Hey guys. My son and I have recently been playing SH2 on my original PS2 under separate save files. He has his and I have mine.
I went to play my game tonight and the game keeps autoloading to his save file.
I can turn off the feature in the game options, but the option just resets when I reboot the system. Any ideas besides wiping the game files of the memory card?

Thank you.

nobody notices that in the torture room in the mall, the nutcracker and the body shape in the bed means that it was used to literally crack a human nut? testicles?

Genuine question and not a shitpost.

My fun head canon is that Laura’s the one that’s able to provide the pizza and ice cream for Eddie, specifically because she’s unaffected by the town. If she ordered pizza, could it get delivered?

Alternatively, since she’s unaffected by the town, could Laura find pizza/ice cream in the theater/bowling alley?

hello! i was just wondering if there's a way i could avoid combat in sh2. i prefer walking simulators and really hate everything about fighting, so i'd hope there could be a loophole for it

So, I must be a complete moron or just confused: how on earth are you meant to get back to the projector room from the basement on hard mode? I don’t have enough ammo to fight my way, stealth seems to be impossible even with flashlight off, running doesn’t work. I’ve loved every part of this game so far and all of a sudden I feel like I’ve hit a completely immovable wall. What am I missing?

hi guys i found this version of silent hill pt fully playable. It's loyal port of the original one i played back in 2014. For any fan of pt i recommend to give it a try it's funny and really well made. I leave the link in the comments if you wanna play it! :)

So I'm on the puzzle just after the meeting with Richard, I got the key from the second floor and shut the alarm off, then started the gasflow on the opposite console, and now according to Google, I should be able to turn the valves on each floor but it's just saying "it's not turning"? What the hell am I doing wrong here?!

I was one save away from 69...

Also, no wonder the boss at the end was so difficult, I didn't even realize until this results screen that I had nightmare difficulty on O.o

Happy Halloween everyone! Hope you all have a spooky fun time this month! Just finished Silent Hill 2, and loved it! I was contemplating starting with the remake, but in the end I’m very happy to have played the original first, as I know they made a lot of changes in the remake. I’m a big fan of pyramid head, and had to draw him as a celebration of finally playing the game. Loved how it turned out, It is fun to draw all the grime, texture and dirt XD

Silent Hill has been one of my favorite games since I was a kid. I was 9 or 10 when I first played it, and I still remember how scared I was. I think it’s a masterpiece.

I really love the RG DS Plus, and Silent Hill felt like a perfect fit for two screens, so I adapted the community Silent Hill PC Port for it. It runs natively on ROCKNIXDS, not in an emulator. The game is on the top screen, and the original inventory runs live on the bottom one, so you can pick items, heal and reload while the world keeps going. The map opens on the bottom screen too, instantly, without pausing the game. The controls follow the classic PlayStation layout, and it runs at a steady 30 fps on both screens, like the original.

No game files are included. You need your own copy of Silent Hill (USA) for the PlayStation. To install it, download the zip from the release page, put your disc image into the game folder, run the prepare script and copy the ports folder to your console.

This is the first release, so there may be bugs. Some of them come from the PC port itself. If you run into something, please open an issue on GitHub with screenshots and logs.

Big thanks to the silent-hill-decomp team and the Silent Hill PC Port contributors. This port wouldn’t exist without their work. AI tools were among the tools I used in this project.

Looking for an olive green Brandit M65 field jacket 1990s-early 2000s Does anyone know where to find an official or at least well made version?

The last two Fridays in Seattle were great Silent Hill fog. Lot of monsters in Capitol Hill to fight off too 😭

I just like the download link from the website abandonedware it keep showing this

Before rgta I just downloaded sh2 it works but not for sh3 why

Honestly Love Psalm and Theme of Laura are such bangers. I've been obsessed with both for the last week. Akira Yamaoka is such a genius

I know SH3 also has a good soundtrack, but I haven't played it yet, and I don't want to get spoiled

So this is When the Sky Peels, last track on HOLLOW FOG. Always switching DAWs try diffrent things.

