Music in game doesn't work (Sounds, such as the battle into's still work) and i have no idea how to save or skip the intro.  I have already tried downloading the patch for the laptop music but the link is down. Could u tell me how to save or skip cut scenes and also how to fix music ASAP?

There isn't a patch for laptop music. Not sure where you got that. There is a patch for no music in the FAQ section on the first page. Set your sound device again in FF7Config and open FF7Music (find it in your game folder) and check the music files it's using.

Hello,

this is my first post and i'm happy that the registration finally worked!

So, first I want to thank all people, that are giving so much heart in such
an amazing project! That gives a new FFVII experience ;)

Sorry for my english, since its not my motherlanguage.

I'm playing the steam version of the game.

I have some problems with the mods, hope someone here can help me out:


1) Virus Problem:
As i went through the installation process described in the start post, my antivirus made alert:
Avalanche GUI v2.0.8.exe --> TR/Offend.2.2262' [trojan]
FF7 BarCorrectionPatch.exe -->  'TR/Offend.2.2262' [trojan]

So i had to disable the antivirus program.

And when i wanted to start the game, the following files made problems:
[...]\common\FINAL FANTASY VII\Multi.dll' -->  'TR/ATRAPS.Gen' [trojan]
[...]\common\FINAL FANTASY VII\FF7 Load Saved Games By Kranmer.exe --> 'TR/Crypt.XPACK.Gen5' [trojan]

I don't want to say, that the files are a trojan, thats just what antivirus gave me. Why is that?
It's annoying when you want to start the game and it makes alert or you have to disable the program whenever
you want to play.


2) Language problem:

I got the mod working, but i saw, that my game is "denglish" :D it's confusing...
That means, texts in the normal environment are in german (i play the german version in steam^^)
but the texts in the menu are a mixture, most parts english and some german in the descriptions of materia.
In battle field --> english

Can you please tell me if there is a possibility to mod the game and play it completely in german?

In the bootleg i choosed the language german^^


3) Music bug

For the soundtrack options I choosed: Anxious Heart Original
When you send the character to sleep, the melody which normally comes up, isn't to hear.


Thanks!

Kobe

1) Turn off your AV software when Bootleg is installing (it says this in the tutorial). They are false positives. None of the mods will harm your PC  :)

2) A lot of the translation options don't work well, or at all. Mods that modify specific menus aren't properly translated outside English, so you probably picked a mod option that is English only. I would love to fix the translation options for a future release, but the problem lies in getting reliable translators who know English as a second language well enough and who don't quit after starting the project  :(

3) Post that in the Anxious Heart thread.

ok mods installed but when i launch the game its a white screen ? i can sort of read New game and Continue but when the game starts its still just a white screen.

Read the FAQ please. There are a couple situations of white screens/textures and how to fix them.

The patch for no music in the FAQ is down and how do i check my music files through FF7music?

I updated 2 new download links in the FAQ.

To check music files, open FF7Music.exe and click the Configure button. Then go to the Files tab and the drop-down menu will list all the music Profiles you have installed. Make whatever else changes you want in there and click Save and Exit.
 
My texture problem looks like this:

Barret looks the same and the battle model textures only pop when the cursor is over his head.

EDIT: It was the 'Shaders' option in the Bootloader configuration.

Thanks for your answer!

1) I disabled it, as i mentionend in my post. But the problem (virus alert) appears also when i want to start the game.

2) There must be a solution. Aren't there specific files which are for the languages? So I could copy them from the original
files and add them to the specific folders? :) But I don't know which files they are and where they belong.

3) Ok.
 
Try this out:
Neuer-Ordner.rar
Paste the content in your FF7 folder (where the exe is). If you use the MO you must move the MO-patch in to the Hext_in folder. Make sure that this line is in your FF7_opengl.cfg:

Code: [Select]
Code: 
load_library = Multi.dll

There is no mediafire link to it from this guide. Use the links in STEP 8 to download it.

That didn't work. The problem still remains.
Here a example of my problems:

I used MO. Should I move the Mo.exe file form my bootleg folder to the Hext_in folder? I did it like that, because in the ff7 folder there was no mo.exe

Thank you Kaldarasha!

That helped me to solve the language problems!

I installed the FFVII_German_Reworked_beta04.exe but changed my char.lgp and flevel.lgp to
the one which I had before (to remain my bootleg mod settings^^).

So now, I can play it finally in complete german! Thanks again  :)

I want to be able to help others who may ask about German translations. So you used Kaldrasha's installer, but before so you backed up your char.lgp and flevel.lgp, then replaced them back after the installer finished?
 
Yes, like you described it.
As mentioned in the "German FFVII Reworked BETA" thread (https://www.ff7catalog.com/threads/9382/)
the files char.lgp and flevel.lgp have changings for the models. I saw that because I had a setting in the bootleg, and
after the installation ot Reworked the models looked different.
When you replace the backuped files than you can play it with the settings of the bootleg + all in german (but here i have to add: it's
a new translation project)

I want to try to test it with original files to get the original (complete) german translation + Modding :) . Maybe tomorrow :P

Maybe I can send you a PM with further details if you want.
 
Yes, that would be great. PM whenever you'd like.

I think the char.lgp and flevel.lgp have Kaldrasha's unshaded model project in it, which aren't included as a Bootleg option. The flevel.lgp specifically changes the size proportions of his models against the field backgrounds to match correctly. I personally think his work is the best for having a uniformed look to the game, but don't let thet persuade you from playing the way you like it  :)
 
I managed to install it correctly (I think) but once I start the game I get past the main menu to start a new game, then I get one dialog box and then it just stays as a black screen forever
 
I am having the same issue as a previous person on Windows 7. I work in IT so I'm relatively sure I'm not doing something stupid.
I'm running it as admin, etc etc. Cleaned registry. Cleaned install from steam on another drive and not in a system folder. Installing on a different drive letter. CD is mounted on E. Bootleg located on another drive and not in a system folder. Even gave all permissions to these directories for all users just for good measure. Antivirus is disabled. Steam isn't open.

It gets stuck on the Building LGP files step, it gets to "Building char.lgp . . ." and that's it. It doesn't do anything else. It just... stops. I've repeated this process 3 times, and it always happens.
 
I had this working the other day with sound after the music patch ;D but now when ever i open bootloader, the command box opens up then the game starts to begin (stays on a black screen) but after that there is a beep and everything closes. Any ideas?
 
I realize I am probably doing something right foolish, but I'm on Windows 7 and just got the Steam version, and while other people have issues with bootleg, I can't even get FF7_GameConverter_0.9b.exe to run! It just repeatedly tells me "Access Denied. Installation Aborted. Run this Program with Administrative Privalleges.", which I am doing. I have the blank iso mounted and I'm not in a system folder. Renaming a drive didn't work either. Rather frustrating, because after looking at all these mods I can't help but want to use them!

Is there something I could be doing wrong?
