Hi,

Any ideas why I get only Software Renderer in FF7 Configuration? I switched to a newer laptop with GF760M and there's no Custom driver available. Tried to use older Aali 7.11 but FF7 Configuration doesn't even show up now.
 
get the 0.8.1b from the alternate link provide before.
uncompress it inside the game folder
run the ff7config.exe (don't care about the graphics tab, just the sound)
run the .reg, it will configure the graphics
tweak the .cfg
run ff7.exe
enjoy

btw, you need the ff7.exe from the patch 1.02
 
Hi,

Could it be possible to add a runInBacround variable in order to have sound while the game is running in background (without focus).

Actually I when I alt tab, gamepad is still working but can't hear sound :s

Thanks :)

I second this.  I know Aali said I can edit the game to stop it, but I don't know how :P
 
Hello.
I use ozmy field texture pack and have some textures message bug, i can't find any way to disable these errors message like i did in 0.7 version of the driver years ago.
Is there any hidden option to disable all texture message bug or any tool to list all buggy textures and delete them ?

Thanks
 
How do I know that aali's driver is working properly ??

These is the steps i've done..

* Downloaded the aali's driver .zip file
* extracted the .zip file and copy&paste its content  to the installation folder of ff7 (e.g. c:\program files (x86)\Finatal Fantasy VII\))
* Run the .reg file (ff7_opengl.reg)
* Edited the ff7_opengl.cfg file and change the mod path to textures
* downloaded an avatar mod and put it to mods\textures\menu
* started the game & nothing changed..

What am I doing wrong?? pls! anyone can help??

the 'texture' folder is obsolete.
you need to make au mod folder (for exemple \mods\yourmodfolder\menu\) and put your menu png files in it, take care not to have double folder , \mods\yourmodfolder\menu\ is ok but \mods\yourmodfolder\menu\menu\ is ko
then you need to edit ff7_opengl.cfg and set 'mod_path = yourmodfolder'
that's all, it's not good post your question in the mod's post
 
What are you talking about ?? Why would a folder name be obsolete ? And i am asking how can i be sure if i installed aalis driver correctly and if its working properly.. Why would i post on another thread ???
 
just open the app.log inside ff7 install folder.
you'll read in it if aali driver il loaded
 
Is anyone else having issues with the download site? It's just loading,is there another way to get this?
 
There is an alternate download link on the previous page @ Reply #243.
 
Aali I have looked into the field script (with Makoureactor) and it seems that the informations of the pallets for the lightlayers are handled there. Is it possible to override the 16bit pallets with 32bit pallets for the commands.

To  be more precisly it would be clever to  ad the upscale factor (2x, 4x, etc) to  the new lightlayers and multiply this to  the commands.

Please help, I can't get FMV's to play, they were working the first time i used this driver but broke after installing anxious heart, I fail to see how that would break it. I also moved the vids to hdd and changed the registry to point there and the videos still won't play, all I get is ERROR: can not open movie file.

OK, It's decided to work now!?

I've figured it out, changing the movie directory breaks it even if I change it back, the only way is to reinstall and leave the movie directory alone in regedit.
