Hi everyone,
I've just released UA Reforged, a free remaster of Urban Assault built on the OpenUA engine. Thank you for keeping UA alive all these years. This project wouldn't exist without OpenUA and this community.
What's in it:
- Mac (Apple Silicon) and Windows: rebuilt units, host stations and buildings, 3D cloud skies, shadows, trails and battle marks, restored videos and sharp menus
- Graphics presets from Original (the 1998 game, unchanged) up to Ultra
- Game controller support with a tank stick layout, invert options for tanks and aircraft, controller settings in the mission menu, and pause from the pad
- Meta Quest 3: the live battlefield as a miniature on your table, then jump into any unit. 90 Hz, with a New Look / Original switch

A note about your server: when a player has no game folder, the app offers a "Get the game" button that downloads the OpenUA Standalone Package from this site's Filebase, credited on screen. We never host or mirror the game files ourselves. If the admins would prefer a different link, or want it switched off, just tell me. I can change it remotely without a new release.
Bug reports and ideas are very welcome, here or on GitHub.
It's an unofficial fan project, not affiliated with Microsoft.
