Pre-release

@cranebeaker cranebeaker released this 17 Oct 21:52

Fixes:

  • Torture screen: after a level where you captured the Lord of the Land, everyone now gets the dragging movie and the torture screen together, then the statistics and the campaign map.
  • Long movies: the connection stays alive while a movie plays, so nobody gets dropped during long movies.
  • Escape on the campaign map: press it twice. The host takes everyone back to the lobby; a friend who presses it leaves on their own and the others carry on.

Install: copy everything from the zip into your KeeperFX folder (back up keeperfx.exe first). Every player needs this same build.

The Host and Join bat files now ask for your nickname and hand colour (red, blue, green, yellow, purple, orange, cyan, white; press Enter to skip). The host's bat also asks how many players will join (2 to 4).

Same game build as 0.1.0. Install: copy everything from the zip into your KeeperFX folder (back up keeperfx.exe first). Every player needs this same build.

Dungeon Keeper Co-op 0.1.0 (beta)

@cranebeaker cranebeaker released this 16 Oct 15:40

First beta of Dungeon Keeper co-op on KeeperFX: 2 to 4 players share one keeper.

Install: you need Dungeon Keeper and KeeperFX 1.4.0. Copy everything from the zip into your KeeperFX folder (back up keeperfx.exe first). Every player needs this same build.

Play:

  • Steam (no port forwarding): host runs Host Co-op (Steam).bat and invites friends; friends start Join Co-op (Steam).bat first, then accept the invite or use Join Game in Steam.
  • Direct IP: Host Co-op.bat and Join Co-op.bat (UDP port 5556).

What works:

  • Shared keeper: dig, build, cast, pick up and slap together, each with your own camera and cursor
  • Everyone can possess creatures (one player per creature)
  • Friends' hands shown in their colour with their name; possessed creatures marked
  • Shared campaign map, briefings and statistics screens
  • Steam lobbies and invites, or direct IP
  • Covered by the in-game test bot with real game clients, 2 and 3 players, over IP and Steam, with every turn checked for sync
