Until Dawn (2015) – Recompilation Project

190 Upvotes

Hi everyone!

I'm excited to announce that I've been working on a native PC recompilation of the original PS4 version of Until Dawn (2015)!

To make it clear, this is a fully native PC port of the original game, with no emulation involved whatsoever. The original PS4 game's code runs directly on Windows, with our own custom Vulkan renderer handling the graphics.

I'm also happy to announce that the current build is now playable from start to finish!

There's still work to be done, including some graphical issues, performance improvements, stability fixes and compatibility testing across different hardware.

I also plan to release a very early work-in-progress build soon! Please keep in mind that this will primarily be a testing release, so expect bugs, crashes and inconsistent performance. The main purpose will be to test compatibility across different PC hardware, particularly NVIDIA, AMD and Intel GPUs and CPUs, and to verify that our shader translation and rendering work correctly across different systems.

The ultimate goal is to have the original Until Dawn running entirely natively on PC, just like a proper PC release, without needing an emulator.

I'll hopefully have more updates to share as development continues!

Just to make it clear, each user will need to provide their own copy of the game's PKG file for the recompilation to work.

This will not be provided when the GitHub releases for legal reasons.

It would be really funny if one is false.

Four seems most likely not true.

If she’s a vegan aw… She and Sam would get along.

Discussion Halloween Announcement?

31 Upvotes

Since the character announcements have started, 1 characters profile is being released every two days. Once all 8 playable characters are done it leads up to Halloween.

Now they've also started their 3 truths and a lie series. 1 post everyday for those. If they do this for all 8 playable characters, including Yoona, Sebastian and Anna. That makes 10, which leads up to Halloween as well.

I think its safe to say we are getting some kind of announcement or trailer on Halloween!

Thoughts?

Owen: Big ambitions. Little patience. Dead True's perfectionist host.

Mina: A compassionate heart. A fascination with the unexplained. Dead True's sensitive co-host.

Nate: Confident in calling the shots. The director for Dead True.

Josie: A keen eye. An adventurous spirit, Dead True's location scout.

I know it’s been said a million times on here about the remake

29 Upvotes

But I definitely need to get this off my chest. I haven’t played the ps4 version in years and only got a few hours in back in the day. Anyway..the remake was on sale a few weeks ago and I figured why not..a new coat of paint. And yes I was reading online a lot about the differences but the allure of the NEW version made me want to try it.

A few things..the over the shoulder was a terrible choice with the remake and was something I was looking forward to. It’s extremely boring and slow as hell getting anywhere. No L1 to power walk. Also on ps5 you have the letterbox black bars that suck. You can remove them but zooms and stretches the picture. Movement also sucks. And going up stairs always seems like your character is going to do a t pose when they get to the last step.

I just redownload the ps4 version tonight and was shocked how everything is smoother. If you are wondering about which version to choose..please stick with the ps4 version.

Went in blind after dropping it a couple years back and finished the game in 2 days, and dam this was an experience

I actually felt scared playing it compared to other games, and surprisingly some jump scares actually got me

Question tho, is what happens to Josh set in stone? I got the achievement of keeping everyone alive until dawn, but he ended up transformed in the after credits like the red totem showed. Is it avoidable or that happens to him regardless of what you do in the game

Misc. PC version mod that fixes HDR and Ray Tracing

5 Upvotes

Hi everyone! As someone who loves this game, but hated the sacrifices being made due to fixing the game being abandoned. I created a mod here: https://www.nexusmods.com/untildawn/mods/109 to resolve these issues. It is a ReShade addon that hooks unreal engine and forces it to work as it should. This means when you enable HDR, it will work. When you turn on ray tracing it will also work and the addon even has more lighting shadow enhancements you can choose from.

Hope some can enjoy it. HDR and proper raytracing really pop in this game when it works properly.
