    Looks good and thanks for the work. I have encountered an issue when trying to get into the main menu... Seems to freeze for several seconds before loading into it. Is this something normal or have I missed something?

    1st off didn't t work on this i can't take credit for that at all im just sharing ..... the only issuse is when saving my game it takes a few secounds by thats it ... i think the delay is very normal as this is V.1 i bet with a few updates thing will get smoother ........... im hoping one day we can use the HD gta 3 remastered mod >>

    I just tried it and performance is actually quite good, you can even get it to run better than the PS2 version or at the same speed.
    I have also tried bigger draw distances and it doesn't drop all that much (though I do recommend to be in the middle or lower to get better framerate).

    OK, Users can use the PS2 Button Cheats..........but the Codes are Limited. Some reason, the Cheats will only work if you do not have to Input a L2 / R2 Button. So only the Face Buttons, and the L/R. I got the Faster Time to work, but so far, other Codes are not being Triggered.

    EDIT - OK......not sure how, but I got the Weapon Cheat to come up. I guess you have to learn to Time it just right

    Yeah, a HD Texture Mod would be perfect. Would also be nice if I could get VitaCheat to work with it.
    Anyone with VitaCheat - Edit the PARAM.SFO with a Hex Editor. At the bottom of the File, change the GTA300000 to any PCSx#####, then Install it. If it crashes, then VitaCheat must require certain Permissions the VPK is being Denied or something. Mario 64 Crashed when I did that. But once I Disabled VitaCheat, it worked perfectly.

    OK, I changed the PARAM.SFO to a PCSH11000 TitleID. Installed it, then ran it. Got to the first GTA3 Splash Screen, then Crashed. So no VitaCheat :(
    I swear, there needs to be a Cheat Engine that will also work with Homebrew

    OH well it's still a classic game but yeah Smoker1 loves his cheats! I'm a sucker HD texture packs.. But I haven't played Gta 3 since the PS2... But I finished both the PSP ones when they came out.. I was a massive psp fan back then... But still this is in early stages... They said you could use the Xbox version to make the graphics more sharp & crispy.. I just don't have much time.. Atm at least for a few days.. But I intend to try it..

    There's gotta be one.. Even the official game had cheats on all systems it should be easy.... I guess?

    Well, instead of doing it at the Main Screen, set the Controls to Classic In-Game, then enter the PS2 Codes. Should work after that.
    Also.....

    I will give that a go I just had to quickly copy all my files again.. As the HD Mod broke my game... Ive been looking for anyone who might have got the Xbox working on Ps Vita.. But I ain't found anything yet.. No videos or anything... But I will figure it out on Sunday and report back...

    You can do some mods that don't require changing the game's code (CLEO doesn't work).
    I can confirm the following mods work well:
    - Super Dodo: https://www.gtagarage.com/mods/show.php?id=3176
    - Ghost Town Bridge: https://www.gtagarage.com/mods/show.php?id=9599
    - Donald Love Building Stairs (v 1.2 adds stairs to Kenji's Casino and Police Helipad): http://www.peterjmags.com/gta3mods/mapmods/donstairs1.2.zip

    Edit: I will update this post as I keep testing more mods.

    Edit 2: I tried a mod that required rebuilding gta3.img and txd.img but it crashed. My guess is that any mods that will require moding txd.img will fail as this file is specifically generated for the Vita's GPU while these mods are for PC. I will need to do some more testing.

    Took around an hour to backport our re3 Vita port code to miami branch (aka Vice City port) and here's the result: https://twitch.tv/videos/785920612
    Game is already decent enough framerate wise however there are quite a lot of issues related to stuttering (caused by audio files) and crash

    They get Vice City on it, the Vita will be even better. Just have to get SA on it as well, and it will be complete for the Trilogy. Doubt we will be able to get GTA IV, but we can dream........

    GTA IV is impossible. even saying that SA could be hard.

    Vice Cty and GTA III if i remember correct is had the debug code left in the thing product so its easier to reverse engineer it. SA didnt have this, i think but i could be wrong tho.

    Yeah SA is what we all want! But... It just not happening as the code is my more complex.. It's what everyone on Twitter has been asking if possible... Seems that at the moment its impossible..... Oh well Vice City will still be another classic in Vita.. The music was so good on that game
