Hello Soldiers,
A new update for System Shock 2 is available now for Windows and MacOS that brings the game up to version 2.48.
The update fixes a few in-game issues as well as restoring a previously unheard e-mail from SHODAN. It's in Ops. Can you find it?
Steam configs have been updated on Windows so now that when verifying the Steam Cache, files essential to mod configuration should no longer be downloaded again if changes are found. They will be redownloaded if they are missing.
The MacOS version of the game has been completely redone. Gone is WineSkin 2.8.2 and Wine 2.12, and in its place is WineSkin 2.9.0.2 and Wine 4.11. This should allow the game to run much better on more modern Mac computers. I've tested this extensively on my MacBook 15-inch, 2018 model with Mojave 10.14.5 installed as found no issues.
Because of this MacOS update, the base system requirements for this game have to be changed as I can no longer support the old MacOS operating systems reliably. Mojave 10.14 is now the base OS requirement for this game.
Enjoy the update,
Daniel G,
Nightdive Studios.
