That is weird... must be an issue with touphscript.

For some reason it doesnt do this with me, the options are fine.  I will have to look into this even further. 

edit:  I have no clue what is going on here but I will be finding out.

edit 2:  only conclusion is this is a bug in ts.  I will notify Luksy.

edit 3.  It is again the fault of the original script programmers sharing vars between different options.  This is being fixed by Luksy for ts in a script patch.

Important:  Do not use Re-translation option with this installer.  Wait for M005a.  If you have already used it, simply reinstall M005 again without the R002 option.

The problem has been fixed in latest ts release and will be integrated with M005a.

Hello,  and thank you for this awesome mod (well at least it seems awesome).

What I did:
I installed the game, installed the 1.02 patch , installed Aali's custom graphics driver and finally installed this mod with the .exe

My problem:
After seeing the game credits and choosing "new game" I'm stuck on the "insert disk 1" screen.

Things to know:
This is the only mod I use
I installed the original version of the game
All three disks are mounted on virtual cd drives
My antivirus is off
I execute the game in admin mod

I have been looking for almost an hour to see if anyone haf the same pb without sucess...

Many thanks to the ones who'll try to help me =)

Does your game work without menu overhaul?  This doesnt sound like a problem with my mod?
 
maon16,
Do you have the correct CD-ROM Drive letter set in the registry?

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Square Soft, Inc.\Final Fantasy VII]
"DataDrive"="E:\\"
 
Hi maon16,

[list type=decimal]
[*]don't start the game in Administrator modus
[*]use only one virtual cd drive
[*]check the volume labels :  FF7DISC1 / 2 / 3
[*]check the registry keys

Example:  CD drive = E:

Windows, 32 bit

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
  SOFTWARE
    Square Soft, Inc
      FINAL FANTASY VIII
        1.00
            DataDrive = E:\
            MoviePath = E:\ff7\movies\


Windows, 64 bit

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
  SOFTWARE
    Wow6432Node
      Square Soft, Inc
        FINAL FANTASY VIII
          1.00
            DataDrive = E:\
            MoviePath = E:\ff7\movies\
[/list]

Click to expand...
In the new fix will we have to uninstal m005 and install it without the R002 option or just install it on top? Thanks?
 
Just install over top.  From now on that is all you need to do, the files used are the ones placed into Backup-dlpb
 
Hey sorry DLPB I have one last question and I have no idea where to post it ... I tried to PM you but it seems that I can't use the PM for now (new user ?)

So here is my question:

I installed the overhaul Project and it's working nicelly but the chararcter models only changed for the combat mode. ie when I'm walking around I still have the original models...

I saw your video on youtube and the models where really nice.

Sry to post here again but I'd really like to enjoy fully your awesome project !

(My english is far from perfect, sry for that ^^)
 
Like PM I do not respond or read any emails from here unless they are from specific people.  I'm sorry :)  Anythign which is related, can be placed in relevant threads, anything else, I am too busy.  8-)

edit.  Found it in junkmail, I already have ff8 OST, but thanks for the heads up anyway!

Hmmhmm, I need to ask something here; is the font supposed to be so that the characters are so close to each other? I mean, I looked at the New Game/Continue menu, and the "Continue" option is nearly illegible. Is this supposed to happen or did I just mess something up? (wouldn't be any news if I did :P)
 
You very likely messed something up.  Read the readme (shocker!) and the first post on this thread.
 
Houston, we have a problem.  ???
I just noticed, when I run the installer, it displays a message on startup. It says something along the lines that I haven't installed Aali's custom driver, although I have. And it is the latest version.

On the font thing... I believe this is something related to window.bin according to the readme. I'll try a second install and see if I overlooked anything essential. Oh, and fancy_transparency was also set active in ff7_opengl.cfg.
 
If it says it isnt installed, it is not installed properly.  Did you read through the first post and readme and do what it says?
 
...Yes, yes I did. I also tried to re-install just now, double-checked to make sure it was done on a clean set of files, but nope... the letters are still right next to each other.

Hold on, are the letters supposed to be in better shape too? All I'm seeing is the standard FFVII PC font, misplaced of course.

Just a question; how does one "properly" install the Custom driver? I always just got a zip file with an FF7Config and a few other files when I downloaded it.  ??? Then I followed the instructions and placed the stuff in FFVII main folder, replaced already-existent stuff? Isn't that a proper way, seeing as it's worked flawlessly so far?

PS. Do personal modifications to flevel.lgp interrupt the installer in any way? I see an error message about failing to convert anct1 (or something like that) into field... Temple of the Ancients clock puzzle, I presume?
