This patch downgrades the latest Overdose v84.4 to Overdose v75.3 (NA). Downgrade to Overdose v75.3 may be required to test some old mods. I decided to create this patch because nowadays it is very difficult to find this Overdose version. Please make sure you understand what you are doing before applying this downgrade patch.
Downgrade to Overdose v75.3 (NA)
This version may be required for old mods.
1. Remove the following packages from Overdose v84.4
- Data/MapsPatch.pak
- Data/SoundsPatch.pak
- Data/TexturesPatch.pak
2. Extract the downgrade patch v75.3 archive to your game directory and replace all the files, for example: C:\Program Files\DreamCatcher\Painkiller Overdose\
3. This step is for Russian Overdose versions only. Skip this step if you have the English version of the game.
Go to .\Miscellaneous\Overdose75rus\ in the archive and copy the Data\ directory to your game directory C:\Program Files\DreamCatcher\Painkiller Overdose\ and replace the Language.pak and LZcripts.pak.
4. You may also need to clean the previous configuration files and saves in:
C:\Users\User\AppData\Local\Painkiller Overdose\
Overdose.exe and OverdoseEditor.exe for v75.3 were taken from Painkiller Triple Dose edition.
OverdoseEngine.dll was modified to work with OpenSpy instead of GameSpy and is already included in this downgrade patch.
Some original Overdose 75 files from the original English version of the game including OverdoseEngine.dll were put to the .\Miscellaneous\Overdose75en\ folder as a backup.
