Troubleshooting / FF7 backgrounds and music (Help with Steam version)
« on: 2013-07-11 09:45:54 »
Hello everyone,
I'm new to the community and I don't have any experience in modding. I don't really know where to post this.
I bought the Steam version of FF7 two days ago, and like many people I'm having troubles with the backgrounds. They're ugly and full of pixels. I understand that this is because they were made for the PS1 and have a low resolution but I was so amazed by their beauty, back in the days when playing on PS1, that this really bothers me.
There are only 2 things I'd like to mod in FF7 : backgrounds and music. So here are my questions :
- I'm french (and I apologize for any english mistakes in this post
) and I'm playing on a french version bought on steam. Can I mod it ? Will it be working in french ?
- How do you mod the steam version ? I read the tifa's bootleg tutorial and I understand that I have to relocate my steam folder (which is in Program Filex86 at the moment). Does this mean that I have to reinstall all my games ? Can i relocate it without reinstalling everything ?
- I'm only interested in changing the 2D backgrounds and the music. What mods should I download to do this ? How should I proceed ? As I said, I read the tutorial but I am still confused on the steps to follow.
I'm really looking forward to playing to this game again and enjoy it ! Thanks in advance for your help, and thanks for all the good work that is being shared here !
