Splitscreen was a console-exclusive feature but all of the code is still in the PC version, here’s a patch to enable it.
Installation
First get ZPatchFO2 from this guide – [steamcommunity.com] .
After having installed ZPatchFO2, do the following:
Set SplitscreenFix to 1 in ZolikaPatchFO2.ini
Make sure player 2’s controller is the one next to keyboard in the controller selection in Options
Set controller to keyboard in the options menu
Disable Mouse Camera Control in ZMenu if you have it installed and it’s on
Press Enter and then Esc after getting in-game to ready both players
Notes
Post-processing is disabled for the top player, likely due to performance reasons when the mode was originally made for PS2.
SplitscreenFix=1 will break pausing in single-player games if you use a controller as your main input device, and make Online lobby search show 0 results. Set it back to 0 if you’re a pad player and want to play SP or if you want to play Online MP at all.
Other mods
Widescreen Fix by ThirteenAG – [github.com] (not confirmed to work as my game doesn’t launch with this in even if the rest is vanilla)
ZMenu – [steamcommunity.com] , mod menu with features such as mouse camera rotation, free camera, forcing AI skin, FOV multiplier, experimental water physics and GTA-like air control
