Trivia

• Original names: ソーコムII U.S. NAVY SEALs (SCPS-15065)
• Crouching in the game (necessary for finishing parts of single player depending on your play style) requires pressure-sensitive buttons like the DualShock 2 controllers have. A workaround for controllers with analog triggers (like the Xbox 360 controller or the Logitech F310) is by swapping the L2 or R2 with the stance changing button (by default Triangle) and pressing the trigger halfway.

Fixed Issues

Broken FMVs

• Status: Fixed
• Type: Minor
• Description: FMVs are not rendered in Hardware mode.
• Workaround: For old versions of PCSX2, go to Config > Emulation Settings > Game Fixes tab, click "enable manual game fixes" and enable the "Switch to GSdx Software rendering when an FMV plays" fix.

Night vision is broken

• Status: Fixed
• Type: Serious
• Description: Night vision does not render properly under Hardware mode. This feature plays a major effect in some missions.
• Workaround: Fixed since at least commit (075a9f3). For old versions of PCSX2 press the F9 key to switch to Software mode during these missions.
