Death Rally (DreeRally)

Game: Death Rally → (DOS, 1996)

DreeRally: a reimplementation of the Death Rally engine (Remedy Entertainment, 1996) that recreates the Windows version and replaces DeathRally.exe. Its plans are multiplayer, mods, and a Linux port, and for now it offers OpenGL rendering (-gl) and smoothing (-smooth), per-language translations (-lang), windowed mode, sound and effects that can be turned off, and a simple mod system: a mods/<name> folder with a config.txt and a files folder with modified game files, enabled with -mod. It has no multiplayer yet. Its two versions, 0.1.0 (April 22, 2019) and 0.2.0 (December 20, 2019), are pre-releases, and the last code change is from September 2021. It builds with Visual Studio 2010 to 2017, with MinGW, or on Linux with make. Death Rally is free, since Remedy distributes it as freeware, and the README points to the full Windows version; the project includes no game assets. Another project covers the same game, dRally, which starts from the DOS executable’s assembly.

You needThe files of the Windows version of Death Rally, which is free (the full version, which the README links from ModDB): ENDANI.haf, ENGINE.BPA, fmod.dll, IBFILES.BPA, MENU.BPA, msvcr71.dll, MUSICS.BPA, SANIM.haf, SDL.dll, and TRX.BPA, in the folder where the DreeRally executable goes in place of DeathRally.exe. Plus Windows; on Linux you build it.
