Seeing as I'm on the team, best promote this!
Fortress-Forever is a free Source Mod that builds on the classic game TFC and is more of a true successor to it than TF2. It is not just TFC:Source!
Changelog:
GENERIC / Misc stuff:
* Walls no longer apply friction to grenades, concmaps should be possible now!

Class-specific changes:
Scout:
* Caltrops and radar have been removed. Instead they have a buildable jump pad on +attack2. Jumppad is invincible - det it by double right-tapping. You can only carry one, similar to a detpack. They last 60 seconds before auto-detting. Any team can use them.
* Players can only use a jump pad once every second, so they dont get multiple triggers.
* Max conc speed after using the jumppad
* Reduced conc time for Scout down to Medic level
* Scouts now don't take fall damage.
Sniper:
* Sniper rifle base damage has been reduced from 42 to 35
* Radiotag duration reduced from 60 to 15 seconds.
* AR damage down from 7 to 5.5
Soldier:
* RPG damage radius increased slightly (from 108 to 125).
* RPG reload time decreased from 1.0 to 0.9 seconds.
* Nail grens tweaked a lot.
* Soldier special now quickswitches between shotgun and RPG.
Demoman:
* Blue pipe fuse timer dramatically decreased (from 2.5 to 1.1 seconds). Pipetrap explosion radius increased from 125 to 150.
Medic:
* Right click now discards medpacks for teammates to use (thanks mirv). These take 10 cells to use and the medic slowly recharges cells over time. Medpacks last 5 seconds before disappearing so the person you are throwing to has to pick them up soon (you can't leave a supply for your defenders for example)
HWGuy:
* New HW AC System! : Overheat removed (!), rof changed from 0.06-0.12 to 0.05-0.15. cof changed from 0.10-0.15 to 0.05-0.30.
* New AC clamp system - hold right mouse to clamp, let go to unclamp. Also fires when you are clamping so you can hold right mouse to clamp + fire (you dont have to hold mouse1 and mouse2)
