FreeSpace 2 Source Code Project
Some notable original mods and campaigns have been created, such as "Wings of Dawn" which takes place in an anime-style world, and "Blue Planet" which offers a continuation of "Freespace 2", telling of a civil war between Earth and the GTVA. "The FreeSpace Port", sometimes called FSPort, ports the original "Descent: FreeSpaceThe Great War" to the "FreeSpace 2" and SCP engine with many graphical enhancements, and serves as a base for many mods set in the FreeSpace: Great War era, such as "Shrouding the Light" and "Awakenings". "Silent Threat: Reborn" similarly ports the "Silent Threat" expansion for Descent: Freespace into the Freespace 2 SCP engine.
Dust II
Dust II has existed since 2001 and has been subject to imitation, spin offs, and disapproval from the gaming community. In February 2017, the map was removed from the Active Duty Competitive Pool in "Global Offensive", a group of maps played in professional competitions. The map was removed in favor of a revamped version of a map titled Inferno. There was an immediate backlash to this change from professional players and community members; according to Peter "ptr" Gurney, Valve "[took] out a map that's balanced and put a map in that literally has at least 4-5 problems I can think of right away". Fabien "kioShiMa" Fiey, another professional "Counter-Strike" player, said, "Why is everyone so surprised. Looks logical that [Dust II] is removed, the only one that has not been redone??", referring to the earlier reworking and refinement of other "Global Offensive" maps before this change.
