Marvel vs. Capcom 2 1.0.2

Marvel vs. Capcom 2 for Windows x64, a static recompilation of the Original Xbox game (NTSC-U, serial CC-007). You need your own copy of the game: a disc image (.iso or .xiso) or a folder with its files. No game data is included.

Downloads

• MvC2-Setup-1.0.2.exe: installs the game and copies the game files from your disc image or folder. Its optional hi-res texture pack task downloads the pack (634 MB) from the textures-1 release. Run it over 1.0.0 or 1.0.1 to update: your game files, saves and settings are kept.
• MvC2-v1.0.2-Windows-x64.zip: for RecompLauncher (Level 3: it imports and checks your disc itself).
• The hi-res textures can also be added later with MvC2-HiRes-Textures-1-Setup.exe from the textures-1 release (unchanged).

What's new in 1.0.2: problem reports

• Each run now keeps a log in %LOCALAPPDATA%\MvC2Recomp\logs (the last three runs). Your Windows user name is blanked out in it.
• If the game freezes for 10 seconds or crashes, the log records what each part of the game was doing at that moment and the video settings in use. That is usually enough to find the cause, so please send the log with any freeze or crash report.
• The video settings (render scale, upscaling, sprite filter, fullscreen, window size, VSync, hi-res textures) are logged at start and whenever you change one.
• Report a problem in the settings program (config.exe) opens the logs folder with the newest log selected, and a new GitHub issue already filled in with the game version and your PC details. With RecompLauncher, its own report button sends the log for you.
• The logging runs in the background and does not affect the game's speed.

Includes the 1.0.1 fix for the freeze after a few fights.

Marvel vs. Capcom 2 1.0.1

Marvel vs. Capcom 2 for Windows x64, a static recompilation of the Original Xbox game (NTSC-U, serial CC-007). You need your own copy of the game: a disc image (.iso or .xiso) or a folder with its files. No game data is included.

Downloads

• MvC2-Setup-1.0.1.exe: installs the game and copies the game files from your disc image or folder. Its optional hi-res texture pack task downloads the pack (634 MB) from the textures-1 release.
• MvC2-v1.0.1-Windows-x64.zip: for RecompLauncher (Level 3: it imports and checks your disc itself).
• The hi-res textures can also be added later with MvC2-HiRes-Textures-1-Setup.exe from the textures-1 release (unchanged from 1.0.0).

What's new in 1.0.1

• Fixed a post-fight freeze that could lock the game after a few matches. Xbox has no RtlDeleteCriticalSection, so titles that free heap objects containing locks abandoned entries in the host critical-section shadow table until it filled; further locks became no-ops and the game raced into a hang. 1.0.1 reclaims idle abandoned slots (toolkit patch 0023-cs-table-reclaim).
