    Default Keeperfx refuses to boot

    Every time I try to activate the launcher, the game crashes. I tried the latest nightly build even reinstalling 0.4.6 to no avail.

    What do I do?

    Did 0.4.6 work for you before you downloaded the latest nightly? If so, when you 'reinstalled' did you simply copied the 0.4.6 files over the directory which had the latest nightly? Yes -> do a truly clean install of 0.4.6.

    If not, post the exact error code and log file.

    If you are using the latest nightly, put the file from this issue in your game directory: https://code.google.com/p/keeperfx/issues/detail?id=598

    Every time I download 0.4.6 I get a message from winrar telling me the archive is broken though.

    Strange, the full release contained all files needed and worked standalone.
    Anyway, if you are sure you've installed everything properly and didn't mix files from several versions together, you could try to download the file attached here, which contains that SDL2_mixer.dll.

    Done that and it works, now it causes every other window on my computer to minimise.

    To be clear, are you able to play the game (even with that side effect) or do you mean that's the only thing that happens when it runs?
