Key points
- Includes redone lighting, upscaled and enhanced textures, a new "Very Easy" difficulty, a new optional control scheme (tank controls are optional), BSAA outfits from Resident Evil 5, and 60 FPS support.
- When using the 30 or 60 FPS options, the game speed is tied to the frame rate. So if you drop frames, the game will slow down. Not so with the variable option.
- Internal rendering resolution is forced at 1920x1440, which can cause performance issues on some low-medium range systems. See Poor performance or slowdowns.
- Some soundtracks in the game are reproduced faster than the original version. Install the Fixed background music to patch this bug.

Widescreen resolution
- Player can toggle between original 4:3 or cropped pan-and-scan 16:9. The game uses pre-rendered backgrounds which are all stuck in 4:3.
- In 16:9 aspect ratio, the 4:3 backgrounds are cropped and zoomed in with a camera pan added as the character moves higher and lower on the screen. Unfortunately, many areas are still cropped on the top or bottom in 16:9, so purists will want to choose 4:3 original aspect ratio. FMVs and cutscenes are also cropped in 16:9.
Adjust aspect ratio[citation needed] |

Issues unresolved
Swapped animations
- In the elevator of the laboratory, the one that goes into the lowest floor, the animations of going up and down are swapped. This can cause a minor confusion in the player.[citation needed]
Issues fixed
Game fails to start
- The game may fail to start on newer systems, displaying a black window for a brief moment before quitting.
- The first cause may be NVIDIA's Enhanced GPU Scaling feature.
Disable Enhanced GPU Scaling |
---|
|
- The second cause may be that the game does not support very high resolutions.
Disable Dynamic Super Resolution |
---|
In my testing, 5K (5120×2880) will crash the game, but 4703×2645 (4K at 1.50×) does not. Ultra-wide resolutions, such as 3840×1600, may also cause the game to crash. |
- The third cause may be NVIDIA'S Vertical sync setting.
Disable Vertical sync in NVIDIA Control Panel |
---|
If this solves the issue, you can create an exception for this game in the Program Settings tab. That way, you can have Vertical sync enabled globally for your other games, but have it disabled only for this game. |
- The fourth cause may be output colour depth set too high.
Switch to 8 bpc |
---|
|
Poor performance or slowdowns
- The mod below may dramatically increase FPS. It works by removing an unneeded call to query the game for its current state every frame.
Apply frame rate fix[8] |
---|
|
- The mod below allows you to override the texture creation parameters (width and height) that the game uses while creating the various textures. This can help with lower-end systems that have FPS problems.
Adjust texture rendering resolution[9] |
---|
|
Run the game at screen refresh rate
- Fullscreen mode only offers the option to use a refresh rate of 60 Hz or less, even if the screen refresh rate is set higher than that.
Set screen refresh rate[6] |

|
Use ForceFix |
