TMB_Recomp 0.3.2

Twisted Metal: Black (USA) as a native PC game, built on your PC from your own disc: nothing of the game is in this download.

What's new

Added

  • Story: start at (F2, Cheats): a new story can begin at any of its stages, Midtown Suburbs to Warhawk's Rooftop,
    instead of the Junkyard, then goes on from there as usual. Handy to try the later stages without playing through.

Fixed

  • Black Vista Highway (story stage 3) had no road: most of the level's ground and walls were not drawn. Some
    pieces of three Challenge arenas (DEATH1, DEATH2, DEATH5) were missing for the same reason. "Rebuild now" after
    updating fixes them.
  • Movie sound volume: the movies' sound now plays at the volume the game sets for it (it used a default
    volume before; a fix from the Valkyrie Profile 2 port, which shares the sound code).

Known limits

  • Story stages past the first are reachable and load correctly, but most have not been played to the end yet.
  • No widescreen yet.
  • Only the USA disc (SCUS-97101) is supported.
  • The launcher and the game are not signed: Windows SmartScreen asks for "More info", then "Run anyway".

Download

  1. TMB_Recomp-0.3.2.zip below. Check its SHA-256 before running anything:
    Get-FileHash .\TMB_Recomp-0.3.2.zip (PowerShell) must print

    460158B12EDBA002593B1DEDC15609E9493BB38AA2CF73D70042B5A019D44BE6
    
  2. Unzip it anywhere you like except Program Files, with about 10 GB free, and double-click TMB Launcher.exe. It is not signed: on Windows protected your PC, click More info, then Run anyway.

  3. Select your USA disc image (SCUS-97101), Prepare the game (a few minutes, once), Play.

Updating from an earlier release: unzip this one where you unzipped it (the zip holds a TMB_Recomp folder; replace the files), then Rebuild now when the launcher offers it: only what changed is built again. Saves and settings are in %APPDATA%\TMB_Recomp and stay.

Source code and licences

The code is in the zip (source\) and at the commit above: our own code under the MIT licence, PS2Recomp (the runtime and recompiler it is built on) under GPL-3.0, which makes the game you build a GPL-3.0 combined work. The build kit redistributes unmodified GPL / LGPL programs (GCC, binutils, mingw-w64, the DLLs CMake loads) and FFmpeg (LGPL-2.1+): LICENSES\ in the zip has their licences, and LICENSES\SOURCES.txt lists each package with its exact source on repo.msys2.org. Their corresponding source is attached to this release as TMB_Recomp-0.3.2-sources.zip. For three years from this release we also provide it on request (GitHub issues).
