@foosel "To use the compiled binaries, you must own the game. The C&C Ultimate Collection is available for purchase on EA App or Steam."

Isn't this more like source available than open source? ๐Ÿค”

@NeunMalKlug @foosel it is indeed open source, but only the code. All the assets for graphics and sound are missing. As a result you need a source for it. And here comes in the comment, that you have to buy the game to access those. But a few years ago EA released an older version of C&C as freeware. Maybe it could work with this too.

@tobias_etzold @foosel thats a point.

the cnc ultimate pack for 6โ‚ฌ is virtually freeware ๐Ÿ˜‚

@NeunMalKlug @foosel almost ๐Ÿ˜‚
