AWESOME!!!!!! Could you guys please update the Arranged Soundtrack link in the catalog? It seemed that I could not download the file. Thank you so much!!!!!
The server that mod is hosted on is a free service, Google Drive I believe. So with today being a HUGE day for downloading mods, Google has probably restricted the amount of bandwidth/data transfer that can be used for now. Try again later. It is also worth noting that I believe the Arranged Soundtrack is an option in the "Qhimm - Media" mod which is on a different server. It's a big download for sure, but the download will work right now.
 
I keep getting an error that says "Your FF7 installation folder is missing critical file(s). When you installed FF7, you may have accidentally chosen to install the 'Standard Install', but the 'Maximum Install' is required." what am I supposed to do? I'll seriously pay you if you help me.   :-D
Are you using the Steam version or the 1998 version? If you're using the 1998 disc version, just insert any of your FF7 discs and 7th Heaven will fix this problem for you automatically.

If you're using the Steam version, open up Settings>General Settings. Point the FF7 EXE path to either ff7.exe or ff7_en.exe in the correct folder where you have the game installed. Click OK on the warning if you get one, click Save, then try to click Play again. If it doesn't work, are you using the English version of the game? That is required. Also you can try to "verify game files" through Steam as you could be missing files in your game folder. If still no go, try reinstalling FF7 from scratch and try again.
 
I responded to you on YouTube. Your disk is probably read-only, or having hardware issues. 7H can't create a folder that it needs to. Try running a chkdsk and repair errors, or try another HDD/install location.
Hi, yep did see that thanks :)

I have tried installing 7th Heaven on both my external HDD & internal HDD - same thing... I have my FF7 Steam version of the games files on my external HDD.
 
omg it worked! You were right all I had to do was point the ff7.exe. I'm literally about to cry thank you so much <3
 
Yes, you can just copy them. If you RIGHT-click on your "My Mods" tab, 7H will open your mod library in Windows. Select all of your .IRO files there and copy them. Paste/transfer them over to your other PC in that same folder (just right-click My Mods tab to pull it up on the other computer too). After they're done copying, click the "Refresh" button on the sidebar in your My Mods tab.
AWESOME.  Thank you so much.  You've saved me a ton of time.  I still can't get over how easy it was to get FFVII up and going, WITH mods.  I just keep having horrible flashbacks to 10+ years ago when I tried it then and geez.. it was terrible.  :D
 
so juust out of curiosity is there any way to get faster download speeds i have a high Download speed with my net but barely downloading a MB/s

I think downloads might be slow for everyone right now with everyone and their mom tryin to get this set up.. I tried downloading Avalanche Arisen battle scenes and it wouldn't even start. But Enhanced Stock UI just downloaded pretty quick. So be patient, get what you can now, check back for other mods later? That's what i'm going to do.

Edit: I'm having trouble running the game full screen @ 3840x2160. I used to have to change the DPI settings to the ff7.exe to get it working but when I do that now, my game still opens up in super zoomed in and the changes I made to the exe were reset. Any ideas?

in 7th Heaven go to Settings > Game Launcher and check High-DPI Scaling Fix and see if that works

That fixed thank you. I had a feeling that 7th was changing it back when when I launched lol.
 
I'm still seeing the black bar at the bottom of my screen during cut scenes and game play. I've switched the High DPI fix on and off and noticed no change.  I've also tried changing the properties of the FF7.exe but every time the properties reset themselves when I go back in.  I'm playing in 1920*1080 resolution.  Other resolutions and windowed mode produced the same effects.  It is a fresh install with no mods installed yet.  All my settings match the tutorial video.  Any help would be appreciated.

Big Thank you for making the modding process for this game so much easier. But I can't find the Beacause retranslation anywhere in the mod list, and I really don't want to go back to the old translation. Any chance it will be added?
 
I'd like to note that it most definitely DOES delete things. I had an unpacked iro folder in the /mods folder and at some point it decided erasing it completely was a fine idea. I cannot find it in any backup, nor in my recycle bin. Seems gone, completely. Its very lucky that my main creation folder is elsewhere, otherwise I would have lost weeks of work.

The black bar will always be there. It's not an issue with 7H, but with the game. You do not need to set any properties on your EXE anymore. If they are found, 7H removes them (or adds them) based on your settings in 7H.

7H will not and does not delete any mods in your folder unless you click the trash can icon. Period.
 
My controller settings aren't saving. They reset every time I start the game.

You're doing it wrong. ;-)

Read the following:

Or

lol thanks bro. This is so simple to use, a far cry from the original. Congrats to everyone involved and thanks for all the hard work!
 
Any of the big mods 1GB+ will download and then somewhere along the line it'll error out and fail. The Media mod that is hosted on a different server also fails.

Looks like you don't have a stable internet connection or the code 7H uses is more sensitive to connection issues. If you go into your catalog subscriptions, you can "convert" the iros:// URLs to obvious regular URLs on pastebin. Look at the XML code and you can find the download links embedded in them. Try downloading them outside of the catalog via your web browser.

I know it's not my internet connection. Hardlined FTTH 500Mbps+. Downloading via the 7th heaven program is significantly slower and unreliable than via the browser (the downloads often fail). Any files under 1GB I didn't seem to have an issue with. The program seems to also crash when pausing/cancelling downloads in some cases (the download speed showed 0.0kb/sec and wasn't moving).
Downloading manually via browser worked however it also failed in some spots. Speed averaged 2-3MB/sec, although upon monitoring showed a few slow spots here and there during the download.. which is to be expected possibly as a result from high traffic on the server.
It is possible the server may be overtaxed and killing open downloads as a result. Since the 7th heaven cannot resume failed downloads, downloading the big files via browser (I used Firefox) would be the best course of action since resuming of failed downloads is supported.
