A bit challenging since none of the repositories I looked at actually compile. EA says that if you remove (or refactor!) the dependencies it might work but I don't know if that's high enough confidence to dive in.

Sorry for not mentioning you initially and thank you Sir for making it happen! I obviously love classical RTS and playing them since original C&C, but there are special place in my heart for Generals exactly because ot was different game. And for me as game developer seeing this game in a sad state make me sad. I feel it does have as much potential as AoE2 and now more people can try to bring new life to it.
That's awesome to hear. The Generals and Zero Hour community is coming together like never before right now, it's amazing to see that these games are about to get a new lease of life!

#325OpenRA did it better :D If you haven't seen it yet https://www.openra.net/ is worth your time. https://github.com/OpenRA/OpenRA I have many fond memories of playing openra as "LAN" game on the gaming weekends we used to have in a few open source groups I've been in. I can't recommend "saturday gaming" enough, for anyone involved in any foss community, set up a recurring gaming weekend! You get bonus points if you mak…
OpenRA is all well and good...until you want to play Tiberian Sun, or Red Alert 2 I'm still a little salty as someone who donated to the project in 2013 to add support and it's still not even at "alpha test"

I'm also disappointed there's no OpenRA2... That was without a doubt my favorite RTS!

If it's making you salty.... I don't think it's fair to call that a donation.

But watching them just drill away at every pixel of Tib Dawn and Red Alert 1 is like watching the Sistine Chapel be repainted as the world's most intricately beaten dead horse
Was anyone really asking for a "C&C in-game wiki"?

Holy shit, Renegade. I had struck that from memory. God, I remember trying to play Renegade with my brother and all I can remember was a buggy nightmare. Also having flashbacks of extreme vitriol for gamespy.

The word you're looking for is "gift." That is a gift.
