Looks like the Tiberian Dawn code is Windows too (so C&C Gold / W95) I was kind of wishing it was the 1995 DOS version source code! (also, no Dune 2000)

Emporer: Battle for Dune was their first 3D RTS and I personally loved the gameplay, story, and soundtrack. I very much hope it will eventually be open-sourced.

  I can play it back to back for days. It's so enjoyable and unique.

  Yeah, I wonder why Emperor: Battle for Dune is not part of the open source since it's basically an earlier version of the General Engine. Would be weird to have the source code for that but not for Emperor.

  I really liked that game, it had a lot of strategy to it and a decent story. The multiplayer had a common key bug that made it hard on some maps. The atreides airdrones could fly at the edge of the map and not be targeted, and take out the harvester carryalls / and other air units There were claims of a flame tank bug that could target any unit that was mentioned on the forums much much later, but I don't know if the details were ever revealed, I never figured it out so I guess its just theoretical..

Dune 2000 - countless hours spent! Ah!

There's Dune 2000 assets in the Red Alert repo. I'm not sure how much of it is there. https://github.com/electronicarts/CnC_Red_Alert/blob/main/CODE/ENG/MESSAGE.TXT https://github.com/electronicarts/CnC_Red_Alert/blob/main/CO...

  I think those are holdovers from Dune 2, if you search for Dune you'll find explicit references to Dune 2 stuff.

The 1995 source code was effectively released when they open-sourced the Remastered collection 5 years ago. The remastered collection was simply a wrapper to make them Windows-compatible via DLLs (basically). https://github.com/electronicarts/CnC_Remastered_Collection/tree/master/TIBERIANDAWN https://github.com/electronicarts/CnC_Remastered_Collection/...
