I also cannot build upgraded turrets that are available in the YouTube playthroughs.

However, I found several YouTube playthroughs of the exact same campaign and the exact same mission where all of these are available.

Examples:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=olbQapVl8hU
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-hW_-GP-N1s

I already checked my installation, opened D2K_O8.MIS and D2K_O8.MAP in the D2K Map & Mission Editor, and compared the mission settings. Everything seems normal, but my mission is clearly different.

Could someone please tell me:

1. Which version of War of Assassins are those YouTube videos using?
2. Is there a newer or older version of the campaign?
3. Could someone share the correct campaign or the correct D2K_O8.MIS file?

Thank you very much!

I am currently working on modding the campaigns (specifically Ordos Mission 5) and I want to edit the mission logic. I know about Klofkac's Map and Mission Editor and its features, but I strictly prefer to work directly with the raw text code rather than using a GUI.

Is there a working tool available (like a mis2txt / txt2mis utility or FunkyFr3sh's MisEditor) that allows me to decompile the .MIS binary file into a plain .txt file, edit the Events, Conditions, and Triggers manually, and then compile it back to .MIS?

Unfortunately, most of the old download links I found are dead. Any help, guidance, or working download links would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance!

I was playing it on and off for years and all of a sudden it just completely stopped working on my computer.

Can someone help guide me how I reinstall? HUGE thanks!!

What I experience is either none cut-scenes whenever I install Dune 2000 Grunt-modes version 1.6.7 only (without cut-scenes) but at least it does start.

But whenever I install English cut scenes then Single player and online too does not start at all, whenever I click on it nothing happens.

I have priorities but not limited too only this graphic card:          Intel(R) Iris(R) Xe Graphics

Also please note that I have changed many settings in Dune 2000 configuration file but so far no result.

Can somebody please help me fix this issue, please???

Thank you!!!

Have a nice weekend!!!

I am trying to delete the second save game listed when I open the load mission screen. I am not sure which files apply to which save games.
When I delete, S2.SAV the game only shows the two most recent save games as opposed to all 10. I am specifically trying to delete the second most recent save game I made while keeping the most recent save I made.

I am using Dune 2000 All in one edition, patch v.1.06 rev. 43 by FunkyFr3sh on Windows 10. Also directdraw dll to use custom resolution, but it doesn't seem to cause the issue per se.

The problem is any type of ground, rocks or sand doesn't get any damage, no matter how long it's been shot, even via ctrl force attack. Ground damage holes and craters just don't appear at all.

Is there any workaround to this? Game works fine and is fully playable besides this visual bug.

Tried to launch it with different windows compatibility options and w/o ddraw dll. Still have no bullet holes in the ground.

I install latest version of dune 2000, I want to play with my son. When I create game on CNCNET5, and me and son connect. After launch game I see time 00:00 on right corner and game finish not started. Any can help with this?

game data invalid gGameTicks =  (and a five or six -digit number) such as 11659, 220336, 61488

thanks for any help. I mean, if I can't finish the old game I was playing, that's not the worst thing, but I just want to make sure it doesn't happen again with new games.

First off, thank you to those who create new levels for us to play, I have played this game since I was twelve, am now thirty six! 

I am looking for a specific level that I cannot find now. It was a modded level, the homebase started in the bottom right corner with enemies on every other section of land. From memory, the colour of the army was silver and green. Does this ring a bell for anyone? Help me find my fav level! 

I have a slight issue with the map display before selecting the location for the next mission. In the original game, I could see the colors of the factions progressing. However, here, even though the audio commentary indicates the progress of each faction, I can't see it until I reach the static image of the menu (selecting the next mission).

This only occurs during the “video” phase of the comments (when colors appear on the map).

I hope my post is clear enough :)

to setup and install .net 3.5 to work around this issue i. Win key plus X and started Terminal "Administration" then enter the command below. The install of .net 3.5

took over a hour but you could see it progressing so i walked away and allowed it to finish once finished Dune2000 GruntMods Edition 1.6.5 worked.

powershell -WindowStyle Hidden -NoProfile -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -Command Enable-WindowsOptionalFeature -Online -FeatureName NetFx3 -All

Hope this helps others installing .net 3.5

windows 11

Thank you,

I have seen this and similar issues come up so I wanted to share my experience. First of I am running Windows 11 24H2. When I had 22H2 I did not seem to have this problem with the game on any version.

Problem: Dune 2000 freezes or crashes

In my experience I have tried the disc version, gruntmods version and dunemaster version. In everyone I can make it to the map screen after selecting a house and then the game freezes and locks up as soon as the voice over begins.

I read on another thread that turning v-sync off in the control panel to your graphics card works. I tried it and it did work but I had to get off the computer because I had work in the morning. Fairly certain I had found the issue I tried other versions of the game and it failed to be a solution. It wouldn't even work for the version it seemed to work on the night before.

I'm hoping someone will have a solution to this issue soon or in the near future. If anyone has a possible solution please let me know.

But instead dune keeps crashing, and the more I try to play it, the more it crashes.

Don't search the problem at customer side, search it in your knowledge and the program.

It's annoying. 20 years ago dune ran stable! What did 20 years improve...?

Now first a moderator will moderate my topic, and he is for sure going to block my post.

I'm sure that my idea to say "make things better" is not going conform with modern mindsets.

Well, if it will go that way, I can also delete the game.

first of all, thanks for this great game

Since today I get the error message when I try to connect to online multiplayer game in Dune2000:

error :closing link: 'name' by prothid.ny.us.gamesurge.net (G-Lined)

It would be so great if there is an easy fix for that.

decided to create..... stealth MCV  by duplicating exsisting ones +rename +more hp  and there is big issue when i start skirmish ai refuses to build base. it sells conyard instantly after deployment aaaaand the mcv is stealth one,not original.. how to make it work to start with 2 mcv instead of one without breaking game?

Screenshot attached.  In the screenshot, the files with names like "c w," were saved with names like jon1, jon2 etc, not sure if this a Unicode issue?  The saves actually save and load fine but I can't tell which is which easily!

Saves made in the campaign map between battles seem to work ok.

I've been getting back into Dune 2000 recently, and I'm having a blast, but I've hit a bit of a wall in my strategy. I usually play as the Atreides, and while I can hold my own in the early game, things start to go south once the AI gets more aggressive.

I have gone through these resources/articles https://forum.dune2k.com/topic/2384-dune-2000-tactics/ and they are quite good but I wanted to learn more from community.

Does anyone have any tips for managing resources better or dealing with those pesky Harkonnen raids? Also, I'm curious if there's a way to better utilize the units—sometimes I feel like I'm just throwing them at the enemy without much strategy.

Any advice or even fun tactics you like to use would be awesome! Thanks in advance!
