Giants Recompiled, 0.3.0-beta.3 (test version).

  • Fewer surprise crashes: the port didn't handle a jump the games use to recover from their own small errors (C's setjmp/longjmp). Where a game recovered fine on the console, here it went on into shutting down and crashed. All six games now recover the way the console does.

The easy way: install Core of Light, the launcher. It sets this game up from your disc and keeps it up to date by itself.

On its own: run GiantsRecompSetup-0.3.0-beta.3.exe and point it at your own Xbox 360 disc (an ISO file or an extracted folder). It's not signed, so Windows may show "Windows protected your PC": "More info" > "Run anyway". The README says which disc version it needs.

The game's data (graphics, sound, levels, movies) doesn't come with it: the setup takes it from your own disc.

Problems: F4 > Game > "Report a problem" in the game, then a new issue.