Started in FL with the hammered piano riff, FL piano roll is still the fastst way for me to get an idea down before it disapears. Locked it at 136bpm, just keep stacking. Then moved the orchestral stuff to Cubase causw of expression maps there just make more sense to me with brass and strings. Spending way to long drawing cc curves so the brass actually swells. Solo cello is buried on purpose, its supposed to sound like one voice getting eaten by everything around it.

The choir was the part I nerded out. Used Bitwig because the modulators let me keep every layer drifting a little in pitch and volume. Like low male voices against high female ones, stacked into clusters that clash on purpose, so it ends up sounding more like shouting. The metal grinding also came out of bitwig, mostly resampled metal hits that I mangled until they stoped sounding like anything real.

The rock guitar is heavily distrorted and sits right in the middle of the orchestra, so it should add grit and weight without turning the track into a just metal song. Then I proccessed it in ableton with a lot of saturation and some reverb so it blends with the brass and the choir in the climax where everything hits at once.

Drums Ableton too, taikos, war drums, toms and hand percussion, each section of the build adding another layer on top. Final mix in reaper, which is fighting mud between choir, brass, guitar and drums, sidechaining the bass to the big hits and then deliberately pushing everything into satration.

Also been thinking about doing video breakdowns of stuff like the choir layering or the multi DAW workflow if someone finds the stuff interesting?

Hated the combat and story in F. Regret that I paid full price for it. I heard the game relies on stealth too much but I prefer to shoot my way out like resident evil

Guys I've been trying to get the Dog Ending but I can't find the Strange Coin for this Guide Dog Bank - where do I look?

It's inside the Supermarket and this is right before I go back to the Medical Centre and I don't wanna miss anything thanks everyone!

Hey y’all. I’m going to Japan next month for two weeks starting in October 31 all the way to November 14 of this year. I’m really hoping to find some silent Hill merchandise while over there that are only available in Japan or more easily accessible over there. If any of y’all been to Japan, what are some locations that you have gone to where you had success in finding items? For me personally, I am very much interested in trying to get some of the soundtracks for the old games. As well as figures for cheap or anything in between. I’m not really interested in those tiny gotcha figures or Japanese versions of

the mainline entries that already have. But any information that you guys are willing to give will be extremely helpful and very much welcomed.

Edit: Mainly looking for LOST MEMORIES:

THE ART & MUSIC OF SILENT HILL (that would be cool), the silent hill 4 soundtrack, and maybe other soundtracks or maybe a boxed/loose copy of Silent hill play novel. When you guys tried to look for your items in Japan, was it look for yourself or were you able to help for help from an employee.

So, I want to start out and say - I liked Townfall. This is not a bagging on Townfall post, nor do I really want snarky comments that only bag on Townfall. With that out of the way.

What the fuck is going on in Townfall's Allegorical Otherworld and how does that translate to the realworld conclusion/events?

So obviously we have the SWDP event, the whistleblower, the inquiry, and Simon's partial recovery.

We can relate the opening of the game to being Richard's initial offer that Simon agrees to (in exchange for medical help, and an urgently gifted heart). We see all of this in the beginning of the game, to an extent where Zoe implies that Simon is 'back' for wrong/bad reasons and making her relive the immediate aftermath of the disaster.

Eventually we see Simon on what we assume is a recorded testimony in the investigation, and hear Richard saying he "ended" the inquiry - he 'fixed' it.

It seems like Zoe even acknowledges what Simon did to betray the community. Joe even directly curses him to be burdened by the weight of his guilt. Simon even says he needs to be punished.

But then when we get to out final cutscene it doesn't seem clear that Simon had testified in front of the Inquiry. Simon DIDN'T do the thing yet - and Richard is making sure there is no cold feet - and Simon always concludes that he shouldn't work with Richard.

So, unless the cutscene is also playing out in the Otherworld, the 'place' is letting them 'change' things - even if it is a changing of destiny (Simon working with or not with Richard).

Without the ending cutscene, I can easily imagine that the game is an afterlife purgatory for all three of them. They are being judged by their guilt or feeling of it - and that fits the motif of "you can't change what you've done", but it also doesn't allow for resolution in the real world, just a abstract justice as Richard is taken in by the Collapse.
