About
Lego Racers is a 1999 Lego-themed kart racing game developed by High Voltage Software and published by Lego Media for Windows, later ported to Nintendo 64 and PlayStation. OpenLGR is an enhancement and loader for Lego Racers, based on OpenSWE1R. It combines x86 CPU emulation with a WINE-like implementation of the Windows functions the game uses, patching open-source code in at runtime, but still depends on the original binary and data. It is unplayable and the repository is archived.
How it differs from the original
Rather than replacing the game outright, it aims to run the original code on other platforms and gradually replace it with open-source code, without changing game behaviour.
Getting started
Build it with CMake, then copy the resulting binary into your Lego Racers game folder as a drop-in replacement and run it; it needs OpenGL 3.3.
Additional notes
- Readme note
- Most of the README was copied from OpenSWE1R and the author notes it only partially applies.
