Run the below command to download this env. Please note requirements and recommended args to use below.

wem get ff7-gog --install-workdir /path/to/the/game/installer

You may also run this in your terminal to see the information from this page:

wem get-view --show-env ff7-gog

→ Notes

Run 7th Heaven with: wem run ff7 --exec "{{.RunWorkDir}}/7thHeaven/7th Heaven.exe"
Set RunExe to {{.RunWorkDir}}/7thHeaven/7th Heaven.exe if you want to boot directly into 7th Heaven instead of needing to use --exec or --run-exe.
7th Heaven takes a /LAUNCH arg to automatically launch the game (wem run ff7 --exec "{{.RunWorkDir}}/7thHeaven/7th Heaven.exe" --exec-args "/LAUNCH").
See this env's first image for a suggested mod loadout.
Be sure to use the DX11 renderer for best compatibility and stability.
