I might not have noticed, if not for the fact that suddenly a Maiden (dryder) entered my dungeon. It didn’t matter if my whole dungeon was nothing but temples, I wouldn’t get a Dark Angel. If I had started with MPD, I would have noticed this right away. Serves me right for doing the campaign first, even though all I wanted to do all along was My Pet Dungeon. I played it for approximately 1,000,000 hours and it never crashed or lagged once.īut, after approximately 1,000,001 hours of gameplay, I finally discovered that one of the old problems were still there to haunt me. I got it up and running, and – no crashes! Everything was smooth and perfect. Pretty much all I had to do was enable DirectPlay on Windows 10, which you do in Programs and Features by enabling “Legacy Components” in the list of Windows Features to turn on/off, and then enabling “DirectPlay” in the drop-down menu under “Legacy Components.” Et voila!

So I bought it, and it took a minor bit of tweaking around to get it running on Windows 10 (which nobody claimed it could run on, so this is not surprising), but it wasn’t too bad. I wouldn’t mind being out $2.39 if it was still completely unplayable. I’ll buy it and see if what they say is true.

So I had given up on that for a while.įor whatever reason, I looked into it again this weekend, and found that from GOG Games it is now only $2.39 to buy DKII plus, I saw in the comments that the game supposedly was updated to run on Windows 7 and Windows 8.

Plus they had a patch to update it to the “latest” version of the game, which also happened to prevent Dark Angels from spawning. I recall that before, even from GOG Games, DKII would crash constantly and was absolutely unplayable. I looked into it, and you don’t have to run it on a DOS emulator anymore (yay), because GOG Games apparently buys up old abandonware and keeps it current so it can run on modern systems. I commented on another post on how I got it working.I’ve started playing Dungeon Keeper II again. You can't alt and tab from the game if it shits itself I log off from crtl alt del and that gets me back to desktop. LEGEND! I have this on disc but your copy runs like a dream, lets me run it in a higher res for better looks and includes the map editor. To get this to take effect I had to start a game as restarting did nothing so i just ran a my dungeon and from the moment it loads the graphics are set and i can see everything on the main screen and the whole game. Now run the game and the same problem should be happening, now go in to the games graphic options and uncheck Hardware Acceleration. Then tick Disable Visual Themes, Disable Desktop Compsosition and Disable Display Scaling on Hig DPI Settingsand click apply. Then Tick Run this program in compatability mode for (i use windows 2000 for my win 7). To get Dungeon Keeper 2 to work on win7 (i'm sure the same will work for you) was to right click the dk2.exe, go in to Properties and click the compatability tab at the top. i intalled it on another computer as well so i know its not the download.ĪMD Athlon Dual-Core QL-60 1.90 GHz processorĦ4 bit (if that has anything to do with it)Īnyone has any answers to this i would greatly appreciate it x.x ive scanned most of the posts here and remember seeing one problem like it.but with 400+ posts its hard to refind. i try to bring up task manager, the mouse will work when i can select what i want to do (right after the CTRL+ALT+DEL) but when i get the task manager up, i cant move my mouse. I have the compatibility and everything set up, and its installed, but when i click to play it it takes me to a black screen and thats it. i loved this and never could find it no matter how hard i looked. Second, thank you for putting up the game. One, idk about others, but the first thing i did was check the most recent post to make sure the DL still works, so, this is me for everyone that does this as of it does Not sure if this is very active anymore.but few quick things.
