REDRIVER2

PC:

Project attempting to reverse-engineer PS1 game Driver 2;

Goals

• Rebuild all of source code from assembly.
• Compile it NATIVELY for PC (and probably PSX later)
• Make game playeble from start to finish, all game modes
• Fix some existing critical bugs and performance issues
• OpenDriver2? rewrite code, implement various cool stuff, PC rendering and audio engine, get rid of hard-coded stuff

How done

• Ghidra project (based on Italian SYM) to deal with overlays, simple code complex branching - semi-auto decompilation
• IDB based on Spanish SYM when dealing with things Ghidra can't handle properly - manual decompilation

Usage

• Assuming you have compiled the most recent code. Copy DRIVER2 folder from your game CD to location where compiled EXE is located.
