Probably there's a 1 key to switch between old and remaster versions and that still keeps the dolar sign?

In the original game when you killed someone, you had to go next to the body, crouch and check his pockets for money and stuff. They probably made it so now you pick up stuff from enemies automatically, but they didnt have to make it look like mario

Oh i'm really aware of that. I've finished the original, even tho i was really lost due to lack of english knowledge and the way they speak
Things have changed now, and now there seems to be bigger and better readable subs at the bottom right, like "I ain't got a dollar"

They removed the dollar sign feature. Also it looks better from what we've seen in the recent trailer.
However weapon models are probably "cut" (you won't be seeing the whole ooriginal models).

| Quote: | | Released in unfinished state. Mouse movement is incredibly shoppy, stutters everywhere, no mod support to name a few. Wait for a couple patches before you buy |
| Quote: | It is a downgrade in every aspect.
Just get the original version with the latest fan patch.
One of the laziest remastered I've seen. |
| Quote: | | Runs terribly, frame rate is all over the place along with weird lighting glitches and very long load times. Wait a month or 2. |
| Quote: | | Rushed, janky mess of a remaster. Somehow runs worse than the original that came out in the 90's without looking much better!? Textures look to have been up-scaled with AI and still look bad. Every light source has some enormous bloom effect that looks cheap and the shadows are pretty much non-existent despite having SSAO?. The worst offender is the FOV that is zoomed in so far that you can't see the gun models. Cut-scenes are also zoomed in and the models just kinda 'teleport' into place a second after the scene starts. I'm not sure who decided this was good enough to release!? Don't waste your money. |

what were they even doing here ? Other than "rebalancing" the combat for controlers/consoles ? The og game is already on steam and works with no issues. Slap a 9 kilo mod file in the folder and you have all the modern qol stuff. These guys did actual development work to make everything worse. All the things that people report is bad or broken required intentional work. For things that were running correctly since 1999. Did they work for 3 years to gimp the game on purpose ? The end result for this team is that they took a flawlessly running game and then worked 3 years to break every aspect of it

Well, they put it in Unity so now it requires a modern PC instead of a toaster

So that they can not fix a known Unity bug which causes the game not to load if you have any other regional settings than USA/UK of course
Deer god, this is absolute amateur hour.

Most likely again something like differences for parsing comma separator between regions - not the first time I run into this with Unity projects. Essentially it requires a very specific culture settings for the main thread.
As a workaround you can go to Windows settings, find Regional Settings. Change Regional Format to "English (United Kingdom)" or "English (United States)", alternatively you can try key combination: Win+R and type in:
intl.cpl
and change the regional settings in there
Do note, it will affect how the date is formatted in windows, how numbers are displayed etc."

And yes, this works. This is the end result of a 2+ year delay

Yes Quake 2 according to this
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kingpin:_Life_of_Crime
Just upscaled textures would be amazing. This new bullshit was ported to unity from what I hear and looks like they just checked bloom & broken shadows on and left it at that without any tweaking so it looks awful.
Maybe a way to use the remaster's textures in the old engine?

ugh. these textures are rough. the original must have a lot of 128x128 textures if his claim is true that these are upscaled x4, because they are still quite low-res (512x512).
