February 10, 2011 - changelog for version 1.2
Important notice for the current patch:
To ensure smooth updating to Microsoft .NET Framework 4.0, please make sure that your operating system is up to date by using Windows Update.
New major features:
• Upgraded DUNGEONS to use Microsoft .NET 4.0 (lower memory footprint, faster startup).
• Modified graphic assets for Radeon R520 core compatibility (Radeon X1000 series).
• Switched to hlsl shaders for lower memory footprint.
• Added ribbonbands for all weapons.
• Improved shader effect quality for many game object surfaces (crystal, lava, water, invisibility, ...).
• ReturnToDungeonHeart spell now opens a portal that can be used to travel back. This will not work in old saved games however.
• Allow switching the game language in the in-game options.
New minor features and improvements:
• Goblins fetch their gold from a gold pile in throne room, not from the room-center.
• Shift-Click in attribute panel now increases an attribute by 10 points.
• Increased default autosave interval to 30 minutes.
• Dungeon displacement can now be deactivated in options.
• Rotating camera with right or middle mouse depends now on setting in options.
• Added low shader quality option for improved performance on less capable hardware.
• Allow selecting 720p resolution in options.
• Added configuration option to deactive build-after-teardown.
• Added buff loop animation for heroes.
• Tweaked several game textures to reduce memory footprint.
• Custom game: buy spawn credits with soul energy.
• Custom game: Hero entrances can have a "spawn now" button.
• Custom game: Increase or decrease hero level with soul energy.
• Heroes don't cast townportal if they didn't learn the spell yet.
• Enhanced GUI modding hooks.
• Improved memory monitoring, which can be disabled in config.
• Improved performance of displacement texture.
• Included more sound effects.
• Optimised some models, for improved rendering performance.
• Clip mouse cursor to game window in fullscreen mode, for multimonitor setups.
• Custom game list now shows the map type.
• Minor improvement of positions for all wall gimmicks in the sunken temple setting.
• Tweaked tooltips of campaign map challenges.
• Minor balancing improvements.
Fixes:
• Fixed several reported crashes.
• Various minor map fixes.
• Fixed tortured heroes not running away after being freed by the champion.
• Fixed Minos special attack spells.
• Fixed displacement bugs on GeForce 7XXX series cards in maps with multiple dungeon levels.
• Fixed: Sentries didn't stop moving when they died during patrol (sliding bodies).
• Fixed problem with Alt+Tab during startup and in campaign map.
• Fixed rare audio crash if audio device was lost during the game (e.g. unplugging audio cable).

Hey JBeckman. Just wondering ... the last multiupload file .. was that one supposed to be the 1.2 patch? Cause it contains the 1.0.0.1 -> 1.1.1.0 version (basicaly it's the same file as posted a couple of days ago). Except the rar-file size varies for a couple of bytes witch isn't serious enough to even raise an eyebrow.
Still, tnx a lot m8, for the rapid responses!
@8ball ... for FLT.... backup the original KalypsoLauncher.dll file in your installdir and use it to overwrite the "updated one".
Worked for me, but be warned that you'll have to play from the beginning. (all the saves were X-ed out, even the level beginning ones-that according to the change-log, should have worked)
Be also warned that you'll WANT to restart (  ), cause now you get like 7-10 skill points per level, where in 1.0 you got like 3-4 skill points (basically in level (map) 4 you'll be as strong as you were in level 10 the first time around, it's a lot more fun! Or at least not as frustrating! 
A few pointers I only figured out the second time around (ya, it was in the tutorial, but at that point, I didn't know how important the info was, so I overheard it!):
Spend as much soul energy on prestige gimmicks as you can. They not only guide the heroes on their path of doom and unlock additional equipment to build, they, more importantly, make you stronger as well (up to 400% stronger when you have like 1500+ prestige)
Most importantly .. if the hero upgrades fully, you get his full amount of SoulEnergy from him for being happy, then you kill him and you get all his SoulEnergy AGAIN by imprisonment!
But sadly, in the last update, as soon as any magic users (novice, mage, necro) are fully happy, they use town-portal. But to cast that one they apparently need to sacrifice some vital game-system files, so the game crashes :S The solution: attack him while he's overjoyed and jumping around (and before he has the opportunity to cast town portal!), if you really need to let him upgrade (there is a challenge in one of the maps to let 3 heroes fully upgrade (get overjoyed), and library users upgrade the fastest imho).

Update for 1.1.2 (not 1.2 I'm afraid)
Includes 3 patches, judging by filenames you probably don't need the first one as second includes the first, but included it anyway in case.

The 1.1.2 patch works. The game does not crash after town portal spell. Thanks.

Yeah I just found that, unfortunately things haven't worked out just yet for 1.2 but I will keep trying.
EDIT: Screw it, I'll do it the easy/normal way.
EDIT: And done.

(No idea what the others do, MSP itself should work just fine but there's the entire pack.)

Thanks JB, though apparently the patch doesn't work (The upgrade patch cannot be installed by the Windows Installer yadda yadda) with Dungeons version from Impulse, which is the FLT release. There are numerous reports on the official forums about the said version with no solution yet.
I don't necessarily agree with everything I say.

That's problematic, I guess I can hope the next patch solves it then, not much I can do at the moment.
(Their version due to pricing improvements as to get patches legally, not a bad game either unless compared directly to Dungen Keeper as it tries to be a bit different, said comparison is a bit impossible not to do though due to how the game is marketed and played in a very similar manner.)
EDIT: Uploading the modified files is possible as well I guess but with so many thousands of them it'll take a while to sort trough it and if it's not compatible it might break current installs, better wait and see for now.
(Wonder why they changed the patching format, 1.0.0.1 and 1.1.1.1 and 1.1.1.2 were all identical to the previous uploaded versions yet this one differs.)

I hear patch 1.2 fixes the KalypsoLauncher.dll workaround so no more free rides until someone bothers to crack it.

Patch 1.2 is EN/DE/FR. That's why it doesn't work. All other patches are DE/EN. It is different SKU.

I've found the 1.2 patch for Impulse version, though as mentioned the KalypsoLauncher.dll got updated and switching the backuped one no longer works. Also found a bunch more DLCs, some seem to be duplicates but are few.
Patch: http://www.multiupload.com/6KWJR5JTZN
DLCs: http://www.multiupload.com/VVRC1PF32E
Again: I included the patch for people who can't patch the Impulse version through the launcher. Do not use the patch, if you did not buy the game. Not at least until someone cracks it, if ever.
I don't necessarily agree with everything I say.

Note, there is a modified 1.2 launcher.dll floating around, by certain acronix. Seems to be clean, and works dandy so far.

It can be fun, just don't expect another Dungeon Keeper 2 or you'll get disappointed  |
