Silent Hill 3 PC Fix by Steam006 2.0.2

I'm loving your patch @Steam006. I do have one question. When using the new savesystem, do I have to manually adjust ActionLevel and RiddleLevel values in the ini? Does using the new save system mean selecting the Action Level and Riddle Level normally on the main screen does nothing anymore?

If you leave them at the default value in the ini (zero for ActionLevel and 4 for RiddleLevel) your menu choices will be used.

I downloaded the new version of the file (I was using an old one from around November) and it deleted my save. Copying savedata from a backup didn't restore it. Any way to fix?

Did you have the new save system enabled in the ini on the old version?

I checked both the .ini files in the install directory and I didn't see any new save system settings. So I'm going to assume I did not have it enabled.

Hi!

I followed the installation instructions, however when I try to start the game via DLLInjector, it says "Failed to inject dll, fatal error--> 2.0"
Though, interestingly, when I was trying to replicate this to get the error word-for-word, it almost worked before giving me "No disc inserted."
 

Would I have to mount the iso/have the disc inserted for it to work?
I thought I may have messed up the Silent_Hill_3_PC_Fix.ini settings while I was trying to configure it, but overwrote it with the unedited version and it resulted in the same error. 

Edit: I figured it out 🙂 Happy to report that it works just fine!

I'm glad you got it working. The error you got is a timeout error, sometimes slower PCs or some antivirus software can cause it to appear. I will tweak it for the next update.

Hi, I got the new version from Feb 13 2021, but the picture and 4:3 preservation don't seem to be working, except for FMVs. Do you know what might be going on here? (I'm not sure exactly what 4:3 elements you preserved.)
