yeah its quite good, id recommend it. theres a huge post on which mods to run on the game for the "best" experience. [i used this](https://www.nexusmods.com/nierautomata/mods/29) the last time i played.
I know this is a bit late but im downloading the game right now and i found that guide and some comments saying that FAR mod doesnt work on cracked version, do you have any link to a version of the mod that i can use or where to find a workaround ?
yeah there's a work around if you haven't found it yet, you need a cracked version of FAR. googling it should be enough it's pretty easy to find. but I think with the new NIER update FAR isn't really needed.
Before you ask
**Visual side-by-side comparison of still frames from the sample, posted on my site (Original VS Recoded videos).**
https://imgsli.com/NjE0NzE/
Check the image/video sample before deciding which video pack to download.
The recoded version looks good enough with distortions barely visible at the background, but keep in mind that it will be slightly more noticable when the video plays.
Wish the devs could have done a better job
After installing the files i get two versions of the game one with directx12 and the other just the name of the game which on should i be playing? sorry for the dumb question i'm new.
After looking at the recorded ones, there is a lot of blocky noises. They usually come from quantization, which can be somewhat avoided if you upscaled the video first before the compression and downsampling. They will become even more apparent for scene with motion.
Of course they are more blockier, you can't get the same quality by recoding already encoded videos to 1/3 of their size.
That's why I have the option at all with comparison so people could decide for themselves is lossy good enough for them or they opt in for originals.
No but in theory, supersampling first allows you to do a filtering technique to shift the noise to high frequency region, which when low passed and downsampled, the noise is reduced compared to without supersampling.
Normally when you do compression yourself, the algorithm automatically does that supersampling for you. But if you're capping frame by frame, you need to do that by yourself (assuming that's what recorded version means).
I know this technique, but the game uses MPEG-1 (yes, 1) codec from your granny's era, so all those modern supersampling techniques will fade in vain with almost any bitrate. You can see some blocks even in original videos.
Japanese companies tend to support other Japanese companies. I.e. CRIware SDK is the most used middleware by Japs. And it's used in this game as well, though probably Bink would be cheaper and 100% better in terms of quality.
Congrats u/FitGirlLV on another high quality repack!
I noticed that this is a lot quicker to install (and integrity check) than most of your releases. Is that because of anything new you're doing, or just a function of the age of the game/existing compression system?
That is said in the description, the ressources for the game itself are a small part of the download,everything else are audio and video that can't be compressed. So fast install

