Extra MOD "Mr.X can run!"

Don't install this Extra MOD when you play the MOD for the first time. The game balance will be broken and some cutscenes won't work well.

Mediafire.com

Installation:

Please note that I assume no responsibility if a problem occurs.

1. Full install BIOHAZARD2 from DVD-ROM.

2. Download "komizo_bio2_202.zip" and unpack.

3. Copy over "BIOHAZARD 2 PC" folder in "komizo_bio2_202.zip" to your installation folder. ("...\CAPCOM\BIOHAZARD 2 PC")

4. Run "toos_ver2_0_0.exe" or "toos(HARD)_ver2_0_0.exe" in your installation folder.

5. Load savedata "The Origin of Species" and enjoy playing!

6. If you need an English translation, plesese install "Resident Evil 2 Classic REbirth" patch of "The Apple of Eden", and start the game from "[Resident Evil 2 Overhaul Mod] - The Origin of Species".

Cautions:

- You need to re-install if you want to play the original game again.

- Please confirm the game is started with "toos_ver2_0_0.exe", or many errors will occur.

- If you start the game without the savedata, the first door won't open.

- Don't save/load when you're playing as Sherry with cheats, or Claire's menu screen will be broken.
