The aircraft's ground shadow is drawn with the Xenos CONSTANT_ALPHA blend factors, which dfd8b92a routed to D3D12's ALPHA_FACTOR family, an OPTIONAL feature that must be checked via OPTIONS13::AlphaBlendFactorSupported first. We never checked, so on a device reporting false the shadow's pipeline is rejected and, being indistinguishable from one still compiling, its draw is dropped from every frame in silence. Now the capability is queried, and where it is absent the pixel shader carries the blend constant's alpha in its alpha output so INV_SRC_ALPHA reproduces the same blend exactly.
Caution
This project is in early development. Expect things to not work quite right and there to be significant changes and breaking public API updates as development progresses. Contributions and feedback are welcome, but please be aware that the codebase is still evolving rapidly.
ReXGlue converts Xbox 360 PowerPC code into portable C++ that runs natively on modern platforms.
ReXGlue is heavily rooted on the foundations of Xenia, the Xbox 360 emulator. Rather than interpreting or JIT-compiling PPC instructions at runtime, ReXGlue takes a different path: it generates C++ source code ahead of time, an approach inspired by XenonRecomp and rexdex's recompiler.
Latest SDK builds and releases are published on GitHub Releases. Join the Discord server for updates and share what you have created.

Very Special Thank You:
- Project Xenia - Their invaluable work on Xbox 360 emulation laid the groundwork for ReXGlue's development. This project (and numerous others) would not exist without their hard work and dedication.
- XenonRecomp - For pioneering the modern static recompilation approach for Xbox 360. A lot of the codegen analysis logic and instruction translations are based on their work. Thank you!
- rexdex's recompiler - The OG static recompiler for Xbox 360.
- Many others in the Xbox 360 homebrew and modding communities whose work and research have contributed to the collective knowledge that makes projects like this possible.
