Pull requests which drastically alter the structure or architecture of the code will not be accepted. This is to maintain "sanity" whilst going back through code, comparing to the original MIPS disassembled output. Best pull requests are which resolve bugs, finish existing decompiled methods, improve readability, introduce new decompiled methods and improve code documentation.
Also it's good to see which issues have more priority to work with here: https://github.com/SoapyMan/REDRIVER2/contribute
Project must be built only for 32 bit platform because there are 32 bit pointers everywhere (and use of long which with GCC can be a 64 bit numbers)
First use premake5 to generate project files.
Dependencies (links for Windows):
You need to download all the dependencies and extract them. After set next environment variables like:
SDL2_DIR = <your_dependency_folder>\SDL2-2.0.12
GLEW_DIR = <your_dependency_folder>\glew-2.1.0
OPENAL_DIR = <your_dependency_folder>\openal-soft-1.20.1-bin
JPEG_DIR = <your_dependency_folder>\jpeg-9d
JPEG itself needs to be configured - go to your JPEG_DIR folder and rename jconfig.xx (proper one for your platform) to jconfig.h.
For Windows / Visual Studio you need to choose jconfig.vc
Next you need to run premake5 <target IDE>, see premake documentation;
Or just run gen_vc2019.bat (Windows only)
- [D] = decompiled
- [T] = debugged and tested
- [A] = altered code - debugging purposes or not being able to compile or run.... Can be used anywhere in the code, structures etc
- SLES-02997/SLES-12997 - 1.0 Spanish version (look for SPANISH.SYM existance)
- SLES-02996/SLES-12996 - 1.0 Italian version (look for ITALIAN.SYM existance)
After you have built game executable you would want to copy entire DRIVER2 folder from game CD or image to location where executable is located. STR files and XA files for now are converted using JPSXDec.
- STR -> AVI (mjpg)
- XA -> multiple WAV files
