This is a patch of Blood Omen 2 for PC based on the Soul Reaver 2 fix, basically carrying most of the fixes:
- native MSAA;
- XInput controller support;
- better Motion Blur;
- a dynamic video player to cut the black bars at the top and bottom of the screen on certain movies;
- a wide screen fix;
- extra in-game options to fiddle around with VSync, framerate, and windowed mode.
It also introduces a few specific options for the upcoming v1.3 of Conceptual Edition, a mod aimed at restoring cut content and effects.

    For the longest time my steam base game would freeze at the main menu and I didn’t want to do all that other file zipping stuff. After years of wanting to finally replay this I stumbled into this fix in the community notes and THANK YOU!!!! No words will ever portray the gratitude I have for the hard work all this went into for LOK community. Truly a gift from the Gods. Thank you guys

    Now Defiance. I'm so stoked for every game to be easily playable in their best forms!
  • Awesome, just played SR2 with your patch it’s been great. Had BO2 patched a while back but yours seems more in-depth especially with that widescreen fix. Appreciate your work. These games are true gems
  • @Needled8812
    I thought of this game again after refunding it on Steam because of unplayable performance. This patch really made my day. Thank you.
  • @ILHASSS
    It's a good game with great atmosphere and music. Thank you.
  • Thank you so much for fixing Blood Omen 2. You have no idea how badly I wanted to play this game but couldn't as it would always freeze my computer and had to restart. Now I can finally play without any worries for crashing or freezing.
  • @RetroJackal
    Oh wow, this is totally unexpected. Thank you for patching this game, Gemini.
  • Is it possible to restore the mist ability’s effect from the console versions? It was more convincing there.
  • @MateusRG
    Just so you know... Soul Reaver 2 patch works flawlessly with all graphics options enabled. However, the Blood Omen 2 patch apparently has a problem with the graphics options: When I enable Motion Blur and click apply, I instantly get an APPCRASH error. All other options work fine in Blood Omen 2. I am using a Laptop with Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit and Intel HD Graphics 4000. Thanks for these fixes! =)

    Miss your work on the RE games will the updates to RE2 be finished or not worth it?
  • @sprintbass
    I desperately want this game...I played it when it came out but never beat it....I have windows 10.. so I'm here to learn about the fix and if it's not too hard I'll try and find it for PC.. D
  • @Grumblik
    I am curious if there is a way to fix the aspect ratio? Kain looks tall and lanky compared to the original version I played.
  • @NewDayHorror
    Hello Gemini, is there any way to insert subtitles in this game?
  • @Ruloa-sj2um
    hello, thanks for the work and effort!!! will it be compatible with other language versions, such as Spanish?
  • @user-or1vl2ki2p
    But will there ever be a Rebirth of the game Resident Evil Survivor for PC, since on new systems it even starts with emulation through programs like Demon Tools, but there is a strong shift of the sight relative to the crosshair mark somewhere to the side? And then your rebirths were simply amazing.
  • @cheshirecat932
    Somehow I am unable to activate Anti-Aliasing in the game, am I doing something wrong?
  • @iriyap

  • @steliosbond1
