Topic on Talk:Silent Hill 2: Director's Cut

This is a permanent link to a single version of this post. This version is from 22:42, 31 January 2019. You can see the differences from the previous version, or view other versions on the post history page.

the current keypoints:

Unofficial mods enhance the game and make it more playable on modern systems.
Silent Hill 2 PC comes with improved flashlight lighting, a quick-save function, real-time weapon swapping, and a movie gallery.
Frame rate is capped at 30 FPS; use Silent Hill 2 Enhancements to fix.

Information about downgraded shadows, audio and FMVs has been moved elsewhere the fog effects don't even have their own keypoint anymore — "Silent Hill 2 Enhancements is a collection of unofficial mods which implement widescreen resolution support, add PlayStation 2 quality audio and fog[...]" — to my knowledge no one has ported the PS2 fog to PC, the effect was recreated, wasn't it?

I learned about the massive issues in the Silent Hill PC ports from PC Gaming Wiki, without the great articles I'd likely have completed the unfinished versions. I'd argue that in the current of the page new users don't learn about the fog especially.

Even when issues can be improved or solved by mods, negatives should stay negative.
