Notes
- To run the installer, you need to check on the box "run directory" when using Point2Play or use "--use-dos-cwd" when using Cedega.
- Use the loki installer, not the Setup.exe program that is found on cd.
- The loki installer will patch the game to 1.03.
- To disable Violence Lock:
On your shortcut, right click -> Properties -> add "+set lock_blood 0" to the Target line. Or simply add it to the command line like so: sof2sp +set lock_blood 0
-When you start the game, pull down the console by pressing "shift" and "~" to
-Type "menu lock"
-A new option on the bottom menu will be activated (it has a pic of a lock). Click on it. It will promt for a password, you can just press ok.
-Turn on all of the gore and set a new password (or keep it blank).
-Restart and play with gore.

Issues
- Once you get to put in the next CD, it says it can't find a setup file. I have not been able to install this game with either Wine, CrossOver Office, or straight Cedega.
- Pressing the alt keys in at least the demo, will freeze the game untill you press it again. You'll have to rebind alternative attack.
- 3 out of 5 times, the in game videos will lock up your game and your whole system. Forcing you to reboot.
- Sof II Mis-detects nvidia graphics cards I have an Geforce FX5200 and it detects it as a 1st Gen Geforce with 16mb. No fancy graphics!!
