Been lurking on here for a bit, made an account to ask this (can't find answers in a quick browse of thread).
7th heaven is brilliant and works a treat most of the time. I was having issues and have narrowed it down to this: When I run ff7config the first time and pick a sound driver (my speakers), but then open it again later after i've installed mods and everything to change it to my headphones (siberia v2 USB), the game doesn't function properly.
When I launch the game there's a faint red that glows instead of where the eidos movie etc usually play. When i press a button it goes to the old (un-modded) menu and it appears none of the mods are running. What's happening here and how do I fix it ? :s

I found a texture bug. Not sure which mod is causing it. Basically the Hand cursor that goes over clouds head and gives you green and red arrows for exits and ladders was working fine until I went to the tutorial area in the sector 7 slums. I talked to the construction guy who tells you about the "Finger" and it made the textures go from normal to greyish squares that look like when your t.v. is on a station that doesn't function.

about texture issue, here another one: in the shinra president's desk room (shinra 70th floor), with the "preserved détails" field texture pack, i have some white big square there and there

and another bug: the fight against the zolom snake, i am instead fighting against rufus... (but if i start the game with ff7.exe, so non modded game, i am against zolom, no bug so)

ps: yeah, so, the zolom bug is linked to the menu overhaul, oh and i'm playing the french version of the game, that's maybe because of that (also with this mod, the name of all the elements, materias and stuff is in English)

Just to double check, we no longer need Reunion?

Menu Overhaul and Memory Patches from The Reunion are added, but everything else is still waiting for the release of R02.

Been awake the whole Night to get 7H to work with New Threat. Now my only problem is the Menu Overhaul.
When I install it via 7H i get graphical glitches (see pictures below) and when I manualy install it I can't start the game. Is there another way to make the menus easier on the eyes?  ;D



It's also brighter than without the overhaul.

the problem is to do with syncing, did manage to get round it myself and get it working.

you need to do a fresh install, then new threat, then 7H game converter, then Reunion and only the MO part, sega chief suggest using without the 9999 limit break.

Finally add "mods\Reunion" to the extra folders bit and you should be good to go

However the movies will want to load from the CD only, to make them load from the movies folder and have it to be as perfect as possible you then need to do the following

Create a back up of you final fantasy folder, then you need to install 7H game converter again to the non back, finally change your back up to be the main and the main to a back up or delete  and you should be good to go, worked for me :)

mhhh, i had used the stand alone Menu Overhaul that came with Tifa's Pack because i wasn't able to find a Download for Reunion in the official Thread. If someone could link me to the Reunion Installer, that would be much appreciated :)

Edit: Found it http://forums.qhimm.com/index.php?topic=14914.0

It works alright so far, but wasn't the command Box to be different, with better organized spells? Thank you for the great help so far.

unfortunately this is the best we can get without totally messing and breaking the way 7H works.

anything else causes a desync totally messing up the game :(

Then I guess I can finally stop modding and start playing NT :D

If you do notice any bugs though please note them down as im compiling a list for Sega Chief

I should mention that it should go without the 9999 limit break, but it should be fine either way; player and enemy attacks won't really approach that cap (with the exception of fixed formula attacks like Everyone's Grudge).

By the by, thanks for helping out here RedManMark; I didn't notice that the last few posts here were related to NT.

NT is not required to install before using 7H. I haven't updated the catalog to the latest NT mod yet. I have all the files ready but super busy IRL to get it live. Once I do, it'll be posted. You also must use the Game Converter 7H Version from Step 1, which goes without saying, but sometime folks skip it for whatever reasons.  Try checking your OpenGL driver configuration -> Textures Cache unchecked, Texture Memory 768/1024 to work with those glitchy textures.

Because ChaOs will overwrite their weapons. Load the weapons before ChaOs. If you still have white textures then it is either a problem of the weapons mod or your system isn't good enough to display the texture. My guess is that my model does not load the texture stores. Try this

Load it after the weapon mod and before ChaOs.

Where should I place "Field Models - Characters, Enemies and Objects"

On the priority list.
I cannot get it running.

I'm using
Chaos
Battle Models - Weapons
Field Models - Characters, Enemies and Objects
Battle Models - Characters
Battle Models Enemies
Battle Textures
Field Textures
Spell Textures
World Textures
Animations
Minigames - Chocobo Race
Media - Music and Sound

in that order currently, but I cannot get "Field Models - Characters, Enemies and Objects" to work ( No Materia Edits, Save Edit, Potion Edits are working, I'm assuming the field models are cause they look fine. )

EDIT: Fixed.

Okay, so just to clarify. If mods simply refuse to download and do NOT give an error (they simply stay at 0% permanently), is that still just Google Drive being a butt?

Also, is Red Werewolf's configuration supposed to look LITERALLY identical to Gameplay - Difficulty and Story?
