Thread: Keeperfx will not start

    I have the same problem too. I've read the Readme but they don't tell you what they need and when I used the launcher it always say that "Files needed not found" even if I have the image for DK1 and have copied and installed using Dosbox to get whatever files needed.

    I decided to try and copy files over manually and here's my log:- (Before manual copy, the log is the same as Lemon's)

    That was for older versions of KeeperFX. Now, you need an original copy of the game to play KeeperFX. Search around and you may find what you need.

    Big mistake. DO NOT copy files from the CD to the KeeperFX directory. You must use the integrated installer in order to make the game running.

    could I get the version that doesnt need dk1 off of his website? that seems a lot simpler.

    Sure, just get an older version. Version 0.37 upgraded to 0.37c should run pretty fine.

    That does kinda defeat the whole point of the whole "requiring DK1" thing, though.

    Either ask Mefisto to get it back or try to locate an image disc of the game somewhere to use with the latest version of KeeperFX. If you search a bit, you should get what you need.

    Yeah, most of older versions won't download anymore, only patches can still be downloaded. Sorry for that; these files were deleted from the server.
