It’s pretty far along. Given the nature of the game it’s difficult to say if all the pathways are done. But alot of it was an in-house scripting language. Right now I am overhauling the lighting with realtime shadows and weather n stuff
Realtime shadows and weather on top of a decomp is ambitious. Lighting is usually where old PS2-era assets fight you hardest. Are you baking any of the static geometry, or going fully dynamic for the overhaul?
I decompiled all of the state systems for the story and gameplay mechanics. The rendering and drawing of the models is generic as I didn’t care to emulate the nuance of the ps2 architecture. I’m actually un-baking the shading from the scene and then relighting the scene dynamically.
