I'm gonna explorer if GOG.com has done anything with the multiplayer, if they have I might start a ladder or tournament for it.

Software rendering is forced, changing to hardware acceleration isn't saved :/

Multiplayer is no different than retail

For a short moment I said to myself: "it's gog, they should have done something with the game" but then I went skeptical, as always... and was right, unfortunately. Looks like we will see a working MP close to never.

If someone does fix multiplayer, however, I'm sure GoG would pay them for their troubles and then implement the fix.

Not a fact. Depends on the contract that GoG has with EA.

EA Games needs a punch to the throat. I quit buying their games a couple of years ago. Their new games can gtfo of my PC. kthxbye EA.

Edit: We all know that EA Games won't fix DK2, simply because they no longer make any money off of DK2.

Where is the Music.zip arhive for us to download for GIM 1-05? I can't find it. Or does that optional step not apply to the GOG version of DK2 ?

Also, I'm confused as to which exe I should launch from, dkII or dkII-dx ?
I'm installing on a GOG DK2 game. If I use the DKII-DX.exe will I lose the AI fixes?

Re:" G.I.M. Version 1.05
This is a mod/unofficial patch for Dungeon Keeper 2 version 1.7.
It has the better AI for enemy Keepers from DK2 official patch
version 1.51 and features from the GOG patch 1.7 version; the user can
choose between the official patch 1.51 DKII.exe or the GOG DKII-dx.exe
to get the best benefits from them along with my own additions and
fixes. "

Thanks

"7.) (OPTIONAL) If you would like to be able to watch the DK2
cinematics in-game without using a CD, download the Movies.zip
archive and extract it into the Bullfrog\Dungeon Keeper 2\Data
folder."

Re: which GIMP 1-05 exe file to use to launch the game with to keep the AI fixes:
"I believe DKII.ece for regular play, and DKII-dx.exe for multiplayer ;
GIM only applys the regular DKII.exe, DKII-DX.exe is still 1.7"
And as 1.7 has broken AI for single player you don't want to launch with DKII-DX.exe except for multiplayer.

Also Re: downloading a Movies.zip archive (Optional Step 7) for GOG version, you don't need to:
"when you download the game off GOG, the movies are included
whoever said the info that the movies are separate are wrong
the movies always come with the game by default"
