AVP 2 help

[Shadow394]

I tried downloading AVP 2 following two different guides on you tube both produced the same result i have graphical errors in the main menu and when i launch the first predator mission it crashes and when I launched the Alien mission the cut scene plays with all the characters invisible does anyone know how to fix.

This isn't the 2002's Aliens vs. Predator 2 (AvP 2) + its Primal Hunt expansion game's sections because there is none official upon Steam. And, quite probably, that's also tied with the factor that my original CD-DVD's for it stopped working upon the now older Windows 7 OS or similar.

Although you can try to reach this AvP 2's Steam Community and get try to get it working upon today's OS through there.

Better consult with AvP2 page on pcgamingwiki. With AvP2 Custom Launcher 1.30 and dgvoodoo 2 game runs at proper 16:9 aspect ratio and without performance issues. I also used DI-wrapper to fix mouse aiming.

Better not consult with PC gaming wiki + that AVP2 custom launcher, as it's broken, outdated, and no longer supported... What everyone uses is the "MSP" version 2.4 for Aliens vs. Predator 2 and "PH MSP 1.1" for the expansion pack.

The official AvP2 community with over 5,000+ members is right here.

MSP have stretched weapon models in first person view and FPS always drops below 60.

Can't have more than 60 fps in avp2 otherwise animations break
models are not stretched (depends what your res is)

Take this up with the tech-support guys at the discord if you have major problems.

Next msp will fix the fps limit anyway so hang in there! :-)

FPS constantly fluctuating between 45 and 50, it's impossible to play normaly. Weapon models are distorted, they look like 4:3 streteched to 16:9, other 3D elements appeared to be fine, but I discarded MSP after the first launch.
With Custom Launcher and dgvoodoo 2 I have none of this problems: constant 60 FPS
with MSAA and every 3D element have correct original proportions.

And what do you mean by "no longer supported"? The latest MSP release for AvP2 is quite old, even two years older, than Custom Launcher. If the OP is not interested in Primal Hunt and multiplayer, I think he should go with what I have suggested.
