v0.2.2

A setup screen for when the game data isn't where sh23ds expects it. The game itself is the same as 0.2.1.

  • No game data: starting sh23ds without its data used to end on a broken title screen. It now says what's wrong, in the website's look, with fog and film grain on the top screen and the install guide's QR code on a memo on the touch screen.
  • Three cases: the data not there at all (the three install steps), in the wrong folder (where it was found, for example the zip unzipped into its own sh23ds-sd folder, and where it belongs), or only partly copied (how many files are missing).
  • Missing files: for a partly copied card, Y opens a list of every missing file on the touch screen, folder by folder. Scroll it with the D-Pad, the Circle Pad, L and R or a finger.
  • Packer: both packers now finish by writing files.txt, the pack's file list, which is what the missing files list is checked against. A card from an older packer still gets the setup screen, with only its key files checked.

Updating from 0.2.1

Install the new sh23ds.cia over the old one. Saves carry over. To get the full missing files list, a pack needs files.txt, so run the packer again only if you want that list.

A native 3DS port of Silent Hill 2 (PC Director's Cut). These files contain no game data: you build that from your own copy of the PC game with the packer.

Install

  1. Build the game data from your Silent Hill 2 folder with the packer page in a desktop browser, or with Docker:
    docker run --rm -v "/path/to/Silent Hill 2:/game:ro" -v "$PWD/sd:/out" ghcr.io/ankushkun/sh23ds-packer
  2. Copy the 3ds folder it makes to the root of the SD card (about 1.3 GB).
  3. Run DSP1 once if sdmc:/3ds/dspfirm.cdc doesn't exist yet.
  4. Install sh23ds.cia with FBI (or put sh23ds.3dsx in sdmc:/3ds/ for the Homebrew Launcher).

Runs on the New 3DS family, and on the original 3DS, 3DS XL and 2DS with a lighter profile that targets 30 fps (tested in Azahar's Old 3DS model, not yet on hardware). The full guide is on the website and in the README. Checksums are in sh23ds.sha256.
