  • Yes it's from a beta version. This file was deleted along with Trevor's Letters along for the final build of the game. Kenneth's Diary is a rumoured other file that was originally included and then deleted, i just wondered if it had ever been found and translated.

    • Thank you so much for the info, I didn't know about this file. Was it ever found and translated?

      • @ Red Queen: there are 2 different Trevor's Letters.
        One was printed in the "True Story Behind Bio Hazard" book, and the other was used in the BH game.
        There are a lot of small differences between the 2 texts, but usually people go with the text from the book. The biggest difference between the 2 texts is that the "Invitation" letter is only in the videogame, not in the book.

        While the "Invitation" text from the beta was translated, to my knowledge nobody bothered translating the other TL texts from the beta, because the differences were really not that important.

        • Ill probably be setting things up for a broadcast in 7 hours or so. A proper one this time, so Ill be watching the chat. It'll most likely be the PC version, and I'll be trying for the no save win again to get the PC exclusive weapons. Since we have a couple of folks in the UK and abroad, it might be easier on them this time, now that I've royally fucked up my USA sleeping schedule

            • Thanks TheBatMan and imacwesker for the explanations.

              Ah, I'll probably won't see Dot's playthrough again... I hate these time differences!

                The "invitation" and Trevor's Letters translated can be found here:



                I recommend reading that if you have not. They worked hard on that project, and I must say that it was that which led me to register at THIA.

                    • John is streaming. Starting in just a moment. Come on in if you're gonna watch.



                      Edit: And he's started.

                          • It was fun to watch, and really quick! I'll play it sometime this holidays... Good night to everyone!

                            • Ahaha. I'll play some more today, but I'm pretty much done with the PC version. The things I've noticed:
                              Increased framerate
                              Increased resolution (640x480, polygons only, BG is still 320)
                              Plant 42 has more 2D arms on it, and its texture colors are different
                              Water has actual transparency and a lighter color
                              The painting "give me the peace of death" checking is different (it now just says a picture of people mourning the dead)
                              When you rescue Rebecca quickly on the 1F (shes in the room still) from the Hunter, the WRONG music plays (actiony OH SHIT music). Thought this was odd.
                              An alternate costume for each character is available (in addition to the standard alt costume), though you still can't go back to your normal clothes once you change.
                              Alternate ending screens are shown for both characters
                              Beating the game without saving = MINIME for Chris and a UZI for Jill. Both weapons are the same (sound effects, power, fire rate) except for the physical model
                              THIS VERSION HAS AUTO AIM! But no "adjust aim" from what I can tell.
                              The pool drain FMV seems like it might be re-rendered, but I'll have to look into this to be sure.
                              The snakes have a dark black texture rather than red now
                              The fountain plant turns a deep pink color when dead rather than red
                              Likewise, the water tank for it also turns different colors (pinkish to red)
                              When Yawn busts through the floor, an explosion sprite is done (lol)

                              I'm quite pleased with the PC version though. After getting it to work using Mark's nice utility (the .exe didn't work in Windows 7, but running the SILENCE.wav works just as good), its probably my favorite version.\

                              Also seems like I probably set some new records (at least for the Speed Demo Archive site). 100% completion (best ending) for both characters. I'll have to make a quick video for em and submit ;) I can probably do even better now that I have the alt weapons.

                                Ahh, I've seen these files! Thank you for clearing things up, I was very upset I thought it was something I haven't seen or been aware of its existence. Thank you.


                                Damn, couldn't watch Dot's playthrough again...
