KeeperFX 0.4.8 has been released. See here.
KeeperFX is a fan made open-source remake of Dungeon Keeper that requires the original game to function. You can use your original disk, or the GOG/Origins versions of the game to complete installation. The fan expansion offers countless bug fixes, quality of live improvements and new content, while retaining the feel of the original game.
What's new in 0.4.8:
* No more random crashes/hangs on complex dungeon layouts
* Keepers design better dungeons
* Keepers don't keep Call to Arms on forever anymore
* Keepers will now use all their spells
* Keepers will start to sell traps/doors instead of filling up the entire map with workshops
* Imps will walk to unexplored tiles if you tell them to dig it
* Tunnelers don't get stuck as often anymore, and may get unstuck when they do.
* Units getting happy and angry now works properly
* Melee units will use their spells from a distance (e.g. put up rebound when getting shot at, not only when in melee range)
* Redesigned Fear implementation
* Units may now sleep and eat during Call to Arms if they are about to die
* Word of Power trap redesigned
* A lot more configuration options for campaign makers and modders
* New controls. (see here)
* Far more options for mapmakers, through level script commands. (see here)
* The game can now be fully played in Korean
* Two new campaigns included with the game (Assmist Isle and Revenge of the Lord), others have fixes and updates.
* and much more,.....
Instructions
KeeperFX 0.4.8 Complete is delivered as a complete installation, but requires a legally owned copy of Dungeon Keeper for copyright reasons. An original version (Disk, GOG, etc) is used to play, so after extracting the archive run the included Launcher and select 'Installation' to copy the required files over.
Installation instructions can be found on the official wiki. If you have any problems with the release, feel free to share here or on Keeperklan. There's also a troubleshooting section on the Keeperklan Discord. Note that you will be asked for the contents of the keeperfx.log file. Music files need to be downloaded separately if you want to have the game music play without your cd in your drive.
