OpenRW

A project to re-implement gta3.exe, adding support for more platforms and fixing all of the bugs that have piled up.

REQURIES A LEGITAMATE COPY OF GTA III PC TO RUN, this project only functions with the original game's data.

Building

Dependencies:

• Bullet
• GLM (0.9.5+)
• SFML (2.0+)

Options:

• BUILD_OLD_TOOLS – Builds old, unmaintained tools (datadump & analyzer)

Running

rwgame

Implementation of the game itself.

• Options:
  • env: OPENRW_GAME_PATH, must be set to the folder containing "gta3.exe"
  • -w n, -h n sets initial window size

rwviewer

File viewer for game data, open the folder containing "gta3.exe" and it will load the data.

Currently only supports viewing instance data, pending some rewriting.

Things to do

• Make it work on Windows (shouldn't be too difficult for anyone with CMake and C++ experience)
• Write FindSFML and FindGLM scripts for cmake.
• Improve the vehicle dynamics
• Add more views to rwviewer
  • Handling data
  • Collision data
  • Animation scrubbing
• Improve file loading
  • One-off loaders should be moved out of GameData into some DATLoader or something.
  • Some error mechanism that allows for useful error messages.
