One of the most modable games ever if you know what you're doing. In the install I have on my pc the only original file remaining is the .exe, its closer to 20Gb rather than the original 750Mb. Unfortunately the old mod repository died years ago, I have some backed up plus the ones I wrote but its maybe 1% of what was out there.
One neat thing is how robust the engine is, throw it enough power and it has no issue with huge models, or breaking universe.

Awesome! Any way we could convince you to archive the mods somewhere? I'd seed a torrent or something for sure.
I don't have many of the raw mods anymore, but I do have a ton of modified versions in my install of the game. Mostly modified from me moving around hard points and adjusting parameters to improve balance. I could probably share my entire install somehow, I'm pretty sure it'll work out of the box on most computers at least up to Windows 10.
