I just finished watching a fan-subbed version of Final Fantasy: Advent Children, and I'm thinking of reinstalling FF7 to test it with my Sound Canvas (Roland SC-88). I know there are lots of mods and patches, so I thought I should make a thread to help people find some.
First, here are the official patches at Eidos: http://support.eidosinteractive.com/GI/Custom … e=79&platform=3
And some unofficial patches at dlh.net (scroll down to Final Fantasy VII):

Relevant VOGONS threads:
Final Fantasy VII PC
Final Fantasy 7 PC ( FF7 , FF7PC ) ,ATI Radeon cards in WinXP (how to make them friendly!) (looks like it's been 15 months since I last played :))

Also, I was having trouble with notes not stopping on my Roland SC-88 when the game would transition from one song to another. I was able to work around it by passing the MIDI through MIDI-OX + MIDI-Yoke, which seems to mysteriously fix the issue.
If anyone has any additional info, please add it. If the thread gets locked and you have additional info, send me a private message and I'll add it for you. Thanks!
