Classic Rebirth

The people have spoken

Since this is high request in several spots, I'll make it into a community goal like Resident Evil 3 was. Same perks, same flashy thing like constant dev streams, early builds for supporters, etc.

More of Pete's Soft Driver DX9

Pretty much a finalized version of this brief port project.

• Plugin renamed to "Pete's Soft Driver" to avoid confusion with the original plugin and to be consistent with later releases by Pete.
• Fixed a few oddities with the overlay interface changing size, being misplaced, or ...

Pete software plugin DX9 for ePSXe and PCSX

A quick revision of Pete's old software emulator plugin. This one is especially useful for emulating 2D games on plugin-based emulators.

Replaces DirectDraw interface with DirectX9, but drops enhancements in the process. Those effects will probably be reimplemented later as shaders instead ...

One dangerous zombie

Ok, maybe not really that dangerous since he's as difficult as regular zombies, but hey, at least Zombie Forest is almost here. This will be useful later for the Director's Cut mode that I'm planning to release at some point along with the revised Classic REbirth 1.

For those who love techn...

Too much RE2?

Don't worry, RE1 is getting some good deserved love, too.

All the experience I collected while patching RE2 is going to be used for some very effective hacking, including some quick port of Mod-sdk, which is already in there, it's just not hooked into anything really. The screenshot in this...

Proper DualShock®4 support

A few new features will be included with patch 1.0.7 regarding DualShock®4 support. These are a set of proper buttons for the configuration screen, rumble support, and led light reflecting current health levels. All buttons are properly recognized and displayed, including triggers, home button, ...

Cutscene skipping update #2

Marvin skips fine now.

What Gold Edition looks like

This is what $10 tier backers get. A fancy build for you to show to your friends, or stream users! The "GOLD EDITON" label will be in the title screen, the title bar, and the version info dialog. It doesn't add any real extra functionality, but it's a nice way to show that you're a supportive bac...

New feature on the way

Who said cutscene skipping? Yup, it's almost here, with fade in/out too.
