Ok , Not to sure whether to post this in the tech form or the PAtches Forum , So i posted in both.

Moderators - Please feel free to delete a post if it violates any rules.

Heres a rundown Of specs before we get down to the nitty gritty

CPU + Mobo - AMD Athlon 64 x2 Dual - Core Processor 4200+
RAM - 2gb OZC Gaming Ram 2*1gb Sticks + 4ghz Corsair Ram 2*2gb Sticks 6gb Total
Ethernet - NForce Chipset
GFX - ATI X1650 Pro Sapphire - www.sapphiretech.co.uk
OS - Windows Vista Ultimate - SP2 X64

Anything else i can Post freely although i know for a fact the specs will run the game smoothly due to the age of the game and the fact running it as 1.2 Version And Original 1.0 Version run smooth as silk. Not one problem.

Anyway , Im wanting to make the most of the 8 Bit textures and im not sure how to go about this. I was deeming the 1.31 Launcher to be a success to maximising the looks and texture and giving my screen a little bit more 'Flavour'. BUT this came to no avail. Instead i get a nasty error report saying ** Image coming in a mo **

Ok , It looks as though after the read-me , I have to change the Command line , Now this is where i faulter , Do i need to edit it via REGEDIT. If so this my prove to be a problem , As its on my Second Vista Ultimate Boot / Drive. I have all Programs instlled onto my 250gb HDD , And All media on my 750gb HDD. The 750 Is my C:\ and the 250 is my D:\ . So what im looking for is basically guidance on how to edit this , securely and safely.
 
hey guys, rapidshare is gone so could someone upload FF8 Launcher 1.31 at another filehosting site?
 
but I think it's not the same. The launcher I want enables you to play FF8 on Hardware 3D without the black boxes
 
once again I need help. I have formated my laptop and now I use Windows 7 Ultimate x64 and I the Launcher doesn't work. HELP!
 
Hi mikeerfol

Do you have install the 1.2 patch in the same language as your FF8 and suitable for your graphics card?

yes, I use the patch for Nvidia users.
 
Hi mikeerfol

I can use the FF8 Launcher v1.31 with these settings.

This looks to me like this.

But I use the patch 1.2 Non Geforce German.
Do you have the US or the UK version?
Maybe you could try the non Geforce patch? (look here)

ok, problem is fixed, graphics look awesome but the text is a little blur. Can I do something?
 
Hi mikeerfol


First, please tell us how you got the problem solved now. Others can learn from it.

For your next problem a picture would have been helpful.
But I think that has to do with the settings of your graphics card driver.
Since I have an AMD graphics card, I can not help you much.
Try some filtering of the video card (especially for FF8) to turn off., eg Anti-aliasing.

Silly me, I forgot that I had put the option "Software Renderer" in FF8Config. I switched to Direct3D Hardware and the graphics are fine. About the other problem looks like it's solved now, but I didn't do anything.
 
Then we can inform the administrator about this thread move to the section "Solved"?
