This package is available "as is" and ready-to-run, and has not undergone the severe tests of the official OR 1.3 standard version.
It is based on the standard OR 1.3, which has been adapted to run under MonoGame.
The "E" after 1.3 means that some additions/changes have been introduced, that aren't present in the OR 1.3 standard version.
They are:
- HUD scroll (provided by mbm_OR)
- sound debug window with track sound added (provided by dennisat)
- changed font for digital displays of 2D cabs (provided by me).
The MG specific version, which has been developed starting from the vast pioneer work of Peter Gulyas (gpz) includes also many important patches by dennisat, which contributed also to testing. Through Dennis also a patch suggested by perpetualkid was included.
You are invited to read the full readmes which are present in the program's directory.
Please keep this package separate from the official OR 1.3 standard version.
The development kit (which is of interest only for people wanting to fiddle with the source code) may be downloaded here

People that already downloaded the pack may simply overwrite ParticleEmitterShader.fx (which is in the Content subfolder) with the attached one, after having unzipped it.

Number of downloads: 573

at least for reasonably up to date computers, there shouldn't be a Monogame-"fee". However I have read in a German forum diverging reports: one player has now the OR MG running slower than the standard version, and the other one gets the opposite result. Do you still have some older OR MG version to make a comparison? That would interest me.
I'm also interested in reports by other people about FPS comparisons between OR MG and OR standard version.

I didn't notice any other differences in any way after the Exhaust Fix , which was a minor visual thing not a performance degradation .
Just my observations on my rig .

As I understand it Monogame is system allowing crossplatfrom support for any MIcrosoft XNA4 software and wether OR will run will depend on how good the Linux support for Monogame is (Note: Linux DOES have all the required tools including a C# complier. What is likely requiired is for someone to try and build OR under Linux Monogame.
Note: OR 1.2 is reported to work VERY well under wine on Linux.
