7th Heaven / Re: 7th heaven won't launch game

« on: 2020-02-05 13:32:01 »

I was struggling with what I believe to be the same issue yesterday.  I think there was an issue with how 7th Heaven interacts with a Windows 10 Update that landed at some point if that's your OS.  I was able to launch FF7.exe but not launch the game through 7th Heaven.  My problem included and error code, though (Code 5), in the first line of the string.

When I resolved it, I was able to right click 7th Heaven, enter properties>compatibility mode, and then choose to always run as administrator, apply, close.
I then right clicked FF7.exe, went into properties>compatibility mode, and had it run in 640x480.
I don't know if this is the exact thread I viewed, but if not it was similar to this one.

I don't know if this will help you, since the error string isn't giving you an error code, but it could potentially be worth a shot if nothing else is working and someone with sager advice doesn't come along.

7th Heaven / Re: Flash Drive Misplaced

Resolved, as flash drive was eventually found.  Mods can feel free to close, delete, etc.  Still slightly curious if simply inserting a new Flash Drive and renaming it would have done the trick, though.

7th Heaven / Flash Drive Misplaced

« on: 2020-02-04 12:08:51 »

So, with all the renewed interest stirred up by remake and having already beaten vanilla on my Switch a couple times now, I decided I'd finally try out New Threat.  Unfortunately, when I went to fire it up I remembered the FF7DISC1 Flash Drive part of my setup from years back, and cannot find my old flash drive.  A quick check seems to indicate save files were stored there, but I believe the game files still seem to exist on the computer still.  I don't want to break anything, so could anyone advise me on what I need to do to replace anything potentially missing if I pick up a replacement drive?  (Folders, files, etc.)  Thanks for any advice.
