for those that like the more colourful universe of babylon 5. - here is the fanmade game based on the open source freespace 2 engine. - it looks great, better even than freelancer.

i haven t played much yet, but the balancing was OK so far. - especially the capital ship / fighter balancing. - which is allmost as perfect as in freespace 2. - the shipchoice is a bit tiny though - only the starfury types. anyway - it cannot really be compared to freelancer, rather with starlancer.
its 800mb, but its free and a full game with a brilliant graphic + 2 compaigns.

i played the battlestar mod. - its even more sophisticated than the babylon 5 mod. - allmost photorealistic graphics ( for whats possible with the open source FS2 engine - but really nice. - beats my computer anyway. - it found it hard to fight though. - the scale of battleships and fighters is much more extreme than babylon 5 or freespace 2 original... and the ships were as hard to hit as centurion in disco - ... just imagine those centurions equipped with tough missiles that can kill a ship in like 2.5 hits.
but i think one gotto get used to it - since it ran too choppy, i uninstalled it again... its downloadable at the mod db. - its quite awesome what some modders have made out of the good old freespace.. - too bad freespace 2 is not multiplayer like freelancer, but only mission based in a small scale. - the engine is way advanced to freelancer - and well... its open source.
