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

You could replace the modified FF7.exe with the originals by Square Enix
http://www.gamefront.com/files/2952477/Final-Fantasy-7-Retail-v1.02-Patch/
But you would lose some modifications or worse, the game does not work with it.
So renaming the FF7.exe before.

thanks mate but i managed to track the culprit down to DEP. simply turning it off will do. (a quick google search will teach you how). leaving this here for anyone else with the same issue to stumble upon. ive noticed quite a few guys out there with similar issue as me.

Seems as if the "[Gamefolder]\data\menu\menu_us.lgp" is broken.
An original is on the installation CD.

thanks for the responds. tried replacing it with the original copy from the disc but problem persist.

i manage to get the game to run after removing menu overhaul and reinstalling.
