Toy Story 2 Recompiled v0.6.0 - Track Your Adventure!

Toy Story 2 Recomp v0.6.0 – Track Your Adventure!

A new way to keep track of your adventures with Buzz Lightyear is here! 🚀

I'm excited to announce the release of ToyStory2Recomp v0.6.0, featuring a brand-new optional enhancement: the Progress Tracker Mod!

This update is all about making it easier to follow your progress while preserving the original charm of the classic PlayStation adventure.

Introducing the Progress Tracker

Ever found yourself wondering which Pizza Planet Tokens you've already collected or what you're still missing in a level?

The new Progress Tracker makes answering those questions easier than ever.

Integrated directly into the game's original pause menu, it adds a dedicated Level Progress screen without interrupting the classic gameplay experience.

What's Included?

• Pizza Planet Token Tracking: See how many of the five tokens you've collected in the current level.
• Individual Level Objectives: Keep track of five unique objectives across each of the ten regular levels.
• Live Progress Updates: Completed objectives are automatically checked off as you collect tokens.
• Boss Progress: See whether you've defeated a particular boss.
• Seamless Pause Menu Integration: Switch between the original pause menu and the new progress screen.
• Widescreen Support: Enjoy the enhancement in both classic 4:3 and native 16:9.

The interface uses familiar fonts and visual elements from the original game, making the new feature feel right at home.

And just like the other enhancements, the Progress Tracker is completely optional and disabled by default.

Designed to Feel Like Part of the Original Game

One of my goals with ToyStory2Recomp is to introduce modern quality-of-life improvements without losing what made the original PlayStation release special.

Rather than creating an entirely separate interface, the Progress Tracker builds upon the existing pause menu.

Press D-pad Right to open the Level Progress screen, use D-pad Left or Triangle to return, and press Start to resume your adventure.

It's a small change to the way you interact with the game, but one that can make exploring and collecting much more convenient.

More Than Just a New Mod

Version 0.6.0 also includes updated documentation, additional screenshots, compatibility improvements, and further gameplay validation.

The Progress Tracker was tested during a complete playthrough of all 15 levels, including boss encounters and the ending sequence.

The release also retains the enhancements introduced in previous versions:

• Modern Camera Controls: Control the camera with the right analog stick, adjust sensitivity, and recenter the camera using R3.
• Native 16:9 Widescreen: Explore the game with an expanded horizontal field of view and repositioned HUD elements.
• Skip Startup Intro: Get to the original title screen faster.
• OpenBIOS Compatibility: Use the bundled OpenBIOS without needing a separate retail PlayStation BIOS dump.

All enhancements can be configured individually.

Available for Windows, Linux, and macOS

Prebuilt v0.6.0 packages are available for:

• Windows (x64)
• Linux (x64)
• macOS (Intel x64)
• macOS (Apple Silicon ARM64)

To get started, download the appropriate package, extract it, and follow the setup instructions.

You'll need your own compatible original PlayStation game disc. The currently supported version is USA / NTSC-U (SLUS-00893).

Please note that some widescreen rendering limitations remain, older savestates may be incompatible, and runtime behavior can vary between platforms.

What's Next?

ToyStory2Recomp continues to evolve, and there are still plenty of ideas worth exploring.

The goal remains the same: bring this beloved PlayStation adventure to modern systems while adding thoughtful, optional improvements that respect the original experience.

With Modern Camera Controls, native Widescreen, and now the Progress Tracker, the project has already come a long way.

Thank You!
