Blog Updates

After half a decade of inactivity I am glad to announce the return of my site. It has been redesigned, rebuilt, and revived. Here is a status update of all future planned releases, in order of soonest to come:

• LINKS PAGE, including old and forgotten webpages featuring content and editors, as well as external tools that have good utility within MOO2. -- DONE!
• Collection of downloads to every official and unofficial version of the game, both CD-ROM based and patches, plus fan translations, subversions, etc. -- DONE!
• List of all known(publicized & released) game mods ever created, every single one ported to the 1.50 patch format as closely as possible, with downloads of both old & new versions. -- DONE
• NOTE: I am MISSING Evolution Mod by PK. If anyone still has this mod, please let me know!! I would greatly appreciate it shared either over Blogger email or through the MOO2 Discord.
• This is not necessarily an exhaustive list. If at any point after release I discover more old mods, or newer mods are released, I will do my best to update accordingly.
• Planned, in no particular order:
• Small guide to modding using 1.50 config format and O2M modding tool. This is meant to supplement existing resources
• Visual guide to using MOO2 Workshop editors in altering game LBX files, file format, categorization. Special concentration on game graphics.
• Compilation of other game editors and tools both old and new, alongside mini-guides.
• Overview of MOO2 remake attempts, both past and recent ones.
• Pages on game mechanics, multiplayer guides, game engine and internals
• Collection of MOO2's physical media and rare items, such as discs, merchandise, etc.
• Very brief intro to reverse engineering MOO2 and how the fan patches were made.
• WRITE-UP of History of MOO2- split into pre-development, development, early post-development, 1.40 patch, 1.50 patch. Including full descriptions on functions of tools and documentation of game changes and design philosophies.
• Encompasses nearly all of the above categories in generality.

Stay tuned!
