Credits and licences ​

OpenSheep is released under the GNU General Public License v3.0. It contains no code, art, sound or data from the original game: everything is read from your own copy at run time.

Sheep is © 2000 Mind's Eye Productions / Empire Interactive. OpenSheep is not affiliated with them.

Published and community sources ​

  • Rob Northen Compression (RNC ProPack, method 2) — the unpacker ports the published algorithm.

Reference implementations ​

  • FFmpeg's libavcodec (LGPL 2.1+) — the Bink 1 video and audio decoder follows its structure and names. It is rewritten, not vendored, and its tables are read from your own binkw32.dll.

Tools ​

Ghidra, Capstone, AddressSanitizer and UBSan, Pillow, wasi-sdk, VitePress. Packaging, launchers and the release workflow come from OpenRF.

Runtime ​

gasm (MIT): gasm-run, the C SDK, and on this site @emdzej/gasm-host. OpenSheep is part of ENCORE, with its sibling reimplementations.

If we have missed someone whose work this project relied on, please open an issue — gaps in these credits are bugs.
