* Player can do more in possession, like claiming rooms, dragging and reinforcing.
* Several Computer Player improvements, like the ability to convert enemies through torture or rebuilding rooms they lost.
* Pathfinding crash solved and improved pathfinding performance, making previously unplayable maps work flawlessly.
* Improved multiplayer stability.
* Improved scaling for high resolutions.
* Neutral units can be imprisoned.
* Fixed the bug from 0.4.8 that caused attacks to never miss.
* Better handling of windowed mode, and new settings for it.
* Chinese translations and better handling of non-western scripts in general.
* Map Makers and modders get loads of new possibilities:
- Seriously raised the 'script limits', more IF-statements, more creature parties, etc.
- Dozens of new script commands
- Ability to calculate, compare and randomize, allowing for complex scenarios.
- New textures, that can be set on full maps or just parts of them.
- Possible to load your own objects and images into the game for players to enjoy.
- Removed the trap limit, so mapmakers can add new trap kinds.
There's new controls too, very important. Look here
Instructions
KeeperFX 0.4.9 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. Do not overwrite an earlier version of KeeperFX or you will have problems.
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.
