What this is.

To help start this topic, I'll say what Natural Born Keeper is.

NBK is a Dungeon Keeper 1 remake. Most of the game will be reletivly same, with some changes, such as 3d graphics, darker lighting, and improved gameplay.

Orignal post from IKLSM:

So here i am I'm a programer who is trying to make a new version of dungeon keeper 1.

Here are some details about my project.

I'm making a remake of Dungeon Keeper 1. That means that the gameplay will be the same only graphics will be better and it will be very easy to modify (add your own creatures...). The project is not playable yet (creatures have no inteligence). But the engine loads every original DK level, every original level from Deeper Dungeons and every level you made yourself. The progress is going slow because i have to do all the work. I'm really bad at modeling because i'm a programer by heart Smiley

What is supported:
- loading of DK levels
- drawing of all terrain types(earth,gold,rock,unclaimed...)
- i've modeled all of DK rooms (including Portal & Heart)
- water & lava are animated
- every door type has its own model
- every trap type has its own model
- there is one creature with inteligence and that is IMP (they have not beed modeled yet)

Questions, answers, and ideas may be posted. But keep in mind, we are REmaking dk1, not MAKING it. so no new, only improved.

I think that's it. If anybody has spoke to IKLSM so far, just let us know if he is still working on the game, and what has been done so far.
