2010 FIFA World Cup South Africa PC Port - Version 0.8

2010 FIFA World Cup South Africa PC Port - Version 0.8

This release adds offline achievement support and tools for installing DLC and squad saves copied from your own Xbox 360. The game is still built locally from your own ISO; no game ISO, copyrighted game assets, or generated game executable is distributed.

What's new

• Offline achievements: Track 31 offline achievements, with persistent unlocks and progress displayed in the Settings Achievements tab.
• Achievement notifications: Unlocks display an animated notification using the game's achievement icons and an unlock sound.
• Install your own DLC and squads: InstallDLC.exe provides a graphical installer, and tools/install_xcontent.py offers the same functionality from Python. Both install supported STFS packages copied from your own console; no DLC or save packages are included.
• Updated installers and Settings: The v0.8 Settings launcher and matched runtime are included in refreshed online and offline installer packages.

DLC tool credit

The DLC and squad installation tools were contributed by Miguel Gonzalez (@miguel-gl) in PR #16. Thank you!

2010 FIFA World Cup South Africa PC Port - Version 0.7

2010 FIFA World Cup South Africa PC Port - Version 0.7

This release focuses on smoother high-resolution rendering, an updated Settings experience, and installer/runtime maintenance. The installer builds the port locally from your own Xbox 360 ISO; no game ISO, game assets, or generated game executable is distributed.

What's new

• High-resolution performance: Updated, matched D3D12 renderer/runtime binaries improve readback and presentation performance at higher internal resolutions. The default remains 1x; higher render scales are optional in Settings and may still require a capable GPU.
• Native performance profile: Renamed the Settings graphics preset from "Xenia" to "Native." Its tuning and saved-config behavior are unchanged.
• Settings and runtime maintenance: Settings identifies itself as v0.7, checks the latest GitHub release, and retains the existing reset-defaults and log-pruning behavior.
• Installer updates: Refreshed online and offline installers include the updated Settings launcher and renderer/runtime pair. Existing installs can be updated by running the v0.7 installer into a new folder or manually replacing the runtime/GPU DLLs in both the game root and Backends\D3D12\, plus Settings.exe.

2010 FIFA World Cup South Africa PC Port - Version 0.6

2010 FIFA World Cup South Africa (PC Port) — Version 0.6

Big update focused on graphics, World Cup mode UI, stability, team select, and keyboard controls. Both installers still build the port on your PC from your own Xbox 360 ISO — no game assets or executables are redistributed.

Highlights & Fixes

• Resolution & upscaling

  • Reliable resolution list (720p–5K), native-first ordering, renderer max respected
  • Graphics & Upscaling tab: profiles, internal resolution (1x–4x), FXAA, MSAA, readback, anisotropic filter
  • FSR present path with quality modes (Quality / Balanced / Performance / Ultra / Native AA)
  • Default 1x + FSR Quality, FXAA off — keeps the yellow capital markers on the Select Team globe
  • At 2x+: safer combos (Standard VSync, AF8, no stadium force-sync) so matches stay playable

• Select Team (right stick / globe)

  • Crosshair now updates the selected nation again (readback_resolve = some)
  • Fixed wrong-nation picks under internal upscale (half-pixel / average-color tuning)
  • Capital city markers stay visible with FSR (GPU min point size; FXAA no longer eats 1px dots)

• World Cup mode / HUD / UI

  • Missing UI elements addressed via upscale threshold 640 (bloom/DoF/replay RTs stay native)
  • Black replays and cutscenes fixed when using internal resolution scale

• Performance / frame pacing

  • Hard 30 FPS lock fixed: present-interval cap for WC2010’s fifadllzf.xex (interval 2 → 1)
  • Runtime/GPU deployed to both install root and Backends\D3D12\ (the path the game actually loads)
  • Removed harmful readback sync-budget that caused fence timeouts and broke picking

• Keyboard & Settings

  • Full keyboard remapping in Settings (presets + per-action binds)
  • Official game icons on Settings, game exe, Desktop and Start Menu shortcuts

