FreeOrion is avaiable as precompiled point releases for Windows XP and Linux, and as a disk image for MacOSX. The source code may also be downloaded and compiled for Linux, WinXP or MacOSX.

Windows XP

Point releases for Windows XP including most necessary art, data, sound and libraries, can be downloaded from SourceForge. Note that WinXP Service Pack 2 and the .NET Framework 2.0 are required.

The .NET Framework 2.0 can be installed by by running Windows Update, selecting "Custom", then "Optional, Software", then ".NET Framework 2.0". Alternatively, it may be downloaded from Microsoft directly.

Windows 2000

The Windows XP Freeorion v0.3.1-RC5 point release has been reported to run on Windows 2000.

Linux

A statically linked binary of a recent version (as of mid-August 2007) is available. See this forum post for a link. This or similar binaries have been tested on Debian Edge and OpenSuSE 10.2, and may work on other distributions as well.

Mac OS X

As of Sept. 1, 2006, a disk image of a recent version (between RC4 and RC5) is available for MacOSX. See this forum post for a link.

Geschützter Bereich offers v0.2 binaries & gamedata (tested on Panther 10.3) and required SDL frameworks. fov0.2 will only run against older SDL frameworks (probably v1.0). SDL_mixer 1.2 kills it with a "1145798173" header mismatch error.

Move the frameworks into /Library/Frameworks or ~/Library/Frameworks. Libvorbis is also required; see the discussion page for information on how to install.
