v0.1.0 beta

First public beta of the native PC port of the Xbox version of Colin McRae Rally 2005.

No game files are included. You need your own copy of the US (NTSC) Xbox version of the game; other releases
will most likely crash (the port warns at start), and the PC version will not work.

Getting started

1. Download CMR2005.zip and extract it to a folder of its own.
2. Put your game in the assets folder: an ISO, or the extracted files with default.xbe.
3. Run CMR2005.exe. The first start compiles the game's code for your PC; this takes a while and only happens once.
4. Press F1, or Back + Start on a controller, for the settings overlay.

Highlights

• Fullscreen, borderless or windowed at any resolution, with a steady 60 fps
• Higher render resolution, anisotropic filtering, FXAA or SMAA, brightness and gamma
• The game's own audio effects running on an emulated Xbox audio DSP
• Xbox, PlayStation and Switch controllers with hot plugging and rumble
• Texture packs and file overrides for modding
• Runs on Windows 10/11 with Direct3D 12, and on Linux through Proton

Known issues

• This is a beta: please report problems with the log from the logs folder beside the exe.
