I don't know if it's just me or do the battle textures and that improve but when not in battle it still looks like a mess?

Won't matter to me as teh V5 filters 2d too.

Bleh! Teasing Geforce users

and non XP users. would an non xp mod have been that hard or am i not seeing a link?

K.I.L.E.R · July 18th, 2002

It is only for XP.

Sorry to the 9x users

BTW 4x with the guassion filter comes VERY CLOSE to 4x (3dfx AA) and beats the 3dfx 2x FSAA mode.

Ninjaa · July 18th, 2002

but it's still not as sharp as the V5 IMO.

Why aint there one for 9x users!poor us!

**Kane** · July 25th, 2002

Because Final Fantasy VII runs in 98, it doesn't in XP

I've been trying for an hour to find this patch but all I found were broken links. I can't find it on WinMX either. This is the one time google hath failed me. Can anyone tell me where I can get this? I was considering buying the playstation version until I heard about this.

K.I.L.E.R · July 26th, 2002

Get your PSX version and emulate.

Lots more graphical options. : D

alanm26 · July 26th, 2002

Yeah I know, but I already have the PC version. I emailed voodoofiles about their broken link but I haven't heard anything back yet.

K.I.L.E.R · July 27th, 2002

Well there is 1 thing that is better than emulating. Battles using DXT 1 textures. Much higher grade. Not sure if you can get textures looking that good by emulating the PSX version. Can someone confirm?

Fr0g · July 27th, 2002

my ff7 for the pc already runs with filtering without any additional patches... its just me or im missing something? o.O

FF7 seems to have varying effects for people in XP.

I downloaded the patch version 1.3 and found that while the game works fine, anti-aliasing with my Geforce4 4200 card is an absolute disaster. The author (who promptly responds to inquiries and is very helpful, by the way) said that his 1.3 release eliminated all those artifacts for his Geforce4 MX card. I would have thought that the AA would be identical for both cards, but apparently I'm wrong on that point.

The music is generally ok, but there is a fair amount of popping on my Montego II Aureal audio card. Still, I'm playing the game again anyway. Would love to get the AA working, but am having a blast nonetheless. Gotta have something to do until Mario Sunshine comes out . . .

Actually, it looks like Cobra has now released version 1.3a. I'll have to see what it fixes.
