The entire engine that runs h&d 2 and mafia is on github for 16 months

Well I needed to clarify that I found out that by accident

Here's the link : https://github.com/sugeedarou/LS3D

Well the story goes like that I was just searching for something on github or to be more specific codes for my engine physics and lighting so that popped up in my recommendation

And then I figured out that's the actual engine that runs h&d 2

Due to fake titles I made research and found out that the entire engine was sitting there waiting for the right decision for upgrading and using

Who is and what even happened there?

The guy that posted this is offline but he made some modification to the engine and separate both the original one and the mod

You people could use this I thought it would be helpful to post it

Might be in the future reverse engineer the game and have the source code from the engine wich is changing everything.

Good luck with that

Which one is this ? H&D2 or HD
So this is the code for Engine DLL file ?

Who wrote all comments in english ?
In the game, comments are in Czech...

Code of the game exe file would be useful... :cool:

The first question is: h&d 2 and mafia
The second question is: yes it's
The last question is :i really don't know
We could use the entire engine and reverse it an have the source code of the game heck even the explanation of the games

But have you compiled this code to make DLL ? For testing.
And this code interacts with openGL

My Delphi has C++ Builder as a choice, so if i add it to current install i could try to import this LS3D engine code.
I guess there will be something missing and different so some corrections has to be made...

Few weeks ago i found this video series of coding simple C++ graphics engine :)

This is not the LS3D engine from Ilussion Softworks.
This is a small engine written by sugeedarou, and he just called it LS3D.

Well that's a confusion right there?
Then where's the illusionsoftwork engine?
If so we will delete this thread
Do anybody know how to contact them to get that source code from them we suffered waiting for 17 year's it's time to wake up and stand up for our rights.

Yes this doubt has crossed my mind...

1. Reason: English comments ??? Where they came from. Everywhere in the orig. scripts there's CZ comments
2. Reason: Not much code for a high res 3D game engine

There is a way to know if it is or if its not:
It should be possible to find actual data and commands sent/received by game exe to/from DLLs from memory !!
Then compare them with functions found in this LS3D engine code.

@mr. 47:
2K Games is the successor of Gathering. It is their product. Maybe you should call there and ask if they sell the code.

@Stern:
See the screenshots of this engine. It is rudimentary. There are no lights, sounds, game menu, configs, AI scripts, etc.. I can guarantee that it is not the code that you want ;).

How you rev. engineer that ?
From memory ?
It might take more than 2 month...

It's false alarm and I will be forced to delete this thread post and make another one but the next on will be about how we could get the src code of h&d2

I forgot to tell it even might take more than 2 months and the point here is how (how Factor)

By the way how to delete this thread?
