I agree ... no way musics are totally differents ! WTF I was hearing ? ...

EDIT : I've found a complete tutorial for FFVII even on Vista or 7 (32 or 64bits, so with recents CPU/GPU I think) but it's a french website ... the same thing MUST exist on an american website ! ... Let's try it

In retrospect, though, the sound quality of Final Fantasy VII was pretty bad across the board (even at the time this was an issue) - regardless if it was on a PS1 or a PC with XG synth. It was only when Final Fantasy VIII was released that the music started to become semi-passable quality-wise - but I was always surprised that these games which ran on supposedly better hardware always had chiptune music that sounded notably inferior to the SNES' SPC700. (well, except if they used sampled music and so on).

I'm surprised they didn't do orchestral quality music, maybe they were running really tight for disc space though (then again they already used 3, 4 wouldn't have hurt).

But now that has got me thinking. Is there a way to replace the music in the PC version with the FFVII Remastered versions?

I disagree :\ I remember no such issues with the PS1 version of the game and audio, even considering I only recently finished FFVII *again* on my PS1 back in England. To my ears, the audio in FFVII was great (though you are right in saying FFVIII far surpassed it) and there can simply be no comparison between the PSF original and the XG-MIDI synthesised versions - and the audio was by far superior, even so early into the PS1 life cycle, to earlier FF titles utilising the SPC700.

Ficedula's work (namely his app called "FF7Music") makes it possible, though a bit cumbersome having to replace every track.

FF7 Music Patch | Final Fantasy 7 PC

**Kyo13** · 12-05-2010,10:17 AM

Ok works on Windows 7 x64 here !

With i7 950 CPU and ATi HD5870 Graphic Card. But how it hurts on a 24" monitor. No HD videos too ? XD

C* can you tell me where you are having problems please ? I have tested with my original version, but only on V1.00 for the moment.

Thanks Sabin1981 for the link ! I think I will try with that musics now. I've found another way to use original PS1 musics on the PC version too ! Well it's named FF7Music too ?! But claims to be the PSF musics ... Don't understand.

You're welcome =) FF7Music is a tool that basically relinks the calls for .MID (the standard) to .XXX whatever else you want. PSF is the original format of PS1 audio, so you can use those, but it also allows you to use MP3 as well.

Ok now I understand ! Iv'e found an OpenGL patch for FFVII. Graphics are better now !

I thought there was an 1.2 Update for the game but all I found seems to be the 1.02 Nvidia Patch.

EDIT : Links seems dead for the FF7 musics on the website you've linked

I'm trying to find it.

**sabin1981** · 12-05-2010,10:50 AM

The 1.02 patch was often just simply called "1.2" - so don't worry, you've got the latest one. Here's a mirror list for all of Ficedula's programs, including 1.10 of FF7Music;

Ficedula Download Mirror - Aaron's Web Page

And a link to some of the more popular mods and fixes;

There used to be an upload of some higher quality movies too, though I can't find anything atm.

**Kyo13** · 12-05-2010,10:52 AM

So that was the same patch thanks. In fact I didn't installed the 1.02 patch since I have an ATi graphic card but I'm having an issue with the OpenGL patch so I'm gonna try it.

Thanks again for the link ! For me it's allright now ! If I can help making it works for other ?!

Wow I was joking for movies but well if it's real ... thanks for all the informations !
