Warcraft II HD
Oh well.. I'm working on this project for 2 months now and though I'll do it all by myself but all help is well received :)

Its a Warcraft II clone i m working on. All this time most of my efforts were put in keeping the FPS as high up as possible, and now that i have a menu that is fully working and a somewhat acceptable in-game interface and map displaying technique i thought i might share what I have been doing in hope of getting some help or at least some people who test it.

Sidenote: The source lacks proper commenting so.... uhm... sorry for that.. you may have to think a bit harder on what different functions and classes do :D :)

Here is the source: https://github.com/lori2001/Warcraft-II-HD

P.S: I probably also lack proper programming techniques as I'm new to SFML and even programming in general :D ( please don't go too hardcore on me in the comment section)

Also some screenshots:

That's interesting. I'm quite into retro stuff, emulation and exotic tech but not into Blizzard games at all... To avoid copyright worries most emulators and games/game engine recreations just require the user to own the base game and install on top of it, provide the CD when installing the recoded modern version, etc. sometimes shipping with placeholder assets too.

@FRex I honestly don't think blizzard cares abut W2 anymore. Its not really bringing them anymore money so I don't think they bother if someone tries to make a HD clone.. Anyways, I will take down the source at any request of theirs.
