TNA iMPACT! Recompiled

An unofficial PC version of TNA iMPACT! (Xbox 360, 2008), made by statically recompiling the Xbox 360 game with ReXGlue. It does not include the game: you need your own copy, as a disc image (.iso) or as an extracted game folder.

Play

1. Download the latest zip from Releases and extract all of it to a normal folder, for example C:\Games\TNA iMPACT (not Program Files: the game writes its settings and logs next to itself).
2. Start TNAImpactLauncher.exe.
3. Under GAME FILES, choose your disc image (.iso) or the folder that holds default.xex. The launcher checks that it is the version this port is built from.
4. Press PLAY.

You need:

• Windows 10 or 11, 64-bit
• A Direct3D 12 graphics card with a current driver
• A CPU with AVX2 (Intel Haswell / AMD Excavator or newer; anything from the last ten years)
• Your own TNA iMPACT! for Xbox 360 (USA / Europe): a disc image (XISO or a full-disc dump such as Redump's) or the extracted game folder. Its default.xex must have MD5 b94f2c9cf46b9afffe05cfb0a1e24fb6; the launcher tells you if yours differs.
• A controller is recommended (Xbox controllers work out of the box).

Saves are in Documents\tna_impact.

What the PC version adds

60 fps	Matches and menus run at a steady 60 fps, with music and sound at the right speed.
Higher resolution	1280×720 (original), 2560×1440 (default) or 3840×2160 internal resolution.
Smooth self-shadows	Character self-shadowing renders as on the console instead of blocky acne (before / after, how).
Sharpening	AMD FidelityFX CAS on the final picture: Off, Low, Medium (default) or High (off / high).
Play from a disc image	The game reads an .iso in place; nothing is extracted.
Unlock everything	Every wrestler, arena and extra, through the game's own developer switches. Your game files are never changed (before / after).
Skip intro videos	Straight to the title screen.
Launcher	Home screen with the game's own logo and art (read from your files), settings, game files, logs.

All of these are in the launcher's Settings. They are saved in tna_impact.toml next to tna_impact.exe, which the game reads at startup:

Key	Values
resolution_scale	1, 2 (default), 3
present_effect	"cas" (sharpening on, default) or "bilinear" (off)
present_cas_additional_sharpness	0.25 Low, 0.5 Medium (default), 1 High
d3d12_adapter	-1 automatic (the card with the most video memory), or an adapter index
fullscreen, vsync, audio_mute	true / false
tna_unlock_all, tna_skip_intro	true / false (default false)

Building from source

You need Windows 10/11 x64 and:

• Visual Studio 2022 or later with Desktop development with C++ and C++ Clang Compiler for Windows (this gives clang, CMake, Ninja and the Windows SDK)
• Git
• .NET 10 SDK (for the launcher)
• Your own default.xex from the game (MD5 above)

git clone https://github.com/dotGrx/TNA-IMPACT-Recomp.git
cd TNA-IMPACT-Recomp
powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File scripts\setup-rexglue.ps1

setup-rexglue.ps1 clones the ReXGlue SDK at v0.10.0 into thirdparty\rexglue-sdk and applies this project's patches to it (see patches/README.md).

Put default.xex from your copy of the game in a new game\ folder (from a disc image, extract it with any XISO tool, for example extract-xiso), then:

build.cmd
launcher\build.cmd

build.cmd builds out\build\release\tna_impact.exe. The first build generates the recompiled code from your default.xex into generated\default (ReXGlue's rexglue codegen, driven by tna_impact_manifest.toml); that and compiling it take a while. launcher\build.cmd builds launcher\dist\TNAImpactLauncher.exe, which finds the game in out\build\release.

To make the release zip:

powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File scripts\package.ps1

It stages the game, its DLLs, the Visual C++ runtime, the launcher, README.txt and the licences under out\release\ and zips them. It refuses to package if any game file or generated code would end up in the zip.

Repository layout

Path
src\	The PC side of the port: app setup, settings defaults, crash log, scripted pad and intro skip (tna_input_script.cpp), unlock everything (tna_unlock_all.cpp), diagnostics
tna_impact_manifest.toml	ReXGlue recompiler manifest: function seeds, setjmp/longjmp
generated\rexglue.cmake	ReXGlue's CMake glue (the generated code next to it is not committed)
patches\	Changes to the ReXGlue SDK, applied by scripts\setup-rexglue.ps1
resources\	The exe icon
launcher\	The Avalonia launcher (.NET 10)
release\	README.txt and notices that go into the release zip
scripts\	SDK setup and release packaging

Scripted pad (testing)

While the game runs, lines appended to tna_input.txt next to tna_impact.exe are played as controller input (A, START, DOWN 3, WAIT 500, HOLD A 1000, STICK 0 1 500; see src\tna_input_script.h). Useful for repeatable menu navigation and screenshots.

Credits

• ReXGlue SDK (BSD-3-Clause), the recompiler and runtime, with GPU emulation derived from Xenia (BSD-3-Clause). The self-shadow fix ports Xenia Canary's Xenos sample positions.
• AMD FidelityFX CAS (MIT), for sharpening.
• Avalonia UI (MIT) and the Inter typeface (SIL Open Font License), for the launcher.
• The WWE All Stars Recomp project, whose approach this port follows in several places.
