As of Bootleg 0039, Grimmy's AC Cloud is not compatible with all of Slayersnext's weapons.
Slayersnext's Buster sword is not compatible with Grimmy's AC Cloud.
Bootleg installs Millenia's Buster sword instead.

Bootleg 040 will allow you to configure each of Cloud's weapons individually.
All combinations of weapon work with all Cloud models.

I only use the Hi-Res Classic Cloud, so the weapons don't work with it as well.  But that's awesome that bootleg 40 will let you config Cloud's weapons.  Thanks for the answer Pit


@IHIavok96 its probably something wrong with ulgp failing to update the battle.lgp. Luksy is working on the next version in the mean time ill pm u how to do it manually

Thanks Squall, I'll give that a read and see if it helps. I love me some buster sword! So much so I change other swords to look like it. lol 


EDIT That did the trick like a charm. Got the Buster sword in I want.  Thanks Squall  I so didn't want to have to reinstall everything. hehehe

Yeah I was wondering about that. I have used the converter. I can't even get the game to run without bootleg atm, so I'm not sure what I can do to rectify, can these files be made available by somebody out there? I followed EQ2Alyza's converter tutorial so not sure where I could have gone wrong!
Edit: It also says ERROR: could not open file E:\Final Fantasy VII\ff7input.cfg which also doesn't exist in my directory
Click to expand...
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)
 
Are you using a non-English version of Windows?
I think it may be a problem with Bootloader finding CD-Rom drives.
I've changed the way Bootloader populates the data drive list.  Hopefully this error is fixed.

Those log file errors are normal.  This happens when installing Menu Overhaul to a non-English game.

Ok thank you so much PitBrad, I don't know how but I succeded translating in French. I have just menus in game in English, but items names and dialogs are in fr.
Is there a way to have menus traduced too ?
All the other is traduced, so it would not be so horrible fir me if not

EDIT : I think that it's Aeris revival check case to the bootLoader who brings ly FF7 not traduced.. strange, but checking that box disables the fr traduction.

Mods like Hardcore, Aeris Revival and Menu Overhaul ReTranslation are in English.
These mods are not translated.
The text contained in FF7.EXE is English only.
I do not have access to the translated text for FF7.EXE.
I will greatly appreciate anyone who can provide the translated text for FF7.EXE in touphscript format.
 
will this work with this http://finalfantasyviipc.com/us its a ff7 digital download. or should i just keep trying with the cd one i have it installed on a win 7 64 bit and i keep having issues so i though this mite work better

never mind found out there was a converter

If I give you a French fflevel.lgp does it helps you ? It's in this file I believe there are some translated texts
How I can help you for this ? Extracting with thoughScript texts from my ff7_fr for example ?

The French, Spanish, German and Italian translations are available for most of the game files.
A touphscript compatible FF7.EXE translation is missing for French and Italian.
 
I'm trying to use the HRC_resizer for the CTCC 3.0 but is not working T_T. i'm getting this error.
Component 'COMDLG32.OCX' or one of its dependencies not correctly registered: a file is missing or invalid.

Just download and copy the file  'COMDLG32.OCX' to the folder of touphscript, try google, our http://windowsxp.mvps.org/comdlg32.htm

The amount of text in the file is very small, only translate from English to the language you want.

The touphscript is still very bad for translation if we take into account that he always rejects the extraction of scrips if the source file is very different from the original. Prefer translate flevel.lgp with Loveless.
 
Hello again I recently had to do a complete system restore and reboot everything. Anyway I reinstalled FF7 to c:\ff7 then whent to install the bootleg39, also I put the temp ff7 folder in public documents and ran everything as admin.

Giving us the log of those errors would help a lot more than seeing which mods you install
 
My game just crashes after I do anything in the game is it because of a missing file?

did you do the config in ff7config.exe?
graphics driver set to custom
sound and midi are your personal

also for fullscreen you have to set the resolution to the same as your pc

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

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