> Nice, I loved Freespace and Freespace 2 - but haven't looked at the mods.

Do check out FreeSpace Source Code Project[0]. They've upgraded the code and assets to make the game look great on current machines. AFAIK it still requires the original game for the Single Player campaign (easy to obtain through GOG).

As for mods changing things, I highly recommend Battlestar Galactica: Diaspora Mod[1]. It's even better than it looks on the promo[2], and you can do most (all?) of the tricks Vipers did on the show. And you can fly a Raptor too. Single Player storyline is well made, with great voiceovers, and doesn't break continuity with the show.

Oh, and I totally second 'Fjolsvith - FS/FS2 is the best space combat game ever!

Cheers, appreciate that. I've lost the physical installers for all my old games but will try to check it out. Looking forward to it!
