OpenDUNE is a mod forĀ Dune II: Battle for Arrakis (also known as Dune 2: The Building of a Dynasty), created by OpenDUNE Team.

Description:

OpenDUNE is an open source re-creation of the popular game "Dune II", originally made by Westwood Studios, and released by Virgin Entertainment. It attempts to re-create the original game and apply modern technology to it to allow it to be run natively on most operating systems. It also fixes the bugs.

It requires the .PAK files from the original game, and uses the same graphics and sounds. You need to own the original game separately, so there is no copyright violation. Note that OpenDUNE will also reproduce the anti-piracy check (Dune 2 manual required).

Installation & Running

Extract OpenDUNE. Copy the original Dune2 1.07 data files (including dune2.exe) to data/. All three existing versions of the Dune 1.07 data files (eu, hs and us) will work, but only with the eu/hs data files the French language will work, and only with the eu data files the German language will work. Start 'opendune'.

Additional options may be specified using an opendune.ini file located in the data/ directory, in the current directory or in %APPDATA%\OpenDUNE (on Windows) or ~/Library/Application Support/OpenDUNE (on Mac OS X) or ~/.config/opendune (on Linux/FreeBSD) or B_USER_SETTINGS_DIRECTORY/opendune (on Haiku). All options must be in an [opendune] section.

OpenDune vs. Dune Legacy

There are two major open-source versions of Dune 2. Which one is best for you depends on what you want. OpenDUNE's aim is to allow playing the original game on modern OSes without emulator, and allow programmers to build on the engine. However, the OpenDune project itself adds no updates besides some minor bug fixes.

The alternative is Dune Legacy, which is project that aims to not just reproduce the original, but also improve it. Because of that it implements features like multi-unit select, right-click to move or HD/widescreen resolutions.
