I'm using the 7th Heaven mod manager, and after effectively bricking my entire install trying to install an updated reunion mod on top of it (beyond stupid, but I'm a newb at FF7 modding), I've reinstalled everything from scratch, and everything is up and working as it previously was. However, in the "animations" mod pack, when I select the 60fps battles, I get stuttering during fights...this happened in the previous iteration as well. There will be intermittent moments throughout any given fight where it will nearly reach 60fps only to drop back down. I've tried playing with the different render settings in the openGL settings but to no avail. Has anyone gotten this mod/feature working smoothly? Thanks.
 
If youve done everything correctly 60fps full screen mode with vsync should work perfectly
 
Nope. Still stuttering. I've checked everything - load order, config(s); everything else works fine. Ideas? Will a log file help?
 
It's a Dell XPS 8700 - i7 4790, gtx 760, 16gb RAM...which log file did you want me to post? I found three in my FF7 install directory: app.log, Hext.log, and ff7-gc.log.
 
Keep in mind I've found a sort-of workaround by running the game in windowed mode...it's better than fullscreen, but my fps is still by no means 60 during fights.

And the opengl cfg?
Are you using any other mod in 7th heaven? Can you post the profile details?
You have no problems at all in any other game?
 
I'm using every mod available through the 7H tool EXCEPT: minigames: wonder square and coaster, seph story mod, Jessie mod, and the gameplay - difficulty and story mod. Yes, all the others seem to be working perfectly. I turned my fps counter on in game and apparently I'm getting the full 60fps during fights ONLY when windowed...fullscreen averages around 12-15 during fights, with spikes around 30. The rest of the game plays the same regardless of windowed or fullscreen.


# ff7_opengl-0.8.1b config file


## USER OPTIONS ##
## If you just want to play the game, these are the only options you'll want to change.

# set the window size (or fullscreen resolution) of FF7
# 0 means use original resolution in window mode, your current desktop resolution will be used in fullscreen mode
# preserve_aspect adds black borders as needed to preserve a 4:3 aspect ratio
window_size_x = 1920
window_size_y = 1080
internal_size_x = 3840
internal_size_y = 2160
preserve_aspect = on
fullscreen = off

# mod directory
# subdirectroy of mods/ where textures will be loaded from
mod_path = Textures

# check your Nvidia/ATI/Intel control panel settings if this option doesn't seem to work
enable_vsync = on

# allow FF7 to use linear filtering for its textures
# some things look slightly better with this option on, but alot of textures just lose their detail
# only affects low-res textures, high-res replacements will still be filtered where appropriate
linear_filter = off

# plugin used to play music, VGMstream requires a set of looping .ogg files in the music/vgmstream folder.
# If no music plugin is loaded the game will play MIDI as usual but FF7Music will NOT work.
music_plugin = plugins/vgmstream_music.fgp


## ENHANCEMENTS ##
## All the little extras that weren't part of the original game, default options include only trivial bug fixes.

# make all dialog boxes transparent, same effect as the transparent dialog boxes YAMP patch
transparent_dialogs = on

# include armor in magic defense calculation
mdef_fix = yes

# minigame fixes
snowboard_framerate=60
highway_framerate=30
coaster_framerate=60
battleswirl_framerate=60

# post-processing shader, used to apply fullscreen effects
post_source = shaders/SmartBloomAdvanced.post
enable_postprocessing = yes


## ADVANCED OPTIONS ##
## Don't fiddle with these unless you know what you're doing.

# enable alpha blending for textures without an existing blending effect
fancy_transparency = yes

# display frames per second counter in upper right corner
show_fps = on

# display some real-time debug information
show_stats = off

# store external textures in a compressed cache for increased performance
# compression is not lossless, some artifacts may appear when this option is in use
# texture cache does NOT update automatically if the source image changes, however, deleting anything from the cache
# will cause that file to be recreated from the source
compress_textures = yes

# max size of the texture cache to hold in RAM, in megabytes
# don't set it any higher than 1GB unless you want your game to crash
texture_cache_size = 768

# use pixel buffer objects to speed up texture loading
# might crash horribly on ATI cards but should work for NVIDIA users
use_pbo = yes

# use mipmaps (anisotropic filtering) for high-res textures
use_mipmaps = yes

# replace FF7's default framelimiter timer source
use_new_timer = yes

# plugin used to play movies, FFMpeg is the only choice for now
movie_plugin = plugins/ffmpeg_movies.fgp


## MODDER OPTIONS ##
## These options are mostly useful to modders and should not be enabled during normal play.

# read files directly instead of using LGP archives
# for example; if FF7 is looking for aaab.rsd in char.lgp, this option will make it open direct/char/aaab.rsd first,
# if this file doesn't exist it will look for the original in the LGP archive
direct_mode = off

# show every failed attempt at loading a .png texture
show_missing_textures = off

# extern additional library
load_library = Multi.dll
