To run OpenRA, several files are needed from the original game disks. A minimal asset pack can also be downloaded and installed by the game.

The following lists per-platform dependencies required to build from source.

Windows

To compile OpenRA, open the OpenRA.sln solution in the main folder, or build it from the command-line with MSBuild.

Copy both the native DLLs from .\packaging\windows and the CLI images from .\thirdparty to the main folder.

Run the game with OpenRA.Game.exe Game.Mod=ra for Red Alert or OpenRA.Game.exe Game.Mod=cnc for Tiberian Dawn.

Linux

To grab the bundled CLI DLLs type make dependencies. To compile OpenRA, run make all from the command line. Run with either launch-game.sh' or mono --debug OpenRA.Game.exe'.

Type 'sudo make install-all' for system wide installation. You can then run from the openra shortcut.
