I'm trying to install Master of Orion 3 under Vista.
I had a look to see what patches and updates had been released for it to fix all bugs and bring it up to date when I install it. Officially the developer only released patch version 1.25 which I have, but this isn't compatible with Vista according to the MOO3 and Atari community forums.
However I've done more digging and discovered that fans of MOO3 have worked hard fixing all the bugs, improving the graphics, adding useful additions such as higher screen modes, improved graphics and better balanced gameplay.
The problem is, the links to these mods are all broken on the two sites http://www.moo3.at and http://www.ataricommunity.com/forums/ that have the links to them.
So does anyone have the MODs they could send me? Or know where I can get them from?
The update mods are named as follows
Vanilla
Strawberry
Tropical
Chocolate
This is the order of their release, with the first two bug fixing and correcting the game balance, and the last two including everything from the first two, but then updating and changing how the game works.
I'm most after the Strawberry MOD as this contains everything from the Vanilla update and more. The file is called UOP_Strawberry_V1.2.zip and all links I've found have been broken.
It would however be good to get hold of all of the different update mods the community has released, and it is sad if they have become lost.
