MOO 1 Optimization.

Master of Orion Optimization guide gives you simple tips to get most advanced experience in playing MOO 1.

Get most advanced playing from the DOSBOX version.

The game is coming from steam only in english language (like the gog version) and with DOSBOX.

You can have some optimizations changing some lines in the configuration file from DOSBOX.
Just edit file dosboxMOO1.conf in the game folder.

First, if you don't wanna play in fullscreen for some reasons you can change this:

fullscreen=false
windowresolution=1280x1024

(from original where numbers are the resolution you want)

Second, to speed up the game and remove useless lags:

Change core=auto to core=dynamic
Change cycles=auto to cycles=max

1oom game engine recreation.

1oom is a Master of Orion (1993) game engine recreation. 1oom is Free Software (GPLv2).
It just requires a copy of the Master of Orion (v1.3) LBX files.

So it is completely legal as it needs your game original files.
It improves the quality of life of the user interface. (better map resolution, mouse wheel use... etc)

Original Page: 1oom website[kilgoretroutmaskreplicant.gitlab.io].
Download link: Last releases[github.com].

How to install? Just unzip .exe files in your game directory. (or copy game .LBX files in the directory unzipped)
Choose SDL1.exe for old computers and SDL2.exe for newest ones.

Enjoy nice new UI MOO 1.

Note that savegames are typical for this engine...

Free open source remake.

Remnants of the Precursors is a modern adaptation of the strategy game released in 1993 and named "Master of Orion".
You don't need to have the original game in order to play it.

The game is also available in multiple languages.

Game Link: Remnants of the Precursors[www.remnantsoftheprecursors.com].

I've corrected the documentation a bit. I hope such problems should not arise in the future. I myself once had problems with this too.

Here we need to break it down into 2 tasks. First, find the .zip file.

[Julien]

I'm sorry , i must be an idiot but i dont see any .exe file in the github repo

[Chaka (FR)]

No you don't need to compile or generate anything. Just follow instructions i give in the guide.

[Someone]

You can try this too, if you can, let me know.

[Julien]

I dont get it, do I need to compile the github repo to generate a new .exe file ?

[Chaka (FR)]

Hello, it's because the software has been updated. Now, you need to click on file named 1oom_classic_sdl2.exe

[Julien]

I dont see any DLL or .exe files when I download 1oom, can anyone explain to me how to install this mod ?

[y2kproxima]

Just customize your DOSBox.conf file properly. Fullscreen works fine for me. You just need to set the other settings correctly.

1oom vs RotP: Depending on what you're looking for. If you are looking for a modern game, then RotP. If MOO1 but with improvements - then 1oom.
