OpenCMR2 1.0

First release of OpenCMR2, a native port of Colin McRae Rally 2.0 (PC, 2000) built on the CMR2Decomp decompilation.

The packages contain no game data. You need your own copy of the original PC version: on first launch, choose the folder of your installation.

Each package has a .sha256 checksum. The Linux packages are built on Ubuntu 24.04 and need a distribution of similar age or newer. The macOS package is not signed: after extracting it, run xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine OpenCMR2-macOS-arm64 once.

Features

• Runs natively on Linux, Windows and macOS, with SDL3 and a Vulkan or Metal renderer
• Intro and country videos, menus, stages and network races over LAN
• SilentPatch's improvements built in: widescreen resolutions with the correct perspective, configurable field of view, and high frame rates without changing the game speed or the physics
• Vehicle physics verified bit for bit against the original game at 30 to 240 FPS
• Multiplayer over LAN and the internet using UDP instead of DirectPlay
• Fullscreen or window, switched with Alt+Enter
• Folder dialog on first launch to locate the game installation
• Fixes for some original bugs, such as German in the language menu loading Spanish

Everything tested so far works. Gameplay on Linux ARM64 and macOS has not been tested yet, and Windows has been tested under Wine. If you find a bug, please report it.
