  • Compatibility with HCE arguments (-window, -vidmode, etc.)
  • Automatic video/audio enhancements
    • Custom native video resolution
    • Border-less HCE window mode
  • Support for the SPV3 mod
    • SPV3 loading, updating, installing
    • SPV3/Lumoria campaign resuming

Usage

The USAGE document goes into detail on how to use HXE. In a nutshell:

# automatically loads SPV3 in 720p window
.\hxe.exe -window -vidmode 1280,720,60

# installs SPV3 to C:\SPV3
.\hxe.exe -install "C:\SPV3"

# configure the kernel
.\hxe.exe -config

Requirements

Operating System

Minimum Recommended
Windows 7 SP1 32-bit (w/ addl. software) Windows 10 64-bit

Note: Upgrading To Windows 10

Using the Windows Installation Media Creation Tool, you can still upgrade to Windows 10 with your Windows 7/8/8.1 license. HOWEVER...

  • If your hardware distributor does not make Windows 10 drivers for your hardware, you may have a worse Windows 10 experience than expected.
  • Some drivers made for earlier Windows releases may work on Windows 10; some won't. You won't know until you try.
