How to Play TimeSplitters 2 (Full Game, not just the demo.)

Homefront: Retribution is really quite bad, but if you use the following method you may play an actually fun game, TimeSplitters 2: Somewhat Remastered, with just a few simple steps.

Credit goes to these guys.

Step 1: Save file

Obtain a 100% Completion file here[savegame.pro], unless you're so daft you actually want to play through Homefront: The Revolution.

Place this file in: C:/Users/USERNAME/Saved Games/homefront2
(Yes, replace everything. You need to boot up the game at least once so this location appears.)

Step 2: Reach the TimeSplitters 2 arcade machine

Load the save file "Unlikely Allies."

Bring up your map with M, then navigate with your mouse cursor and press Enter to place a marker, as this guy does.

---

Suffer through Homefront's wonky movement controls until you reach your marker location.

Follow the video's path through the building's interior and you will locate a TimeSplitters 2 arcade machine. (It's at the very top level.)

Press E in front of it and you'll enter the TimeSplitters 2 main menu.

Step 3: It's time to split!

By default, the game allows you to play two demo levels; this is what happens if you select the only option not labelled 'Exit'.

If you want to play the full TimeSplitters 2 game, plug in a controller, select the first option, load into the level and input one of the following codes:

Story Mode
UP+LT ... UP+LT ... DOWN ... RIGHT+LT ... LEFT+RT ... B+RT ... Y+LT ... Y+LT ... X+RT ... A+LT

Arcade
LEFT+LT+RT ... DOWN+LT+RT ... LEFT+LT+RT ... B+LT+RT ... LEFT+RT ... LEFT+LT+RT ... DOWN+LT+RT ... Y+LT+RT ... X+RT ... A+LT

Challenge Mode
B+RT ... LEFT+LT+RT ... B+LT+RT ... DOWN+LT+RT ... RIGHT+LT ... UP+LT ... Y+LT ... A+LT+RT ... X+RT ... A+LT

If you did this correctly, you will unlock each of these options on the TimeSplitters 2 main menu. You have to return to this menu to play them, obviously. (Thanks to Scoot for the correction.) Keyboard and controller button equivalents may be found here.[imgur.com]


Enjoy your unofficial TimeSplitters 2 PC port!

TS2 Redux is a fan-made project which aims to fix and enhance the port of TimeSplitters 2 (TS2) contained in the 2016 game Homefront: The Revolution as a hidden away as an unlockable easter-egg: https://github.com/HFTSRedux/TS2Redux

Among other things, TS2 Redux address some crashes, like the NeoTokyo one, plus creates a new shortcut you can use to start the game straight in TS2.

@Scoot Just got it now for £3 (about $4). And it wasn't even my money... Paypal stuck £5 in my account a few days ago because I'd not used the account in years lol.

having no mid-level checkpoints or way to restart levels without quitting out entirely is not ideal. plus you can't unlock anything since its all unlocked from the start.

i think its better to add a "crash chart" to the guide, since a lot of things cause crashing...

[``~Scre@m~``]

it also crashes in "wild west" level when you pick up time crystal and time splitters start to teleport in..

@FunkynutZ
Just get a cheap code off a third party key site, I got my Homefront copy for like $5 lol

Keep supersampling set to x1. Otherwise Timesplitters will be unplayable.

[MalkHead]

if the codes not are registering, load up any Timesplitters 2 level, there input combinations by holding down a trigger then pressing a button.

The game crashes when trying to teleport into a UFO in the 2280 level

Is it the D pad or left stick for inputs ?
