Apparently back in 1999, someone decided to create an open-source MechWarrior 2 remake for Linux called, "LinWarrior 3D", and have sense then been making newer versions and features.
@Skyfaller:
I thought I'd put it here to see if you would want to look into the open-source code and mess around with stuff.
I obviously can't play it because I don't know how to do a darn thing in Linux and I don't have OpenGL
