'''Red Eclipse''' is a total conversion of Cube 2, featuring entirely free art under CC BY-SA 3.0 or a compatible license. It features many modes like deathmatch, free-for-all, and capture-the-flag. The game has a sci-fi theme and has gameplay similar to Quake-based arena games, with the notable omission of pickups. The game uses OpenGL.

In the past there was a possibility of the game going commercial, so some files were labelled ''Omitted'' to default to the included license. It was decided that the default license will be CC BY-SA, so from then on Red Eclipse is completely libre <ref>[http://redeclipse.net/wiki/License License details] from the Red Eclipse wiki</ref> and is now included in Debian main.

Red Eclipse has been converted to the much more advanced Tesseract engine. Tesseract adds features such as dynamic lighting, improved mapmodel support, improved specular and normal map rendering, support for day/night versions, and more. An introduction to Tesseract's features can be found at [http://tesseract.gg/README its website].

Mario Castelán Castro: /* Non-free dependencies */ new section

==Deletion review==
This would seem to contain non-free stuff, see the very first item of https://github.com/red-eclipse/base/blob/master/doc/all-licenses.txt [[User:GNUbie|GNUbie]] ([[User talk:GNUbie|talk]]) 15:16, 18 March 2016 (CET)
: They specifically say here http://redeclipse.net/wiki/License that "In the absence of an explicit license, content is considered to be covered by the CC-BY-SA license, either version 3.0 or (at your option) any later version." That looks pretty unambiguous to me. [[User:Taknamay|Taknamay]] ([[User talk:Taknamay|talk]]) 15:18, 18 March 2016 (CET)
: Also, even if there were non-free files, surely Debian removed those. That is why it was moved from non-free to main in Debian's repositories. [[User:Taknamay|Taknamay]] ([[User talk:Taknamay|talk]]) 15:25, 18 March 2016 (CET)
: All content in Red Eclipse is licensed CC-BY-SA (or better); the [http://redeclipse.net/license General Red Eclipse License] states that if no license is supplied by a contributing author (they can opt to select their own libre license), the content ownership is assigned to the project, at which point we license it CC-BY-SA 3.0+. The code and script files are ZLIB. Debian removed us from non-free some time ago when we got our licensing sorted out properly. -Quinton Reeves, Lead Developer for Red Eclipse [[Special:Contributions/59.101.117.9|59.101.117.9]] 04:42, 19 March 2016 (CET)
::I'm glad to learn Debian offers a free version. Are you saying that the things mentioned in all-licenses.txt as "license:omitted" (bin/* src/include/* src/lib/* src/enet/* src/xcode/*) are not in the upstream tarball? Or that they are there but are under a free license? [[User:GNUbie|GNUbie]] ([[User talk:GNUbie|talk]]) 00:04, 25 March 2016 (CET)

== Non-free dependencies ==

Version 2.0.0 ships with a non-free Steam library. See [https://github.com/redeclipse/base/blob/master/src/steam/license.txt]. There is no fully free version to be found anywhere.
