An in-progress matching decompilation of Chrono Cross for the PlayStation 1. It currently targets the Japanese release (SLPS 023.64), extracted from the Chrono Cross: Radical Dreamers Edition remaster.
Getting started
You need to own a legal copy of Chrono Cross: Radical Dreamers Edition and copy its disc data archive into the project's disc folder; the README walks through Steam extraction and says console versions need extra steps.
Known issues & limitations
- The project is an in-progress matching decompilation.
What you need to run it
Modding & tools
- Functions are matched with decomp.me (gcc 2.8.1-psx plus maspsx) or locally with objdiff.
Additional notes
- Why remaster
- The original PlayStation release uses complex custom disk sectoring that is hard to extract, while the remaster runs the unmodified original Japanese release from a zip-like archive that can be extracted directly.
