What it recreates
Translates the original Xbox binary into native C, building on xboxrecomp, burnout3 and the author's DOA3 port.
What’s different
Adds windowed/borderless modes, 4:3 or 16:9 display, internal scaling up to 1440p and controller settings.
What you can use today
netplay-v1.0.1 supplies an experimental Windows x64 ZIP from the netplay branch. Both players need this same release; place DOA2U.exe beside an assets folder containing your own original Xbox disc files, including DOA2.xbe. The default-branch README still describes online as planned, so this is a separate prerelease channel. Matches have visual and mode-specific issues. The README claims MIT, but a complete project license has not been verified; RemakeList has not tested netplay.
