The dev build's ISO can be found on epforums.org (registration required) and is playable on a modded PS2 or in an emulator.

To prevent glitched shadows when playing Oni 2 in PCSX2, you need to switch the GSdx plugin to Software mode; this will severely cut performance compared to rendering in Hardware mode. A separate issue with the lighting in this dev build will cause characters to become silhouettes in many settings; this cannot be corrected. | To prevent glitched shadows when playing Oni 2 in PCSX2, you need to switch the GSdx plugin to Software mode; this will severely cut performance compared to rendering in Hardware mode.

Oni 2 accepts various launch arguments. To pass arguments to the game, you must use a recent nightly build of PCSX2 which supports this feature. Calling PCSX2 on the command line, pass it the argument <tt>--game-args="-arg1 -arg2 -etc."</tt>. Note that the patch tool provided in the previous section will allow you to play any level without using launch arguments. | Oni 2 accepts various launch arguments.

The syntax for arguments which require a parameter, such as "-layout", is "-argument=parameter". The descriptions given below are taken verbatim from the game, and the effects are based on our testing. | The syntax for arguments which require a parameter, such as "-layout", is "-argument=parameter".
