|
|

PC (Windows and Linux):

|

|
|
|
|
|
### Timeline:
|
|
- Feb 19, 2019 - created skeleton, one year long preparations
|
|
- Mar 28, 2020 - started work on reimplementing the game, game intro running
|
|
- Sep 19, 2020 - reimplementing game complete - game is fully playable
|
|
- Jan 15, 2021 - refactoring complete
|
|
|
|
### Information
|
|
- Game was completely disassembled and reverse-engineered from MIPS back to C (except Memory Card menu overlay)
|
|
- Game has been *significantly improved over the original Playstation version*, original bugs was fixed and completed some unfinished gameplay aspects
|
|
- Utilizes [Psy-X (Psy-Cross) (formely extended TOMB5 emulator)](https://github.com/OpenDriver2/REDRIVER2/tree/master/src_rebuild/PsyX) as a layer for porting from Playstation
|
|
- Runs on Windows, Linux and soon to be on the other platforms (including backport to Playstation), no emulation involved
|
|
- Basic modding support - with textures and models replacement provided with [OpenDriver2Tools](https://github.com/OpenDriver2/OpenDriver2Tools)
|
|
|
|
### What to expect from it
|
|
- ***OpenDriver2*** project - complete rewrite with lots of new features such as *new renderer and sound engine, Lua scripting, Driver 1 content support*
|
|
|
|
### How is it done?
|
|
- All information (variables, types and function names) have been obtained from debugging symbols (.SYM), driver_psx_level and DLE
|
|
- 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 (mostly GTE code)
|
|
|
