mod malfunctions...the vamp patch

[kurenai]

im trying to add most of the mods to my ff7 the "neat compilations patch"

and i was having problems with the vamp patch.

i copy the patch folder and delete the patches i dont want then i transfer the files into the main ff7 folder.

once i do that and i start the install bat. none of the patches install, only the 9999 limit exceed.

and then once i do that it seems to delete the ff7.exe file... which i dont seem to understand?

whats going on here?

Seeing as all you say is Vamp, all I can assume is that you installed AnimeVamp patch for Windows XP, in which case....
I think for once I might actually be sick of repeating myself.

Do a search for "AnimeVamp"  I'm sure you'll find out all about it.

[kurenai]

sorry about that but i meant vista... does that work for the same?

ill try it in the meantime

[dziugo]

So, where did you download it from?

[kurenai]

ummm i downloaded it from the torrent reactor...and it comes with most of the patches.

it worked fine when i did it on my laptop...but now that, thats broken and i have moved on...

it does seem to work.

Okay, here it is.

AnimeVamp patch = Patch to make FFVII work perfectly on XP
Problem = It's a well known virus.

I'm pretty sure it's about YAMP. The version you downloaded from the torrent is probably not the newest one - it will give you problems while installing on Vista if the FF7 resides in "Program Files". Also, running install.bat as administator is usually needed.

[kurenai]

ok well ill try running it as an admin.

hopefull that works... 

[kurenai]

it worked!

so i think i have installed all the patches and now my only problem is the black screen when i start a new game... any suggestions ppl?

maybe some can send me a file save of the first save in the beginning of the game when you get in the reactor?

maybe that will work...but i am welcome to any suggestions

It's covered in the FAQ.

[kurenai]

ok so if i download that patch, can some one explain how to install it?

cuz the faq doesnt say how.

You can try double-clicking on it.

[Some Guy]

The YAMP patch comes with me a Readme file, when downloaded.  It tells you how to install it in greater detail than the FAQ.

[kurenai]

yeah i think i got it to work....

thanks!
