Valve releases Team Fortress 2 source code, opening door to completely new fan-made games


Team Fortress 2 maker Valve has handed over the game's full client and server code to fans.

Team Fortress 2 maker Valve has handed over the game's full client and server code to fans, encouraging them to "change, extend or rewrite" TF2 in any non-commercial way possible. The code is now available via a "massive" update to the Source SDK [Software Development Kit], Valve announced last night, making "anything from small tweaks to complete conversions possible". For content creators, modders and fans, this means completely new TF2 games can be put together - as long as they're released for free.
