![]() This mod upgrades all of the object textures as well as fixing typos, graphical errors and continuity errors. So we'll be updating that to a newer tool called "Dark Mod Manager" (This might sound confusing but I'll guide you through it) ![]() HOWEVER, Blue Mod Manager has been deprecated. Once you click install, SS2Tool will connect to the internet, download some updates, and install the "SS2 Blue Mod Manager" for you. Multiplayer comes with it's own set of Issues, and isn't going to be touched on in this particular guide. If you intend to play Multiplayer co-op, remember to enable it. However, if you use SS2Tool without Enabling it in the Game Options list, it will become disabled again. Multiplayer is not disabled in the Steam version of the game. Be sure to read through every setting and tweak available. Click Next >Ĭlick on the + next to Game options. PERFECT MODE will likely be the only thing that you can select at this point. You will need to follow the steps in the Program Files section above. This tool will not function if your copy of System Shock 2 is installed in the Program Files folder. SS2Tool Download Page [Download this tool, run it and point it to your System Shock 2 installation. SS2Tool is a great program that allows you to apply multiple fixes to the game as well as getting the game fully up and ready for using mods. Once you've done this, you can either reinstall System Shock 2 into this new folder and move any save files and mods you have from your old installation into this new installation, OR you can have Steam move everything over for you by going to the game's Properties, and in the "Installed Files" section, choose Move install folder. Here is where I keep my games when I'm gaming on Windows. Click Steam in the top left > Settings and Click 'Storage'.Ĭlick the + Icon, and make a new SteamLibrary folder anywhere you want. If this is the case, you can make another Steam Library Folder using the Storage feature. If mods are installed correctly, they may start working for you. If you think you might be being affected by this, try moving your copy of Shock 2 from the Program Files folder into another folder like 'C:\Games' and launch it. This varies from machine to machine and some people may not have a problem at all. The long story short is that if you have your copy of System Shock 2 located within either the Program Files or the Program Files (x86) folder, you may encounter problems and some, or all, mods may not work at all. On Windows, the "Program Files" folder is a protected folder that works differently from other folders on your computer. So it's not a stupid soup of mods from various places, but a well-balanced kit made by experienced people with good taste and combined by other talented guys who clearly (and hopefully) know what they are doing.Let's start off with some important information. The Quest notifier is another useful thing that just fits, and I would recommend anyone using it. Thankfully they are not gonna include Rebirth mod which doesn't fit. The texture and music mods leave everything as it was but increases the quality: the game would look and sound much worse on modern PCs if you leave the original assets. ![]() SCP fixes thousands and thousands of those small issues. It's a dilemme whether to leave what is clearly wrong (floating object, wrong texture placement thus overlapping, broken script due to a typo) because "that was the devs' vision" or to fix them. :mad:Īs a veteran shocker I have to admit most of these mods don't change estetics of the game, but rather fix and polish what was left as it were due to the devs were in a rush. This will be some players' first experience with the game and they will see it not how the devs intended it rather how some modder thinks it should be. Quote Posted by iramshahrierWhy are usermods being included with this port is beyond me let alone the fact that none of these are purist friendly. Weâve added more detail to both the poly model and the texture while retaining as much of the original as possible. Here is a quick look at the before and after of the protocol droid. Grosnus' Hi-Res Spinning Marine/Navy/OSA logos ![]() Vurt's Space Textures, Flora, Hi-res Water, Organics/GooĪCC's Four Hundred (400) Hi-res Terrain Textures All the character and weapons models are being remade, and weâve received permission from the Shock community to include many of the mods that have become standard for many Shock 2 veterans. This will be a complete source port to our KEX engine. SS2:EE has evolved into more than what we were intending. Itâs our intention to release both System Shock remake and SS2:EE around the same time. Quote:Weâd also like to announce that anyone who pre-orders System Shock remake will receive System Shock 2: Enhanced Edition for free and ALL Kickstarter/Backerkit backers who backed at the $30 level or higher will also be receiving SS2:EE for free.
