I installed the Tropical recently. I did not even try to play again because the change list states "Race Selection (Ensures no duplicate races until all used at least once) - Bhruics Patcher ". There were still duplicate races while all were not used at least once. Also the texture on many panels was changed to some funky, annoing, attempt to look like stone marble. Many of the changes in these unofficial upgrade lists(Vanilla, Strawberry, Tropical at: http://www.moo3.at/mods/index.php?ac...aycat&catid=17 ) seem superficial or opinionated if really considered.

I re-installed Master of Orion III as Stock/Official only. I may try to play again in the future. The game is... alright. The official update version 1.2.5 resolved many issues but not all, of course. There are many bad aspects but also many good features that would be nice if seen in more games...maybe in future Space Empires?

Should we start a constructive list of the positive and negative features in Master of Orion III?

Okay, I originally responded too quikly with this statement. The Vanilla mod actually seems good for fixes while keeping the official design of the game. As for the duplicate races issue, I think that I was seeing only the Orion Senate empires present. Some were duplicates but many more were not in the senate. Vanilla increases the maximum number of empires.

Explore, Expand, Exploit, Exterminate, and Experience with Master of Orin 3(version 1.2.5); Vanilla(or Strawberry or Tropical for more flare). http://www.moo3.at/mods/index.php?ac...aycat&catid=17
