Cool that people are still making mods for the game.

Still a goddamn awful game in every way, but cool nonetheless.

Downpour and Origins are better.

Yeah well, thanks, but as of now, I have only PS4 and X1X. Besides my PC haveIntel Core i9-7940X, but only cheap 1050Ti GPU to drive my monitors. So would that be enough?

GTX 1050 Ti should be enough methinks.

BTW if anyone wants to get the game but it isn't showing in their Steam region, you can get keys for it from here

I actually enjoyed this on PS3. Not the best SH by a long shot, but I didn't find it terrible. Good to see people improving the PC version.

I enjoyed it as a horror game. Doesn't add much to the SH universe, though. I think it has some brilliant moments too. It's cool to see a mod like this come out. A little OT but What's the best way to play Downpour right now? It's the only SH game I've missed.

I'll try the game this way eventually (my first pc playthrough attempt got cut short) but god do I wish Downpour was getting some of these fixes and improvements instead. :(

What I wouldn't give to have the other SH games on steam.

Just a heads up: The site mentions that the game should be played Windowed, unless you don't mind playing at a resolution smaller than your screen that way, you can use software such as Borderless Gaming to make it Borderless Windowed (it is still windowed but without the title bar at the top and your rig will treat the game as if it is running Windowed but it'll be to the size of your screen be it 1080p or higher)

Wait a minute, isn't patch from youtube video and patch from Steam006 guy are different things (one is g_SilentHill.sgl replacer other is dll with ini and exe files)? Or they work together?
Still i only tried one that replaces g_SilentHill.sgl (+patch with playstation button prompts) and it works pretty good! You only need to cap 60 fps (or whatever you want) with RTSS or framepacing issues will be wild, still game stutters a little during cutscenes.
Also SH:H on sale on Greenmangaming (88% discount) right now.

Some screenshots (with forced 4xSGSSAA and HBAO+ through Nvidia Inspector), sorry for jpg's though lol

Homecoming it's actually the game that got me into the Silent Hill series so I have very fond memories of it. SH1 became my favorite and then SH2 but I liked Homecoming more than 0,3,4 and the rest...

You should be good if you are downloading from the original link. WD probably just detects some weird .exe or setup and deletes it just in case.

No, it was on Wii, PS2 and PSP. All 3 you can very easily emulate on PC with very good results.

This isn't correct, IMO. The PS2 version of Shattered Memories is completely broken in emulation. Something about the game's streaming system seems to send PCSX2 haywire. PPSSPP has major problems with the flashlight rendering. Wii emulates perfectly, and it has far superior graphics, but those waggle controls are so irritating.

GMG having this for less than $5 plus this thread equals me really wanting it. I'm pretty much a casual SH fan who has played through the first two and some of the third.

For what it's worth, I recall being able to emulate the PS2 version fairly successfully a couple of months ago. Seemed to work without any notable issues.

I played the PSP version on original hardware and turning off the flashlight improved performance and made everything much more snapper from what I remember about that lol.

The game has many many many shortcomings but one of the best and most unsettling stories of a SH game. I wish to have a powerful PC to try this out. If you have the means, give it a chance, but just for the story.

I remember when I got Homecoming and soon realized that there wasn't an option to invert the normal camera. And I actually sent an email to support and got a reply saying that it was "by design". I proceeded to play Dead Space instead, which offered me the exact control scheme I expected from 3rd person games.

Downpour is a rough but inspired game to say the least. The story in Shattered Memories intrigues me but I've never gotten far as I hate the actual playing of the game. I hate everything about that game that isn't cutscenes (even then the story was going in a direction that felt... predictable; I feel like I know what the ending will be
He was dead all along!!!!
). Origins was a dull but enjoyable game with a mostly dumb story. Homecoming is a game with some cool moments that was visually impressive at the time and has a great soundtrack but overall it's kind of awful. SH1... great music and atmosphere but otherwise doesn't really hold up. SH4 is frustrating to play but I love the story. SH3 is fantastic as is SH2. SH2&3 are all time classics.

Whaaaaat, naw. Homecoming is pretty much among the most hated along with completely out there games like Book of Memories. Origin & Downfall certainly aren't perfect (or even great...or, good, in most cases) but they are in a whole other league than this:
latest


SH: Homecoming is a legit embarassement and shows a complete and utter disregard for absolutely everything the Series stands for.
