Minerva's Den DLChttp://BillionUploads.com/apd67lqih7o2Extract with winrar.
You can use offline GfWLive account.
Patch, mini image included.
Readme:
-Install BioShock 2 and update it to v1.5
-Copy the content of the 'Minerva's Den DLC' to the install dir.
There are 2 small files you have to overwrite. 1 Movie and 1 audio file. I don't think this will cause problem in the original game but I included them in the backup dir just in case.
-Open 'User.ini' with text editor. Win7 Path: 'c:/Users/"USER NAME"/AppData/Roaming/Bioshock2'
-In the [Default] category find a blank key and add:
Open Minerva_A.bsm
So if you choose for example key M Then the line will be:
M=Open Minerva_A.bsm
-Start the game.
In the main menu keys are not recognized so start a new game or load any save then press The selected key- M in this example.
First map of the dlc will load and you can play.
You can Save any time you want but in order to load them you need some hexing done on your saves.
-You need at least one valid savegame from the original campaign. Win7 Path: c:/Users/"USER NAME"/Documents/Bioshock2/SaveGames
Let's say it's name is: AUTOSAVEKali.bsb
-Open it with a hex editor like:
http://www.chmaas.handshake.de/delphi/f ... /xvi32.htm-Make a selection like it is showed at 1.jpg
Important that the last selected part is:
m a i n S a v e . b s g
(How to select? Hold Shift and use arrow keys)
-Click Edit/Clipboard/Copy
-Close the file.
-Now open the savegame from the dlc which you want to load.
Let's say it's name is: AUTOSAVEDLC4Kali.bsb
-Make a similar selection like what I showed you at the jpg. Again the end of the selection is:
m a i n S a v e . b s g
-Click Edit/Block delete
-Click Edit/Clipboard/Paste
-Save the file.
-Rename the the dlc's file (AUTOSAVEDLC4Kali.bsb) to the filename from the original campaign (AUTOSAVEKali.bsb)
-Now start the game and load the seemingly original campaign file. It'll in fact load your dlc file and you can continue.
You can of course turn any dlc file into any campaign file. Just follow this guideline.
______________
I recommend you to play the first level of the original campaign and make a few savegames along the way. The game can be unstable when there are no savegames made. I know this sounds silly but it seems to be true. You'll need at least one savegame anyway.
Also recommend to leave vsync on. Turning it off can cause unstability.
@prudislav:
I don't think so. That one is not just starting maps but has some "advanced menu controls" to start specific events on the maps.
but you can use an online tricked account and go to dlc section and download it. It's free. and it's working!
