REDRIVER (Reverse-Engineered Driver)

Information

• This is the original Driver (Reflections Interactive, 1999), PC version — an AI-assisted decompilation: the executable is translated back to C function by function, with an AI agent working from the IDA database under the author's review.

• The code keeps the original platform layer (Win32, DirectDraw / Direct3D 6 under the game's own Glide-to-Direct3D layer, DirectInput 5, DirectSound / EAX) in the master branch.

• This specific branch is a platform-update - a port to SDL and OpenGL, OpenAL that removes all of the legacy code + game fixes applied on top of it

How is it done?

• An IDA database of the PC executable (mapped from iOS version symbols) with recovered names, types and data layout; the source tree is laid out like the original (game6.4g), and IDA function folders map to its files.
• The REDRIVER2 reconstruction of Driver 2 (same engine), as well as OpenDriverTools is used for orientation — names and meanings of constants, structure of tangled code.

What's next

• Verify the decompilation against the original, then port to SDL and OpenGL.
