Mind over Recomp 0.2.2-alpha.4

on GitHub

Mind over Recomp is an unofficial, fan-made native PC port of the Xbox 360
game Crash: Mind over Mutant. It is not affiliated with or endorsed by
Activision or the game's other owners.

⚠️ Alpha: playable, but expect bugs, crashes and rough edges. Keep a
copy of your user\saves folder.

You need your own disc. The installer builds the game on your PC from
an .iso of your own Xbox 360 disc of Crash: Mind over Mutant (USA).
No game files are included.

Windows only for now. Linux comes later; until then, Linux players
stay on 0.1.0-alpha.

What's new in 0.2.2-alpha.4

One installer fix on top of 0.2.2-alpha.3.

• The SDK's libraries download without Git's shell. On some PCs the
  step "Finishing the SDK's libraries" (or the SDK download before it)
  stopped with "fork: Resource temporarily unavailable" and exit
  code 254, even with no antivirus installed. The tool Git uses for
  submodules is a script that runs in Git for Windows' own shell, and on
  those PCs Windows stopped every program that shell tried to start. The
  installer now fetches each of the SDK's libraries with plain Git
  commands that don't need that shell. A download that was stopped goes on
  where it stopped. Thanks to lionessbzzz
  for the logs in #14.
• If another Git step ever meets that error, the installer's message
  says what usually causes it and what to try.

Install or update

• New install: unpack the .zip anywhere and start
  Mind over Recomp.exe (if Windows warns about an unknown program:
  More info → Run anyway). Pick your .iso and a folder (~15 GB
  free, an NTFS drive, not OneDrive), then Next: install. The first
  build takes a while. Then start Crash Mind over Mutant from the Start
  menu.
• Already on 0.2.0, 0.2.1 or 0.2.2: open Mind over Recomp from the Start
  menu. It offers the update.
• Your install stopped at "Couldn't find cmake", "file INSTALL cannot
  find", "Python was not found" or "fork: Resource temporarily
  unavailable"? Start this version's
  Mind over Recomp.exe and install into the same folder: it carries on
  where it stopped.
• Coming from 0.1.0: don't use the old launcher's Update button.
  Follow Updating from 0.1.0-alpha
  on the 0.2.0 page.

Download: MindOverRecomp-0.2.2-alpha.4-windows-x86_64.zip (Windows 10 / 11,
64-bit). release.toml is only for the update check; you don't need it.
