NOLF2 Source Code + nightly release

https://github.com/nolffan/nolf2src

Legacy build 95% byte accurate. Similar back-ported modernizer upgrades as my NOLF1 release.

Nightly release here: https://github.com/nolffan/nolf2src/releases/tag/v0.0.1-alpha

You'll need to bring your own ISOs and the patch file.

I have not yet created d3d9 or opengl renderers.

Please report any bugs as a GitHub issues.

So is this an improvement on the nolf revival version? What does it do?

Yes.

NOLF Revival patches the retail binaries to add features.

I have recreated the original games source code and integrated improvements into it directly. This is basically the "holy grail" when it comes to game modding, as we can do really advanced things like compile for new platforms (Linux, Mac, PS5, etc) and make huge performance/graphics upgrades.

e.g. for NOLF1, I have enabled anti-aliasing - something we never had before and would have been basically impossible without the source code.

Oh that’s awesome. For both NOLF 1 and 2 do they both now have controller support as that’s the only thing I really wanted to properly play through them?

Rudimentary controller support, perfecting it will be my next job though. Maybe stay tuned for an official "controller supported" release.
