![]() ![]() I like having this set to about 1/5 max, but feel free to change this as needed. Unless you have a really slow computer, set the Resolution to 800 x 600 x 16. Faster computers should use 1024 x 768 x 16. Again, click "back" to continue making changes. Choose your Hardware Driver if you have not done so already, then click "back". This is a hard one to set because it varies computer to computer. This is a game that relies on the scare factor, so try to set it where dark feels dark, and don't be a wimp-out and set this too high. You'll have to know a bit about your sound card to get the most out of SS2's audio settings. Use reversed speaker only if when you click on "Speaker Test" the directions come out wrong. If you know you have a sound card, then go ahead and click on Hardware Acceleration as well. ![]() Not only will this improve the sound, but it'll take some of the burden off your processor as well. Next, set the Audio Channels to the max your sound card supports. (Most support at least 8, but newer, nicer ones support 16+) And finally, turn on EAX if your sound card supports it. Pretty self explanatory, but I feel they've been labeled wrong. Instead of "Easy, Normal, Hard, Impossible", think "Practice, Easy, Normal, Hard". Welcome to the System Shock world! This is the chapter where you learn some of the SS2 story and proceed to creating your character. (Read the manual to get a more in depth background story) After you finish watching the intro movie, you'll find yourself on a tramway. Take a moment to get used to the basic movement controls, since nothing is going to be attacking you for a while, you have nothing to worry about. After you've gotten used to the controls, enter the right 'grav shaft' (looks a lot like a blue phone booth with bubbles floating up or down) to be transported to ground level. Once you reach the surface, take a good look around, because this is the ONLY time in the game you are going to be 1) On Earth and 2) Outdoors. There's not much to look at, but you can set up an Easter Egg for later. From the Grav Shaft, follow the street to the right until it comes to an end. When you turn around, there will be a pillar on the right and on the left. Walk up to the pillar on the left and jump up (Hold down the jump button, just pressing it won't get you on it) and follow it a short distance up, till you reach a level area. ![]()
