Falcon 4.0 (1998) had a source code leak after Microprose went bankrupt and just like Doom it also had many community forks.

Its still alive and kicking today as Falcon BMS.

Oh man, I remember building a new PC for Falcon 4.0. I think I still have the manual binder somewhere. I didn’t actually stick with it for that long in the end - I should check out what the community has done in the meantime!
