============
Mounting CDs FIX
============

For the users who mount the CDs, here’s the solution:

Press Start and go to Run, type in regedit, drop down the following folders on the left side, hkey_local_machine, software, square soft inc, final fantasy viii then click on 1.00.
over to the right in the main box now, right click on datapath and select modify, change the drive letter to what ever CD drive your using followed by :, ie f: and it will work fine, and to the problem with a missing disk is solved.

Note : If you can’t find the value “Datapath” in “hkey_local_machine, software, square soft inc, final fantasy viii then click on 1.00″, you will have to BURN the discs to blank CDs. It will work fine even without using the launcher nor changing anything in the registry.

=======
NVidia FIX
=======

If you have NVidia videocard you might end up getting stupid black boxes, here’s the fix for that:

1. Download the Nvidia 1.2 Patch of FFVIII

http://rapidshare.com/files/237835804/FF8SqeaNVPatch.zip

OR

http://rapidshare.com/files/237821186/FF8SqeaNVPatch.zip

2. Download Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable Setup
(You will need it if u want to run ff8 launcher v.1.31)

http://rapidshare.com/files/237815852/vcredist_x86.rar

3. Finally Download FF8 Launcher v.1.31

http://rapidshare.com/files/237815850/ff8_launcher_v1.31.rar

How to use it:
1. Unrar the Nvidia patch into game directory (replace all of the files)
2. Install Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable Setup
3. Unrar FF8 Launcher v.1.31 into a folder of your choice.
(I put the files in the game directory)
4. Run FF8_Launcher.exe, choose your resolution,
activate 8-bit pallets texture fix and if you’re using a widescreen
resolution also activate Stretch 4:3 Aspect Ratio.
