Got my mistake. I missed the step 1 on first install -_-. Uninstalled evrything and modded again, works like a charm! I'm only at intro and I can't see the weapons on mercenaries Avalanche, but nothing hard.
 
They don't have weapons, they just act like they're holding guns. That's not a glitch, just poor design choice by Square.
 
I just picked up FF7 on steam this weekend and would like to play it with this mod, but I'm unable to download Avalanche GUI 2.0.8 anywhere. Most sites I go to say the file no longer exists, and the few that let me download it, the file disappears when it reaches my computer. I even downloaded it to a zip disk on a mac where I could see the full file (roughly 7.1 MB) was there, but when I moved the zip disk to my PC the Avalanche file was suddenly reduced to 4 KB.

Is anyone else experience a similar issue? Can anyone suggest a fix?

Thanks in advance.

Here you go. ^^ https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B7ZrngjoUqm-bjRSMldBaWFZa1E/edit?usp=drive_web&urp=https://www.ff7catalog.com/]
 
It sounds like your AV program is deleting it. I'm pretty sure the Avalanche GUI produces a false positive for some AV programs.
 
Hi,

I follow your tutorial and video but after a complete installation/configuration, i start my game, it start correctly but when i select "New Game", a black screen appear and nothing else.

Thank you in advance.

PS : Sorry for my bad english, i'm French..
 
I've been scanning the seventy-some pages and I can't seem to find a previous posting with my issue, so hopefully someone can help.
I ran a clean installation of FFVII from steam and word-for-word followed the instructions for the bootleg. I configured the bootloader to my graphics card (NVidia GeForce GTX 660M) according to other posts within the thread. I can boot up the game just fine and am presented with the New Game/Continue screen. I select "New Game" and the screen goes blank for a second, then the game closes out and I get the "FF7.exe has stopped working" window and it just tells me that there was an issue. I've tried messing around with all of the settings in both the bootloader and configurator 1.02 in order to try to alleviate the problem, but the only thing I can manage to do is get the game to fail fullscreen and revert to windowed mode. The odd thing is that when this happens, I sometimes get to the opening cutscene. I'm new to this site, so if I need to provide more information, please let me know.

I hope that someone can help and look forward to being able to enjoy the game in HD

For whatever reasons, your installation didn't go well. It's trying to access files from the flevel.lgp that aren't there. Try starting over from the very beginning.

I've been scanning the seventy-some pages and I can't seem to find a previous posting with my issue, so hopefully someone can help.

Post your APP.LOG please.
 
Try running the 314.22 drivers.

Still a large portion of the screen cut off... it helped but still not playable.

EDIT!!!!
I fixed it. That was dumb.
I have my monitor set at a resolution of 1920x1080, as you know the higher the resolution the smaller the text. Since my monitor is my HDTV i had gone an upscaled the text in order to see it better, this inadvertently caused a lot of my games to be bigger than my screen would allow, as seen on page 69.
I recommend placing this fix in the FAQ section of this mod incase anyone has the same issue I did. All i did was set the dpi scaling back to default, from 120%.
Thanks for the attempts at help yall i appreciate it.

Hey everyone,

First off, thanks to all the contributors that made the Bootleg project possible. I've been excited to jump into playing FFVII again with some renewed elements, so I've been trying to make this work since I learned about this from Cracked yesterday. Got out my old first release version of FFVII for PC by Eidos from 1998 so I could make this happen. But alas, running into some issues.

So, my problem is rather straightforward.

The game crashes immediately after I launch FF7.exe.

Here's what I've done to try to troubleshoot this.
I've done several installs, uninstalls and reinstalls of the Bootleg mods through the Tutorial provided by EQ2Alyza.
I've also done all the applicable steps in the FAQ too.

My computer is a Laptop running Windows 8 Pro 64 bit. CPU is an Intel i7-3615QM. Graphics card is a GeForce GT 650M with Driver version 314.22 (as suggested by the FAQ).

