About this project
Rearmed explicitly builds on LasVola’s recompilation and LucasPicoli’s function names. Its documented additions include 1×–8× resolution, wider camera/HUD layouts, PCSX2-format HD textures, L3 dash, roulette options and an optional Xavier character model.

Compatibility
Requires Windows 10/11, a modern graphics card, Visual Studio 2022 C++ Build Tools, Python 3.10+ and your own exact USA God Hand SLUS-21503 ISO. The graphics path uses PCSX2’s Direct3D 11 hardware renderer; that does not make it a whole-console emulator.

Documented support and independently tested compatibility are different. AllRecomps has not run these games.
Development progress
The project reports stages 1–2 and stage 3 through Gorilla Mask/Mad Midget Five. The 60 FPS mode applies timing patches to keep menus, roulette and prompts at the PS2 speed. This is a documented feature, not an independently verified timing result.

Known limitations
Stages 4–8, ending, credits and extras remain unplayed on the port. With the PCSX2 renderer the in-game F1 controls screen cannot currently draw; use the launcher’s Controls tab. Shader compilation can pause the first start and first effects. No ready release was listed.

Getting started
Follow this fork’s build guide rather than copying upstream commands blindly: generate/extract modules, build VU microcode, configure GODHAND_PCSX2_GS and GODHAND_SDL_INPUT, build and prepare characters. Launch Start-God-Hand.cmd or godhand.exe; settings/saves remain in build/port/bin.
