Let's Play Dungeon Keeper 2

Major_Boobage · Apr 17, 2009

Welcome to my LP : the game i am going to play is Dungeon Keeper 2 the successor to Dungeon Keeper 1 (ofcourse).

I created a movie of the first level on youtube.

Nothing really special first level it's basically a training level anyway.

Youtube click, this is the first level.

I wanted to include some comments from me, but i dont know how to record ingame and micro at the same time with FRAPS. Any help is welcome.

Any comments, suggestions (this better then images or not?) are welcome.

It's a damn shame they never made a DK3, even tho 2 had a teaser trailer for it.

Major_Boobage · Apr 18, 2009

So little response, should i even continue this LP?

Andyman Messiah · Apr 18, 2009

No, you shouldn't. Fuck you and fuck this LP and fuck anyone who says differently.

Plz continue lol

Wyrmlord · Apr 18, 2009

Very nice zerotol, I think you are making a good decision to do this LP by video.

I have always been curious about Dungeon Keeper.

I look forward to more updates.

Jim Cojones · Apr 18, 2009

It definitely needs commentary. I've never worked with Fraps so I cannot help you but if you won't find out how to record voice with it, you should use subtitles.

Major_Boobage · Apr 18, 2009

Thanks guy, i will continue the LP. and i have good news, i have found how to record ingame+mic so expect many LULZ to flying around. :lol:

I already finished level 2 complete encode, so i will have to do that all again

Always wanted to play that game but never got around to it. Keep it up!

I bought it as an impressionable youth when it first came out, based solely on the badassery of the horned demon. Turned out to be one of my favorite games ever. Too bad it doesn't run on Vista (or XP, really) without a bunch of screwing around.

feighnt · Apr 19, 2009

watching this video last night got me wanting to play the game again :D

so i went and installed it and it doesnt work :cry:

let's see how much fiddling around i'm willing to do to get the damned thing to play...

in the meantime, keep updating this! great game

ps: been some time since i played... noticed you dropping all those chickens on the boss - that was just for fun, right? it doesnt actually distract him or anything, does it?

(edit) woo! got it to work! :D harder to figure out what to do than it was to do it.

The game plays without a problem on vista. Just enable compatibility WINXP SP2 and it works. It is that simple. You can even play the game in high res (1600*1200) with the last patch.

Expect updates of the first 3 or 4 missions probably tuesday, i will rerecord the first mission and the other ones and let them all upload at night. I have a crappy upload so it takes time :p.

not for everyone - if this was *my* only problem, i wouldnt've had to look for help.

in the graphical options, you need to turn off hardware acceleration... and i *might* also have needed to choose to disable visual themes and desktop composition in the same place you choose to play the game in compatability mode, but i'm not exactly sure - the game didnt fix itself until i turend off hardware acceleration, and *then* went and started a new game. when the first map loaded, it was fine, and it's stayed fine. but if exited the program before this, when i next tried to turn it on, the hardware acceleration would be checked again for some reason

so i dunno if those other two things i did were necessary. but, yeah: Hardware acceleration, and then start a new game - if that doesnt work, try the other two things i did too.

Major_Boobage · Apr 19, 2009

Yes i forgot that you have to turn Hardware acceleration off and indeed it does weird for saving the setting,just try a few times to save it. Change you resolution and stuff like that.

Major_Boobage · Apr 21, 2009

Allright update : i have uploaded the first level again. Now with English commentary. I dont like it a lot this way, but you get what you ask.

Please give suggestions if you want anything changed!

Dungeon Keeper 2 level 1 with English commentary

Edit : i advise you to wait a bit until the HD option is available.

Major_Boobage · Apr 21, 2009

Level 2 soon

Well the file was longer then 10 minutes and then youtube refuses it :roll:

. So i split it in 2 and will reupload it this night :roll:

Marquis de Retardot · Apr 22, 2009

Awesome stuff! Keep it up!

Major_Boobage · Apr 22, 2009

Txs man

Level 2 part 1!

Level 2 part 2!

Level 3 part 1!

Level 3 part 2!

Nothing to interesting happens in Level 2 and 3 because they are basically still training missions. Just meeting some new roomes, some new creatures. Getting familiar with the game mechanics.

Major_Boobage · Apr 23, 2009

Allright , now things are getting better!

Level 4 part 1

Level 4 part 2

Level 4 part 3

Level 4 part 4

Things are getting more interesting now! I get more rooms and creatures.

I still have to upload the last part of level 4. I will probably upload it tonight!.

Phelot · Apr 23, 2009

Thanks for this! This game is great.

wrathofdog · Apr 23, 2009

I'd watch the videos but I'm loathe to listen to zertotol's fruity belgian accent (or whatever heathen backwater you're from).

Major_Boobage · Apr 23, 2009

, my voice just isnt suited for commentary. It's too nasal, i cannot change that.

I am also having big problems, the game keeps crashing and i cant fix it. Really annoying.

How about simply adding text captions to the videos instead.

Voice is much better imo i can give a lot more info. I am also getting better at commenting due to the practice.

However the biggest problem at the moment is being able to play the game without it crashing every 2 minutes. :evil:

Raapys · Apr 26, 2009

Think you can remedy the problem, at least partially, by changing some of the sound stuff in the game.
