So I uninstalled FF7, and I tired to do the process again. Now the bootleg just gets stuck on "Installing FacePalmer Special Cases..." Why is it stuck on this? It's not frozen, but it's not doing anything now.

Somethings take awhile to install. How long did you wait till you decided it was hung? As long as you have the necessary mod files you shouldn't have any problems. Did you download the bootleg torrent? Most of the things being installed on bootleg will open a second cmd window that'll show it's progress. Try again and wait till it either finishes or bootleg actually crashes and gives you an error.
 
I'm waiting about 10 more minutes to see if any progress is made. And yes, I downloaded the bootleg torrent.
 
What directory did you install the game? Did you do c\games\final fantasy vii\ff7, or did you do standard install into the programs file? You'll need to reinstall again if you did a standard installation. I've only had one instance of bootleg not working, and that was because I accidentally removed a file I needed. If something fails it'll usually gives you an error. It can take awhile, I've since taken all of my mods into a single iro for 7thHeaven, so if I need to reinstall it only has to load the music and background files and stuff. I'd ride it out and see what happens. If it seems hung end the process and make sure nothing else is really running, then try again.
 
I created my own folder I called "FF7" Which is in my other HDD "F". I got the steam version, so all I did was download the game. After that, I just copied the game to the folder I made, used the converter, then started the bootleg. and yes, I did set everything in the installation tab in the bootleg.

So it's been over an hour and half now, and it still says "Installing FacePalmer Special Cases..."

Stop everything and start over from scratch. Do not skip any of these steps and do them exactly...

[list type=decimal]
[*]Uninstall FF7Music via Windows Control Panel.
[*]Uninstall the game via Windows Control Panel.
[*]Clean your registry using this: DOWNLOAD
[*]Delete the old game folder completely. It will have junk files leftover from modding, so installing back into it will cause a nightmare.
[*]Uninstall your video drivers and install Nvidia GeForce 314.22 .
[*]Install the game.
[*]Move the game folder to your F: drive (e.g. F:\FINAL FANTASY VII).
[*]Convert your game using this: DOWNLOAD
[*]Start the modding process again from STEP 2 on the first page. Don't skip reading anything and pay attention to all the NOTES, TIPS, bold and red text.

YES! Thank you! I did exactly what you said, and started from scratch, and after I ran the bootleg, the game runs! One problem though. There's no sound. I did the DLPB_Tools.zip thing in the FAQ, and there's still no sound at all.
 
Thanks! Got sound now. Thanks for the help everyone! Sorry for being a bother.
 
hello, my Gjoerulv's  Mod could not be found because of incorrect file name? i followed the labelling instructions completely. please help. also, my mo.exe is a 16 bit unsupported application, how do i get around this?

*edit* got those two to work, now the FMVres files are corrupted... f*ck my life
           the MO.exe found in the torrent is outdated, the newer version is found in the mo.exe thread on qhimm

The FMVRes files are safely in tact within the torrent. The corruption must somehow be on your end. Perhaps do a recheck on your torrent to see if it picks up any missing packets.

The MO.exe within the torrent is version M05c, which is the latest release. No further versions are being released until DLPB completes The Reunion mod pack.

okay, i got mo.exe to work and Gjoerulv's Hardcore Mod to work. re-torrenting all the fmvres packs now. i hope this works...
 
Is there a way to fix this sound effect issue? I hear music, but no sound effects are present.
 
hmmm. are you using mode switcher?
