RE2 Problem

Problem no.1
So I've finished Leon A a long long time ago but now that I could play Claire B again it's just really glitchy. One thing is the profile pic, but now the game freezes completely after I get the shotgun in the main hall. Funny thing is that Claire isn't even supposed to get a shotgun. Well, I get the thing and all is fine but if I equip it the game goes apeshit.

Gonna try playing on the other CD if that works.

EDIT: Ok, didn't work. Trying CD2 won't let me load the finished save game from CD1. What the hell? Am I not supposed to pick the shotgun? Besides, I'm thinking that I'm actually playing LEON B with Claire D:


EDIT/EDIT: One thing I want to know from people who have the console version, do you need to switch to Claire CD to play Claire B or are both scenarios on the same disc?


Onto Problem no.2
Got the special key from Brad, don't have any ammo left. Next up is either the room filled with zombies or the licker. I'm pretty much screwed... Any good plan on this? It really doesn't help that I don't remember where anything is D: I started over with Leon A.

I haven't played RE2 for like...6-8 years. Can't help.

So I'm guessing the game is just f'd up.

Thanks for the tips, I might use them on a seperate playthrough as I already started the game over from that point to conserve ammo. I love the special costumes

It's good we have a RE2 expert here now.

i think leon is just showing off his underarm hair in one of the costumes..

claire has good costumes but the Colt S.A.A. for me is useless

Spoiler:

umbrella underwear lol too bad he's gay..

Just fixed the problem. For future reference, you have to go to the files on the CD, open a folder called REGIST and make a shortcut for a program file called LEONP or CLAIREP depending on the disc. After that go to the properties of the shortcut and make it run on 98/ME. Now I can finally play Claire B! Woohoo!

Still, for some reason, all save files are named Leon0_00_Waiting Room.

at least you get to play perfectly with the exception of saving.... i found out that i can play it better by adjusting the resolution but i still don't have the FMV's and i can't use FRAPS on that..

If you want FMV's then you need to download the INDEO codec the file name is IV5SETUP just search it on google, also if your using windows 7 like me just run on windows 98 compatable mode and run as 296 colour or you can also try running it on admin
If this still doesn't work or if the ingame play is a bit choppy then just on your main startup when it gives your the option to intall RE2 or unistall RE2 or start RE2 it should have a option for rage 3D just go into that and you can configure graphics and gameplay lol
If still doesnt work then tell me your next problems and I will try and solve them

thanks for that..

I dont know if that INDEO covers RE3 FMV'S.
Anyways check if you have the folder ZMOVIE and check if there is files instead also check if you have all the Rofs files
the full file type should be Rofs1.DAT for example you should have up to Rofs15.DAT and also check if BIO3_INST.ISS file
if not then I am not quite sure mine works fine and I have cracked it so you get the option for all the seceret outfits as an option at the start and if you go to easy mode and go to your chest you have the gattling gun and rocket launcher etc, but the only thing is I dont have a option to config so you basically need to try and see where the buttons are and also the screen is not fullscreen.
Dont know whats wrong with it, I will try to reinstall and see if it works and if your RE3 doesnt work I am sure I can ...... You know what I mean, if you pm me and ask

i got i'd don't worry...... thanks again

well not actually... but i'm okay with the crap..

Or just buy the actual game.

shit i don't wanna waste some more time on the old games... i'll just play RE4 ,i just downloaded earlier, which works smoothly... though i'm tired seeing that leon's shit ass... but on the bright side such i'm really having a fine time
