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?

Which directory do you have the game installed?  If you have it installed in Games then everything should have gone fine.
 
Not at all, there can be a million problems other than the install directory. Can you post your APP.log please?
 
Hi, I recently installed Tifa's Bootleg for Final Fantasy 7 and my game crashed whenever I got into a battle with Yuffie.  She kept moving forward and did invisible attacks. I cannot run the game in compatibility mode it seems, and yes I have a custom model installed for yuffie.  Can anyone help me with this problem? I had 40-50 viewers watching my stream and they were all disappointed by this :(

There is probably an issue with your Yuffie model. Which one are you using?

Good point there man.  And hey, I have had past problems before, it could be that he's missing certain mod files to interact and recreate the files in the LGP's.  But who knows. I had that problem before a couple days ago, took me a while to figure out some things if you want me to elaborate. I was quite impressed with the work, but the internal resolution was my big issue, not the mods. o.o
 
Hi again.  I fixed the problem myself.  It was a bad yuffie model.  I was using an AC Yuffie model I believe, and I basically switched in another yuffie model for the old on in the battle.lpg files.  I'll be back if any other problems occur.  So far, the game runs flawless even when streaming at 1080p (www.twitch.tv/novakakaz)  The only 2 problems I had was the yuffie battle freeze and the bike minigame going beserk on me.  I have Vsync on and I'm running on a 120hz monitor but I limited my refresh rate to 60 in game.
 
Yes,

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

I had not updated STEP 1 with Kompass' latest 0.9b FF7 Game Converter. A similar problem to yours occurred on a report awhile back. Same APP.LOG, same FF7.exe crash. I'm hoping it's just an incorrect usage of the FF7 Game Converter.

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)

You definitely botched the import somehow. It's showing errors with Barrett's battle files.

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
Click to expand...
Yes, I'll be updating this for the new Bootleg release. I believe PitBrat and Vgr are working on a complete overhaul of the installation process, so things may change drastically. Things have been quiet for a couple months now, so I'm not sure when the next release will be though.

Hi again.  I fixed the problem myself.  It was a bad yuffie model.  I was using an AC Yuffie model I believe, and I basically switched in another yuffie model for the old on in the battle.lpg files.  I'll be back if any other problems occur.  So far, the game runs flawless even when streaming at 1080p (www.twitch.tv/novakakaz)  The only 2 problems I had was the yuffie battle freeze and the bike minigame going beserk on me.  I have Vsync on and I'm running on a 120hz monitor but I limited my refresh rate to 60 in game.

I know that FMV's run at 12 fps, and then all other parts of the game run at either 15 or 30 fps. I've never run into someone reporting with a 120hz monitor, but I know the game is not coded to run on 60 fps at any points. That may have sped up your minigame to an uncontrollable speed.

I see, can you keep me updated on it Tifa? I really love this and I grew up on FF7.  It's a big memory to me, brings back a lot of good memories.  I'm checking almost everyday, it's so exciting to know about the updates.  If I had the right education in something like this, I could help.
 
Hi all. First of all thanks to Alyza for helping me with the registration and sorry for my bad english. I have a problem with the translation (I use the steam version). I think that the problem is touphScript, cause during and at the end of the installation I receive the following message:

Error in blackbgb: converting to field failed, Attempted to read 323135 bytes from 36fe
Click to expand...
There's a way to use the last version of touphScript with Tifa's Bootleg?

Thanks for the help!
 
I wondedr if this would be of use to anyone I have uploaded bootleg40 and nearly all the mod to a file host site. I know some people can not use torrents well if needed here are the files.

is this ever going to support the latest Gpu drivers for nvidia OR AMD?
cause i can't get my drivers to stay rolled back to the ones that work -_-
it ALWAYS updates after like a couple days to 327.23
and then boom! i can't run FFVII untill i roll back to the ones that work -_-
it's very annoying
any chance this'll get worked to to support the newest gpu drivers?

anytime i go above 314 drivers it screws up the visual settings to the point where all i see is a white screen when i attempt to load a game and beyond
come to think of it... it's probably cause i'm running an nvidia gpu -_-
go figure
nvidia... the way it's meant to fail lol...

Apparently this happens kos you installed nvidia update from Windows update, that only can be fixed if you reinstall your OS then in Windows Update where it says update nvidia thingy DON't update that and install nvidia driver from website manually then you can use latest drivers :) Thanks to Leonhart for finding this fix
 
um... really?
i have to reinstall my whole os?
eh ok XD
i was planning on that anyway XD
*sigh* the things i do for games lol...
 
Uh, I don't think you need to reinstall Windows to fix this. You can get the drivers manually from NVIDIA and it'll replace the ones from Windows Update.

For whatever reason, I'm only getting the front page to upload or drag/drop files.

This is because you have Windows Update set to automatically download and install. If you switch that to only notify of updates, then you can open Windows Update when it notifies and Right-Click -> Hide Update to get rid of it ever asking again. After that, just install driver updates from Nvidia's site as they reportedly work while the Windows Update drivers do not.
