BROS, I've tested SH2 again (fuck yuo, ghostdawg) and:
1) The game (3xCD version) won't install on Win7 64x (as before):
Using compatibility mode / setting exe to one-core affinity does shit. Installed in VMware (Win98).
2) The game launches fine on Win7 x64 (1280x1024):
One problem - shadows are borked (z-buffer errors):
3) When I try to choose "options" or "movies" in menus, the game crashes (as before).
But I've googled a way to fix this: it's input-related, so you have to unplug your pad, and the game won't crash. Of course, no gamepad control for you.
"Fixes" ghostdog posted do jack shit, as they:
a) Add higher, but widescreen-only resolutions (1680x1050 is possible, but 1280x960 is not). You can hax-edit your exe to any value you want manually.
b) Set the exe to one-core affinity. You can DIY via Imageconfig or something else.
There are NO real "fixes" in this pack.
4) This "SH2 ENB SMAA" pack kinda works, but introduces its own problems (texture flickering), and the game looks popamole decline. No screenshots, 'cuz I was only able to run it once. After that, it's in constant "blackscreen mode". Removing pack files restored game to normal.
tl;dr
Play PS2 version, it has better fog anyway...

Are you on ATI or NVidia? If Nvidia, then which drivers?
