Still in development: bugs can and will occur. A build ready to play, with your own Xbox 360 disc image, is on the releases page.

Még fejlesztés alatt: hibák előfordulhatnak.

Static recompilation of Call of Duty 3 (Xbox 360) to native x86-64, using XenonRecomp.

The game's PowerPC code translates to C++ and compiles cleanly: 19,462 functions, every instruction translated. All 179 Xbox 360 kernel imports are implemented, memory mapped I/O reaches the GPU register file, and a command processor decodes the packets the graphics driver queues.

CoD3.exe installs the game from your own disc image and boots it into a window. The first level, Saint-Lô, is playable: the menus, the loading screen, the opening cutscene and the fighting run at the title's own 60 frames a second on the host's GPU through a Direct3D 11 renderer built for a PC (see docs/renderer.md), drawn from the title's own shaders translated to HLSL, with the terrain, the buildings, the soldiers, the grass, the sky, the shadows, the HUD and the saved checkpoints all working, at the window's resolution with mip mapped, anisotropically filtered textures, FXAA and vertical sync. All fifteen levels' code is recompiled and every level loads and plays, the mission title cards, the mission failed screen and the checkpoints with them. The sound plays, the title's XMA voices decoded through FFmpeg, and so do the films: the legal notice, the Activision and Treyarch logos, the attract loop and each mission's briefing, through the title's own player, with Space (the A button) to skip them.

The keyboard and mouse stand in for the console's pad. In a level the window takes the mouse and looks with it; Escape gives it back and pauses; a click takes it again. Every key can be changed in the settings menu.

The look reads the mouse's own movement, the counts its device reports, rather than following the pointer across the screen: Windows' pointer speed and its "enhance pointer precision" do not reach it, so the same sweep of the hand is the same turn on every machine. The settings menu turns that off for anyone who wants the pointer's travel back.

The settings menu (F11, and it opens by itself when OPTIONS is chosen in the title's main menu, over the title's own options page) has the window mode (windowed or borderless full screen; Alt+Enter switches too), the resolution (the desktop's by default; the window is made that size, full screen scales it, and the frame is drawn at it) and the resolution scale in per cent of it, the texture filtering and anisotropy, anti aliasing (MSAA 2x to 8x, FXAA, or both), the texture quality, the field of view (65 to 100), the model detail (the game's own level of detail, or the finest model at every distance), the blur while aiming, vertical sync, the frame rate in a level (unlimited by default: a level is played at what the machine can do, around a hundred frames a second where the console had sixty, while the menus keep 60 and the films their 30), a frame counter and the renderer's statistics, the mouse sensitivity and whether the mouse is read raw, the title's aim assist, the pad, and the keys; on its Gameplay page the subtitles (the title's cg_subtitles) and the console, and on its Experimental page the native command lists and the memory write watch (both on by default; the draws come from the game's own D3D calls rather than from its GPU command stream). It is drawn in the colours of the title's own menus. It keeps its values in CoD3Recomp.ini beside the executable. Everything the game prints goes to CoD3.log beside the executable as well as to its console, and the run before is kept as CoD3.previous.log: after a freeze or a crash, that file says where every thread stood (COD3_LOG=0 turns it off, COD3_LOG=path puts it elsewhere). The same settings can be forced from the environment for a run: COD3_SCALE, COD3_TEXTURE_FILTER, COD3_RESSCALE, COD3_ANISO, COD3_AA, COD3_TEXQUALITY, COD3_MODELDETAIL, COD3_AIMBLUR, COD3_VSYNC, COD3_UNLOCKFPS, COD3_FULLSCREEN; COD3_EXEC="command;command" runs the title's console commands at start; COD3_RENDER_STATS=1 prints the renderer's counters once a second and COD3_RENDER_PROFILE=1 where a draw's microseconds go.

The console (the key left of 1, which the title's own configs bind to toggleconsole; off until the Gameplay page turns it on) drops from the top of the screen as the Call of Duty engines' own does, and takes the title's console commands and puts them on its command buffer, the way the chapter select starts a level: spmap forest, map_restart, cg_fov 80, timescale 0.5, god, noclip, give all, seta com_maxfps 60. The title's own console was stripped from this build (its toggleconsole command and its Com_Printf are gone), so the commands run but the title says nothing back; help lists examples, clear empties the log, Escape closes it.

Saved games go to saves/ beside the executable.

A pad works as well when one is plugged in.

The instructions this project added to the recompiler are checked against Xenia's PowerPC instruction tests, and all 16 that have a test pass.

.\scripts\recompile.ps1 -BuildTools -BuildLib -BuildHost

Needs CMake 3.20+, Ninja, Clang, and the Visual Studio Build Tools for the Windows SDK headers. Clang is required, not preferred.

Put your own default.xex in CoD3RecompLib/private/ first, so the recompiler has something to translate. No game files are included here.

.\scripts\verify.ps1        # the instructions this project added
.\scripts\verify.ps1 -All   # every test Xenia has

Assembles Xenia's instruction tests, recompiles them the same way the game's code is recompiled, runs them, and reports any register that comes out wrong.

CoD3.exe looks for a game folder next to itself. If it is not there, first time setup runs and offers three ways to supply the game:

1. Extract from an Xbox 360 disc image. XGD1, XGD2, XGD3 and stripped images are all recognised.
2. Copy from a folder you already extracted.
3. Use a folder you already extracted, where it is, copying nothing. The path is remembered in game.path.

Setup checks that the disc holds a default.xex of the same size as the one this build was recompiled from, before writing several gigabytes.

Started from Explorer, the window waits for a key before closing, so the output can be read. Started from a shell it exits straight away and leaves the prompt alone.

The picker dialogs can be skipped:

CoD3.exe --iso "D:\path\Call of Duty 3.iso"
CoD3.exe --game "D:\path\Call of Duty 3 (USA, Europe)"
CoD3.exe --list-iso "D:\path\Call of Duty 3.iso"
CoD3.exe --help

A level can be started straight from the main menu, the way the chapter select does it, with COD3_MAP=<level>[,<second>] in the environment: at that second (twelve by default) the title's own spmap <level> console command is put on its command buffer. The main menu has to be up by then, which COD3_NOFILMS=1 (no intro films) and COD3_PAD="5:start 8:a" (Start at five seconds, A at eight) see to in a scripted run. The level names are the folders under sp: saint_lo, island, nightd, crssrds, hostage, mayenne, forest, falaise, fuelplnt, chambois, mace2, laison, stbert, blkbrn, credits. COD3_WIN=<second>:<level> marks the running mission won at that second with <level> as the next, the way a level script does, to test the way from one mission to the next: the title reboots itself for it, and this executable starts again with the title's launch data (COD3_LAUNCHDATA). COD3_CMD="22:god" puts the title's own console commands on its buffer.
