Cheers but i already tried those methods and still nothing*sighs* guess im gonna have to get windows 7 and start fresh, appreciate the help :)
If those 2 methods do not work it sounds to me like a more deep rooted problem like something wrong your windows, but I would recomend 7 over vista it just runs better and more efficent

Ok I am having a strange issue where my characters don't ever take damage im sure its one of the settings causing this, little help? No of course invincibility was unchecked. I have tried re running multiple times changing setting each time.

I noticed a while back you said you were waiting to release this until a couple new mods released their new versions. Do we need to re-download any of the mods that we have had since 0038? Thanks PB!

Couple questions:

1. What exactly does "Bootleg Reworked" in the FMV Cutscene setting install?

2. Does "New Spell Names" conflict with the Retranslation?
 
So I'm trying to redo everything with Bootleg 0039 and when it gets to Recovering Remix files it just stops and goes back to BFE. I've run it as admin and everything and it's still doing it. Any clues?
 
Few "bugs" with the BFE:

Under Player Tab:

General:

when I hover with the mouse over Sephiroth, it says "Alter the appearance of Vincent's field and battle model".

Cloud's Swords:

There is no "No change" option. I must choose between Slayersnext, Millennia and Millenia + Mike. Is it intended?
 
I have a bunch of questions, two of which are already asked here above by nickblames.

1) What does "Bootlegged (Best of Show)" means (under Models)?

2) What does "Bootlegged" means (under Textures) - specifically how does it differ from the "BlackFan + SL1982 + FacePalmer" option?

3) What is the difference between "Battle Scenes as LGP" and "Battle Scenes as PNG" and what do they do exactly (under Texture)?

4) What can we get more informations about the "New SoundFX"  (under Game)?

5) What is "Kranmer's Master Control" (under Game)?

6) Is it possible to keep the music system just the way it originally is? I have an excellent SW1000XG Midi card which is able to play MIDI file of such nice quality that no PSX music is really needed. If this is possible, what option should I select (under Game)?

7) What do "Style Switcher", "Status Icon",  "FFX Battle Style", "Olde Style Map" do (under Menu Overhaul)?

Finally let me thank you for having created Bootleg and its Front End, PitBrat! It was really an excellent idea and it's wonderfully executed.

My only suggestion is to perhaps expand on the menu infos as there are many options that aren't so obvious in what they accomplish. The visual cues are really great, when available.
 
My first attempt at installing the Bootleg was not really lucky (using Windows XP SP3):

first of all, my Antivirus (Avira) popped up three times telling me it was denying access to three different files.

Later the installer hung while decompressing FacePalmer's files. I was forced to reboot.  :(

UPDATE: I repeated the exact same procedure after reboot, making sure to have the antivirus not running this time and the installation went fine. It was not clear to me though that to make the game start I am to run FF7 Music?  :?

i just installed ff7 with bootleg 0039 with the new cloud yuffie and tifa models when i put all of the said characters in the party together the games freezes at the start of battle.
install directory f:\ff7

INFO: Brat Code: /@1111070102000000001010110111100111
 
I need help!! When I run bootleg and begin a game (dont have any saves just starting) Cloud and Barett never take damage they are invincible. Why is this happening? I will install 0039 when I get home and see if that changes anything but I know it shouldnt happen with 0038. Please PLEASE help Im so excited to play the game with all the mods but that has me stopped in my tracks.
 
I've tried installing this for a couple of weeks now, but since 39 was just around the corner I thought I'd wait for it before posting anything... And I thought I wouldn't have too. Every single issue I had with the game was fixed by 39... Every important thing anyway. The Barrett model I used however seemed too have some issues, it would jump forth like it was gonna meele attack or steal something and then shoot (also for some reason they went down on their knees even though they were at full health at one point), which was midely anoying so I reinstalled too change model. Now the game don't work... Like at all.

The only thing I changed was the model, from Timu+Kleyon+Asmodean to Timu Simisu... And now when I try too start the game it just wont start up, and when I run it in safe mode it crashes. Reinstalling for whatever reason doesn't work... Which is really wierd if you ask me. So... Help?
 
New version doesn't install for me...at all.

I think i did everything right, i first made a fresh FFVII install to a non system folder, and then i pasted "C:\games\Final Fantasy VII" there, where i installed it. Then i run boot bootleg with BFE (as admin) and i get this:

Make sure that all MODS are in the SAME FOLDER with Bootleg.exe.

Close all open FF7 files and folders before starting Bootleg.

Run Bootleg.exe as ADMINISTRATOR.
For help use the command line switch-- Bootleg /?

Don't use an FF7 Image.
The image you've specified is not valid.

Install the game and run Bootleg without using an image.
Leave the image text box empty.
 
Got any advice for me?.. 'Cause I've not typed anything in the image thingy...
 
One more issue.

After the installation is completed, I choose Play FF7 from the FF7 Bootloader Window. It quickly opens a Dos window where I have barely time to read something about "affinity" then it closes itself. The game of course does not start. If I do it again, what happens is very similar. A Dos window opens up for a fraction of a second and then nothing.

I can still play though if I click instad on the other icon that the Bootleg creates (Final Fantasy VII) which annoyingly enough tells me that there is a newer version of ff7music available (?) - pushing yes doesn't produce any result. After choosing No, a new window (FF7 Music?) minimizes itself to the task bar but if I click on it, the game finally loads without me having even to push on the Play button of the FF7 Music menu.

Is all this supposed to happen?  :?
