If you check my repository of mods for the game - https://github.com/krystalgamer/spidey-tools

You can see bug fixes and new features. There's just a moment where bigger features become unfeasible to be done this way. It's the same dedicated fans that implement new features and fix bugs that then move into decompilation projects.

I meant that all the time and energy you're using on decompilation could've been used more productively if original source code was made readily available by the companies that produced the games.

The journey is it's own reward, my son.

I disagree.

There will be times where a game source code has been lost in the void... and then you get these godsend people who are able to reverse the game and recreate it.

We need these talented people.

I meant that companies should release source code for 20+ old games, especially if they’re not sold or actively developed anymore.
