OK. Here's what you need to do first: Take your post, delete all of it, then rewrite it using proper English. After that perhaps someone will understand you.

I'll try to "re-write" his message:
"Hi. I've just tested the chocobo patch recently. However, it didn't work. So, I read the FAQ. It told me to change the code (of the patch??). However, I don't know how to change the code. So, I guess I need this program called Visual C++ to re-write the code(?)....
I need to change the code.. urgently. Can anyone tell me where I can obtain this program?? If possible, do give me a link to it. Thank you very much."

The answer is....  C++ is a programming language, and Visual C++ is a software used to write C++ based programs (Well, I think it can do other stuffs other than that, but I'm still new in programming, so....). And C++ isn't free, go and check Microsoft's website if you're interested in it.

Edit - and oh yeah, do correct me if I'm wrong about the C++ thing, cuz' I can't be 100% certain that I'm correct. Thank you in advance!!!  :)

I think the "Change the code" that he is referring to is the need for the use of a hex editor to edit the code of the EXE manually.  You can get UltraEdit-32 (the program I used to patch my FF7) from www.download.com .

Did you get the same error as before the patch, or was it different?

The main reason I'm asking is to determine if your crashing was due to the Chocobo crash or to something else... (I have the something else crash... It's a bitch...)

I thinki if (s)he doesn't know what VC++ is, (s)he doesn't need to care 'bout changing the code ... hehe ... I think at least our programmers know that you need to know a programming language well to change its code (especially if it's made by a skilled programmer like Qhimm)

So ... I'm not sure, but I think this topic won't lead to something useful :(
