I have found the file d3d8.log in my main folder C:\Program Files (x86)\Konami\Silent Hill 2 - Directors Cut. What do you mean with update? How can I update this file? A little hint woud be very helpful, thanks in advance! Thomas

Polymega means upload. please upload your d3d8.log here.

OK, thank you, there it is;=)

[Thomas20232030]

d3d8.log

[Polymega]

There is an error in the log file at the bottom:

15600 12:37:12.612 GetFMVRes Error: failed to open file: 'data\movie\hakaba.bik'

Can you navigate to C:\Program Files (x86)\Konami\Silent Hill 2 - Directors Cut\data\movie\ and take a snapshot of the contents inside this folder?

[Thomas20232030]

[Thomas20232030]

As you can see in the screenshot there is no subdirectory "movie" in the directory "data". Do you think this causes the error?

Thomas

[Polymega]

Most likely. I'd recommend starting over from the beginning. When installing the vanilla game, be sure to follow all the steps outlined on our website: https://enhanced.townofsilenthill.com/SH2/install.htm#installGame

In particular:

• When selecting a path to install the game, it is recommended to choose a local user directory.
  • I'd recommend not installing the game to Program Files (x86). Instead, install it to a local user directory such as My Games or My Documents
• Near the start of installation, when prompted, save the movie files to your hard disk.
• At the end of installation, select "NO" when Silent Hill 2 PC asks if you want to install any necessary DirectX 8.1 drivers.

[Thomas20232030]

Do you know if it is possible to save my savegames with my resuts when I do a completely new installation?

[Polymega]

Yes, go to data\save\ and make a backup of the Folder 01 folder found here.

Then, once you reinstall everything, move your backed up Folder 01 folder into the data\save\ directory.

[Thomas20232030]

Thank you very much, everything now runs perfect;=)
