What you need: Your own Phantom Crash (Europe) Xbox disc image, trimmed XISO or full Redump; optionally your European S.L.A.I. PS2 disc image (SLES-52940) for the S.L.A.I. content pack. Windows 10 or newer with a Direct3D 11 graphics card, and about 3.5 GB free.

This is a native Windows port of Phantom Crash, Genki's 2002 mech combat game for the original Xbox, rebuilt in modern C++ with SDL3 and Direct3D 11. The repository and download contain no game files, executable, text or Xbox firmware: the game is installed from the player's own disc.

It plays at any resolution in a window or fullscreen, with widescreen 3D and a 4:3 or widescreen HUD, a frame-rate cap from 30 to 144 or unlimited, optional dynamic lighting and shadows, SMAA and an "original softness" look. The keyboard and mouse can aim as well as controllers, and every control can be rebound.

It adds LAN co-op, experimental split-screen co-op for up to four players, a live RUMBLING in which each area's contest fights on while the player chooses, and the weapon stats the original hides. With the player's own European S.L.A.I. disc, that game's content can be added too.

## How to set it up

1. Download the Windows x64 zip and extract it.
2. Run `Start Game.bat`. On first start the game installs from your disc image, and doesn't need it again.
3. For LAN play, allow the game through the firewall on private networks (UDP 29641 and 29642).
