Retail | 3.5" floppy version or Enhanced CD Version | |||
GOG.com | Bundled with System Shock: Enhanced Edition. Includes both the floppy and CD versions.[3] | |||
Steam | Bundled with System Shock: Enhanced Edition as Classic Edition. |
Version differences
- The classic Mac OS version was substantially improved during the porting process. It features high-res (640x480 vs DOS's 320x200) menus, fonts & UI elements. It also had 3 studio quality bonus tracks.[4] It was used as the basis for the Source Port Update of the Enhanced Edition.
Demo
- A demo is available for the floppy version.
Essential improvements
Run in DOSBox
To improve DOSBox performance make the following changes to the DOSBox configuration file:
- Change
output=surface
tooutput=opengl
- Change
memsize=16
tomemsize=32
- Change
core=normal
tocore=dynamic
- Change
aspect=false
toaspect=true
- Change
fullresolution=original
tofullresolution=desktop
Gigaquad's Enhanced log texts mod
- Gigaquad's Enhanced log texts mod matches the audio and text dialogue.
DOS32A
DOS32A is a more advanced extender and open source replacement to DOS4GW. It can improve both performance and stability of System Shock.
- System Shock has DOS4GW bound to each of its executables. Use the command
sb /r sshock.exe
orcdshock.exe
to replace it.
System Shock Portable/SSPTool
A useful tool for those who don't own Enhanced Edition. Was formerly a community made abandonware package of the full game, though this was later changed to require the user to provide the game data after the game was released on GOG.
- Easy to use configuration utility.
- Provides all the above mods already in the package.
- Has an installer that can easily find cd data.
- Requires Windows, does not work on Mac nor Linux. Config files and mod components can still be used.
- Still not native, unlike the Enhanced Edition. Also included DOSBox components may be out of date.
