Burnout Paradise statically expects certain thread handle values based on how many objects it knows it is allocating ahead of time. From this, it calculates an ID by subtracting the thread handle from a base handle of what it expects the first such thread to be assigned. The value is statically declared in the executable and is not determined automatically. The host objects in the handle range made these thread handles higher than what the game expects. Removing these, and allowing 0xF8000000 to be assigned, allows the thread handles to fit perfectly in the range the game expects. It is not clear what handle range the host objects should be taking. For now though, they're 0-based rather than 0xF8000000-based.

Quite a few real games run. Quite a few don't. See the Game compatibility list for currently tracked games, and feel free to contribute your own updates, screenshots, and information there following the existing conventions.
Disclaimer
The goal of this project is to experiment, research, and educate on the topic of emulation of modern devices and operating systems. It is not for enabling illegal activity. All information is obtained via reverse engineering of legally purchased devices and games and information made public on the internet (you'd be surprised what's indexed on Google...).
Quickstart
See the Quickstart page.
Building
See building.md for setup and information about the
xb script. When writing code, check the style guide
and be sure to run clang-format!
Contributors Wanted!
Have some spare time, know advanced C++, and want to write an emulator? Contribute! There's a ton of work that needs to be done, a lot of which is wide open greenfield fun.
For general rules and guidelines please see CONTRIBUTING.md.
Fixes and optimizations are always welcome (please!), but in addition to that there are some major work areas still untouched:
- Help work through missing functionality/bugs in games
- Reduce the size of Xenia's huge log files
- Skilled with Linux? A strong contributor is needed to help with porting
See more projects good for contributors. It's a good idea to ask on Discord and check the issues page before beginning work on something.
