MOO2 |
|
|
Ok I am going to try to get this bullshit working again.
I torrented MOO2 in the form of an ISO file but thought winrar took care of ISOs automatically, at least it has before.
I guess ill mount it with dosbox but all I get is this problem where the intro starts but not the rest of the game. fuck!
Anyway if your at all in to strategy games youll probably enjoy moo2 online so help!11 |

Other people should play this game.
I'm not actually some fearsome opponent, because I play in the manner that I think should be min/maxing, rather than in the way that actually is min/maxing. Ie. I'm 95% pacifistic for most of the game. |

I'm kind of interested but I was thinking it was a nice simple text based thing. I guess because of the other definition of MOO. |

It's graphical, but it's pretty simple. If you've ever played Civ, than this is like that, except the map is of a galaxy. And you only move from solar system to solar system, so the whole system is vastly simplified in that regard. |

All you have to do is extract the 1.4 patch within the moo2 directory, and then run Orion2v140.exe instead of Orion2.exe to play the game. |

I don't want to actually play right now, but we can certainly make sure that it all works. |
