OpenStrike

F/OSS Desert Strike and Jungle Strike reimplementation.

Status

Animation

The project is currently on the early stages of development, and is not yet playable. What it can offer right now:

  • An utility to unpack Desert/Jungle Strike .DAT files
  • Game graphics viewer
  • Viewer for complete game levels
  • A game skeleton which currently demonstrates an ability to load and render some sprites and animations

Building

Dependencies:

  • cmake
  • SDL2

The project also uses libSDL2pp, C++11 bindings library for SDL2. It's included into git repository as a submodule, so if you've obtained source through git, don't forget to run git submodule init && git submodule update.

To build the project, run:

cmake . && make

Running

To run any of binaries produced by the project, you need original Desert/Jungle Strike .DAT files (further referred as file.DAT)

Unpacker

To view all entries in .DAT file:

% util/unpacker/unpacker -l file.DAT

To extract them into current directory:

% util/unpacker/unpacker -x file.DAT

Graphics viewer

util/gfxviewer/gfxviewer file.DAT

Use arrow keys or Page Up/Page Down to navigate through graphics and Q or Escape to close the viewer.

Map viewer

util/mapviewer/mapviewer file.DAT

Use arrow keys to scroll the map, +/- to zoom and Q or Escape to close the viewer.

Game

src/openstrike file.DAT

Use arrow keys to control the chopper, Z/X/C to fire. That's all it actually does for now.
