Great site.

Even with the beforementioned tips, EMS still might not be available (was not for me). The solution I found here:

http://www.columbia.edu/~em36/wpdos/emsxp.html

You have to disable Legacy USB support (or in my case USB Keyboard support) in your system's BIOS settings.

Now, can anyone explain to me what EMS and USB keyboards have to do with each other? no idea.. anyways, the game works now.

Have fun with a great game!

the legacy support for usb devices is placed somewhere the memory. Unfortunately a lot of bios makers place it at the location where the ems pageframe would be put by emm386

as emm386 can not use that part of the memory for it's pageframe it can not give any ems. (only umb)

I was browsing the strategy section and I noticed, much to my dismay, that while Ascendency is ranked 5 on 5 by the site team, MOO is ranked 4 on 5!

C'mon peeps, MOO is superior to Acendency in every aspect. Well, perhaps with the exception of graphics?

<_<

I think they are both very good games and they both deserve marks of 5, they both have their different good and bad points but it is also the people who download the game that decide the marks, not just the reviewer.

Acendency should not even have more than 3 on 5. I would understand and accept 4 on 5 because of bias of the reviewer, but 5 is an insult.

I am very glad to see others apretiate this game as much as I do. As far as I am concerned this game ranks amungst the very best of all time. Tips rush for as many stars as you can. put $ into rich colonys, and take them out @ 200 % ( leave industry maxed out, returns production to Planetary resurve) or 300% on ultra rich colonys.
and if you still cant win type "MOOLA", "GALAXY", and there's one more but i cant recall it.

This is a superb game! Try to get the black hole gun, or whatever it's called. It halves the number of enemy ships it targets. For example, if you are up against a group of 32000 ships, one shot from this gun will bring it down to 16000!

How can I install this game? The install-program tells me to insert a disk into the drive i'm installing from. if i don't install it dosbox tells me to install it. so what's left to do?

ok, i understand that the manual can be viewed with acrobat reader, but where can i find the Ship's name?

This is among my all-time fav's (Yeah old school!! )--- it's good to have an easily accessible ver. through this site ... Moo2 is almost as good ... it's really sad that Moo3 sucks so bad, this original is 10x the game that Moo3 is-- Masters of orion ----CIV in space --- it kicks @$$!!!!

Is the version thats hosted the cut-and-dried version? By which I mean, videos, sounds, etc.. have been removed to make the file smaller?
