Death Rally (dRally)

Game: Death Rally → (DOS, 1996)

dRally: an open-source engine for Death Rally (Remedy Entertainment, 1996) that aims for a native port for Linux and BSD-based systems and also builds for Windows. It starts from reassembled code of the DOS executable: version 0.1 (May 6, 2019) was a “working reassembly” of the DOS game, and 0.2 (January 13, 2022) was a 64-bit alpha with Linux and Windows builds. It builds with GCC or Clang, make, and SDL2. It has no multiplayer yet, and the last change is from July 2023. Death Rally is free, since Remedy distributes it as freeware, and the README points to the registered Windows version offered by CHIP magazine, whose installer is unpacked with 7z. The project includes no game assets. Another project covers the same game, DreeRally, which reimplements the engine of the Windows version.

You needThe files of the Windows version of Death Rally, which is free (the registered version, which the README downloads from CHIP): ENGINE.BPA, IBFILES.BPA, MENU.BPA, MUSICS.BPA, and the TR0 to TR9 .BPA files, plus ENDANI.HAF, ENDANI0.HAF, and SANIM.HAF in a CINEM folder that a CDROM.INI points to, all with uppercase names. Plus Linux, BSD, or 64-bit Windows.
