- Reported result
- Works. This is the directory's source-based outcome classification.
- Independent confirmation
- Not reported.
- Human work and limitations
- The project uses a static recompilation approach rather than emulation. Users must provide their own game files from an Xbox 360 disc. The project is actively maintained with recent commits addressing Steam Deck performance and frame rate stability.

### Original sources

## What was done

A static recompilation project that translates Xbox 360 F.E.A.R. PowerPC code to native x86-64, enabling 4K resolution and high frame rates on PC while retaining original console logic, AI, and physics.

F.E.A.R. 360 Recompiled is a static recompilation project that allows the Xbox 360 version of F.E.A.R. to run natively on PC. The project utilizes the ReXGlue SDK to translate PowerPC code to x86-64 C++ ahead of time, while a game-specific runtime replaces the Xbox 360 environment. The project retains the console's original game logic, AI, and physics. Graphics are handled by the fear-nx Vulkan renderer, which was modified to support resolution scaling and fix menu corruption. While early play-tests documented a 90 fps limit to avoid tracer code breakage, recent commits report successful play-tests at 120 fps without tracer or physics issues. The project includes support for PC texture packs and a collection launcher for F.E.A.R. and F.E.A.R. Files. Development was assisted by Claude Code, and the project is currently exploring Steam Deck performance optimizations. Linux support is planned but remains untested.
