Read THIS. Either beat up your cousin and get your game back, or accept your fate.

Hi everyone,

i know that there might be some ppl who are still looking for a gamepatch.

however check the site i posted and look for the 1.2(or geforce) patch. there is one very important thing to do, which costed me almost 2 hours till i figured it out.

when you copy the 1.2ver exe from cd 2, remember to REMOVE THE READ-ONLY from the exe, otherwise the gamefix wont work. Last but not least copy every datax.pak and every datax to your game dir; copy field2.fs from the last cd to your data dir, and every thing else should work from there.

Okay, I found that in my case, the game installed to "*:\Program Files\Square Soft, Inc\FINAL FANTASY VIII\".

The crack/nocd/patch has some trouble with that directory, so I moved the file ff8.exe and the crack/nocd/patch to the root of the drive/partition, and opened a command-prompt, and ran the crack, and it worked perfectly.

So, if you keep getting a "file is in use/cannot access file/whatever error message when you try to "fix" your exe, then you should try moving it into a more simple location to patch the file, then just copy/move it back.

It works perfectly for me, and I'm on xp sp2 with a geforce 2 mx, so I anticipated an uphill battle.

Needless to say, it worked out better than I thought it would.

The only rpoblem I'm having now is the fact that there is no volume control for the annoying in-game music.

The music is good, but I don't want music, and it can't be disabled, and the volume is permenently set at 100%.

I'm thinking of putting some zero'ed mp3s in place of the real music.

The crack/nocd/patch has some trouble with that directory

I think it's the "," in the directory name, why the patch has trouble with it.

ok i have the crack named inferno it say -
copy the files Disc1.pak, Disk1, Disc2.pak, Disk2, Disc3.pak,
Disk3, Disc4ger.pak, Disk4 to the rootdirectory of FF8

- copy the Field2.fs to the \Data dir

- check the dirsize of FF8 [1,77GB]

- run the crack

i did everything, my ff8 folder size is 1.77 file so its suppose to be ok but when i apply the patch it say:the size of selected of the file you selected doesnt match.You are about to patch the wrong file continy anyway?.

what i need to do !??

Hi guys,

and another stranger uses the internet comunity to play a game without a ****ty, squeaking cd-rom drive

I already tried the FBSA-Crack, but it says, that the filesize doesn't fit in. If anyone got a solution for me, send me a PM.

Bye

Make sure the crack is for the correct version AND region of the game.

Would be VERY glad if someone here could send me the crack since it says enter disk 1 even though i've done all the things that are required..

Saw that some of you had received the crack via this forum and I can't find it myself on gamecopyworld.com so I would greatly appreciate it if someone could send it to me

i use the inferno fix, its the one that has a big InF with the flaming background... the trick is, if you have the game copied to your hdd like they tell you to, or if you have a backup or illegal copy or whatever, all you have to do is update the game first... the version all you guys probably have is just plain old version 1... first, you have to update the ff8.exe by downloading the patch... i would recommend http://www.filefront.com, thats what i use for most of my gaming needs...

don't download the first patch, download v1.2... if you have a geforce card, which you probably do, download that one, and make sure its the US version of the patch... if you don'tk now what video card you have, then i'm not even gonna bother helping you, and don't try e-mailing me...

after you have downloaded the patch, you can leave it there and patch it with the InF fix or you can copy the patch into your ff8 folder and do it there, doesn't really matter... it'll say that the game isn't in the right format, blah blah blah, but just override it, cause it'll still work even though it says it shouldn't... the CRC is just a few bits off, cause i checked it myself... after that, you should be pretty much done... don't forget to read the info file that coems with the patch that you download off of filefront, cause theres some other files that you need to copy into the directory, or it won't work...

your welcome
