@Soul XXcult

That question was for someone else. I replied to you in the post above it.

"You need to install to a non-system folder, such as C:\Games\FF7."

Where you talking to me EQ2Alyza
 
Yeah the 1998 version I know full well the 2012 version wont work with mods.
 
I might have a problem: Everything really works fine just, also I hear some of the sounds. Menu and combat slashes...but no music. Maybe somebody knows...?
Graphics work fine btw.

Well if you have already run the converter successfully you should have those files, something may have gone wrong. After running my converter you should have a file called
copyfiles.bat
which should be in the root of your FF7 folder (in your case E:\Final Fantasy VII\) this is run on installation of the converter but i left it there even after installation just incase this sort of thing happened, run this BAT file and it should put the .BIN files into the right place (go to E:\Final Fantasy VII\data\kernel once its done to check). And if the BAT file isn't there then you didn't install the converter properly and you should probably start from the beginning again (i mean uninstall all FF7 stuff and start again if you can or maybe just try installing the converter again).
also the ff7input.cfg isn't something to worry about, it isn't required to run the game (unless you are on a laptop or a keyboard without a numberpad its pretty useless)

Okay thanks, I ran the BAT file and the files still aren't available, I'll past the text from the file to see if this is what it was meant to be, I'm going to try running your new 0.3 version to see if this helps, but below is the info from the BAT file:

xcopy /Y data\lang-en\battle\*.bin data\battle
xcopy /Y data\lang-en\kernel\*.bin data\kernel
xcopy /Y data\lang-en\movies\*.avi data\movies

Update: I found the files and copied them over myself and the game now runs! However still getting the Access Denied error with Bootleg.
Here's a screenshot of the error

A new little problem, who happened today.
I have all modes with bootleg installed correctly, it works, but I have a 'music time lag' of 5 at 10 seconds approximately between each screens.
For example, in fight, the music when I win a battle comes 5 seconds later, and the music return to the world( for me at trains graveyard in Midgar ), does the same thing..
Have you ever saw this ?

EDIT : I don't know really how, but seems to be solved.. I just changhed in FF7music.exe input/output plugin dll path's. Worked strangely before but.. if it works fine :)

Hi Pitbrat. Was wondering if you are going to include Omzy's FFVII Field Pack in the new bootleg config? Thanks.

Do not run Bootleg from the Desktop. Move your Bootleg0039 folder to E:\FINAL FANTASY VII before you run the install.

Yeah I get the exact same error when I do that one
 
can any one help me please.
Click to expand...
I think that those 'error' logs are normal. I had the same approximatively.

Nothing to say but, just for my curiosity, in BootLoader, plugins tab, what post-processing shader do you have configured ? Are they so different for image looks ?

Go to your Bootleg.exe, right-click open Properties, and under the Compatibility tab check the box "Run this program as an administrator". Then click Apply and OK.

Hang in there and try not to stress too much. These errors have been posted before and usually come up with solutions. Just keep reporting back here  :)

Post processing was boom ordinary but I can not even get the game to load at all everything installs and I configure it but when it come to start a game it turns black for a brief second then crashes to the desktop.

Those errors always appear. They can just be ignored.

Can you please post your APP.txt from the installation folder.

I can't tell if your graphics card isn't supported, or if you didn't set up your FF7Config correctly. Let's eliminate one of those by doing this for me...

1. Open FF7Config inside your FF7 installation folder.
2. Click on the Graphics tab --- It should say "Self test passed! ... "
3. Click on the Sound tab --- Make sure your Sound Driver is set correctly. If it is blank, the game will not start.

Try playing the game now and let me know what happens.
