    ... I always wondered how do those pirated copies appear? How do people make unofficial patches and translate games in different languages? How do they crack the exe and fix it for compatibility? Like in my uploaded version, which can be run even on vista and W7? Are they so much PRO programmers, or they simply know some tricks and shortcuts to cracking or its both?

    Is it possible to replicate the DKII Map Editor?

    Not edit, replicate it so that you could make tweaks. (such as the two missing rooms)

    I guess, the only person capable of doing that in current situation (no descent programmers around, familiar with DK editor structure) is Mefistofelis.

    What's the status report DragonsLover?

    That is if this is still a Work in Progress under your command...

    Somehow I feel that I'm back in the military...

    Hmm...

    Good times... I need to shoot more stuff.

    For now, I checked the script of some multiplayer levels and noticed some mistakes in them. Some levels have creatures with wrong experience levels, some others have wrong or unused flags, misplaced or unused action points... and I didn't check the official levels for now as their script are very complex and huge. For example, the first level has over 80 flags...

    I'm also planning to add the multiplayer levels from the demo version of the game, but modified so that they can accept all creatures and all spells.

    I had an idea of redoing the original DK2 campaign. Make larger, more difficult missions and change the flags. There are too many errors. But it's A LOT of work, and I need an experienced helper.

    @DragonsLover
    Heh, make sure you're careful about what's available. Although you didn't mention rooms, I'll use Alcatraz and Wood/Stone Bridge as the example. It is so you can't simply cheat and capture the portals at the East and West.

    I'm pretty sure you already knew that, but just giving that example out.

    @Hapuga
    I would like to help but I am not that experianced with DK2 anymore. And I haven't made many maps lately so I am unsure of how to make those very well either. Although most of my maps had some special type of gameplay...

    I've got bags of knowledge about the DKII Map Editor, but it depends what exactly you're asking for, quality isn't the issue here but the quantity is.

    I mean, if you need me to do the more-advanced stuff then sure just tell me what you want to happen but the demand has to be reasonable. (i.e. If you're only making and designing the map and I have to flag everything in the level, no go)
