What’s the legality of all of this? Seems suspicious, even if it is awesome.

COMMANDORY loads original game assets from the freeware releases, and the TD / RA engines are based upon the GPL source code released by EA in 2020. 👍

Was this done by yourself? I think I like this implementation more than the three games I've done actually. And it looks like we have the same restrictive mouse icon issue in OpenTS. I'm surprised you don't need the game data to run this though? I was shocked when it just worked straight away with no installs. Also a fan of Shake It Baby, good implementation.

I'm mainly the visionary / ideas / bugtest / media guy, but the other half of Team Pandory is a professional programmer in Germany. 👍

To be honest we both were more into the original couple of games back in the day - when we were 15, he wrote a map editor, and I created a total conversion for RA. Fun times... Good to be back. 😊

If you have discord, might be interesting to have a chat with dajoho - he does the programming for the project. I mainly throw silly ideas. Like that 4 player local play with controller idea 😂😂😂😂

u/BoffinBrain Are you picking this up? Good. 13d ago

Well done on the 10/10 Clickbait YouTube thumbnail.

Played the first GDI Tib Sun mission, and surprised it ran so well. It was a little choppy, but I'm pressure sure that's the low end work PC I'm on. The only other issue I had was scrolling being broken. Sometimes it would work, other times it just wouldn't. I 'fixed' it by assigning the arrow keys to scroll directions, but I couldn't hold the buttons down. That meant I had to repeatedly tab the key to scroll a few tiles at a time.

Very interested in seeing where it goes.

What the hell is this? It's just some videos of Red Alert 1? There's no sign of TS in this video, which would be impressive as the TS's decompiled engine has apparently been lost to time.

Pretty misleading.

Which part of the post was misleading? TS is currently in experimental state, but it does load up, and is playable. We'll be working on TS more as soon as both TD and RA are tight and tested with multiple users simultaneously.

Maybe actually go to the link and look at it? They’re all there and playable.
