zip files and put them into your GTA 3 installation directory.

– Open up your relevant version of Re3 (either 32bit or 64bit) – Install GTA 3 and open up it’s installation folder (right click on game in your library and choose “browse local files”) (if one doesn’t work, just replace the files with the other).

compare CodeWarrior build with original binary for more accurate code (very tedious)ġ.

reverse remaining unused/debug functions.

Compare code with PS2 code (tedious, no good decompiler).

Improve performance on lower end devices, especially the OpenGL layer on the Raspberry Pi.

Since then we have started reLCS, which is currently work in progress. After a few months of mostly steady progress we considered reVC finished in December. Others quickly joined the effort (Fire_Head, shfil, erorcun and Nick007J in time order, and Serge a bit later) and we made very quick progress throughout the summer of 2019 after which the pace slowed down a bit.ĭue to everyone staying home during the start of the Corona pandemic everybody had a lot of time to work on re3 again and we finally got a standalone exe in April 2020 (around 180k lines by then).Īfter the initial excitement and fixing and polishing the code further, reVC was started in early May 2020 by starting from re3 code, not by starting from scratch replacing functions with a dll. At the time I (aap) had reversed around 10k lines of code and estimated the final game to have around 200-250k. This was done by replacing single functions of the game with their reversed counterparts using a dll.Īfter a bit of work the project lay dormant for about a year and was picked up again and pushed to github in May 2019. Re3 was started sometime in the spring of 2018, initially as a way to test reversed collision and physics code inside the game. Information taken from the relevant github for the project How to install and run the recent reverse-engineered GTA 3 fixes with RE3.