Here's my APP.LOG:
Code: [Select]
Code: 
INFO: FF7/FF8 OpenGL driver version 0.7.11bINFO: Auto-detected version: FF7 1.02 US EnglishINFO: NVIDIA Corporation GeForce GT 650M/PCIe/SSE2 4.3.0INFO: Using PBOINFO: Found swap_control extensionINFO: Max texture size: 16384x16384INFO: Number of texture units: 4INFO: Original resolution 640x480, window size 1280x960, output resolution 1280x960, internal resolution 3840x2160INFO: FBO extension detected, using fast scaling/postprocessing pathINFO: FFMpeg movie player plugin loadedINFO: FFMpeg version SVN-r25886, Copyright (c) 2000-2010 Fabrice Bellard, et al.INFO: No shaders, codecs with YUV output will be slow.INFO: FF7Music helper plugin loadedINFO: Loading external library Multi.dllLOCK UNLOCK TEST MATRIX INITIALIZE INITIALIZE DD/D3D END initializing sound...creating dsound primary bufferreading audio fileloading static soundssound initialized
Some other information I've found from looking at my application log is that the error is caused by ff7_opengl.fgd. I've even gone to the Aali's Custom Graphic Driver FAQ page to see if this is a common issue, which apparently it is for Nvidia cards. Sadly, none of those troubleshooting tips worked either (turning off shaders, etc).

It seems to a problem with the OpenGL driver, as I was able to get the game to launch to the Start/Continue screen as a vanilla install, but unable to start as it is a laptop keyboard with no numpad.

So any help in getting this working would make my day!

Thanks in advance!
-MS

When you say crash, does Windows give the message that "...has stopped working."?

HallowBass, check out the FAQ section on the first page. I have that issue shown and how to fix it.
 
MS,

When you say crash, does Windows give the message that "...has stopped working."?
Click to expand...
Yes,

It gives the error that FF7.exe has stopped working and does the error report thing to Microsoft.

First, my thanks to all involved in this project.

I am a bit slow with these things but over the course of 3 days I got Tifa's Bootleg to run on my computer. While playing I noticed the glitch mentioned in the FAQ where Barret uses a melee animation with a ranged weapon. I ran though the fix covered there but now the game freezes at the start of the first battle after Barret joins the party. I have probably botched this in some way beyond my comprehension; please advise

I am trying to run this on an 64 bit Windows 7 Pro HP EliteBook 8560w with an Intel i5 2.60GHz and 1gb AMD Firepro 5950 GPU (I think)

I'm having a similar issue, i've installed the 2012 remake and i've done everything correct with Bootleg, cept when I had to manually install the GUI stuff but here's my APPlog.

Edit -  Is the Bootleg modification supposed to delete and recreate the BIN files needed in the game? O.o  Some errors came up in reinstallation about Scene not being found or something.  Which could be a reason for one problem I had.

Okay, I reread everything that I had to do. xD I installed it to c:games directory  as recommended and the bootleg worked as well as turning off the UAC and antivirus.  Tifa, you have done a great job on this, lemme say for someone interested in modding. I am very glad that an easy installation like this is around.

This morning I accidentally uninstalled without unmounting the virtual drive. xD DERP. Then rebooted so I can do it again but now it's giving me crap. >:C I was trying a lot of major things because the enhanced menu style in the overhaul selection is making the graphics twitch in some parts, you know how on some Nvidia cards or ATI ones that you see square lines or straight lines in some picture areas in the game?  I removed the enhanced menu and it worked with others, just gotta try to reinstall it AGAIN. :|

Anywho, I love this, it was worth the torrent download. Thank you, and god bless. :O
 
I'm sorry for spamming this thread, just excited and very impressed with this mod manager.  But, Tifa. Will there by chance be an update on the torrent with any new files to be added in the new bootleg update as well as certain reanimation files and all of that when they're brought to action? O.o
 
Hello, I am very impressed with this package but I was livestreaming my game and all of a sudden Yuffie crashes the game whenever I try to get her :(.  Any solution?