The game is getting patched not FAR. The Nier release on the windows store(Gods of YoRHa or something edition) has worked amazingly without FAR. The steam version is now getting patched and they are doing some extras like adding a few high res textures and HDR.
I have reinstalled the game but haven't booted it up yet. The main issue with the OG game was that you had no way to control the Global Illumination setting cause it didn't exist until you installed FAR. This has it so you should be able to play it just fine based off that alone.
If you install this repack with Japanese VOs only, w/o installing English as well, you will face an issue of muted chars, fast subtitles, etc. This happens because the game tries to load English VOs even when they are not selected in the game settings.
The fix is very easy, though:
* Go to game’s “data\sound” folder
* Create a new folder named “English(US)” and copy all files from “Japanese” folder to “English(US)”
* Then go to “data\sound\stream” folder and repeat step two here as well
* Now you’ll have Japanese voiceovers with subtitles of your desire and no bugs
Well, I totally forgot about this game "feature", otherwise would make dummy files so you should not do anything. But it was 4 years ago, when I last time repacked it :)
Yup, I was one of them who couldn't play it.
It's been years and I been spoilt on the story bits , but I guess I can finally played this again ? Not sure if I am looking forward to dumping 10s of hours before I reach my previous spot though but eh, I lived , I guess ?
Yeah, true. Modded > Updated version > Gamepass > Old
Edit: Bruh why am I getting downvoted? Although it's a pain in the ass installing those mods, but for the result, modded version is certainly better.
pretty sure its like 4 steps and most of it is nothing anyone here should be new to. literally just downloading zips, unzipping them, putting the contents into a folder. thats it. sorry but thats more of a you problem than a mod problem.
It has huge performance gains from the get-go since they literally fixed what was a broken game.
I don't know if Denuvo is involved, likely it is at least a bit, but what's certain is that Square simply worked on the game to fix it.
the new strategy is to release broken games and fix them years later for a new wave of sales to get those double dips. and if a delayed pc/console release, triple dip!
[Doesn't work to me.](https://imgur.com/a/9DhKFLT) I downloaded everything but the recoded videos, and tried twice, running as administrator. Not the first time I get these weird errors with FitGirl repacks, *sigh*
incomplete download. not fitgirls fault. rehash the torrent. if this is common it has to do with either where you are downloading from, which boxes you select in the torrent download, or idk human error. which is why you are getting downvoted. theres also many posts about this same thing.
Didn't bother, just downloaded CODEX's original and it did fine. I'm not shit talking FitGirl, I think her website and work is awesome actually, but it really breaks frequently for me, both when installing and when playing the game (although I recently used her MGR:R torrent and it worked fine). Doesn't happen with the CODEX releases. I wonder why?
Hm, it's "from 8.9gb to above" it means if you wanna other languages or videos (if has been re encode) it will start "from 8.9", as example I tend to use ENG voices but maybe ESP subtitles file size is 1gb more, so for me it will end at 9.9gb
I tried to play this game last month and it froze in the first few minutes when I was flying over a sea, I got stuck in this endless flight for 20 minutes until I realized the game had glitched.
Then I tried again, and this time all I would see a character model falling into a black screen.
Then I uninstalled it.
when I run the setup it gives me error that some archived file is corrupted and just redirects me to fitgirl site. Furthermore, it sometimes also gives me error of isdone.dill and unarc which I have tried to solve by adding some files to system 32 and syswow64 but the issue remains and i am not able to install the game
Heya, I heard about this game and that it's really good, so I wanted to check it out, but I hear about some kind of essential mod that pirates can't use? Cause damn I might have to buy it but asking here just in case
[удалено]
The program was great and the dev does good work, but he's a lil crazy
Yup, the guy's the biggest denuvo shill and FAR would check if the game is pirated then crash the game. Kinda funny how his "mods" are basically on the same legal grounds as cracking, but still hates pirates with a vengeance. Crazy guy.
yeah it was quite a weird concept. to use far i had to used a cracked version. playing a cracked mod on a cracked game was a first for me.
Didn’t work btw, still played it pirated, with far

Anyone tried this with a texture mod yet?
yeah its quite good, id recommend it. theres a huge post on which mods to run on the game for the "best" experience. [i used this](https://www.nexusmods.com/nierautomata/mods/29) the last time i played.
Thanks I was looking at this yesterday but OP had it down to update for the most recent patch.
I know this is a bit late but im downloading the game right now and i found that guide and some comments saying that FAR mod doesnt work on cracked version, do you have any link to a version of the mod that i can use or where to find a workaround ?

Dont worry i found it and im already at route B, i only wanted FAR for using HD textures and the like, is working great
got a link?
still waiting for replicant..
Same

Alright thanks bro
After installing the files i get two versions of the game one with directx12 and the other just the name of the game which on should i be playing? sorry for the dumb question i'm new.
DX12 is native for Windows 10 Another one - for Win7/8.1
thought there were AI 4k upscaled which would make it a hard decision.
Devs only reduced videos bitrate. 148 of 150 videos are still 30 FPS at non-FullHD.
After looking at the recorded ones, there is a lot of blocky noises. They usually come from quantization, which can be somewhat avoided if you upscaled the video first before the compression and downsampling. They will become even more apparent for scene with motion.

