I think it's the FF7MUSIC.ini

You need to download a FF7MUSIC.ini from an older FF7Music release, or from somewhere. The FF7MUSIC.ini that came with the v1.51 was either non-existent, or empty (for my case).

If viewed using Notepad, the correct FF7MUSIC.ini it should contain lots of track titles, etc.
 
just fixed it... the problem was my hdd. i have to reformat it. it contains errors. now it works perfectly. my hdd is partitioned so there's no problem in installations.  :lol:

BTW! the ff7music.ini that i posted was correct.
 
Guys I got same prob as Terra, could someone post an older version of FF7music or just the ini file pls?
 
I have followed every advice that people have put on this forum put whenever i play FF7 with FF7music, there is no music that comes out!!! all the plugins are set everything is set to the instructions!!!

Also when i go into config on the game, they say the music is "not suported" that must be it but how do i resolve it??

*Update* got music but it is still very distorted and sounds like a bad record does anyone know why this is?? or had the same trouble?

The reason why it says the music cant be supported is because you have to set it to this in the config, cause this is ONLY for the midis. That way, you here no midis anymore as your mp3s should be running. However, in my case I set everything like the instructions say and it still doesnt work
 
I was missing ficeconsole.dll that is why it didn't work but the music is still distorted and it is not coming out as it should!!

Ideas please

I have vista and all patches are installed and the midis are off so why is it still not workin??
 
I followed every advice to get FF7Music to play in game but it still plays midi. I turn the midi off, no sound. I have the ficelib 1.10 and the input and output are in the main FF7 folder. My input is the in_psf.dll and output is out_wave.dll here is the log...

What did you exactly do to solve your problem? didnt quite understand
 
I turned the in-game volume (found under Music and Sound Settings in the Config menu in the game) off
 
damn I have already done that. Could someone pls send a link to an already configured, perfectly working ff7music?
 
Well this is interesting, i can get the MP3's to play, but when i try to configure the MIDI music volume to 0 ingame, i get http://img201.imageshack.us/my.php?image=notworkingcn7.jpg

Still i can hear the damn MIDI playing on the background, help please? I have integrated Realtek audio system


<E> There's a solution already, look a page back: ) stupid me

Hi evereyone. I installed FFVIIMusic, and it was working great with MP3s. Then all of a sudden, nothing. No MP3s, psf, or cdtracks. ANd I have no idea what the reason could be. I went back and checked, everything seemed to be correct. Anyone think they could help? Thanks.
 
hm,may i suggest a new guide? all those posts are quite confusing and i dont get it to work :/

wow,it did work actuaylly,after i have removed the cetra patched exe ^^"

Add me to the list of people who can't get this to work properly.  Probably thanks to Vista.  If I mute the in-game volume it mutes the sound effects too.  If I remove the midi.lgp file it works but I have no backups for tracks.  Ugh....
 
Abit of topic - has any one listened to the Crisis core sound track - there are a few reworked FF7 tracks in there which would go well with FF7 music...
"Those who fight" and "The world's enemy" (Sephy's theme) from CC are superb :D I'm also thinking of a way to incorporate in "The price of freedom/Why"
 
Alright so I've been working two days straight on getting all these patches worked out here and there. I've got everything running smoothly except for ff7music.

This is what's going on: I have done everything possible so far but I think this is the problem.


Basically, in the program(I'm using the newest one too) under the files tab, no music shows up. In the older version I tried earlier all the songs showed up and you just changed the source, but in the newer one there are no files there. I've got all my files renamed and sorted out, but I don't know how to get ff7music to play those files.

You can AIM me if you want, or just reply here. I really need help and I'd appreciate any assistance I can get. Thanks in advance!
 
Wow, I'm glad you posted that link.  It never even occurred to me to edit the missing songs into the ini :roll:

I should feel embarrassed, but I'm too excited to add in all the missing ones.  THANKS!
 
ridley, my "nointro.mp3" won't show up in the profile for ff7music. I went to edit the ini file, but it's already there under the profile I'm using so it should be showing up. I are puzzled!

Do I have to edit the ones with all the numbers and letters before the songs? Because it's not listed there, just under the profiles. And its not at all represented in the program.


Also, those of you looking for remixed tracks, go to newgrounds.com for some unique ones. I've found a lot that aren't on OCR.
