# Saints Row: static recompilation of the Xbox 360 game

> Version 0.1.0 statically recompiles Saints Row for the Xbox 360, NTSC-U title ID 545107D1, to Windows with ReXGlue. It boots through the logos and menu, and New Game reaches Player Creation and then Stilwater on foot, with graphics, audio, and controller input. The first mission, combat, vehicles, and Load Game are untested. The installer is SaintsRow-Installer-windows-x64.exe. A checkout can use Setup.cmd and Play.cmd. The first build takes 30 to 60 minutes and needs about 20 GB free.
