FringeSpace
Freespace 2 mod | TBD
This project is designed to duplicate, as closely as possible, the "feel" of Tachyon: The Fringe, to the Freespace 2 game engine.
Tachyon was always plagued by bugs, hacking, and lack of updates. This mod is an attempt to rectify most of the egregious problems, and to update the playing experience for Tachyon fans.
Status: We are in the process of remodeling the entire ship list from Tachyon. this is a time-consuming process, yet will result in a vastly superior visual result. Please visit our image gallery to keep tabs on our progress on that front!
As the project gains momentum, we'll be putting more information up, and sharing our progress with you. Should you wish to help, please check the Help Wanted section, and we'll consider your application carefully.
We are ESPECIALLY looking for modelers, texturers, and coders - especially for LUA and C++.

Well, it's been a few months, but we're still plugging away.
We're recently finished several ships, and have them entirely ingame. We have 6-7 other ships at the modeling stage, but untextured as of yet; namely, the Gar, the Dart, the Demon, the Mace, the Nighthawk, and two Drone ships . I'm also proud to announce the Poseidon is at model complete stage now, as well - the latest masterful work by Carl Gonzalez, our Lead Artist.
She's a great ship, and I can't wait to fly her! He says that the next up will be the reworked Archangel.
In other news, we have the Claymore model in the pipe, as well as several environmental models.
We'd also like to extend a warm welcome to the talented Ed Ainsley (Features Coder), the indefatigable Nutritious (Music and Sound), and enigma (Modeler) to the team - and welcome our good friend Killjoy (aka Sonic) to the team; an old and new friend - and now teammate - of ours.

Oh yeah. I'm watching this one!
just be sure you guys credit who made that crappy skybox
<-
That's not gonna stay in for the release :D I did modify one of your test maps, though! Thus the skybox.
Hey,
Just wanted to let you know I'm really looking forward to this release!!
Glad to hear it :D
We are too!
Hi!
I'm new here, and while browsing the site, I noticed this. I honestly didn't think that anyone would ever remake, mod, or otherwise expand upon Tachyon. Being one of my favorite games, you can see that this was rather a let down. However, finding this has sparked hope in me, and although I'm not in any kind of a position to help out, especially considering I'm not really a good modeler nor am I a fantastic texturer, I just wanted to say, DON'T LET THIS DIE! I'd really love to see how this turns out.

We definitely won't!
Glad you're looking forward to it. Trust me, we are too :D
You guys have GOT to get the leviathan ingame asap.
We have a number of ships in game already.
More are on the way and we just assembled a minelayer.
The Levi will be worked on shortly with the other Bora craft.
Thanks for stopping by.
