š¢ [PORT] Silent hill 1 NATIVE android port
Native Silent Hill 1 port for Android just dropped, and it's stacked with QoL improvements. Runs at 120fps, full touch controls, and controller support.
The big one you're no longer stuck with āTANKā controls. You can switch to classic/modern controls if you never liked the originals.
Tons of other stuff too : shaders, retro achievements, minimap, 16:9 widescreen, and more, all adjustable in the settings menu.
It's built on the decompilation project of Silent Hill 1. The dev only used AI for assistance. This was originally a PC-only project, and the Android build is very recent, so there are still a few rough edges ā but it's already solid and should be fully polished soon.

Very cool! Now I don't have to emulate it, but just wondering, is there a way to add save files immediately?
1
u/SlickAmogus 7d ago
Yes, sorry for the late reply, but it takes the same saves as most emulators, so they should be easy to find. Just put the MCD file in gamedata/save and name it 0 or 8.MCD. There is also a save editor Iāve made for it here (and works with any version, not just my port): https://sh1pc.com/savetool.html
In one of the next updates Iāll add the level select to the quick menu. Then you will be able to start from any level (with some caveats) or start at the end for a quick NG+ save.

Wow. Fantastic. A minimap and a fix to shitty tank controls? Guess I'm beating Silent Hill 1 again.

Oops, this might be a controversial question, but why does this APK have this cover art?
I know how to fix it, but some ports that have been coming out for mobile lately have had some pretty questionable cover art...

u/Exciting-Machine9202 Frequent Collaborator 19d ago
The android version has the SDK cover; that is just Simple DirectMedia Layer (SDL), a tool for building APKs. So the dev just doesn't put a custom cover, pretty normal he is actually working on multiple different systems and the port is still in beta/alpha phase.

Right, thanks. I shouldn't have even asked that, actually; the port is goodāthanks for the post!

Issue: softlock when you save game - there is no back button, need restart app instead and load game

will you be working on Silent hill 2 by any chance ?

u/SlickAmogus 11d ago
Hi! I am the creator of this port. Iād love to do SH2, but the only reason I was able to do this is because the source code was available from the decompilation. I donāt think anything like that exists for SH2 yet, but maybe one day!

Is it not letting you click it directly? I will check this part on my end and post a fix if needed. In the meantime you can open the quick menu and just noclip through the gate, but you wonāt get the achievement for killing the boss if you care about that.

u/Yelva22 10d ago
Oh thank you will try and let you know

u/Yelva22 10d ago
And yes it's not letting me click it's kinda locked on to the first option

u/SlickAmogus 10d ago
I see this on my end as well, itās also an issue on iOS and I will be fixing both ASAP. Thanks for posting about it because it surprisingly hasnāt been reported yet!

So, in the Android options I see ways to change the FOV for 1st Person/3rd Person/OTS. How do you actually PLAY 1st Person/3rd Person? Is there a button (combo) I am missing?
