An open-source, from-scratch game engine, built compatible with RenderWare — the engine behind GTA San Andreas. Bring your own game files (or a total-conversion mod) and it streams the real world, models and physics straight into the browser, with no install.
Unofficial, non-commercial fan project. Not affiliated with Rockstar Games or Take-Two.
Dev notes and progress - in /blog.
A TypeScript / three.js engine for RenderWare assets (DFF/TXD models, COL collision, IMG archives, IPL/IDE world streaming) with a Rapier-physics player and vehicles — compatible with GTA San Andreas and its mods / total conversions. See the architecture overview and the per-feature reference in docs/features/.
Contributions are welcome - see CONTRIBUTING.md for setup, the dev workflow, and conventions. First-time asset setup: docs/development/getting-started.md.
