FF VII and new graphics cards?

[ChunkDog]

Well, this game is the s***, and I would like to use it on my updated PC, but FFVII requires a graphics card with 8 bit paletted texture support, witch my 9700 Pro does not have. Anyone know of a way to "Emulate" this feature so I dont have to play hte game in software rendering mode .

Do you have the playstation version?

If not, it would be in your best interest to obtain it and use a PSX emulator to get your Cloud on. The PC version of FFVII is "okay," at best. You need to see it in 1024x768x32 4xAA.

Check it out...I'm sure there's more than a few of us that have done this type of thing before. Happy hunting.

Thanx for the reply, I guess I could try that, but the only problem is if I can even get the game, and even then I wont be able to use my old svaed game