• Crashes & installer

  • Prior crash / QI-chain / fault-loop hardening carried forward from the ReXGlue patch set
  • USA/Asia disc support and resilient VS Build Tools detection (from v0.4) retained
  • Fresh installs get sane defaults: FSR Quality, present-interval cap, no sync budget

Asset	Description
FIFA-World-Cup-2010-Offline-Installer-v2.zip	Offline installer. Bundles LLVM 20.1.8 and the ReXGlue SDK. Requires VS C++ Build Tools already installed.
FIFA-World-Cup-2010-Online-Installer-v2.zip	Online installer. Downloads missing toolchain pieces on first run (~500 MB) into %LOCALAPPDATA%\FWC10.
FWC10-ReXGlue-SDK-0.3.3-win64.zip	ReXGlue SDK used by the online installer. Do not download manually — the installer fetches it.

How to install

1. Download and extract one of the installer zips.
2. Run FWC10OfflineInstaller.exe or FWC10OnlineInstaller.exe.
3. Pick your unmodified Xbox 360 ISO (PAL or USA/Asia En,Fr,Es) and a destination folder.
4. Start installation (local compile, roughly 20–40 minutes), then use Settings before Play.

Requirements: Windows 10/11 x64, ~12 GB free, Visual Studio C++ Build Tools (CMake/Ninja/MSVC).

Headless: FWC10OnlineInstaller.exe --install "<iso>" "<folder>" (optional --jobs N).

Notes for existing installs

If you already installed an older build, either re-run the v0.6 installer into a fresh folder, or copy the updated rexruntime.dll / rexgpu-xenos.dll into both the game folder and Backends\D3D12\, and refresh Settings.exe from the new package.

2010 FIFA World Cup South Africa PC Port - Version 0.4

2010 FIFA World Cup South Africa (PC Port) - Version 0.4

Both installers build the port on your PC from your own Xbox 360 ISO. No game
assets, game executables or generated game code are redistributed.

Highlights & Fixes

• Installer fixes (the two reported v0.3 blockers):

  • USA/Asia (En,Fr,Es) disc support. The module hash check no longer rejects
    non-PAL copies. The installer now accepts an unmodified PAL copy or the
    USA/Asia (En,Fr,Es) copy of 2010 FIFA World Cup South Africa, and logs which
    region it matched. (The PAL recompilation function-boundary overrides are
    reused for the matched module, since the engine DLL code is shared across these
    regions - please report any boot crash on a non-PAL disc.)
  • Resilient Visual Studio Build Tools detection. The VS bootstrapper is known
    to return non-zero HRESULTs (for example exit code 2147942512 / 0x80070070,
    reported by some users even though the C++ build tools were actually installed).
    The installer now re-checks the real install state after the bootstrapper runs
    and only fails if the tools are genuinely missing; it also accepts
    3010/1641 (reboot required) and decodes the exit code (e.g. Win32 error 112 =
    disk may be full) in the error message so you know what to fix.

• Settings launcher: Graphics & Upscaling tab (FIFA Street PC port model):

  • New Graphics & Upscaling tab in Settings.exe with a Performance Profile
    (Balanced / Quality / Performance / Custom), Internal Resolution
    (1x native / 2x / 3x / 4x), Post-Processing (None / FXAA / FXAA Extreme),
    Native 2x MSAA, Readback Resolve (Full / Some / Fast / None) and
    Anisotropic Filter (Off / 2x / 4x / 8x / 16x). Settings persist to
    worldcup2010.toml.
  • Fixed the resolution search: standard PC resolutions (720p-5120x2880) are
    always selectable even when the driver does not report them, the list is capped
    at the renderer's max (4x), and sorted native-first.

Highlights & Fixes

  • Presets for Classic FIFA, WASD, and Custom mapping.

  • Added Desktop and Start Menu shortcuts creation.
  • Granted standard user write permissions on install folder for config and logs without requiring run-as-admin.
