Homebrew RELEASE reVC: Reverse engineered GTA Vice City - Switch port

[memodac531]

You can erase reVC.ini to make everything default. As for the game... Well, buy it and you won't have any problems, im not sharing any copies.

Could you please tell, what version of GTA Vice City are you using? I use the original one from Steam but I think there might be so discrepancies with Gog version or the version from the site that can cause problems.

Because the ReVC uses various mods you need to have a 1.0 copy of the GTA-VC.exe or GTA_VC.exe. Google GTA Downgraders, and you'll find a link to I believe a GTA forums that will have said downgraders. Follow the instructions, and then appropriately follow the instructions further for the ReVC.

Hello, this is the long awaited follow up to re3.
This is reVC for the Nintendo Switch, a reverse engineered/decompiled version of GTA Vice City.

Question, pertaining to the texture conversion that happens, is there a size constraint, or anything preventing me from manually replacing the .dff and .txd files within the gta3.img file for more high quality textures? I would like to replace textures for a high quality tommy vercetti or other various characters.

Anyone else getting crashes on Re3?
Specifically the missom Espresso-2-GO and Escort Service.
Espresso mission crashes when I go to another island, on the bridge
Escort mission crashes when entering Shoreside Vale thru the tunnel, nearly emerging

I'm getting a crash whenever I do the mission "The Chase". Game also occasionally crashes when going to the safehouse. Game runs fine otherwise, any ideas as to why i'm getting crashes?

For those complaining about performance issues. Just get GTA 3 - SA on android for the switch. I've played all 3 including china town wars with minimal issues.

 

[M7L7NK7]

Yeah but the point is being able to play it on HOS

Delete the reVC.ini file then launch it while docked.

A bit late but finally tried it and that woked! Thanks a bunch <3

Only unpatched units can run android on Switch.

Haha, so weird, i've completed 15 missions and haven't experienced a single crash. Only some minor bugs like weird camera angle when leaving a car or some small flashes right after loading a save. Other than that my experience was flawless.

Seems like the version you use is the main reason

Does the Steam version need downgrading to work without crashes?
