Freespace 2 Open Source Code Project spotlight

**Pirate Neilsouth** · Aug 14, 2009, 12:31 PM

To fully experience the beauty and excitement of the mods you should start with FS2OPEN and MediaVP from the Source Code Project site. The first one will upgrade the game engine and allow you to install other mods and upgrades (shiny HD stuff) while MediaVP will make your game look like it was made in 2009! Just those two will enhance your gaming experience with this all-time great combat space sim.

EDIT: ok, I found the installer: http://scp.indiegames.us/bnr_installer.php

Anyone know if it works with 64-bit Vista?

The game works in Vista X64 as I have played it before now using that OS.

Anyone else able to download the FS2open build? The automated installer just hangs and the manual install package downloads as an empty zip file
