When I read it from the disc, which is the only way I can do it so far, the game credits come on, but they zoom by at like 10x speed, and when the credits end, it loops and starts all over, so I have to close the program and reboot. I just downloaded this thing, but I can't get it working, and the fast music creeps me out lol. Can anyone help me? Thanks guys. Just a noob trying to play the best game of all time... with cheats.

Update

Okay, I changed the maximum FPS to 60, which put it at normal speed, but now it infinitely loops the opening credits. Can some one help me?

Try pressing the button you configured as 'Start'. FF7-9 don't automaticaly go to the title menu, you press 'start' or 'X' to bring it up.

Iso

It works now, but it is really slow. How do I run the ISO I created with WinISO? I open it in the emu, and the screen stays black.

 

[Kane]

Maybe the ISO was corrupted in creation. Try remaking it. Perhaps using a different drive
Or maybe you could try using Virtual drive software like Alcohol 52% or Daemon Tools

>It works now, but it is really slow.

Try using the settings from my site. If that doesnt' work, perhaps telling us a little more about hte specs of your PC would be helpful

ISOs

Daemon Tools can make ISOs from the CD?

 

[KarLWF]

I made the ISO using ASPI

 

[I-Chan]

No, but you can mount your iso on the virtual drive, and load it as a cd. That way you'll have the advantages of using an ISO, and will work just as it did with the cd. And please provide the info Kane-Sama asked for, or it will be near to imposible to help you.

Well, hey, I solved my problem by making a BIN file using CDRWin, and it runs fine. But know when I play Final Fantasy VII, the screen goes black for a few seconds frequently, and a lot of the enemies I fight are black (instead of blue, like the soldiers in the beginning.) Also, the finger is black. Any help now? And I have Windows XP, SP 2, with a 3.0 GHz Pentium 4, not sure what card I have, a more recent Radion. Is that good for info?

 

[I-Chan]

Have you tried the settings Kane suggested? Try his opengl2 configs, they should work nice. Or at least use the 'nice' preset.

 

[KarLWF]

Just tried it, and now when I load the BIN, it gets an error and shuts down...

 

[I-Chan]

Wich error? Try to provide more info, you are just too generic, you can't expect us to guess it. Anyway, i think the problem lies in your card drivers. Head to ati's site and get some recent catalyst drivers.

 

[Kane]

My guess is that you are using my settings, but haven't read the details in my guides, liek the bit that says:
Bear in mind that ATi cards do not support 'Very High X', you have to set this to 'High'
or the bit which says
'Internal X resolution set to 2 on ATi cards will not work. nVidia cards from the geForce 3 up will support it (although the GF3 will be damned slow)'

 

[KarLWF]

Yeah, your settings weren't working so I changed them again, so now I can play, but during battles, the screen will flash black and go back again to normal lots of times. And the error wasn't an error really, it would just shut down "The program has generated errors and will now shut down." But I just want to fix the battle screen situation.

 

[Kane]

Well if my settings aren't working and you've changed and it isn't working, could you perhaps, I dunno, tell us the settings that you are using using hte Copy info to clipboard button? Then maybe we might be able to diagnose yuor problem.

Thanks for everything

Hey guys, sorry I am vague, just a noob trying to get help. And I do really appreciate the help. Thanks a LOT for helping.

 

[Kane]

Try increasing 'off-screen drawing', setting the resolution to 640x480 fullscreen, and increasing FB effects/uploads to 3/2

 

[I-Chan]

In fact, with that card, you should use pete's opengl 1.75. My brother has that card, and gets much better results with 1.75 than with 2.6. Kane has settings for 1.75 as well, if you wish to try.

 

[hushypushy]

1. just directly copy Kane's OGL1.75 settings. update your videocard drivers if you're using something out of date. it can't be that hard.
2. please stop double posting, it's turning this thread into an eyesore with too many extra posts.
