Meridian 59: New 3D client and developer tools

About

Meridian 59 is a 1996 game developed by Archetype Interactive and published by The 3DO Company, the first 3D graphical massively multiplayer online role-playing game. meridian59-dotnet is a collection of .NET projects for Meridian 59, most notably OgreClient, a new 3D game client, plus developer tools. It is fully compatible with the community-run Server 105 and Server 112, with only low or minimal compatibility with older branches. The last release noted in the README is OgreClient 1.0.5.6 from September 2018.

How it differs from the original

OgreClient is a new 3D client, replacing the classic Meridian 59 client.

Getting started

The author does not provide binaries directly; OgreClient is downloaded from the servers that support it, such as Server 105 and Server 112. Check that your server allows OgreClient before using it.

Additional notes

Compatibility

Builds for older game branches (OpenMeridian, the original servers) are selected with preprocessor macros, and compatibility there is not guaranteed.
