Any one has problems with in game cutscenes? In the begginging it was all fine and dandy, but later on it just stopped working. Whenever the cutscene should appear, i can only see a backround, no characters, no details, or objects, just plain backrounds. The camera keeps moving, showing just the backround (like in one scene i could see a port, but no boat or water). It wouldn't be such a problem, but sometimes i have to press buttons during the cutscenes, i can see what buttons to press, but i never know when i should be ready to press them. Anyone knows a solution for this?


did you try updating your video codecs?
k-lite codec pack has always been good for me

Why would you need a codec pack for re4? The cutscenes are plain mpg files.

Being video files it doesnt make sense what you said (Krest) about seeing only the
background, unless you meant what happens after the cutscenes. It may be a trainer's
fault if you use one.


Anyway finished it some days ago, good game even with the lack of graphics etc etc
but it was more like a shooter for me and not survival horror at least in the form
that original RE was.

It wasnt scary at all, so horror goes out the door. Plain hillbillies villagers, star wars robe
wearing sithlords wannabes, el giganto like he escaped from lord of the rings, whatever
bosses with tentacles, possesed troopers, and that mutated monster in the labs.

The American hero saves the day/girl scenario shooting his arse off in a non stop
(except a handfull crappy pointless puzzles) run n' gun action/shooter adventure.
Ending with the main characters escaping a monsterous explosion (RE cliche),
and the hero rejecting the girl (how g@y was that?).


That early video gameplay one posted some pages back:
http://www.gamespot.com/ps2/adventure/residentevil4/video_player.html?id=cndhljD45bsFvjbc

looks tons more original RE survival horror. I would def prefered that one. And its not my
intention to bash re4 cause it did was a great game, just to say that its action/shooter.


Considering that silent hill 4 was also more action based, plus the fact that sh5 as re5 will
propably be in day light, and re4 being a success im afraid that the survival horror genre
as we knew it fades quickly away, cause basically these two titles are the only ones we had
in that genre anyway.


Survival horror for me is creepy atmmoshere & music, small places, claustrophobic angles,
element of surprise to the point you carefully watch your step for what may be
waiting around the corner, wtf was that/is happening feeling, decent monsters and
puzzles that arent idiotic/pointless, all together blended in a good scenario.

RE4 is a great non-stop action/shooter 'thriller?'.

Well i do not see anything but the backround, there are two kinds of cutscenes, ones prerendered (the ones that look shitty-i dont see them at all in the game, in mpeg format) and the other using the game graphics, like when you are running from the rock and you gotta press 3. I only see a backround and prompt to press buttons, so yeah video codec isnt gonna help. I have no idea whats the problem. I tried watching prerendered cutscenes out of the game, and it works just fine, so my codec works.

Codec Packs are evil and they fucked my windows (mostyl conflicts) on more than one occasion.

All that's needed is :

- ffdshow or xvid (i recommend ffdshow)
- AC3 Filter
- H.264 (for HD stuff)
- A good media player ( i recommend VLC)

You can play 99 % of the video files you will find with only these.No need for all the crappy drivers bundled in most codec packs.

Just beat it, what an exelent game. A perfect example of a game where graphics mean so little, its all about the gameplay. Took me 15 hours to beat, i tried to explore every little area i could find, so i took my sweet time. Now i want to get chicago typewrite, and for that i have to complete separate ways, but i cant see it anywhere? Its not in the extras, what is it anyways?
The funny thing was i defeat the final boss in one go, he didnt kill me once (which really surprised me, seeing as other bosses had their way with me, and i usually had to rely on the RPG to kill them), but i died freaking several times escaping in the jet.
Great fuckin game.

Pfft, shows how much you really know playing movies... I recommend you google the difference between a standard, a codec and a decoder.

Can someone clear it up please, some sites like ign says that i only need to beat assignment ada (or ada the spy) to get typewriter, others say i need to beat ada and separate ways, so wich one was it. Seeing as ada was a pain in the ass to complete, i dont want to start the other one. I beat ada but when i started the new game, only unlimited rocket launcher was for sale, but not chicago. But then again i heard that you can buy chicago typewriter only on 2-1?

I got the Chicago typewriter when I completed Ada the spy, could be that I also found all five of those vials or that I completed it rather fast.
(Still unsure what Mercenaries unlocks, only got four other characters to use with it)

If you're using VLC you just wasted your time searching for and installing other codecs as it's self contained Wink

I'll try to get to 2-1 and see if i get it, and without collecting all 5 vials you wouldnt be able to complete assignment ada. Advice to anyone whos gonna complete it, when fighting krauser, use the sniper rifle to shoot him in the legs, one shot brings him down. I was a fool trying to shoot him with the weak ass tmp.
And i think it plays better with the joystick, i mean it was designed that way. I always prefer mouse>>joystick, but this game is the only exception.

seems capcom have taken notice of people not liking the port of res evil 4...

"The posters here are strong with the dark side... they have given in to their hate and it has made them strong.

At the risk of inciting perhaps more riots, a little bird has told me that updated shaders and lighting models will be added via a patch somewhere down the line in time for certain territory releases (I'm not sure if the US release is the territory in question... I'm still trying to get solid information). We don't even had a build of this in our office yet.

Again, I have no idea what the end visual quality will be, only that at some point it should be better than the screens you currently see.

I know a lot of people here are disappointed. I think the only thing I can possibly suggest is wait and see"

Ok i freaking give up, can somebody please upload their save with separate ways completed. I cant complete it, as soon as i kill the final boss and the cutscene ends, the game crashes so i cant save the completed mission. And the freaking tommy gun isnt for sale after i beat that stupid ada the spy mini game, the rocket launcher is there, but not the chicago typewriters. I ran through ada the spy several times and still nothing, tried starting the new game in normal, professional, starting a new game with all my shit from the previous run, NOTHING. Id really apriciate it, ty.
