1337_grim, that's not possible, specially because that file just doesn't exist on the original version. You'd better remove both char.lgp and the folder where you extracted it, get a clean (completly unchanged) char.lgp from you disk, extract it's contents and try again.
By the way, this version check is absurd. It should be removed in the next version.
 
I may perhaps be borderline retarded, but I can't get the patch to work.  Is it possible for someone to just send me a copy of an already modified char.lgp that i can just change out with the one I have already? Thanks in advance for whatever replies I receive.  And from the pics I've seen, you guys are doing a great job!
 
Apparently, I am stupid.  I just figured out what I did wrong.  The characters look great but I have noticed that some of the backgrounds mess up tho, particularly the scene where you first meet President Shinra and a couple scenes later when you meet Aries.  Is that common?
 
What do you mean the background is messed up ?? Can you send us a shot or something.  The patch isn't suppose to change at all the background at all, so I don't think it's a problem related to the patch.

so the way i understand you (you (or someone else) can correct me) is that you want me to delete the char.lgp, the new folder that i made and/or the origanle char folder and (not sure if this part is needed but i might do it anyways) uninstall then reinstall ff7, then try to install the npc patch again. is that correct?*


* i wont do anything about ff7 and its contents untill i know exactly you want me to try out/do.

there's the pic of what i'm talking about.  Notice all the black areas around the picture.
 
That not down to the NPC PR patch

I have made some head way with the world map and the menu error's
 
Nop.
Just remove your char.lgp, the folder where you extracted it's contents and get a fresh unmodified copy of char.lgp from your disks. Then try again.
 
thanks borde. that fixed the problem. its still in the prosses of installing the mod (22% done)


edit: its done but for some reason every time i click on ff7.exe the game crashes(i get a black screen and thats it i go back to my desktop) is there a way to fix this?

Well it looks like your char.lgp got corrupted. That's caused because of a little big problem some people has using LGPTools. Most of the times, this problem is releated to your regional Settings. Try changing them to English and then try again.
 
it is already in English( i live in the us)

how big is you char.lpg mines 61,616,128 bytes and last time i checked it worked fine
 
mines 60,171 kb (not sure in normal bytes)


edit: i fixed the prob. (small and simple) i named the new char lgp incorectly (char.igp) so i just changed it to char and it fixed the prob.

I have a bit a couple of issues:

-Is the patch 1.02 necesary for this, or it will not work if the patch is installed?

Olso I can't quite understand 100% the instruccions:

-You serach for data, field, then with LGP tools you extract all of the file in char.lpg to a newly created char folder right?
-then you go run the patch (of course on Final Fantasy VII/data), right?
-then with the files in the char folder you make a new char.lpg and replace the old one, right?
-once done run final fantasy normaly

P.S. I am Using LGP 1.60 but its says the following: LGP extenciones not installed, but when i try to install them its says instalation failed, possible reasons: registey is currupt, LGPPROP Missing, cannot write system/shellext folder.
Dunno where this LGPPROP.DLL file is, and i am running LGP from my desktop maybe thats because it cannot writie system/shellext folder?

Thanks in advance
 
what version of windows are you running because as far as i know lpgtools is a winxp app so it might not register properly on other systems
 
But LGP works fine, if i skip that instalation, it still runs and does every nicely, but is it necesary that istalation?
 
if it works don't mess with it but if i were you i would ask ficedula what they actually do
