Based on public documentation; full builds and playthroughs have not been tested. Project documentation 
What it recreates
Supplies a launcher, recompilation configuration and SDK patches for ReXGlue. The game code is translated on the user’s computer. This is not affiliated with EA, the NFL or the NFLPA.
What’s different
Adds keyboard and XInput controller support and a guided local setup. Author tests cover Play Now and short Franchise/Superstar sessions; online features do not work.
What you can use today
v0.1.0 is a prerelease setup executable, not a ready-to-play game binary. Setup needs the supported game files, internet access, Git and Visual Studio 2022 Community with C++ tools, and about 10 GB build space. Requires a fast CPU and Direct3D 12 rasterizer-ordered views (ROV). The author’s low-end PC could not run matches playably; only two PCs were tested. Shader stutter, some visual/audio issues and unsupported online services remain.
