RE4 Leon in Night City

Walk Night City as Leon S. Kennedy from Resident Evil 4 (2005). Leon's own model, textures and animations are read straight from your copy of Resident Evil 4 while you play: nothing from either game is shipped.

What you get

• Leon in V's place. His tactical-vest outfit from RE4, his head and layered hair, his gloved hands and his handgun, lit by Night City's own light around him. V is hidden.
• His real animations. RE4's handgun idle, walk, run and back step; drawing, aiming up, level and down with where you look; firing recoil; reloading; and his roundhouse kick. They are RE4's own motion data, with his feet and hands placed the way RE4 places them.
• RE4's camera. Over Leon's right shoulder like RE4, closer when you aim, kept out of walls.
• RE4's combat rules. One shot staggers an enemy. While it's staggered in front of you, [F] KICK shows: Leon's roundhouse sends it, and any other staggered enemy in reach, flying to the ground.

Controls: Cyberpunk's own. Right mouse aims, left mouse fires, R reloads, F kicks a staggered enemy.

Needs: Cyberpunk 2077 (2.31) and Resident Evil 4 (2005, Steam; the RE4 HD Project works too). Melty finds your RE4 and installs the rest. Solo.

First version, known limits: Leon is drawn over the HUD, and walls between him and the camera don't hide him. You see V as usual in vehicles. Leon casts no shadow yet.
