I'd like to remind you that there's openage, a free engine for Age of Empires 2.
https://github.com/SFTtech/openage https://github.com/SFTtech/openage
It will be the future if you wanna accomplish things the original engine is incapable of doing, especially a sane mod API.
Help us make it more awesome :)
- danso 11y agoThanks for sharing! I actually thought this was going to point to 0ad [1]...which because it deals with ancient warfare, I had just assumed it was sparked by AOE2 community. Good to know of openage. Out of curiosity...how much do you still play AOE2? I guess that would implicitly indicate how far along openage is...but I was also interested just how much someone has to love a game to rebuild it from scratch :) [1]https://github.com/0ad/0ad https://github.com/0ad/0ad
- thejj 11y agoI'm not playing it much, i'm actually pretty bad at it, but it's totally fun. We mainly play aoc in wine, which works very well on local LANs but is crappy via internet, same without wine, which was the initial spark. Nobody had suceeded in creating a clone with potential at 2013, so we took chances and are still trying to do it the "right" way. I think the last year I played about 40h of aoc, so actually not that much, and haven't played aoe:hd yet.

- hnnew 11y agoIt appears you can build here https://github.com/SFTtech/openage/blob/master/doc/building.md#prerequisite-steps-for-mac-os-x-users-os-x-1010-yosemite https://github.com/SFTtech/openage/blob/master/doc/building....
- listic 11y agoIs openage ready enough to allow you to actually play games?
