THIS MONTH IN OPENSAGE - An Unofficial Update on the Progress!
First - What is OpenSAGE? Right now, installing the BFME games is hard, and massive improvements are limited because of how the game was built. If you've heard of BFME Reforged, they're creating a brand new game - But OpenSAGE is creating a compatible version of the game. Think of the original BFME like Internet Explorer, and OpenSAGE as Google Chrome. It will revolutionize the original games!
- Command and Conquer - Open Source Engine Recreation Project, OpenSAGE is in development!

You can run the windows version via wine or proton. For a native versions, not yet but you might want to keep your eye on https://github.com/TheAssemblyArmada/Thyme though it is still a way off being portable to other platforms.

"Please insert the game CD" Zero Hour
Due to the memory limits of 32bit apps, and the badly-managed memory of the SAGE game engine used in Generals/Zero Hour (memory leaks), it's most likely impossible without Out of Memory errors occurring. Thyme and OpenSage are open-source projects that are aimed to fix SAGE's faults, but I don't believe anything truly workable is available as of this reply.

Command and Conquer - Open Source Engine Recreation Project, OpenSAGE is in development!
We also have https://github.com/TheAssemblyArmada/Thyme in development which is being developed along the same lines as the recently released GTA reversing project and targets ZH. It's even playable as it hooks into the original game engine to fill in what is missing.
If this was posted on the back of the recent news about GTA being reimplemented, this project isn't really the same thing, https://github.com/TheAssemblyArmada/Thyme is more like the recently released GTA reversing project and targets Zero Hour. It's even playable as it hooks into the original game engine to fill in what is missing. OpenSAGE is a new engine in development intended to play the same content as SAGE.
