Unfortunately, it no longer seems to work, and just breaks down and crashes at random intervals.

I guess this really doesn't work with the Steam Re-Release.

This doesn't seem to work on the Steam 2013 version. I followed the instructions, but some steps seem to be out-of-place or non-applicable (For example, step 9 doesn't look anything like what it does in your screen shots.)

I'm using the torrent package, with all the mods, but when I start the game with 1920x1080, it crashes, immediately. It will load the title screen when I remove "Preserve Aspect", but it crashes immediately after selecting New Game in the same manner, with only a black screen.

After working with the Game Converter, I was able to get past this and start the game. Immediately after starting the game, in the first FMV while the stars are moving, the game crashes. The Applog returns the following:

I made sure to set my Sound Device in FF7 Config. There were a few errors (Mostly just the incorrect number of files errors from Menu Overhaul) that came up during installation, like the following, which appeared twice:

Error in blackbgb: converting to field failed, Attempted to read 323135 bytes from 36fe

Has this been tested? Or was it just stated that the Steam version would work with it on the assumption that it was the same version as the 2012 Square Enix one? Or am I just doing something wrong? I'd really like to play the game with these mods, and I appreciate the work you've all done with this, but it's looking increasingly like it can't be done.


EDIT:

With a little luck and some setting changes, I've managed to get into the First Reactor and through a few battles, to the first save point. Hopefully, no more errors will appear~ Now, I just need to configure my Xbox 360 controller to work with it.
