Resident Evil HD Remaster was recently launched on Steam but users complain of crashes, freezing, errors, and performance issues. Here are the best fixes.

Despite some signs of its age, Resident Evil is still as scary as ever with the remake's recent release on Nintendo Switch.
DSOGaming writes: "These past few weeks have been really interesting as we've seen some truly amazing AI-enhanced texture packs for older games. Final Fantasy 7, Final Fantasy 8, Final Fantasy 9, Half-Life, Max Payne, Morrowind and Doom are just a few of the games that got new high-quality textures that were produced via AI Neural Networks and today, modder ‘Shiryu’ released a new AI-enhanced Texture Pack for Resident Evil HD Remaster."
I'm not really convinced by this AI Neural Networks thing using this as an example. I know you can't ask for much when it comes to pre-rendered stuff, but you can barely see a difference with most of these. At its worst, there's an imperceptible difference. At its best, you can see it cleared up some jaggies and looks a liiiittle less blurry.
I will download it of course, but based on the screenshots, this doesn't improve things a whole lot.
It does make a difference. Mods in general are just awesome. They've helped make so many of my games look better. The HD reworked texture mods and other mods for The Witcher 3, for example, made it look way better.
This may be small improvements now but it could be huge for gaming's future. AI with a ryzen based chip programmed to use the neural network to determine to the metal coding might allow programmers to focus on high level coding. That means games get done really fast and the budget goes into things like story and production. Once you have an ai that understands its given hardware it can decide how to run the code to maximize frames and resolution. AI will revolutionize gaming.
This is why I think I've had enough of RE 1 for a lifetime.
I had to use the ini to get it to run in fullscreen and change graphics settings. In-game, any change to those settings would result in a crash. Now, this is simple stuff and you get used to it in the PC landscape, but it's still a hassle.
Moral of the story? Play it on the PS1.
I got the PC version and I'm going to go get the ps4 version also. The PC version is a mess and the benefits do NOT outweigh the annoyances.
First of all the controls are horrific on keyboard and mouse but at least you can customize those, switch to your controller of choice and you find out you can only use the presets that only work with a 360 controller. I plugged my ps4 controller in only to find out it works but some of the buttons are backwards. X and o are reversed as well as the triggers. I have to use r1 and l1 to aim and shoot instead of my triggers. I wish windows would official support the ps4 controller i hate the feel of the 360 controller.
I played in 1080p which is great but the only thing that looks good in this game is the character models. There is zero benefit to playing in 60 fps. The game feels no different. Which is also why I'm getting the ps4 version so I can enjoy it better. The PC version has 5 second frame rate problems something fierce at random times then clears up.
The 2d backdrops are ugly as sin. They look more like paintings then actual rooms.
Never had a crash though.
Go for comfort with this game there is hardly a meaningful graphical benifit playing the PC version. And it comes with a hefty comfort loss.
