Resident Evil Ø ver:1.8 By Thanos rulzs

Welcome to the guide for Resident Evil 0! This walkthrough is by Thanos rulzs and is an unofficial guide, not associated with Brady, Prima, or Capcom. The game's story kicks off in 1998, before the events of other Resident Evil titles like Resident Evil 1, 2, and 3. Strange murders are happening in Raccoon City, and reports of flesh-eating monsters attacking homes lead to the S.T.A.R.S. team being dispatched to the forest. The Bravo team arrives first, but their helicopter malfunctions, marking the beginning of a nightmare. Resident Evil 0 is a single-player game packed with action, strategy, and puzzles that you'll need to solve to progress. It's a fantastic game from Capcom, the creators of Street Fighter and Mega Man. The author is still learning the ropes of FAQ writing, so constructive criticism is welcome.

Part 1: Controls

Controls:

Movement: Use the control stick or pad to move your character. Pushing up moves forward, down moves backward, right rotates right, and left rotates left.
180 Degree Turn: Press and hold the Down direction on the control stick or pad simultaneously with the B button.
L Button: Switches targets.
R Button: Hold this button to ready your weapon.
Z Button: Opens the map screen. You can also open the map screen via the inventory.
X Button: Flips or switches between characters.
Y Button: Opens the inventory/status screen.
A Button: This is your action button. It confirms selections, picks up items, and shoots your weapon when the R button is held.
B Button: This button cancels selections. It also functions as the run button when held down with a direction on the control stick or pad.
C Stick: Controls the other character if both characters are in the same room.
Start Button: The function of the Start button depends on whether you are in solo or team mode. In team mode, with a partner in the same room, pressing Start will trigger a short character talk, such as 'let me handle it', which automatically switches to solo mode. This is useful for speed players as it bypasses the need to visit the status screen.

Injury Conditions:

Fine green: Your character is not injured.
Caution Yellow: An injury state that normally can be ignored. A green herb can cure this.
Caution Orange: Take note of this injury, as one more hit will put you in the Danger Red state. Two herbs or a mixture of green and red herbs can cure this.
Danger Red: Take note of this injury, as one more damaging hit will result in death. Triple green herbs or a mixture of green and red herbs can cure this.
Poison purple: When your character is poisoned, heal with a blue herb immediately. The longer poison persists, the more serious the injury will become, potentially leading to a Danger state after you cure the poison.

Visual Cues:

When your character is in the Caution zone (Yellow or Orange), they will use their arm over their shoulder, indicating an injury.
When in the Danger zone (Red), your character will stagger and move slowly, indicating a critical state that requires immediate healing.

Tips

Always check your status screen (ECG) to understand your current health condition.
Blue herbs are specifically for curing poison.
Red herbs are most effective when mixed with green herbs for more severe injuries.
Do not ignore Caution Yellow if you anticipate taking more damage soon.
