Genma Recomp: an Xbox port with REA investigations of Warlords HD
Genma Recomp statically translates the original Xbox Genma Onimusha executable to C++ for a native Windows port and experimental Linux build. Separate investigations use REA, Ghidra and Frida to examine controls and loading in the Onimusha: Warlords HD executable, with findings documented alongside the port.
