I have the same feeling. Like, there were cases when it loaded right away, but I can't pinpoint what it is. I tried many different FFNx settings, but nothing consistent. Could be my GPU with this version of FFNx.

Okay so, I have it figured out. What it turns out to be is, it stays on black frames for some time, then the sequence actually begins. It's not a real softlock, it just strangely takes that long to load into the field cutscene. Also skipped to the next FMV to double check. youtu.be/1TR-18cvixk

You're welcome. XD And here I was hoping I was onto something, as something very similar happened before for another unrelated project. XD

010

鋼の聖女アプリリス @lilithelessar.bsky.social · 07/10/2026

Interesting. I have a feeling this might somehow be related. Left is SAC, right is Vanilla. There has to be something really stupid, maybe Japanese locale, OS language to Japanese, or something. And it's doing things to that FMV specifically as well.

110

鋼の聖女アプリリス @lilithelessar.bsky.social · 07/10/2026

I hope streaming for Japanese people will bring users in. XD I'll just use another FMV for now as you suggested, maybe someone will pop up eventually if it's a recurring thing. Thank you again for all the support. I may try pinning a 7TH guide, see if it pulls peeps in.

鋼の聖女アプリリス @lilithelessar.bsky.social · 07/10/2026

Nothing, and I redownloaded it today once again for the sake of reinstalling. Chances the uploaded IRO could be corrupted, while your local files are fine? Unless other people already downloaded and tried it and they're fine.

100

鋼の聖女アプリリス @lilithelessar.bsky.social · 07/10/2026

I reinstalled and managed to make the language bypass work again. I still have the same issue with just this FMV, however I can't seem to be able to do a fresh import of SAC. It always tells me it's already in my library when I do. How do I even do a fresh install?🤔

100

鋼の聖女アプリリス @lilithelessar.bsky.social · 07/10/2026

I'm running a final test as I write this. Vanilla JP is fine, as well as FFNx only. It turns out, no text FMV and demo text FMV are fine. Subtitles also look higher quality in the final FMV, are they softcoded? Because it's the only FMV that does this.

100

鋼の聖女アプリリス @lilithelessar.bsky.social · 07/10/2026

Yes, that's all the same. 7th Heaven I grabbed the Canary from the official website, then had it install Canary FFNx. I can just reinstall everything to fix the language bypass, I just don't see why it goes black screen. I tried without any mod, just FFNx, and it runs just fine.🤔

100

鋼の聖女アプリリス @lilithelessar.bsky.social · 07/10/2026

I'm totally lost. Not only the language bypass doesn't work anymore, but it turns out it was never the music mod, it's just the screen going black.

100

鋼の聖女アプリリス @lilithelessar.bsky.social · 07/10/2026

Okay, I'll do a fresh install of both FFVII and 7th Heaven. Is Canary FFNx fairly reliable, or should I stay on the stable branch?

110

鋼の聖女アプリリス @lilithelessar.bsky.social · 07/10/2026

So first, this turns itself on when I launch 7th Heaven, and off after. I wonder if FFNx is looking for music in the wrong directory and, according to the mod thread itself, I should swap to PSF and enter the bios type as well.

100

鋼の聖女アプリリス @lilithelessar.bsky.social · 07/10/2026

I might have an idea about what the issue is. For some reasons, when I launch 7th Heaven, the FFNx toml file updates itself to use external music, which is what I did manually. I'm gonna try something real quick.

110

鋼の聖女アプリリス @lilithelessar.bsky.social · 06/10/2026

Ooooh, I see. All right, I'll just wait for an update on the music mod, as clearly it's beyond me if there are things to modify within the patch itself. Once again, thank you for the support.

110

鋼の聖女アプリリス @lilithelessar.bsky.social · 06/10/2026

Okay, it does allow me to activate the mod with the JP exe, but it still softlocks after the FMV. Also, the mod states there are restored BGMs as well: what would happen with those?

110

鋼の聖女アプリリス @lilithelessar.bsky.social · 06/10/2026

So, this forces me to enter an exe, which would then cause the game to run twice.

100

鋼の聖女アプリリス @lilithelessar.bsky.social · 06/10/2026

Actually, no. I installed it manually way before SAC. I'll try that. By the way, the bypass command goes into the game launcher arguments, or?

110

鋼の聖女アプリリス @lilithelessar.bsky.social · 06/10/2026

The thing is, the mod itself softlocks as the first FMV finishes playing back. So I wonder if I should force it beforehand.

