does the xbox360 controller works on this one?


no, the devs said they totally scrapped 360 controller support for a "better and polished pc gaming experience". Whatever that means, im kinda bummed out by that cuz i like me some controller gaming.

Don't know what that 3D stereo setting is, 3D glasses maybe? I have some of those shitty Red/blue 3d glasses somewhere if it is.

How did they circumvent the datecheck? Any theories?

nvm I see they 'fixed' the launcher. Unbelieveable it could be that easy.


They didn't, the Australian release was about 8-9 hours ago.(Atleast if the activation page is to be trusted)

For nvidia users:

You can create an entry for bioshock2 in your nvapps.xml (in windows 7 it us located in C\ProgrammData\Nvidia or use nhancer which i dont recommend. This enables 4xaa. FPS drop on my GTX 275 on 1920x1080 is from constant 60fps to 30-60 fps. Maybe other feature bits would be better for performance. I am just trying to figure out if I can find better settings.

Code:

      <PROFILE Label="Bioshock 2: Sea of Dreams">
         <APPLICATION Label="Bioshock2Launcher.exe"/>
         <PROPERTY Label="multichip_rendering_mode" Value="0x02C00005" Default="0x02C00005" Itemtype="predefined"/>
         <PROPERTY Label="hybrid_rendering_mode" Value="0x00000001" Default="0x00000001" Itemtype="predefined"/>
         <PROPERTY Label="multichip_dx10_rendering_mode" Value="0x002121F5" Default="0x002121F5" Itemtype="predefined" OS_TYPE="Vista"/>
         <PROPERTY Label="hybrid_dx10_rendering_mode" Value="0x00000001" Default="0x00000001" Itemtype="predefined" OS_TYPE="Vista"/>
         <PROPERTY Label="ambient_occlusion_flags" Value="0x00020000" Default="0x00020000" Itemtype="predefined"/>
         <PROPERTY Label="aa_feature_bits" Value="0x00000145" Default="0x00000145" Itemtype="predefined"/>
         <PROPERTY Label="d3d10_aa_feature_bits" Value="0x80000F71" Default="0x80000F71" Itemtype="predefined" OS_TYPE="Vista"/>
         <PROPERTY Label="aa_default" Value="0x00000010" Default="0x00000000"/>
         <PROPERTY Label="aa_selector" Value="0x10000000" Default="0x00000000"/>
      </PROFILE>


By the way: I tried it also on the 360. There the graphics are even worse. Lokks like it renders at 600p on a 47 inch and even the framerate is not the best. Almost looks like a Wii game Sad

Will go for the pc version. Still looks like shit but aa just makes it bearable and I like the atmosphere.

Problem solved, forgot to copy some razor files from image

Well, tried a couple of things and googled around, but it still crashes as soon as I launch (Securom launcher stopped working).
The original launcher works but then of course it checks the date.
Did anybody come across a similar issue before?

OK, I'm probably a moron...going to check

For the pc version the FOV was way to narrow (like tunnel vision) on widescreen monitors. It was later fixed in an update.

well, in my case i was a moron, and assumed that all the correct razor files were in the crack fix torrent. But actually you need to go and copy over all the stuff from the razor folder in the image release, and then complete with the fixed launcher.
Now it's working Wink
