- MechWarrior 2 fans and game-preservation developers
- Worth noticing
- The site distinguishes runtime review fixtures from newer work still under integration review, and says game data must come from a legitimate copy.
Field notes
The project describes a Rust implementation with wgpu rendering and replay-based development checks, and separates a Classic reference mode from an Enhanced path. Its gallery includes cockpit, company, and world views; some are labeled staged runtime fixtures using test data, while newer terrain and VR work remain under review. The page also specifies keyboard, mouse, or standard gamepad controls for flying.
