Re: A Moo3 Reject
 

Just got it! Now onto becoming the most vile tyrannical despot ever..

Going to play in order: TDM-Mod, porportions, FQM (the deluxe, of course!)

Just double checking in case I have trouble getting the mod to work:

1) Install the mod
2) change the path settings
3) run game

Is it that simple?

Thx for all ur help guys. I will keep it in mind as I purge each enemy system of sentient life...

Make sure to use the latest Version of the MODs and of course the latest patch. The MODs on the CD are mostly outdated and new Versions have been posted.
If you use the Mod Launcher, you don't even have to alter your path in the path.txt.

Have fun!

Well, that was quick...

Been playing for about 3 hours now and lost a bunch of times...I think it might be time to turn down the difficulty settings just a bit...

Thx to all the modders who made this game so much fun http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif Don't worry, you will need some time to learn what can or should do.
Some cheap advices:
- play without AI bonus
- go early for mines (you will get some time meanwhile).
- play in mid or big galaxy.

Think you already should know this usefull link: http://www.shrapnelgames.com/cgi-bin...;f=23;t=005518 but just to be sure...

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">You can use FQM with those other mods, you know. There is info on how to combine FQM with other mods in the Help folder of FQM. But, I recommend not combining FQM with Proportions, because you can get an insane level of resources from remote mining all of the asteroids in FQM maps, which is not good for Proportions mod. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

Re: A Moo3 Reject
 

Wow. I think MOO3 is officially a dud. Most of the reviews are coming back really bad. Buyers are going out of their way to warn people not to purchase the game. On Amazon, the price has been lowered to $39.99 and you can buy used for $10 less than that. This is a real shame.

Side question. Have computer games(PC) been getting steadily worse in quality, originality, and playability or am I getting old? There have always been bad games released, but it seems recently (Last 5 years or so) they have gotten much worse.

Re: A Moo3 Reject
 

The computer gaming industry has been steadily declining in quality over the past few years. This is why small companies like MM/Shrapnel are so great nowadays, as they tend not to follow the pack and they actually make well-designed games and support them well. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">There were copies on eBay three days after release. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif I wonder if those auction pages contained scathing reviews or if they were clear headed enough to give some other excuse for reselling the game and hopefully get a better price...

Anyway, the money flow of the gaming industry is actually getting nearly as large as Hollywood. As you know, when Big Money enters the picture, so does Big Bureacracy, and the fat-headed suits who manage it. Any further questions? http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...s/rolleyes.gif
