The magic defense seems to work when I play with a modded 1998 version, so it could already be applied inadvertently with my mod selections.

I haven't a clue on Vincent's animation. I like to play with Yuffie and Tifa during that scene.

Do you mean the name of the Greens on the vendor? Can you elaborate on what is wrong and/or what should be the correct translations. I have videos (modded) with them being bought, so I can direct you to them once you respond.
 
The Tutorial is updated to fit Bootleg 040, and a new torrent is available now. Its link is in STEP 7. Please help seed it to at least a 1.000 ratio after downloading.

I need to create another thread this weekend to put all the new Mod Details in it. I have already reached the character limit just trying to add all the new models for Cloud alone!  :|

The Magic Defense fix is done by Aali's driver on the 1997 versions.

The mistranslation of greens only shows up when you feed Chocobos that you catch yourself (if I recall correctly, Choco Billy may also say the incorrect name during a conversation as well). The names of five greens are different when you choose which one to feed your Chocobos. Curiel becomes Kurie, Mimett becomes Memit, Krakka becomes Karaka, Pahsana becomes Pasana, and Gysahl becomes Gizzard. The mistranslation issue is mentioned here (read the third bullet): http://finalfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/Final_Fantasy_VII/Version_Differences#2012_re-release
 
Then the magic defense works for both versions after modding. The 2012 requires conversion to the 1998 to have mods installed and includes the use of Aali's Driver to function.

It looks like the Greens are translated for a modded game, but they are slightly different translations from yours listed:

I believe those translations are from the Menu Overhaul mod.
 
I wanted to ask, modding a game is not easy, is it? It's just that I'm a graphic designer and I'd like the opportunity to work with FF7 models to help here, and I often work with animation and videogame characters, but know nothing about programming and such... Don't know how big of a problem that is.

I'm sorry to bother you all again, but I was wondering if you can't answer this, where else can I ask? I'd really like to help. Besides, practicing would help ME since I want to start making videogames with a couple of programmer and designer friends later on.

I'll leave you with a couple videos of what I normally do, I know that 2D photoshop painting is not the same as 3D modelling, so these might not me 'appropriate credentials' but I just want to show you that at least I'm not all talk.

Lovely work! I am honestly not much of a modder (yet). My job is more so a tester for new mods and helper for new users. BUT, I would suggest creating your own Topic in the General Discussion board. Also, check out the Team Avalanche board and start posting/networking with some of them. I think you'll find a lot of help to your questions if you started with those places rather than buried pages within this Tutorial thread.

I welcome you whole-heartily and look forward to seeing more of your work  :)
 
Hey guys, I just bought the 2012 version from the Square Enix store. I got all the way to Step 3 before trying to run BFE.exe and it keeps giving me the error that Bootleg Front End has stopped working. I run a Windows 7 64 bit edition.
 
I have 3.5.1 installed, and it still gives me the same error.
 
hi i installed tifas bootleg and for some reason the sound effects dont work music plays ok butno sound effects at all
 
Works now, had to reset to factory settings. Thanks though Pitbrat.
 
I have searched the forum for possible solutions, but nothing I found seems to work. I have installed Bootleg 0040 over a fresh install of FF7. Everything is great, except the safe combination in the Shinra Mansion. I only see the top part of the numbers, meaning I can't actually enter the combination. I have seen multiple threads where this was an issue, but the solutions offered there have not worked for me. Can anyone point me to which file contains that, so I can use the default file to get past that part, then switch back? Or even better, what may be causing the problem to begin with?

I had same problem, but I still managed to get the combination right =) Took a while though. No idea what may have caused this problem =/
 
Someone had this issue in a previous version of Bootleg, but I don't remember how/if it was resolved.

I'm waiting to see if PitBrat has a solution.
 
Just a question, my french translation in the bootleg menu don't work at all in game, how can i do for apply it?

Game is working correctly in any difficulty, but when i want to translate the game in french, all the game stay in english.

This is not a big problem, but that's just for the story. Translate everything while i'm playing is a bit boring, my head is gonna explode^^
