Well, I've gotten my new, legal copy of FF7 all patched up, etc.  I've gotten Reunion and the patches working.  But the only problem is, I'm getting CRC32 errors with your Hi-Res because of Fidecula's music patch (or at least someone said that was what it was since I'm using an uncracked version of the .exe.)

Are there any plans to make Hi-Res compatible with the music patch?  'Cause that's the last thing holding back the game on my PC now.

Hey Phyltre, I have the music patch working fine on mine. I'll list what I did to get it to work (I've done it a couple times so it should be fine).
1) extract the FF7 1.02 patch (with the ff7.exe and FF7Config.exe) into the X:\Program Files\Square Soft, Inc\Final Fantasy VII
2) use SaiNt's hi-res patch on the 1.02 patch (it should work fine)
3) use Ficedula's music (go into Cetra & apply music patch - make sure you're in the right FF7 directory
4) then i use the minigame patcher (very nice btw dziugo)
then it all works great
I'm not sur eif its because of your Reunion patch or something (i don't use it since i like the cutesy characters).
Hope this helps.

Try upside-down patch.

Here's the problem I'm having.  With the basic 1.02, I can play the game fine without any graphical problems.  When I apply only saint's hi-res, the game crashes before the opening screen unless I enable one of the nvidia card fix under ff7config.  When I do this, I get the green-grid problem (I researched this on the forums) so that I can't even tell if it's hi-res or not.

Now, when I apply the multi-patch (the geforce fix specifically), I can load the game without enabling either of the nvidia card fixes.   However, I'm back to step one--the hi-res doesn't work!  I'm left with 640x480!

I hope someone has some ideas, personally I'm just about lost.

Whoops, sorry. Thought that it was another "I see black screen instead of movies" problem. Umm... Did you enable Direct3D in ff7 config?

[Blackpearl]

Yes with and withtouth.

edit : i found what the matter is.... reunion patch... well i will play with this low resolution :X

[eraclea]

I don't want to push you... But it seems that all other Questions belonging to that topic are ingored by everyone

Will there be releases of this patch for other language versions of the game in the future, like german, french... and other, if they exist (...)

A simple 'Yes' (not tomorrow but I think sometime within the next ten years) or 'No' (hell, I don't have any reason to do that!) will be sufficiant =D

Thx

[dziugo]

They are ignored (not replied) because you asked The SaiNt .

[eraclea]

Teh, ok, that's a start  

I'll keep asking anyway... Even though my very own english version should arrive in a few days =D Yeah, you hear right, this opportunity to play it in... well... high detail mode (lol) is worth enough for me to by a english version of the game... stupid me =D

[The SaiNt]

It's been answered before that's why I didn't bother to reply.
Anyway, the answer is "Not in the near future"

By the way, I was able to solve this problem (so far) by bumping every single option on my Radeon X800 XL to maximum quality.  It caused a small earthquake, but it worked.

...okay...

First, install the 1.02 patch. Then, this is very important from what I hear, install the Hi-res patch. No other patches should be installed when installing the hi-res patch, except for the 1.02 patch.

Did I get that right everybody?

My understanding from what I have read, is that the multi-patch doesn't work..

i have found the correct name but is no work with world_fr rename in world_us and menu_fr rename in name_us
Please ! Send me original world_us and menu_us
I can't play with High Res an Reunion path...

This may have just been a typo.. but did you actually rename it to "name_us"..?

And, I thought someone had it working with the files renamed..? Have you tried searching Reunion's topic?






@SaiNt: umm.. is there a reason that the patch I just downloaded is .92a...? isn't the newest .99...?


EDIT: fixed my double post right after I did it..

[Decayrate]

Saint Any idea when you are done with the 1600x1200 and the background fix? or are you bussy with somthing else, I Have the xp patch and hirez cloud and 1200x1024 fix on my comp, but I haven't got or had any bugs with FF7 so I think i am a lucky owner
But keep up tha good work saint--------


I like 2 move'it move'it  

[tekwiz99]

up to this point, only the credit slide-show is broken under 1280*960 res, which is i'm using

[djzerious]

What version do you have tekwiz..?

[tekwiz99]

the latest .99

[djzerious]

...can you put it up somewhere, or e-mail it to me..? I seem to somehow have the .92a version... and I have no clue how that happened.....

The links here lead to .92a version...

Either that or the readme and file version info is wrong..... :/

[Shin-sama]

Where do i change the resolution? >_<

There ain't any options.. T_T

[dziugo]

Where do i change the resolution?

To play in hi-res, you check the 640x480 Direct3D in FF7Config.
