Missing Char Files?
« on: 2013-07-14 18:28:49 »
Hi I have obtain the game from Steam so I used steam mover app - I assumed this is not best method?

I have managed to run the game fine up to New Game/Continue Game Screen - after Clicking New Game, blank screen and error keep popping up.

The pop up error message I get is Missing BVJF.yos file?

I looked into Char folder and it is empty?

I assumed it need to do step 0 process, this is Window 7 OS I am running atm.

You CAN use the FF7_GameConverter, prevents some problems with the registry.
But Bootleg also has its own "new to old patch", if you use Win 7 and the English version of FF7 did that should work.

I guess you have too little space on your hard drive, especially in the temp folder.
That's happened to me sometimes and I then wondered where the LGP file remains...

Choose a temp folder at a hard drive where more space.
