TA3D is a free project whose aim is to remake the engine of Total Annihilation but in real 3D, with perspective, camera management, hardware acceleration ...! TA3D is developped under linux(if you don't know what a true Operating System is click here). But there is also a windows version.
So TA3D is a remake of Total Annihilation engine under GPL(that means free...) which uses original game files (means it doesn't run without *.hpi or *.ufo files from the original game,the demo or a mod). The goal? Make this great game run better on modern hardware, and bring a new features(original AI is a bit classic(too easy), units models might be more detailed,...).
