Dune 2 really is such an awesome game. I remember spending so much time on it after I finished all my exams back when I was like 14

Also, I do love the original C&C, so it was a perfect mashup from my point of view.

I also encountered some graphical problems (XP, ATI). I had to turn off VSYNC completely and set it up to 98 compatibility mode + switching desktop to 16 bit. It's definitely desktop related imo. Also had to switch the desktop resolution to 640x480 sometimes.

hunvagy's solution might come into handy with this game.

i don't know if somebody else already said this thing, but i've just tried this game under win7 64 bit and it works like a charm !
just extract the game, double-click on the dune2000.exe, enjoy!

I had 2 problems with Dune2:
1. The complete empowerment of the AI to compensate for its stupidity.
e.g. I destroyed a rocket turret and all concrete slabs in a 5 square radius using the rckt launcher attack and withdraw technique, waited for all of my launchers to repair and regroup and lo and behold there's a new turret waiting for me, at the same spot, with full health and not a single concrete slab around it.
2. The constant degredation of all buildings even when placed on slabs while the AI's are always at full health.

The AI doesn't need concrete to rebuild its structures. Same thing in Command & Conquer, the AI here does not need a structure to be adjacent to another friendly structure to be rebuilt.

Honestly, if the AI didn't cheat, it would have been way too easy to beat, so why complain?

This is a dune 2000 clan, they are very friendly and nice people and they provide support for Dune 2000 Online, if you want to play it online go ahead and sign up on the forum!

Trust me it's worth it.

Me and N.Kindt at dune2k.com forums have made a high resolution patch. You can download it here:

http://d2kplus.com/hires.php

It has been reported that this fixes the split screen problem.

!!! Make sure you patch the game to version 1.06 first and use a 'fixed' .dat file like
this one: http://d2kplus.com/subhousesfix.php !!!

I have a 7,4MB .7z file containing files to make the Abandonia Dune 2000 game:

- Patched to version 1.06;
- No-CD and Sub Houses Fix Patch;
- Mission Select Mod (with fixed test missions);
- 1024x768 resolution installed, with High Resolution Patch in Dune 2000
folder it is possible to change resolution!

But!, I can't upload it. Would Abandonia be willing to host it or?

I can also make it tiny bit smaller in size, by not pre-patching it to 1024x768.

If we compare the OST of Dune 2000 with its predecessor Dune II, we can notice certain similarities with some musics. Unfortunately, this time, Frank Klepacki’s compositions are not as memorable as his previous ones...
