xXPostalDudeXx: EDIT:
Well, doesnt seem to work for BR2 let alone because of how the file sizes of the pod files are.
When using and overriding it there are cutscene voices and stuff missing. The Steam version W32ENSND is 300mb big.
And no, the W32ART.POD from Andres87 will probably also not work because the one in the Steam version is around 1.8GB big, uploaded one is only around 450mb big though.
W32ART its only compressed to zip. Oryginally has :1,73 GB ( 1 858 646 016 bytes). I haven't unfortunately steam version and I can't check it.

The game will be blocked for German IPs in a few days. Then there will be no longer any reason why swastikas are missing. GOG should apply those uncut patches to the main game so we receive a full uncut game. I wan't one, uncut, version for games on GO and not censored stuff... Block the games for countries that won't tolerate those version and everything is fine.

the probem ist that the us and the uk version dont have swastikas regularly in the pc version.
only on xbox the were those symbols in it.

dont know why but you already got the uncut version. the swastikas in the game is a modification

If would be neat if GoG packaged the uncensored swastika mod in with the game as an option, but I don't see that happening.

gog doesnt use mods.
only in some cases to get the game running but in this case it is only nice to have.

the xbox version has the swastikas in it.
why it is missing in the pc version i dont know.

so as you already suggested that wont happen that this mod will be included.
but we have it solved otherwise....

The U.S (PS2 & XBOX NTSC) versions has swastikas.

"All versions released outside of Germany where uncut in terms of violence. However, all PC versions (even the US ones), as well as the PAL version for the Xbox, lack swastikas which have been replaced by triskelions (the sign of the GGG). The gameplay video, which is played after a while in the starting screen, does not show any scenes in which swastikas appear. Only the PS2, GameCube and the US Xbox version are uncut. Unfortunately the censorship was done badly. There are two videos, in the manual, in the menu and ingame which show swastikas. SS runes remained untouched. Hitler can be seen on several pictures and he also does the Hitler greeting. Even some sentences from his speech can be heard. Out of this reasons the game has never been released in Germany."

You'll probably want to check out Terminally Uncut, it's something of an upgrade: https://www.gog.com/forum/bloodrayne_legacy_series/are_there_any_mods_at_all/post51

IntegralUncut and UncutMod are fairly rough (some of those edits look like they were done in MS Paint and I'm not kidding!) and occasionally "decensor" GGG symbols that were actually supposed to be there. TerminallyUncut uses actual console textures for the unique bosses and where the console textures were lower rez, it merges their uncensored parts with the PC textures in other places so that the resulting image is uncensored without losing too much detail.

Thanks for this. I also thought the old mod really looked rough. Need to check it out.

Damn. Sucks that I've played through the original game before this came out. But all the more reason to play through the Terminal Cut now :D

Also, what is the 3rd downloaded file "ps2Tex2bmp.pl"? Is it the uncensored textures for the Terminal Cut? Does it get loaded along with the POD file?

Thanks.

EDIT:
Noticed in the readme, that it mentions the console textures had half resolution and may have noticeable pixelation in-game. How much are we talking about? Is it really noticeable or do you have to look for it? You mention that the original uncut mods look like they were made in paint, but I didn't notice anything terrible (or out of place like pixelated compared to the surroundings) when I played with it (IntergalUncut).

And bonus question, could they be upscaled?

Ignore the .pl file. It's a Perl script used to convert textures from TEX to BMP format for editing, I have no idea how it ended up in the zip.

More on the "you have to look for it" side.

Maybe. Someone was working on applying AI upscaling to the game's textures but tbh at this small size I don't think it's a very realistic goal.

thefifthhorseman.229: Tons of stuff...
Damn. Thanks for the extremely detailed response.

Really appreciate the comparison between them all. Now I see what you meant and I probably picked the worse one of the 2 previously available. Also interesting how both the mods got the swastika orientation wrong on the box textures. Anyway, I will absolutely be replaying the game with your mod.

Thanks again.

EDIT:
Also, there is this quite outdated Steam guide:
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=664604969

It's what I used when I was playing the game for the first time and where I got the old uncut mods. Comes up as the top result when looking for BloodRayne censorship. Can I mention/link this thread in the discussion there so people on Steam can also use the most faithful uncensor mod available?

Just FYI... yesterday's update to the Terminal Cut edition uncensored it.
