I have the same vid card and I have the same prob when I try hardwhere rendering mode for this game :(
 
weeee need freaks, they are make a modification for this gameeeeeee.....
 
we need "texel origin alignment" enabled in nvidia GPU's and drivers post-FX5X00 series and drivers post 77.XX (though some combinations work)

Now that you mentioned it I have not updated my vid card drivers for a wile :( I just downloaded the latest driver and I guess I will install it later today
 
Texel Origin Alignment is the nvidia equivalent of ATI's Alternate Pixel Center.
Now that i think about it though, that only helps with AA, the "Black boxes" problem occurs with or without AA...
so 8-bit palleted textures might just be the problem.
On my Geforce 3 Ti200 before i upgraded to the 6600:

now that i have the 6600 theres absolutely nothing i can do to fix the black squares.
BOTH cards were using nvidia 91.31 forceware which kind of implies its a hardware issue with new cards, though drivers and new cards together could be to blame.
drivers and old card works fine.

i think when a many people write them an email, maybe they are think about an patch!
 
I still have my gforce 2 I used before I got my 6600 and a spare computer just lying around so maby I could get it to work better on that.

You don't really believe in that, do you?
No, noone of them will sit back in front of a debugger and try to write a patch for a +5 year old game...

They also did not write a Chocobo-Patch for FF7 - we had to do it.

hmmm alright we have two options :)

any people they create a patch for this game "Higher Resolution" or our best USER :D The Saint

nvemulate does only emulate opengl mode! not 3d ! hmmm weeeee need an freak they modifiy it :D
 
well EA did the port for FF8 :p

eidos did the port for ff7
Click to expand...
Eidos made both of them, EA just published FF8 port. You can tell, because Eidos published FF8 in the UK, which is evident by their UK website if you do enough searching.
 
This topic is AWESOME! I've downloaded some stuff and already tested. I just want to know how can I use MP3 files instead MID. FF8conf22 does it? If it does, how can I configure to use it?

I know this is not the right topic for this question but I want to translate FF8 to portuguese, so I need some explanation how to do it... If anyone knows how can I do it, please help! I'm from Brazil, so excuse for any error in the text.

Peace!
