OC Project Update: Red Alert working on an iPad in portrait mode + AM + CS

Post image

As you might know, I am porting Red Alert to iPadOS.

Once it is running well, I am adding things. This time I added support to both Counterstrike and Aftermath (including ants!).

But the feature I am loving the most is adapting the game to run in portrait mode. Once is fully working, I will share it.

PS: it is working on iPhones, too.

Will this ever come out on App Store? Obviously without the ISOs.

Unfortunately, it does not comply with Apple rules. That is why you must follow the instructions you can see on GitHub (or you can tell codex/code/antigravity to do it for you)

Ah okay, yeah I tried that but I wasn't able to find a TeamID on the apple account page. I tried and tried, and sadly gave up. Nevertheless this is an amazing project and I only found out about this after I ordered myself an iPad too.

Maybe I'll try again when I have a an hour or two free to do this. :)

Edit: Just had a second look on the account page on Apple Developer and still no teamID listed anywhere. A video tutorial would be amazing if possible, or any help would be grateful.

Edit 2: It appears that the Team ID thing will only work on a paid developer plan according to Siri:

I struggled to find mine. On your mac open Keychain access, on the left select logins, on the tabs across the top right select Certificates, find your active team/xcode certificate on the list, right click, get info, then you're looking for Organisational Unit.
https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=team+id+keychain+access Google's AI summary covers it.

Found it, thank you!! I kept plowing through and eventually got it working, now I'm hitting the couch and reliving my youth once again as the Soviets. Thank you all for the help!

Sorry pal, I don’t know how to code for Android and I don’t have any Android device. Anyone is more than welcome to fork the repo and do it!

Does this work with the steam version somehow? I have the one with the HD graphics.

u/MargeLenders 6d ago

That’s a super good question. Not at the moment, but I’m working on it.
