Este patch esta todo en Ingles, y tu juego estaria en ingles despues de instalarlo.
 
i did everything
still doesnt work is i try the openGL config it says :path not found
 
I installed it now and tried to test it, but whenever I try to run ff7.exe through the start menu, it just goes black and then pops back to Windows, saying that the application stopped. I'm running Vista x64. Also, when I try to run it as administrator, it tells me it can't find ficedula/ff7music.exe and after I click OK, it comes another message saying it can't find ff7.exe.

Are you sure you followed the instructions above? I was sitting there modifying my post for a while..haha.

If it still doesn't work, run \ficedula\ff7music.exe, then run FF7.exe in compatibility mode for windows 98, and if it crashes, copy and paste what the console window says using the Code: [Select]
Code: 
[code]Insert stuff here

Where'd you install your game into? The game has to be installed into [System Drive]\Program Files (x86)\Square Soft, Inc\Final Fantasy VII\ to work properly.
Also, don't run as administrator...disable User Account Control from the Users option in the control panel then restart.
If it still doesn't work, try changing the resolution via the OpenGL Config File

I can't help you if I don't know what the problem is... It sounds like the patch is installing just fine, but can't find the movie registry key, which is what I was trying to help you with in my post above...I'm going to need some debug info or more screenshots or *something*. I hope you understand that I don't have the slightest clue how German windows works so i can't just make a guide that's going to work 100%, since I have no way of testing it. All I have to go on are assumptions and the sparse information I've been given.

I need to know *why* it isn't working before I can figure out how to fix it. I hope you understand this.
 
@titeguy3:
Nevermind, found out on my own. :P

@zockirrer:
Oh crap, I misread- you have the german setup. Gimme sometime to look over what is going on and I'll try to help too.
EDIT: Do me a favor, open regedit "Open the run dialog and type "regedit" and press enter. Browse to "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Square Soft, Inc.", right click on the folder and pick export. Then upload that somewhere so we can take a look.

@CyberPirate
Try running FF7music.exe as admin (browse into the "C:\Program Files (x86)\Square Soft, Inc\Final Fantasy VII\ficedula" folder yourself and do it), then launch FF7 with the button inside FF7music. See if that works.

Also, to anyone who is installing from a completely clean FF7 installation- as-in you haven't even ran the game yet. Run "FF7Config.exe" before you run install the Remix patch. FF7 always runs this program once (since it sets up your config), but it writes reg values that will overwrite the Remix's reg values. So this has to be ran before you install the Remix installer (or just rerunning ff7remixpostinstall.bat should fix the problem, if the reg values have been messed up.)

ermmm.. I've had this problem before, but never really figured out 100% what caused it, but I know it has to do with registry stuff.

What I want you to try is start regedit. Goto "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Square Soft, Inc.\1.00\Graphics" Select the whole graphics folder and delete it (right click the folder)
Then try adding this to the registry and rerunning.

This might produce the same behavior you have been having we will see....

Alright---
1) To edit the opengl config, just open a notepad and drag and drop the "ff7_opengl.cfg" into and and edit then save. It's just a plain text file.

Here is what I recommend you do- this will be a bit of a hacky task but if this doesnt work, I dunno if I will be able to help you.

1) Back-up your saves folder (...\Square Soft, Inc\Final Fantasy VII\save)
2) Uninstall FF7 using the uninstaller (you have to use the uninstaller, it will clean the reg entries too)
3) Double check that "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Square Soft, Inc." doesn't exist anymore-- if it does, delete it.
4) Delete the Square Soft, Inc folder from your program files folder, completely removing all traces of everything.
5) Reinstall Final Fantasy 7 from the disc, do a full install.
6) Run "FF7Config.exe" (located in ...\Square Soft, Inc\Final Fantasy VII\) and press okay, don't worry about any of the settings. (You can copy back your saves at this point too)
7) Open Winrar and then open Final_Fantasy_VII_Remix_v2-3_Installer.exe, extract all the files in it to ...\Square Soft, Inc\Final Fantasy VII\ (like you normally would, we just dont want the post install script to start right away.
8.) Unrar and copy these files into ...\Square Soft, Inc\Final Fantasy VII\, overwrite any files it asks about (http://rapidshare.com/files/278367841/Fix_plz.rar.html)
9) Run ff7remixpostinstall.bat located in ...\Square Soft, Inc\Final Fantasy VII\
10) Browse into the ...\Square Soft, Inc\Final Fantasy VII\movies" folder and run "ff7movkeyC.reg"
11) Enjoy?

And I need to know, I took it for granted before due to your screenshot- but you are installing and running this from a C: drive right?

Also, after looking at the VBS script, I'm not sure why it doesn't install right for you. I think it might have to do with stuff having different names from the english Windows to the version you are running.
^^ Sorry had to change the steps on you, one of the paths was hard coded and I can't test\am having a hard time changing it...

Here is my last ditch effort, I honestly don't know what else to try after this.

This is a copy of my registy stuff for FF7 (with a few minor edits so that it will point to your program files and right reg keys)
Try deleting "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Square Soft, Inc.", the whole folder. Then importing my keys.
Launch "C:\Programme\Square Soft, Inc\Final Fantasy VII\ficedula\ff7music.exe" and then run FF7 through that.

If this doesn't work then I really don't know if there is anything I can do to help... :(
