

Hey I'm having trouble using the bootleg.exe

I run BFE.exe and click "Run Bootleg" but then it just tells me that a bunch of system files are missing (Sprinkles folder, Bootleg_readme.txt...)

Command prompt error message:

BFE installation tab:

Im using the 2012 version btw with kranmers v3.0 installed to C:/Games/Final Fantasy VII
Could it be a problem with the kranmers converter?  Whenever I try to run ff7.exe i just get a black screen for a few seconds, and then a prompt saying it has stopped working
But the ff7_launcher.exe works just fine.
Or am I just doing something stupid with the directories lol

Hi I have the same problem.  Installed game to C:/Games/Final Fantasy VII, put mods and bootleg stuff in C:/Games/Bootleg0039.
BFE installation tab points to C:/Games/Final Fantasy VII for the installed game directory, and to C:/Games/Bootleg0039 for the mods and bootleg.exe

I don't get how it can find the mods just fine but not the bootleg_readme when they're in the exact same folder and both tabs on BFE installation are pointing to the same directory?  And what the heck is the sprinkles folder lol I dont see that anywhere

I bought the new pc version, installed it, then installed kranmer thing to same directory.   I even tried pirating the old version and using the mod on that but that didnt work either.  Same error message (though I think the one I pirated had a mod preinstalled or something idk, all I know is it wasnt the 'ultimate' version or whatever that is)
