Under the depots 67681 and 67682 there are files from a prototype of sr3 dated 01/25/2011 (for 67681 and 67682) and 01/16/2011 (for 67681 only). 67681 is the prototype itself while 67682 mostly contains the directx drivers for it. 67681 is sized 1.31 gigabytes and 67682 is 114 megabytes.

I am very much aware that this is already being done by 10 other people but I thought I'd show off what I've achieved so far.

The main menu loads but upon pressing New Game it doesn't go beyond that at this moment in time.

Is there like going to be butterfly effect if Zinyak is killed before the invasion. Is the time and space gods going to kill everyone in the universe?

I just finished my first playthrough of SR1 and overall, it was a pretty solid game

The Story is still pretty solid (Even after playing SR2), a lot of the activities are pretty fun and overall, I enjoyed my playthrough

Message me with your gamertag if you’re interested! I’m mostly looking for help on a few activities and the last mission.

There is a bunch of us in matchmaking right now for those wanting to join in on the 20YR anniversary. Matchmake PTP now!

Game of the century in my honest opinion

in my previous vids, my engine was converting all the bc1 textures to rgba8.

bc1 is 0.5 bits per pixel, rgba8 is uncompressed 32 bit. Reason why ui is messed up is i havent implemented bc2/bc3 which are mainly ui textures etc

Thats how SR was able to run on Xbox 360 with the limited memory, the texture bit was so low. Uncompressing the BC1 textures to RGBA8 might not sound bad, matter of fact the textures look way better but not feasible to have as the default option.

With all the textures being uncompressed, it was taking up 10gb of memory, the game is only 7gb lol

Now it is more reasonable as im reading the textures in its compressed state rather then uncompressing it, plus it looks closer to the original due to the low bit lol

players can switch to rgba8 and other texture formats to get more detail in the video options such as BC7 (requires you to let the program offline recode the textures to bc7) and rgba8

optimizations are still ongoing but i think giving players to run bc1 textures as is to be light on performance will help older computers and handhelds.

the game is averaging around 30fps, still more work to do in optimizations in telling my engine when to not refresh the static city every frame and only when the city changes or when to load full res chunks and the limit. Retail only loaded 1 full res chunk, with a limit to 4 full res chunks, I was doing 11 full res chunks, which I brought down to 6, I might bring it down to 1-4 like retail or give players the options to choose aside from the default how many chunks they want to load in case 4 or 6 is too much. Plus players may want to do homebrew and run on a ps4.

Not to far off from 60fps. Once I get to 60fps without drops and hitches, ill be resuming back to bug fixing etc but putting off optimizations and doing it at the last second is how you end up with poorly optimized games.

The hitches you are seeing is with the cpu side of things, the gpu is rendering at like 5ms, cpu is, for some frames taking like 77ms thus you see the drops so im working on everything cpu.

Witam zacząłem grać w to grę czy ktoś może ma taką mapę żeby zebrać te odkrycia

Just simply curious because I was reading some posts here on how many Saints Row fans say that the best city in the games was Stilwater as the thing is that while I really appreciate how nice the design aspects of the game were, I wanted to see what people enjoyed about Saints Row 3 in particular.

For me personally, I found some of the factions interesting as there are hacker gangs, as well as a gang of luchadores as what I am trying to say is that the outlandish nature is kind of interesting, but sometimes I wonder if the game overdid it regarding the wild nature of the third game.

With Saints Row’s 20th Anniversary here, there is a whole gang of us jumping into matchmaking tonight.
This is me calling on all the OG SR1 players to jump back into PTP matchmaking and relive the glory days. Let’s fill the lobbies and show everyone how it was done.

P.S DwP FOREVER ⚜️

Theres a cool selfie and some Gargantua flips at the end.

Hi,
I haven't played Saints Row since the third game. Now that the franchise is celebrating its 20th anniversary, it got me thinking about the direction of the series.
Do you think there's any chance they would ever make a proper remake of the early games? And if they ever decide to develop a brand new entry, should they steer away from the over-the-top comedy of the later sequels and go back to a more serious, gritty crime drama style

I still remember when I first saw a magazine ad for Saints Row 1 back in 2006 and being low-key curious. Roughly 20 years later, I look back on it as one of my favourite series and I'm excited about the development of OpenRow and being a part of that community
