Project Summary
Currently in very early prototype/groundwork stages, OpenBFME seeks to be an open source RTS engine, capable of playing games made with EA's SAGE engine, such as the Battle for Middle Earth series and some of the Command and Conquer games. (First target is to get it working with BFME 2) This will allow for playing said games on Linux (I'd say OSX as well, but I don't have one to develop on) and online without LAN emulation tools. It is currently nowhere near playable, with only a small amount of groundwork done on a filesystem abstraction layer for .BIG archives and a parser for INI files. I'm putting it on GitHub early mostly because I tend to neglect it otherwise, but I'm open to getting help from anyone interested as well.
