The mighty RE4 HD Project finally has a date! Version 1.0 will release on February 2nd, 2022. Outside of all the amazing custom texture work and more, HD movies (SW) have recently been added as well as teaming up with nipkow’s tweaks thus implementing a ton of QOL features for the final release (ultra wide support, DOF, etc.).

To say this project was a huge undertaking is an understatement, seven years of work has now been put into this project. If you can, please consider donating at their website.

Less than a month until this project releases and I can hardly wait. The hype for this actually feels like a new title, be sure to check it out upon release and donate if you can. I haven't seen a passion project like this since the RE 1.5 days.

Felt like a breath of fresh air for me, almost like a first time. Playing at 21:9 with a decent FOV and the amazing texture work was a thing of beauty. Also played it on KBM for the first time and with some of the included tweaks it felt fantastic. Even found a never before used micro side step, mouse only.

I've been relying on tweaks patch more for new game runs and ı eventually figured out that through the special menu, it's possible to max the inventory size right from start through maxing out the gold and buying attache case xl. This helped quite a lot since it allowed to store much more items from the beginning. This trick can only be done before meeting with merchant in chapter 1-2 though since otherwise the largest inventory upgrade wont be available until chapter 3-3.

I also checked separate ways' new game feature through this but attache case xl isnt available right from start. Personally ı think separate ways benefits more from new game+ than new game since the weapons cant be upgraded and unlocking chicago typewriter helps as well. I dont finding myself going back to new game for ada compared to leon's story.

Playing on pc surely helps due to benefits like this. I cant find myself going back to other ports since the game feels unplayable due to controls. The experience felt like torture on pcsx2.
The second you do a NG+ you keep the case size though, so it's really negligible to me. The game is so old and I have hundreds of play throughs complete across so many platforms, that surely the case is always maxed when I start playing on a NG+ file. I'm happy you found a way to enjoy it your way, I'm not saying not to, I just never found this to be a big deal in any way.

I remember I have another copy of the 2007 port somewhere, as well as two copies of RE6 and two copies of Revelations.
