No, no, what I mean is, they attack me almost as soon as they meet me. I've never even gotten the "Yadda yadda know first contact is difficult yadda yadda hope we can coexist peacefully yadda yadda" spiel. Right from the start, they're hostile and any time I try my hand at spymastering, they always know it's me.

Does anyone know if MOO2 is abandonware yet?

Nope. Still sold.

OK, thanks. I'll play this for the next year or so then!

Curse you, CDAccess.com! :tai:

hey, i'm having trouble installing the game, i go to install it, and it asks me to insert the disc, and i can't get around this, any info is appreciated, thanks send replies to e-mail removed

Please don't post e-mails in public forums

After easyly winning a game on Medium mode, I lost badly in Hard now. Every single race but myself voted for those Silicoids so they won. If that wouldn't have been the case, I think the Klackons, with whom I was at war with, sooner or later would have killed me anyways.

This is simply the best game ever. Second maybe only to MoO2, but I think Moo1 had some nice feats that even MoO2 couldn't deliver. The simple battles for example. Ever brought a wave of destruction upon your enemies by using 8000 tiny ships, each equipped with a gauss cannon/disruptor/...? "Resistance is futile" gets a whole new meaning with such a fleet :)

Hey there. I've looked over a majorty of the forum to see if someone posted anything to help me through my problem. So here it goes.
I downloaded it, un rared it to its own directory "MOO" in the c:\ folder. Everything was put in there.
Next I of course tried to install, seeing as how that wasn't working, I checked the posts on here.
I learned that I juat needed to use the ORION exe. So I clicked it. I got that message that flashed my really quick. Reading up on here I saw I needed to change the EMS to 1024, so i did. STILL same problem saying i needed 1024 memory, I even changed all the executables EMS to 1024, still no luck. Next I tried using my DosBox to run it. and when I tried to run the ORION exe, it told me to install the game. If anyone can help me out here it'd really help.
Here is my computer specs, plus dosBox if it helps:

If anyone could help me out it'd be totally apreciated :kosta: :kosta:

before running the "orion.exe" in dosbox, run "install.exe" over again and set everthing from begining (i also had this problem btw, and after few attempts of running instal exe and changing configs it finaly stopped giving me the message)
if after install.exe you will still get errors, try my config here http://www.sendspace.com/file/1a6ekn (replace the old one in moo directory)
