not true, at least for me. in software, ff7 textures look pixelated and crappy, and shading (like barrett's back or the gradiented windows) is not smooth. it visually looks much more impressive in D3D mode.
 
Correct.  Software mode uses no Anti-Aliasing or FSAA (if you have it enabled anyway) resulting in crappy looking textures and less-impressive looking shading.  Not to mention the battle swirl isn't as cool in software.

D3D is the way to go, even if you can get full speed in software.
 
If the game looks fine without the TNT patch, then applying the TNT fix will not improve anything :P

But, I think the 1.02 EXE has some game bug fixes in it.

Click to expand...

Well, its not due to a lack of AA or FSAA, it's something far more simpler.  The software mode simply does not do Bilinear Filtering on primitives that it draws, resulting in a PSX-look, since the PSX itself can't do that filtering either.
 
Can Hardware mode do Anti-aliasing? Whenever I enable it through Display Properties (using GeForce 3) the game refuses to start (black screen and that's it, Eidos logo doesn't show).
 
Err, I meant bi-linear filtering, not anti-aliasing :P
Anyway, I believe people have gotten FSAA to work in FF7 (I haven't made the attempt yet) so I think it's possible.
 
Well,i do have force 4x fsaa with my geforce 2 and the game works...so it should probably have it
 
Im using nvidia detonators 28.32 drivers and i have enabled force 4x antialiasing thru rivatuner.Using v1.2 but with the nvidia box unchecked since i get a fail at 8-bit palettized textures.Other than that i do get d3d acceleration
 
The following links are broken:
- Sephiroth1999AD's FF7 AWE Soundfont v1.00 (smallest version)
- Sephiroth1999AD's FF7 AWE Soundfont v1.04 (latest version) [NEW]

Ficedula's website is functional, however non of the file links seem to be working (here on my end that is).

Would anyone happen to have any mirrors, or can temporarily host the files? I recently got back into FFVII, and I really want those files. Thank you in advance!
 
Can't do anything about the soundfonts, but I've fixed the downloads on my site; thanks for the warning ;)
 
Also broken are all three configurator links.

In this case, its really bad, 'cause I've got someone over at the x3Dfx forums sayin' that they won't work.

Would anyone mind fixing them?  Or, did anyone create a mirror for them and not tell what the link is?
 
Anyone have the soundfonts and co uld just send them to me?
