In fact it's really the best way to play, since running MOO2 on a retro PC that meets original specs means late-game AI turns will take a very long time. But on a modern PC the AI is always done in an instant.Wizardlinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03248276997829125124noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6448153.post-65722791553211445982019-11-06T15:32:25.254+01:002019-11-06T15:32:25.254+01:00Is this still a valid system?

All I said was "Hello!" before getting kicked shortly after. <br /><br />I was hoping to maybe catch some multiplayer action. I was connecting from South Africa, maybe that is an issue with the channel moderator. Dopefish was there as well as the moderator (Darza or something along those lines). <br /><br />Other than that there was nothing much going on at the time of my connecting in the channel. I was just trying to find out which mods are needed and if there were still games going on. This happened this Saturday, 10/01/2016.<br /><br />Regards,<br />Risi.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6448153.post-30865404743854573182016-07-26T05:38:49.824+02:002016-07-26T05:38:49.824+02:00Why not buy MOO1&2 package from GOG.com for $5...Why not buy MOO1&2 package from GOG.com for $5.99?

One of you uses b24 patch and other b23.

I copied it and have been able to play multiplayer games my question is though, it seems like my dosbox does not use the config file. It always opens to z: and no changes I made in the CFG reflect in the dosbox. Any Ideas? It's like I have to associate it with the game or cfg file somehow and I don't know what to do. Like I said though I can play network games. I just have to enter the code each time for each pc.LTPLEGENDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15262002406053653214noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6448153.post-6026566389174178632011-07-07T23:19:58.952+02:002011-07-07T23:19:58.952+02:00If Player A, B, and C started a game but C is miss...If Player A, B, and C started a game but C is missing in the save means that player A or B saved this game while Player C had already left the game via the quit menu.<br /><br />Therefore Player C should still have the correct auto save in slot 10.<br /><br />If the autosave of C is overwritten there is still a chance to fix this via hex editing.
