1. German translation
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
To translate all new logs into German, move the contents of this folder into Infinite's main directory.
This translation patch can be applied to both the German and English versions of System Shock 2.
If you are using the German version with BMM, make sure that Infinite is #1 on the active mods order.
Translation work by UNN Atropos and Vegoraptor.

2. Movie subtitles
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
To enable subtitles during movie playback, locate the "shock.cfg" file in the game folder and add:
enable_subtitles
If subtitles are not showing, update your installation with SS2Tool.

3. Larger HUD
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
This tweak makes the HUD of the game larger, as if you were playing in 640x480 resolution.
To install, move the cam_ext.cfg file in the root of System Shock 2, where Shock2.exe is located.

4. Different crosshairs
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
To replace the System Shock Infinite crosshair with a custom one, move the relative "Iface"
folder into the mod's main directory, and overwrite any old files.

5. PSI Pull Addon
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
This addon replaces the psionic power "Neuro-Reflex Dampening", with "Kinetic Redirection".
Kinetic Redirection can be used to pull far away objects, without jumping or shooting them.
Extract this archive in the main System Shock Infinite folder.
The addon applies to any pre-existing savegames.
Due to an engine limitation, the targeting brackets around enemies will have a shorter range.

6. Fix for missing dialogue portraits
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
System Shock Infinite features a new HUD element: characters portraits during dialogues.
They default to 16:9 aspect ratio.
If your aspect ratio is not 16:9, swap the "gamesys.dml" file with the matching one.
Supported aspect ratios are 16:9, 4:3 and 16:10.

7. Fix for crashing doors
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
Rarely, a player would get stuck because an otherwise normal door started crashing the game.
To fix the issue, move the attached files into the mod's folder and destroy the door with guns.
Afterwards, you can uninstall this fix by reinstalling the latest patch.
You can also fix this bug by reloading a save from the previous level.

8. Fix for missing movies
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
Some players are unable to play any of the custom movies in the mod, like the Prologue.
If your System Shock 2 folder is within Program Files, move it out and into the HD's root.
Changing the game's resolution in Video Options can be effective as well.
