Thread: Unlimited Zoom-Out aka Supreme-Keeper :)

    First, there must be a executable around 2MB, this is only a redirect exe. (subfolder? can you search your DKII directory for *.exe?)

    Second, try to rename the patched exe to DKII.exe (rename the vanilla DKII.exe to DKII.exe.bak before), to enable the windows compatiblity shim support.

    Third, the parameter -32bitdisplay was helping. create a text file, copy this in "DKII.exe" -32bitdisplay put a line break (return key) on the end. Save the file. Rename the file to a BAT ending. Now you can execute the file with double click, and DKII is started with the parameter. (more parameters are here http://keeperklan.com/threads/681-Command-Lines-List)

    Fourth, you can try under Desktop-> Settings -> advanced -> Troubleshooting -> Hardware Acceleration to lower it by 4 ticks.

    Fifth, set the core affinity for DKII.exe on startup.The sysinternal tool Psexec is the solution for XP, vista and 7 (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/s.../bb897553.aspx, http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8...for-windows-xp).

    ahh, thanks for positive feedback!
    It's not as weird as it first sounds, while I was debugging the exe I found heavy windows shim activity, which is connected to the filename. If windows found a exe known by filename, it tries to applies compatiblity fixes. By renaming the exe I was sabotaging this mechanism, fixed in new version.

    Try this second version, I'm positive in this version also the unlimited zoom will work
    Supreme Keeper patched v1.3 exe download VERSION2 (2.5MB)
    (patches for other versions are here)

    Please, someone report back if the unlimited zoom works for him in DKII version 1.3!

    Thanks

    In the archive are 2 versions: first one was jonly extended by the ''zoom'' capability, the second one (with a "_dx" ending in file name) is the version for the GOG installation (with the redirect to timeslip "patched.dll"). The 1.7, 1.73 and 1.80 worked for me with zoom and the GOG installation. The 1.3 worked not at all for me, neither native nor with the "patch.dll", so for this version feedback would be of interest.

    Pre-patched DKII exes with unlimited zoom capability (GOG and non-GOG version)
    Supreme Keeper patched v1.3 exe download (2.5MB)(mirror)
    Supreme Keeper patched v1.3 exe download VERSION2 (2.5MB) (mirror)

    Supreme Keeper patched v1.7 exe download (2.5MB) (mirror)
    Supreme Keeper patched v1.73 exe download (2.5MB) (mirror)
    Supreme Keeper patched v1.8 exe download (3.4MB) (mirror)

    Feedback would be appreciated! (Especially for the combination: v1.3 installation + patch.dll from the GOG version.)
