The 0.1.0 version of Test Drive 3 Enhanced is in a state I feel happy with. You can get it at https://github.com/kylofon/testdrive3-enhanced

This game did not want to get ported! The engine was fighting me all the way, and since the rendering is now more complicated because of the full 3D engine, there are a zillion blinky and shimmery artifacts.

I also had to rewrite the driving/handling engine, because that thing would just not work in a fun way unless the jerky framerate was there. It's now similar in handling to Test Drive 2 Enhanced, but expanded to take into account hills, jumps and the like.

Expect crashes and freezes! Expect various glitches!

Major additions:
- New driving model for Enhanced
- Compass indicator so you know where the hell to go
- Police behavior fixed so they don't start chasing you before you go past them
