As the title says, I can't download patch 1.8 from Drive as it says its a virus and only the author of the file or whatever can download it. 1.7 can download but I would want to play on the current version of the patch.
I was wondering what most people here used to run the pc version on the game. Mouse and keyboard feels great for the older games but this one is just feels off for whatever reason for me.
Try a reinstall. I was having trouble with BIOHARD creating black boxes around collisions on my desktop so I tried moving the files from my laptop to the desktop to see if it would work and I got this error then. I reinstalled like normal and I didnt get the error again so maybe that can help you.
I too have this problem. My laptop could run this fine but I just recently got a new PC with the same OS and yet it has those black boxes for no apparent reason. Also if I try running it via the .exe file the characters on screen are like at the top of the screen which is weird.
Nevermind, I tried what you recommended the second time and it ended up working after I rebooted my PC. Thank you for your help, I appreciate it.
Just tried that and for whatever reason it made RE2 run super slow and didn't work even when I got to the options menu.
Still having the same issue. Everything will work except the d-pad. The joystick works even though I didn't map it in xpadder for whatever reason.
Whenever I try to use a controller the game just acts like the d-pad doesn't exist when I try to input commands. I can use the joystick and any other button but not the d-pad. I have tried both the dualshock 3 and 4 controllers but the game won't accept commands from either d-pad. I've also tried xpadder and joy2key but to no avail. I also have this issue with RE1 and 3, but I want to try to run 2. Thanks in advance.
