OpenMM1

This project has been superseded by Open1560, so it is recommended to use that instead.

OpenMM1 is an open source re-implementation of Midtown Madness 1.

This project is a bottom-up rewrite of Midtown Madness 1, using the original binary to provide functions that have not been implemented yet.<br/> The intention is to allow the fixing of bugs, implementation of new features and porting to platforms unsupported by the original.<br/>

Installation

1. Download and install the Visual C++ 2017 Redistributable.
2. Download the Latest Version and extract the files directly into your MM1 directory.
3. Download dgVoodoo 2 and extract DDraw.dll and D3DImm.dll from MS/x86 into your MM1 directory.
4. To play, run OpenMM1.exe
