I'm not playing it much, i'm actually pretty bad at it, but it's totally fun. We mainly play aoc in wine, which works very well on local LANs but is crappy via internet, same without wine, which was the initial spark.

Nobody had suceeded in creating a clone with potential at 2013, so we took chances and are still trying to do it the "right" way.

I think the last year I played about 40h of aoc, so actually not that much, and haven't played aoe:hd yet.

I'd like to remind you that there's openage, a free engine for Age of Empires 2.

https://github.com/SFTtech/openage

It will be the future if you wanna accomplish things the original engine is incapable of doing, especially a sane mod API.

Help us make it more awesome :)

This is a free python gtk3 speed reading tool:

It needs a lot of polishing but may be a good start for you.

Think of the awesome applications:

* GNU Radio

* Pulseaudio mixing

* Desktop environment configs

* (your program here)

Terrain blending theory: https://github.com/SFTtech/openage/blob/b7af79f1d5bfcc986935...

Terrain blending implementation: https://github.com/SFTtech/openage/blob/b7af79f1d5bfcc986935...

I think we got the perfectly matching algorithm, we even get the same blending bugs with snow :D
