# Moto Racer Recomp

> Moto Racer Recomp is an unofficial, open-source (MIT) native port of the 1997 PC game Moto Racer (Delphine Software) for macOS (Apple Silicon), Windows 10/11, Linux and the Steam Deck. It is a static recompilation: the game's original Windows executable from the player's own GOG copy is translated to C and compiled into a native program on the player's computer. No emulator and no Wine are used. It adds true widescreen (16:9 and 16:10 up to 3840x2160), gamepad support with analog triggers, a longer draw distance and frame rates above 60 fps (120, 144 Hz displays).

Key facts:
- Requires the player's own copy of Moto Racer from GOG (offline installer `setup_moto_racer_2.1.0.11.exe`). The project and its downloads contain no game code or assets.
- Install: download the package for your system from the GitHub Releases page, put the GOG installer in your Downloads folder, start the program. On the first start it unpacks the game and builds the game code locally (a minute or two, once).
- Packages: `MotoRacer-macos-arm64.zip` (macOS 12+, Apple Silicon), `MotoRacer-windows-x86_64.zip` (Windows 10/11 64-bit), `MotoRacer-linux-x86_64.tar.xz` (x86-64 Linux with glibc 2.29+, Steam Deck).
- Graphics: the game's Direct3D renderer runs on the GPU through SDL_GPU (Metal, Vulkan or Direct3D 12); the original software renderer is still available.
