Team Fortress: Source 2, a fan project seeking to port Valve's classic shooter to the Source 2 engine, is officially dead. The news was announced following a DMCA takedown demand from Valve that blocked the group's GitHub repositories. It joins Portal 64, which was also canceled less than a week after the release of its "First Slice."

The takedown was the "nail in the coffin" for the project, the announcement read, which had already have been on shaky ground before Valve stepped in.

"While we were discussing the project's future internally recently, we already came to the conclusion to stop the development of the project due to the current state of the code being unusable anymore with s&box's recent major engine changes, and that we overall moved on from it," the announcement read.

"Sadly, this means this DMCA takedown is the nail in the coffin. We cannot bring it back and we've hit Valve's attention, it seems like they definitely don't want us to use their IP (which is totally fair and legal from them). From the bottom of our hearts at Amper, it's been an honour to grow this project with all of you and the incredible team behind, we cannot be thankful enough for all your support and enthusiasms over the last 3 years. We're so happy we got this far."

Horse shit! I was just bragging on Valve for letting the mod community alone to do their thing in the Capcom DRM thread and they go and pull shit like this?
