Hope there are still some others digging in to this too. Have been digging round lately to try find some way to bork the gangs AI so they don't do anything each week and try get a 'Sandbox' like mode that way, but that's not seeming straightforward.Ī sandbox me vs the city mode is something I've always wanted ever since I played the game from the cd many many years ago. I did manage to compile the code to convert the xtx files to txt, but I'm not a programmer, so I'd have needed one application for each file conversion. If there is a cap on the maximum number of live cases before the game crashes maybe there's a way to limit cases going to court to just murders or other serious crimes.įantastic to have found this thread and the files. So, anyone interested in sharing this? Hey johnmisil, can I ask how you managed to (half)fix the court bug? It's something that's bothered me about the game for years. I've got the budget too, just trying to find a freelance developer to work with. Others have tried (Omerta etc) but they didn't come close. I've actually put together a spec to create a new modern game 'inspired' by Gangsters: Organised Crime. So, anyone interested in sharing this? Funnily enough I'm in a similar position: I loved this game, although it had some flaws in its design. Nevermind, if iI can bring a bit help about those questions, I am your man ! :) So, anyone interested in sharing this? I just would like to know how to do those things, but haven't got enough knowledges about it (programming, codes. Johnmisil: Has anyone tried some reverse engineer of this game? Im not interested in making a full remake, though something like this would set the bases for a project that approaches Gangsters as OpenTTD approach TTD. The isometric tiles from the streets (seems to be) a bit harder and I (may) be facing difficulties there, same goes to gangsters sprites.Īs I understand this (may) be doable under fair use of the software: analyzing how it works for educational, non-commercial purposes. The top maps and GUI graphics (may be) fairly easy to extract. * It (may) be possible to extract graphics from data files. The result (would) have been that all crimes were processed (even extortion) and the lawyer got a full rollodex after a few weeks, and the game (would) have crashed. * I (may) have tried to fix the cases not going to court bug in 1.4, without success. * I (may) be able to enable some debug log that explains how the IA prepares for the week, whether a crime is processed or not, case dropped, etc. In summary, this is what I (may) have been able to do:

Has anyone tried some reverse engineer of this game?Įvery year I go back to gangsters and play around with it, its like a recurring obsession.
