Download from Mods4Ever.com.

Use vanilla/GOTY (optionally with Lay D Denton) to get all of the Randomizer’s features, best QoL improvements, and the most polished experience. Our installer has an option to install Lay D Denton for you automatically. We also support Revision, GMDX, HX, and Vanilla? Madder.

If you’re experiencing objects warping and drawing on top of each other incorrectly when using the D3D10 renderer, you need to install the 2010 x86 Visual C++ Redistributable package, which you can get from Microsoft here. Alternatively, you can use the D3D9 or OpenGL renderer (and check the Rando ➜ Visuals menu for Brightness Boost).

NOTICES:

If you want to start with Speed Enhancement augmentation (improves running speed and jumping abilities) like previous versions, then select the loadout called “Speed Enhancement”. Otherwise you will start with a new augmentation called “Running Enhancement” which only improves your running speed, with a chance to find “Speed Enhancement” in an aug can.

Also we want to do more speedrun races and content. If you can beat the game in less than 3 hours, or if you can do more than 4 loops of WaltonWare in 1 hour (use the new timer for this), then we need you! Come join our Discord or contact us anywhere else. Check out our new speedrun guide!

There is a savegame compatibility issue if you’re in the middle of M06, M08, or M10, the safest time to update to v3.5 is when Jock is ready to take you to the next area.
