Saw this post on AssemblerGames today that got my attention: Mortal Kombat 3 (PC/PSX) and Mortal Kombat Trilogy (N64) source code

Which explains that someone posted MK3 source code archive on 4chan: http://boards.4chan.org/vr/thread/5117527

OK VR/Troopers, today is a great day and I expect you all to enjoy it, too. No snarky comments, no "Why would you want that," no "OP is a Fag..." Well, OK, you can call me a fag...

I am about to undertake the preservation of stuff. Important stuff. Before we go and preserve it publicly, I wanted to make sure it's quietly available elsewhere so if we burn to death, it's not gone forever.

And so, I give you this: https://www.dropbox.com/s/2a2hw8l7o2nnmdf/Mortal Kombat Sources Dump.tar.gz?dl=0

This giant 900 MB compressed file contains the following sub-compressed archives:

MK3_sound.tar.gz
MKTRILOGY_source_N64.tar.gz
MK3_source_windows_RC2.tar.gz
MK3_source_windows_final_7_29_96.tar.gz
MK3_runtime_windows_7_9_96.tar.gz
MK3_build_windows_1_4_96.tar.gz
MK3_source_playstation_4_8_95.tar.gz


What are these things? Think about it.... What do you think they are? I got these from the original developer. We'll be doing a more formal preservation, but I want everyone to grab em and spread em so they don't get lost.

Want to build this stuff? Gonna need a system no later than Windows XP and an old ass version of Visual Studio.... If someone can get me a working XP code, I can get these built in a VM.

Oh, and I don't know how to build N64 games, so MK Ultimate might be tough to do.

Don't make me mad I did this. Do something cool with these assets. The sounds alone should yield some sort of awesome song.

So the super exciting part!!!

This archive also includes the MK3 arcade / wolf unit source code :D 8o :D 8o

Been digging through this the past hour, so cool to take a peek at game code from 1995, along with some rather funny and amusing comments in the code

Pretty damn cool to see stuff like this get released after so long. The Doom guys have always been good about releasing their code, it's interesting that there is apparently some Doom related stuff in this too from what folks are saying on AG.
 
Will this help with making new U45, U47, and U57s? As those customs are prone to failure.
 
See attachment, found this gem which didnt make the final cut. It's an audio sample: MONKEY BUSINESS!!!

No, the game code is not the logic code for those parts. :(

Can we use this to make a fighting game engine like Mugen?

I was thinking more like MK3 Trilogy for Wolf Unit :D

Is the arcade source hidden away somewhere? The one I downloaded has:

47M MK3_source_playstation_4_8_95..tar.gz
53M MK3_build_windows_1_4_96.tar.gz
53M MK3_runtime_windows_7_9_96.tar.gz
125M MK3_source_windows_final_7_29_96.tar.gz
190M MK3_source_windows_RC2.tar.gz
151M MKTRILOGY_source_N64.tar.gz
305M MK3_sound.tar.gz

This is the dream. I don't know though, seems like a LOT of work, and we don't have the source code for MKT either...

The archive that was leaked includes the MKT source code for N64 ;)

You are correct that is would be a fair bit of work, but having the blue prints makes this kind of project 1000x easier.