100

鋼の聖女アプリリス @lilithelessar.bsky.social · 06/10/2026

Thank you again for all the help. Now I'll just wait for compatibility with the music mod, then I can finally stream it. I can't wait to! :D

010

鋼の聖女アプリリス @lilithelessar.bsky.social · 06/10/2026

I have figured it out. I was under the impression I had to add the JP exe to this tab. Instead, it's a "launch this prior to", so it launches vanilla FFVII. It creates these lines with the path to the other exe, which I could use for ShaderGlass.🤔

110

鋼の聖女アプリリス @lilithelessar.bsky.social · 05/10/2026

Thank you very much for the support so far. It might be something new, maybe with the canary. Aside from the fact JP didn't work til a month ago, when I used it back in August, this didn't happen. Infact, I looked for it on my own, and found nothing.

010

鋼の聖女アプリリス @lilithelessar.bsky.social · 05/10/2026

I tried restarting Steam before posting, but that doesn't fix it. I thought it could've been due to Steam Compatibility, but that didn't fix it either. I haven't done anything else to the game, except for enabling SAC and temporarily disable the music mod.

100

鋼の聖女アプリリス @lilithelessar.bsky.social · 05/10/2026

Yes. When I click play in 7th Heaven, 2 separate windows pop up. One is untouched, the other is SAC.

100

鋼の聖女アプリリス @lilithelessar.bsky.social · 05/10/2026

Very cool, I'm so happy you're making SAC JP compatible with other resources. The music mod is literally the final step to a perfect experience in my book. Now finally, last thing: is there any reason 7th Heaven runs an unpatched FFVII alongside SAC?

100

鋼の聖女アプリリス @lilithelessar.bsky.social · 05/10/2026

Right, that makes sense. So, as you said, the music mod won't work, as it softlocks the game when it switches from the 1st FMV to the field. Is there any other way to experience the original music, or a chance it can be made compatible in the future?

110

鋼の聖女アプリリス @lilithelessar.bsky.social · 05/10/2026

Here we go. So, likely the fact I patched the exe was the reason it didn't run. All I can say about the music mod is, I installed that manually by downloading the files and edit the toml file. It runs, I just don't know if it works alongside SAC.

110

鋼の聖女アプリリス @lilithelessar.bsky.social · 05/10/2026

It's the only version I have. I'm gonna try something real quick, I might have an idea as to why it's happening. I only use the music mod to restore the original OST and SAC. Do I need to patch the exe to allocate more than 2GB of RAM?

100

鋼の聖女アプリリス @lilithelessar.bsky.social · 05/10/2026

Thanks for confirming it. It's just that, for some reasons, I can launch the game outside of 7th Heaven, but it returns an error in the mod manager. It finds the .exe, but it fails to load due to corrupted DLL/exe. I did the verify integrity and updated FFNx.

100

鋼の聖女アプリリス @lilithelessar.bsky.social · 05/10/2026

Nevermind, that must be the UI. And this one the game itself.

110

鋼の聖女アプリリス @lilithelessar.bsky.social · 05/10/2026

Sorry to bother you again about it, but I downloaded the latest Canary from the 7th Heaven website. Is this the setting relevant to make FFVII run in Japanese? Because I see no option for Japanese.

100

鋼の聖女アプリリス @lilithelessar.bsky.social · 04/10/2026

Ooooh, that's why it didn't work when I patched it the first time. I would try to have 7th Heaven use the JP executable, but it would just ignore the selection and stay on EN. Bad timing on my part, or I would've jumped into it in the next few days.

010

鋼の聖女アプリリス @lilithelessar.bsky.social · 04/10/2026

Oh, interesting. I had no idea it was a thing, I used it like once many years ago. I'll do that as I have some time to get around to play it, thanks for the tip.

110

鋼の聖女アプリリス @lilithelessar.bsky.social · 04/10/2026

Been waiting for it, thank you for the hard work! For some reasons, I couldn't quite get the 2026 version on Steam to run in Japanese with 7th Heaven, so I patched it manually. Will there be support for standalone installation?

SAC is now fully ported to Japanese. still need to do a playthrough and confirm all textboxes are correct. if you want to help or just play through for fun, here's the link to the IRO. note you have to have the latest canary versions of 7th heaven and FFNx installed! drive.google.com/file/d/10ujq...
