Was there a reason you kept walking past the map without picking it up?

Because we didn't see it. What other reason would there be?

The intention was to point it out (it's on the wall by the green staircase by the boutique) without coming across as "you idiots!". This hack makes it much harder to spot than normal, because of the much better resolution on the other wall art - this keeps the "this is an item that can be picked up" difference from standing out so much.

I beat this game something like 4 times before I accidentally found that file in the darkroom.

Not 100% sure, but I think you missed some ammo in the Parking Garage office. Not a big deal, because you'll be going back through there anyway.

If you hide in the kitchen she takes Nemmy out by throwing that lamp at a gas-leak, without using a single bullet. You get the part/drop and everything.

There is no sane indication this is the right thing to do.



Carlos chews her out for doing it, too.

The restaurant and newspaper office are linked - the first one you go to has Nemesis, the second one has the emerald. If you go to the Newspaper office first, you can channel Leon and jump out the second-story window to escape - this is the only way to get to that locked from the other side door. The Emerald will be in the restaurant basement, which is otherwise empty.

You could have got 2 more Freeze Rounds if you'd applied the C powders to a stack of Grenade Rounds. Whether or not it is worth trading 12 Grenade Rounds for 2 Freeze is an open question.

You can still open both doors if you increase the electricity output. You have to use the manual mode switch again, and the increment values change.

The clock tower hint would have been much better if it hadn't accompanied a picture. Just having something like "Put your hands together to pray to the God Of Time" would have been just that little bet less blatant and been better for it.


As an aside, the bit in The Drawing Of The Three you reference at the end of the video was one of the many examples of Stephen King going on and on about something he knows nothing about. The way the rifle works in this is close to reality, except for Carlos not shouldering it, and the insane ammo capacity (which I suspect was Capcom not wanting to deal with a bunch of Carlos-only pickups).

This is one of my favorite parts of the game, mostly for the way Carlos just casually pushes aside the "Incredible strength" bell.


Most modern handgun designs - like the Glock Jill uses in the remake, for example, are largely plastic.

Never saw that cute animation with the bell before, because I never tried to push it with Jill.




The scene with Carlos and the missile always threw me off a bit. Even if you hadn't found the document explaining that it was a government strike to contain the outbreak, why would Jill assume that Umbrella was launching the missile?



Without the upscale mod, I never noticed the obvious Playboy on the desk in the break room there, or the cutout from said magazine on the wall.

This episode shows just how broken the ammo crafting system can be. You could conceivably have that many magnum rounds (and the Magnum) at the STARS office if the RNG falls just right.

I think those naked zombies are G zombies. Revived corpses that can't evolve since they had no living tissue. They appeared in a couple games at the very end, where they suddenly show up in numbers. They are not related to Pale Heads.

Naked zombies show up at the end of all 3 of the OG Resident Evil games. The strong implication is that, while other zombies were just infected and reanimated scientists or townsfolk, these are test subjects. This explains why they're swarming out of the disposal pools here.

I've been thinking about how to make this work, and while you could do it, you'd be so ammo-starved until then that it'd probably just make the game a lot harder. Might not even be possible to beat the first Nemesis fight unless you're some sort of knife savant.

There's enough ammunition to get through the pre-RPD part of the game without using any powder if you're very careful and know exactly which zombies to fight and which ones to avoid. It does make the early game a tiny bit harder, but subsequent Nemesis fights are so much easier (due to plentiful power ammo) that you wind up with more ammo for your basic weapons then you would have had otherwise. It is easier than getting the RE2 costume unlock, for example.


You only get the boutique key if you have unlocked at least one costume, and costume unlocks are based on your ranking. With such a low rank, you didn't unlock one.
