GTA3 on IRIX? ๐Ÿค” After almost two days of troubleshooting this beast finally compiles without errors. Loads and converts textures and shows start menu. ๐Ÿ˜† Don't know yet if it will ever be playable or if I'm just wasting my time. At least distcc was a big help to reduce the time of countless compile attempts.

    GTA3 on IRIX. Finally got it to render 3D!!! But there is still much to be done.

    GTA3 flames now render depth correctly in OpenGL 1.2 without shaders on IRIX VPro. No longer on top of all the other 3D objects. Needed some more fixing for Onyx 4 with FireGL, which behaves differently.

    Also the 2d overlay radar map now renders correctly. Screenshot on SiliconGraphics Onyx 4 with FireGL, courtesy of Chulofiasco.

    GTA3 on IRIX: Street now renders as it should with all textures and has reflection of lights. Unfortunately this comes with a hard performance impact without shaders. Trees look OK too now. Also added sound, you can now listen to radio stations and hear the sirens ๐Ÿš“ ๐Ÿšจ

    GTA3 Mission 2 completed! You don't want to know how many times I had to drive to Luigis, to debug the cause of the Bus Error crash when entering the blue spot to start Mission 2 ๐Ÿ˜œ

    @flexion@oldbytes.space Stupid question: Where do you find the source code for GTA3, for compiling it on IRIX? I thought that it's a proprietary video game only sold in binary form (but I don't pay close attention to video games, I might be wrong)
