Completely off topic, but why there always has to be a brainlet like this one questioning the credibility/speaking up against native ports, while also shilling for emulators? It's a "It works on MY machine!" tier reasoning, and makes no sense whatsoever.

So the games in this leak are:
Warcraft 2 for PS1 full source code
Air Force Delta for GBC full source and betas
Garfield Kart for 3DS betas and design stuff
Tron 2.0 for PC devbuild (which they used for porting the game to Xbox?)
Hot Wheels (it's either World Race or Stunt Track Challenge) for PC debug build
Star Trek: New Worlds for PC (I think it's this one based on the credits, someone correct if I'm wrong)
Star Trek seems like an interesting one, it was developed by the guys behind Zeewolf 2 and the credits included here are much the same as that game and the same company is listed as developing in some places on the internet, but it apparently got into trouble during development and the devs changed before the end. Seems only the guys at the new company that got it are actually listed anywhere on credits on the internet with not a mention of the devs listed in the files of this build.

Wargus is a buggy mess that while cool is lacking a lot of basic functions.

It's technically not a source port. It's an engine recreation that someone made after finding a symbols file in the Japanese version of the PS1 port. That was supposed to have been removed but was left in by accident.

It's on my website, yeah. It has nothing to do with Nintendo, it's just a job. I had sent these files for archival to someone. When I leaked Garfield Kart, they assumed the whole archive had leaked, and thus, added it to Wikipedia. It would've been released eventually, it was just a bit early.

The password in case was because the files were protected if using the torrent or download all.

Downloading 1 by 1 bypasses it and it works perfectly.
Sadly the game's 3dfx patch is broken, but ddraw works thanks to dgvoodoo with GDI hook, but the game itself is still unstable, also it doesnt work well with stick imputs, it needs a patch to fix the game speed.

It's never been confirmed exactly how this source leaked. Articles at the time when it released said that it was GPL'd. However it was taken down really fast and the page was never archived. It's been speculated a former employee released it publicly on their website and legal immediately took it down. At the time Monolith was split up into two separate companies and it was around the same time that the sister company that just handled engine licensing was being shut down. I've asked several Monolith employees about it and none of them really know the story since it happened so long ago.

Yeah there's a bunch of references to SourceSafe too, but I don't think this has full version history or whatever (check out the prjdiff.txt file and DLG/OLDDLG.C)
Also the .BAK files seem to be binary/executable code (peeked at one, and it had references to bss, data, sdata, etc at the start, and the first 3 bytes are LNK in ascii)

I've not looked through it much at the moment outside of looking for goofy stuff. Here, moopy.tga

Depending on what a porgrammer wants out of his source port, it may mandate that most or all of it is rewritten, using the original source code as a model. Expanding modding capabilities, for instance, may mandate a rewrite of certain functions related to loading code.

Using anything gleaned from this source leak to build a source port would be a violation of copyright law. Read this article: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cleanroom_software_engineering
If blizzard could ever prove beyond reasonable doubt that a wc2 source port used *any* knowledge/code/ANYTHING gained from this leak, the devs would be up shit creak so hard

No doubt. I only posted a possibility. If I wanted to make a Warcraft source port, I think I'd rather just rely on reverse engineering techniques. Obviously it's far more time consuming, but it's less risky legally. Of course, it's not really a source port at that point.
