Well, that looks kick ass... I'll certainly reinstall the game upon release.

Top notch work SaiNt
 
i can´t wait  :D  when its going on all versions are you very good :wink:
 
There, posted a beta release and the link is in my first post.
If you guys discover any bugs, please post only in this thread, any threads anywhere else will get killed. =)

Enjoy
 
when I try the beta patch it says everything patched ok but when I run the main game it doesn't even run, it just crashes instantly.
 
I just installed the patch...everything said it was ok, but some CRC thing said it failed. Either way, I tested the game out and it looked the same. Still ran, but looked the same. Is there something I'm supposed to activate first? Or is this CRC thing a bigger deal than I thought? Thanks for the hard work, and I know this is still beta. I'm just so excited!

[edit] whoops turns out it was because of my crack. That CRC32 error meant I had a cracked ff7.exe. I actually bought the game, but I noticed that whenever a movie played it would all of a sudden stop and take a little while for the drive to spin up again. Anyways, I'm off to try it again (with a successful CRC32). Any way we can play the game (even with a CD) with having movies on the hard drive too?

[edit] hey it turns out there is a registry edit that allows movies on the hard drive but still requires cd. pm me if youre curious. Anyways, I tried the patch out and everything runs perfectly! (after i repatched with ff7music) GREAT JOB SAINT! lol and its just at the beginning of summer so it looks like I'll have time to play this game all the way through the way it was meant to be played. great job for the beta. however it still looks a little different from the regular. I know you might not be able to change that, but some stuff looks a little weird (like the damage indicators on the enemy being really weirdly spaced. like 44 damage becomes 4   4. this is just a very tiny nitpick and if it never got fixed it really wouldnt make a difference. i'm just being anal) hope this post helps people who have similar problems.

mine wont even start just flickers once and does nothing.
 
For those which the patch does not work, can you check to see if you have Win98 compatibility mode enabled for the executable?
 
Glorious! And I noticed in the readme, you are working on interpolation instead of pixel doubling! You are my hero.

With ff7music, battle -> field conversion, your highrez, and interpolated backgrounds, it'll be like a total remake!
 
I have an ATI card and I'm getting the same gridlines I get when anti-aliasing is enabled.  I've made sure everythings turned off.  :(

Edit:  Nevermind, I had it set to RIVA instead of TNT.  It works fine now :)
By the way, thanks for the patch!  I'm glad people are enhancing my favorite videogame!  Has anyone talked to Reunion?  When will the character models be finished?
 
Whenever I go to buy something the menus become distorted and overlap each other...
 
My FF7 just stays on an infinitely black screen. The original exe seems to work fine, however. :-?

Will took a look at that when I get back home.
Would you mind posting a save game close to a store so I can check it easily?

Are you able to run the basic FF7 1.02 in 640x480 mode?
 
Wooooo!!!!!! Looks MUCH better now. It's a pitty that it's incompatible with fice's music patch (the music plays great on my old SB Live! but my AC'97 doesn't handle it too well). Could it work if you removed the CRC check?
Anyway, great job Saint!!!
PD.: can you really activate the interpolation? That' would be amazing!
 
but its going not on the german version ???

Well, I have nothing planned at the moment.
I hardly have time to even finish this patch.

There, released a quick fix, not too quick really, since I had to get back from work first. All the menus in shops should work now.

Also, interpolation isn't a high priority thing on my huge list of things to do, so don't go waiting for it. ;)

Also, I'd appreciate it if someone could post screenshots of what happens when you enable 2XFSAA on Nvidia cards with this patch. I can't do it as ATI cards get texture corruption.
 
agh, it's not working for me, i get the crc error.. is it because i'm using the hand and high-res cloud patches?
*grumble*
