So, there are projects like these;

https://www.dfworkshop.net/

Projects that in one way or another aim to modernize a classic, or try make it more playable on modern machine, or just try to expand on things (like gzdoom does)

what other projects are out there in a similar vein?

I find this a little difficult to search for, even with specific terms (i tried finding myself)

I'm on a discord server with a Win9x era masochist that has made Streets of SimCity, SimCopter, and SimCity 2000, among other games, work on modern systems. His patchers are here: http://krimsky.net/patchers.html
