Fest,
Disable the 9999 limit break in the Bootloader Configure window.
This is not compatible with the Menu Overhaul 9999 limit break.

Q:Why are the battle text, ATB, HP, and Mana bars all messed up during battles?
A:9999 Limit Breaker is enabled in Aali's driver configuration. Disable it in FF7_Opengl.cfg.
  break_9999limit = no
 
Hello I managed to get this working but when I use the configurator to change resolution that is fine but I keep getting a prompt saying no modes installed but I selected the lost wing overhaul any idea why it not coming up or is that it is installed but just not comes up on the prompt.
 
The game will always run with Lost Wing enabled.
Do use mode switching, you have to select one of the two options that state Mode Switching.
Otherwise, the game only installs with the files necessary to run in the 1 selected mode.
 
Thanks for that pitbrat also is it possible to have the hd title video sequence like in the remix installer and the hd opening video that plays just before the bombing mission.

Also when I come to the first battle and I attack the game completly freezes up and I have to exit via the way ctrl+alt+delete and close application any idea dude thanks for all the help you provided me pitbrat.

P.S do you need me to provide you with a the crash dump file let me know.

The crash at the first battle is because Menu Overhaul ReTranslation is not compatible with Lost Wing.
You'll have to reinstall the game and Bootleg.
Make sure to disable ReTranslation if you are using Lost Wing.
There is currently no way to make the ReTranslation work with Lost Wing.

I haven't offered the level of customization you requested for videos.  There's no feasible way to provide previews of the videos.  You can manually extract the video files and place it in the .\MOVIES\ folder.
 
Also I downloaded trisha's custom model pack and placed it in the bootleg folder but it is not turning greenon the mod menu  what up with that is it a glitch or have I done something wrong.
 
it's an error with the file name.
Change the file name to match this:
Trish(aka Mike)'s custom model pack.7z
 
When I play windowed, if I activate another window and type, if any of the keys I type happen to be used as in-game keys, they pass into the game. For example, I have my main keys as "ASDF" and if I use any of those keys in a browser or IM window, it uses them in game, even without the window focused. How can I stop this?

This is not a problem related to Bootleg, and cannot be fixed, sadly. I had this problem with Vanilla FF7 too. Well, Vanilla being with Aali's driver and FF7Music. I *think* it might be FF7Music, but it is not such a big deal IMO, although I'll agree it can piss you off (sometimes I put the game on pause, write to someone else, then when I come back my party has been defeated).

Also, I'm back on the forums. While I have less time to read the posts, I am always on IRC and MSN, and I DO read my PMs. For those with an IRC client, use irc://irc.esper.net/Vgr and for those who don't, use http://scenes.at/VgrChat instead. PitBrat will come there whenever he can, so this is useful if you need help. I will always read my messages whenever I have one.

Yeah I done that and still it is red  grrrr >:(
 
Hello!

I've just started getting into these mods and I installed bootleg. First of all, I want to say thank you and congratulation to everyone who participated in this, it looks really great!

I have a few questions/problems  ;D.

1) Imagine I have forgotten something in the initial bootleg window, or if I want to change a style (say change Tifa's haircut), can I change it in the BFE.exe and apply? Or will it re-install everything? If the latter, how am I supposed to make such a change?

2) After having downloaded all the "red" files, I clicked on "Run bootleg" and everything went right except from one error saying a file was corrupted (ff7_enhanced_movies_1.part1 I think). What should I do? Again, do I have to re-install everything or is there a way to fix only that?

3) During battles, the menu displaying HP and stuff is messed:

Is there a way to fix it?

Thanks in advance =).
 
To make any changes or repair damaged files you need to run BFE again and reinstall Bootleg completely.
It's best to do this on a fresh maximum install of FF7.

A:9999 Limit Breaker is enabled in Aali's driver configuration. Disable it in FF7_Opengl.cfg.

I had the same problem. I discovered that there we 2 separate Trish(aka Mike)s custom model pack.7z entries. One was "Trish(aka Mike)'s custom model pack.7z" and the other was "Trish(aka Mike)_s custom model pack.7z"
What I wound up doing was I clicked one link, waited for it to download and added the ' or the _ in the corresponding file, bootleg will have the file name it is supposed to be, after that bootleg completed without an issue.

On a side note, I was having the FF7Music problem that Anyguy had where I had sound but no music. If I disable FF7Music I have the old MIDI but no matter what I have tried I cant seem to get any of the remakes to play. Was there a solution that I didn't see? I have searched the forums but I can't seem to find anything helpful.

Thanks a lot for the quick answer! Oh so I need to reinstall it all... I guess that's what I'm going to do.

Woah the menu thing was due to that option? I would never have found it by myself, thank you for your help, it works fine now!
 
There is a bug in the way Bootleg installs FF7Music.
You need to manually extract OSTRe.7z into the folder .\FF7Music\OSTRe\


Q:Why is there no sound in the game?  Why is the music playing from a different sound device than the game sounds?
A:You need to configure the sound and/or MIDI device.
  Run .\FF7Config.exe as Administrator
  In the SOUND tab, select the 'Sound Driver'
  In the MIDI tab, select the 'MIDI Driver' and the 'MIDI Data'
  Click OK to save the settings
  Open the Volume Mixer
  Adjust the volume for the playback device, applications and FF7 executable

I'm trying to start a project to translate the FF7.exe game text into French and Italian.
Does anyone want to help?

Any plans to make it compatible?
Since Lost Wing is the only mod (i know of) which allow to PHS Sephiroth  :-(
 
I contacted VGR about modifying Lost Wing to work with Menu Overhaul ReTranslation.
He's responsible for converting Lost Wing to PC.
I'm not sure that Lost Wing will ever work with the ReTranslation.
Lost Wing should work with Menu Overhaul so long as the ReTranslation option is disabled.
 
So im guessing the reasonable mod by Hay is not going to be compatible with the retranslation also?
 
The Reasonable Difficulty mod should work with ReTranslation.
I'm certain to find out after 0039 is available.

I already have nearly all of the game text in French.
The only part of the game that is not translated is the text contained within FF7.exe.
There isn't that much left to translate.  It's mostly the menus and battle text that remains in English.

Here is the English text that needs translated to French and Italian.
German and Spanish are completed.
