Total conversions
FreeSpace 2 Open engine has lot of potential and it has been used to create various total conversions that basically replace all the files related to original FreeSpace 2 with their own files. Due to terms set in the release of the FreeSpace 2 source code in 2002 none of the total conversions using FreeSpace 2 Open engine may be used for commercial purposes.
