If you actually read the .nfo file in the archive, which tells you what to do, you must open keeper.cfg and change the directory to that where you installed the game or install the game to the path in keeper.cfg either will work!

dungeon keeper definatly works on 98. I think it is a dos game because when i try dungeon keeper on xp i keep getting a weird error. This might be because I still have to patch it but i have not tried this yet.

It ran first time for me on XP. What weird error?

As far as I'm concerned it's definately abandonware because:

1) You cannot buy it brand new anywhere - certainly not from EA, Amazon or CDAccess.
2) I'm fairly certain EA do not offer technical support for it anymore and it is not mentioned anywhere on the eagames website.

So if someone wanted to put it on the site, I don't think there would be a problem!

I bought DK Gold about 7 years ago. I could upload the ISO(400MB?!?) or someone could teach me how to crack it.

Well, the download from HOTU is 75MB but they got it down to that by taking out the version of the game that will run on non-Direct3D/3DFx cards.

This is probably why so many people are having trouble with it. That HOTU archive will only support a limited number of graphics cards and some of them need you to run the 3Dfx-D3D fix before running it!

If we had it on Abandonia I think we would have to have the full thing so everyboady would be able to run it. A 400Mb ISO wouldn't bother me but I suspect Kosta would probably view it a bit differently! LOL

Well, as it's still not clear if it's abandoned or not, and whether it's too large for the site or not, I'll need first a word from authorized person(s) to upload my full game + addon Deeper Dungeons (around 220 MB compressed).
