				 Free Orion 
 I downloaded this free game called Free Orion.  I don't know that much about it but it seems like a noble try.  Does any one here play it?  If so, how do you build ships?  I cannot add any to my queue

 Free Orion is still in the early alpha stages, and has been at the same 0.3 milestone release for a few years now. :-\ |

				 Re: Free Orion 
 This is a good start to a game that might be very good.  I noticed they used a lot of DOGA models though. I wish they would have talked to me first.  The models might have turned out a bit better.

 |  It's version 0.3! Go ahead and revamp some of the models and go upload them to the development site. Some contributions might kick start some more work on the game. |

 I'll take 10.
 I thought Free Onion was a weird name for a game.

 |  Ironmanbc already gave it: http://www.freeorion.org/ 
You'll probably be able to find development guides that give the model specs somewhere on that site. If not, you can join the forums and ask. |

				 Re: Free Orion 
 The main page says that 0.3.8 was just released last week, so I would probably go with that one...
