A remake of Warcraft: Orcs & Humans written in C.
This is a remake of the Warcraft: Orcs & Humans game created and published by Blizzard Entertainment in 1994. It pretends to be a complete implementation of the game using only the assets (*.WAR files) from the original game.
War1 is not an official Blizzard Entertainment product. It intent to be an enhancement of the original product with modern RTS features. You will need a copy of the original Warcraft: Orcs & Humans MS-DOS (or shareware) version be able to play War1. You can get it here Warcraft: Orcs and Humans. Warcraft and all graphics you see in the game are a registered trademark of Blizzard Entertainment.
Current features (this list is not complete):
Still to develop (this list is not complete):
You can check videos of gameplay and features as they are built here.
git clone https://github.com/acoto87/war1

(or build-gcc-win64.bat
for 64 bits builds).gcc
(usually comes with the build-essential
package).libx11-dev
package.build-gcc-linux.sh
.Since I'm not able to distribute the DATA.WAR file, which contains the original assets, there is a little process to get the game working properly (this applies if you don't own a copy of the game that you can purchase here Warcraft: Orcs and Humans).
If you own an original copy of the game, or just bought the game on GOG, find the file DATA.WAR and just copy and paste it into the War 1 folder, and execute war1.exe.
Or just start the game and there is an option within the game to download the file.
If you don't own the original game and want to try it with the demo version, just download the demo version of DATA.WAR. Or just start the game and there is an option within the game to download the file.
If you want to check were that file comes from, it's from here: https://archive.org/details/WarcraftOrcsHumansDemo. If you click SEE ALL in the DOWNLOADS section you will see a WCRFT.ZIP (View Contents) entry, just click on View Contents and there is a line with the DATA.WAR file of the demo version.
Here is my TODO list.
