<h1 align=center>GTA: Chinatown Wars - Nintendo Switch port</h1>

This is a wrapper/port of the Android version of Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars (v4.4.243).
It loads the original game binary, patches it and runs it.
It's basically as if we emulate a minimalist Android environment in which we natively run the original Android binary as is.

This is a based on [max_nx](https://github.com/fgsfdsfgs/max_nx) adapted for CTW

### How to install

You're going to need:
* `.apk` file for version 4.4.243. There is no separate `.obb`: all the game data lives in the APK's `assets` folder.

The file [can be obtained](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/11012976/how-do-i-get-the-apk-of-an-installed-app-without-root-access) from your phone if you have a copy of the game installed.
It can be opened or extracted with anything that can extract `.zip` files.

To install:
1. Create a folder called `gtactw` in the `switch` folder on your SD card.
2. Extract **the contents of** the `assets` folder from your `.apk` to `/switch/gtactw/` (this includes `game.pak`, `dxt.bin`, the `.gxt` text files, the `.mp3` music and the `.mp4` movies). You can skip the `flutter_assets`, `dexopt` and `rockstar` folders.
3. Extract `lib/arm64-v8a/libGame.so` **and** `lib/arm64-v8a/libopenal.so` from your `.apk` to `/switch/gtactw/`.
4. Copy `gtactw_nx.nro` into `/switch/gtactw/`.

### Notes

This will not work in applet/album mode. Use a game override (hold R on a title) or forwarder.

Save games and the game's own settings (`Adjustable.cfg`) are stored in `/switch/gtactw/`.

The port has an extra config file, located at `/switch/gtactw/config.txt`. It is created when you
first run the game:
* `screen_width` / `screen_height` — render resolution; `-1` picks 1280x720 in handheld and 1920x1080 docked
* `language` — `0` English; other values select the other localizations (FR/DE/IT/ES/JA)
* `touchscreen` — `1` enables touch input in handheld mode
* `hide_touch_hud` — `1` hides the on-screen touch buttons while a controller is being used
  (touching the screen brings them back, like the game's own input mode switching)
* `show_fps` — `1` draws a small FPS counter in the top left corner
* `trilinear_filter` / `disable_mipmaps` — texture filtering tweaks
* `xbox_layout` — `1` restores the original Xbox/positional face buttons; default `0` uses the Nintendo A/B/X/Y labels

### How to build

You're going to need devkitA64 and the following libraries:
* `switch-mesa`
* `switch-libdrm_nouveau`
* `switch-sdl2`
* `switch-mpg123`
* `switch-ffmpeg`
* `devkitpro-pkgbuild-helpers`
* [openal-soft](https://github.com/fgsfdsfgs/openal-soft)

```
source $DEVKITPRO/switchvars.sh
make
```