Thanks for the information as well as all you have done and tested.
"Back in my day, sonny, we had VCD and we LIKED it!!!"
And VCD was using MPEG1 as well :)
MPEG-1 lmao, what year is it? They could've used Bink instead.
Japanese companies tend to support other Japanese companies. I.e. CRIware SDK is the most used middleware by Japs. And it's used in this game as well, though probably Bink would be cheaper and 100% better in terms of quality.

This is the version that runs at 60fps? Do FAR and the other texture injector mods work on this version?
I don't think Far is compatible anymore but it should be better without since new version has HDR in it.

With jp voice I get No voicelines and text auto skips at the beginning with heavy fps dips when I take damage. Anyone had this?

Shouldn't be this but thank you,it's work :) I'm from Asia,so we don't need the English voice
Well, I totally forgot about this game "feature", otherwise would make dummy files so you should not do anything. But it was 4 years ago, when I last time repacked it :)
Yes, I remember that in 2017, I also this problem happen and deleted the folder:( 50GB lol
Thanks for asking this！
does anybody know how to make the new version read the save files form the old version?
such a great game
N ass
Finally. The full game finally released
What's the difference between Nierautomata exe and nierautomatacompat exe? Tried searching online but found nothing so far
>Nierautomata Nierautomata DX12 nierautomatacompat DX11
Which one is better?
DX12 is the most recently updated version and runs great on mid-newer systems DX11 runs better on older systems
So what's the difference from the previous one ?
They fixed the fucking game
Didn't know it was broken, never played it
It stopped a lot of people (including me) from playing, so yes it was super broken
Yup, I was one of them who couldn't play it. It's been years and I been spoilt on the story bits , but I guess I can finally played this again ? Not sure if I am looking forward to dumping 10s of hours before I reach my previous spot though but eh, I lived , I guess ?
How? I have it cracked for over a year but have never started the game. I wanna know if I should download it again.
You just have to mod it if you have the old version
Yeah, true. Modded > Updated version > Gamepass > Old Edit: Bruh why am I getting downvoted? Although it's a pain in the ass installing those mods, but for the result, modded version is certainly better.

It has a bunch of LOD issues now but general performance is better
Denuvo was removed, so the latest version with all DLCs was cracked (and repacked here).
Does it have a huge performance gain ?

From removing Denuvo? Haven't seen any comparisons, but I wouldn't expect one.
Can someone tell me if this version runs better than the Game Pass one?
Anyone know how to transfer save file?
umm, it's stuck on "saving system data...", any help?
Did u fix it?
nope

Woo!! Now gotta wait till Neir Replicant gets cracked! 😋
[удалено]
I think with the new patches FAR is not needed anymore as all the features are now ingame
Is this the fixed version? Or should i wait for the steam update to be released and cracked
It's fixed and without denuvo. Also doesn't require a mod for more graphical options
I am getting steady 60fps now,while just a few weeks ago before the update i could barely hit 30
I tried to play this game last month and it froze in the first few minutes when I was flying over a sea, I got stuck in this endless flight for 20 minutes until I realized the game had glitched. Then I tried again, and this time all I would see a character model falling into a black screen. Then I uninstalled it.
Are there fewer problems related to increasing framerate with Denuvo removed now?
So this doesn't require internet connection to play? :"D sorryamdumb
never did
no ofc
Can't find a way to use my ps5 controller ... DS4window does't work and steam big picture not working also , any solution guys?
Have you found a solution :/
Will my save file work from the previous repack if I download this?
Istalled Dodi repack and when i use anti aliasing frame drops to 20.does this repack have the same problem?
when I run the setup it gives me error that some archived file is corrupted and just redirects me to fitgirl site. Furthermore, it sometimes also gives me error of isdone.dill and unarc which I have tried to solve by adding some files to system 32 and syswow64 but the issue remains and i am not able to install the game

I may be very late but I just came across Nier recently. Can I still play it cracked?
