Hey all!
First I wanted to thank you all for your job which I have enjoyed for... let's say 5 minutes, no more
I'm using bootleg040 and I am not able to make it working, I don't know why...
I used the preset "Full" and I got all mods needed (no red mods listed), so I desactivated both my firewall and antivirus and launched bootleg mod's installation.
I have no error message during it (only the error message noted in the log.txt file, which is obviously not important).
I choosed "custom driver" as graphic driver, and I choosed my audio codec aswell.
My OS is Windows XP. I am running it with a ATI Radeon and AMD processor. I'm playing "Hardcore mod" (at least I am trying)
First strange thing: nothing happens when I'm trying to change "configure-things" from BootLoader.exe. I change some things, click on "writte" but obviously nothing is written in the ff7_opengl.cfg file. There is only one line written:
# Load Multiple DLLs
load_library = Multi.dll
I have been be able to fix it by initializing the ff7_opengl.cfg file, by copy/paste (I found code's example I don't remember where, but that was here). So, now, I can change options and it's fine.
But then I had the following problem:
My game crashed during the first battle (Cloud versus 2 shinra guards) with the message "oops something bad has happened."
My battle-toolbar was fucked so I suspected the MO.exe file (the one which change ingame text) to be the responsabale of that crash. So I reinstalled the game, and all mods but without MO.exe.
My game doesn't crash anymore during the first battle (halleluyah!) but now it does randomly after a battle. It happens often; I haven't been able to reach the first savepoint. And always with the same message "oops..."

ERROR: unhandled exception
I changed several option in Bootloader.exe (switching hardcore for normal mod, default, safe, HDR, complex, etc.), but in vain
I would like to play this remasterized game, so I am looking for help!
