Remember what happened to re3/reVC? Yeah, this won't lead to much.

[–] bruhduh@lemmy.world 31 points 11 months ago (2 children)

Source code of re3/revc is still available, community can preserve this leaked code as well

Legality is not an issue here. We are not exactly respecting copyright law anyway.

Not that I'd want to respect it for companies like Rockstar. They rigged a good game to turn it into a cash cow.

Which game are you talking about?

[–] Matriks404@lemmy.world 0 points 11 months ago

Source code of re3/reVC is just a source code for GTA3/VC.

Project(s) to run GTA3/ViceCity on modern systems. Entirely reverse engineered and "legal", but Rockstar got their GitHub's taken down.

Yeah, the problem with stolen source code is that you can't really use it for much except maybe developing modding tools, and even then you can't say out loud that you used the source and didn't reverse engineer shit
