Stratagus 3.3.3 for AmigaOS 4

Stratagus is a port of the engine in version 3.3.3, which makes it possible to play the game Warcraft 2 from Blizzard Entertainment natively on the Amiga under AmigaOS 4.

The archive contains an installer with which it is possible to install the game directly from the PC CD without pre-installing it on the PC. At least for the Warcraft 2 Classic PC CD, for the Battle.Net CD or the Gog version it is necessary to unpack a file with a Windows tool, but with the Classic CD you can install directly on the Amiga.

Warcraft 2 is one of the most famous strategy games of all time, practically the prequel to the famous MMO ‘World of Warcraft’.

In addition to the base game ‘Warcraft 2: Tides of Darkness’, the add-on CD ‘Warcraft 2: Beyond the Dark Portal’ (already included in the Battle.Net CD and Gog version) is also supported.

Stratagus is based on the current ‘Latest Git’ version of the Stratagus project (version 3.3.3). In contrast to an earlier implementation, 3.3.3 offers the following features:

• Iconic game music and not just sound effects (the music files are only installed with the Warcraft 2 Classic CD and the Battle.net CD, but can be copied manually afterwards when using the Gog version).
• The game's video sequences (video sequences not available on AmigaOne A1222)
• A functional level editor
• Numerous bug fixes

Of course, the localisation of Warcraft 2 into different languages is also supported.

Stratagus (http://stratagus.com/stratagus.html) is under GPL licence, the source code of the Amiga version will be integrated into the github of the PC version in the foreseeable future, but is also available as a request by e-mail (see readme for details).

The minimum requirements for Stratagus are:

• A computer with AmigaOS 4.1 FE Update 2 or higher
• Special executables optimised for the respective platforms (x1000, x5000, Sam 440, Sam 460, G3 and A1222) can be selected during installation.

Note: This version only offers the single-player campaigns, without multiplayer.
