Active reimplementation; no percentageThis qualitative status is shown exactly as entered and is not converted into an estimated percentage.
PROJECT OVERVIEW
What this effort is rebuilding
The Sims 2 — OpenTS2 is tracked as a native runtime port. The original Windows program runs on a modern host through a compatibility runtime that replaces platform services and translates graphics calls. It requires a legally obtained game dump, and Decomp 720 does not treat playability as a completion percentage.

No. Decomp 720 tracks an independent community project maintained by LazyDuchess. The original game and its assets remain the property of their respective rights holders.
Does the project source include the game?
Usually not. Reverse-engineering projects commonly require contributors or users to supply legally obtained game data. Check the linked project source and its own setup instructions before building anything.
How does Decomp 720 verify updates?
This page checks the linked public GitHub repository no more than once per day. It only replaces the tracked percentage when a clearly labeled, machine-readable or README progress figure is available.
