I /”ported/” HVX and HVY from Jak X to Jak 3. Also made modifications to CWI in Jak 3, which has the Zoomer code (and a lot of other stuff), so everything could fit. Poor Jak 3 didn’t really like all these things, but in the end I managed to get it working. I thought it would be funny to use the Zoomer here, so I didn’t give up.
Both HVX and HVY seem to be made of multiple other levels, but in lower quality. I am not yet sure why these /”duplications/” exist in Jak X, but eventually I will look into it. Maybe the lower-quality but larger levels are used for split screen? We will learn one day.
EDIT: The lower-quality bigger levels are indeed used for split screen, which makes a lot of sense, considering that the two players can be on opposing ends of the racetrack.
This took a lot of effort. But at least now we know that any level should work mostly (it is not flawless, and actors will never work). I just really need to work on a tool to make this faster. Right now porting just one level takes hours of manual tedious work.
