Unfortunately, neither of my computers is compatible with Moo1 (don't have moo2). I don't suppose they fixed that, or the annoying "identify the ships" copy-protection from Moo1? I loved Moo on my ancient Windows 98 PC...

They run inside DOSBox. In fact, the ones you get on Impulse ship with DOSBos and don't require any additional messing around to work on modern OSes."The issue is there are still many people out there that use religion as a crutch for bigotry and hate. Like Ben."

Cool! Anybody know about the copy-protection business?

MoO2 used to require the CD in the drive, IIRC. Impulse's versions probably don't have copy protection. In any case, there's ways around the copy protection that, while technically ilegal in the US, might let you play the game you bought without all that hassle.Indifference is Bliss

The Impulse versions definitely don't check for CD, for obvious reasons."The issue is there are still many people out there that use religion as a crutch for bigotry and hate. Like Ben."

No, I just downloaded it yesterday and the identify-the-ship rubbish is still there. But I found the GIF online and bookmarked it, so it isn't too bad.

You know, I didn't check. I assumed I got the answer right the first time it popped up and I just clicked something. Maybe, rather than explaining it, they decided to pass it off as a really lame, pointless feature of the game? Anyway, I hadn't played MOOII before so I've been busy with that. +1 research creative democracy low-G=very little challenge, yay!
