This mod aims to enhance the audio quality of PC of the animated cutscenes and game audio.
Initially the plan was to backport ALL audio from Full Body to the PC version. Cutscenes included but it was too big of a task due to various circumstances such as the sheer amount of audio, and some newer cutscenes having Rin in them where they weren't before. So I settled on using the 360 audio. The change in quality between the PC audio and Xbox 360 is negligible. Still the quality is a bit higher.
The 2D Animated cutscenes suffered the most on PC, with compression that's 10 times worse than even the Xbox 360 with macro blocking and artifacts and loss of colour. The audio quality was incredibly poor, even being worse then 360 with heavy compression artifacts and what sounds like joint stereo for the audio compression. This mod ported the PS3 cutscenes and upscaled them to 1080p and restored surround audio for all the 2D animated cutscenes where available. The audio has been re-encoded into Microsoft’s propriety WMA 10 Pro at a way higher bit rate then the vanilla PC version.
This mod also includes the improved music mod by Blader Cut on Redditt who has ported the audio from Full Body while also using OST versions for the additional tracks.
Hopefully this little side project will help PC players enjoy the game a bit more (Until we get full body)
