Hi everyone,
I have a surprise for you, the KaM Remake has a new website!!
www.kamremake.com
We also have a new contact address. All KaM Remake related emails can be sent to:
contact@kamremake.com
As you can see we now have Facebook and Twitter pages, as well as a Youtube channel run by Shadaoe. Take a look at his first video, a trailer for the KaM Remake:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cjBwh0LLUFk
The site hosting and mailserver was made possible by Bur, the admin of the Russian fansite kamclub.ru, so many thanks to him for his generous assistance!
I hope you like it, please give feedback and follow us on our social networking pages 
Lewin and Krom.
P.S. The demo should be released this weekend! Stay tuned.

That is fantastic! What you have build in, I don´t know 10 years??? haha I played the game, as I was 6-12 years old and today Fans build a "better" KaM.
If the producer would see, which great job you have done...they would have you a contract in a big game company! The eye´s of the developers will fall out! Only one thing, that I can see, what is a little bit "originaly" is the animation.. for example the bowman shoots a little bit disfluency.
And the new Building FANTASTIC Great Job, and a nice trailer!
Edit: And how would was it, if in Facebook, the page doesn´t have the name: "KaM" but "Knights and Merchants (KaM)" Because so many people, who are playing the original game, find the page faster

Thank you for the complements!
I think the lack of smoothness of bowmen shooting in the trailer is because those scenes were taken from a multiplayer game where there are small pauses like that under bad conditions. It is certainly smooth in the game
Thanks for the suggestion! You are right, I renamed it to "Knights and Merchants Remake" so more people will find it.

Hello there,
you write the following system requirements:
"KaM Remake requires:
– Microsoft Windows 98, XP, Vista or Seven;
– 500MHz or faster processor;
– 256MB or more of RAM;
– 3D graphics accelerator OpenGL 1.4 compliant;
– Sound card."
I have on my "old games computer" only a Pentium II with 350MHz on which KaM TPR 1.60 runs really fluently (it needs only 233MHz and 64MB RAM original)
Will the remake also run there?
And why need I a 3D-Accelerator? KaM is only a 2D-Game. 
Felix

When comes the new version of the Game/demo??
With the multiplayer mode?
Because I have a older version, but they´re is no multiplayer and an error comes out: "access violation at address 004ca916 in module KaM_Remake.exe Read of address 00000004
What does that mean/or when comes the new version  ???

It might run on that computer, but the KaM Remake will have higher system requirements because we are writing it for modern computers. If we want to make the AI smarter and improve other aspects of the game it will require more CPU power and RAM. The game itself does not need 256MB of RAM, it uses 50MB-100MB I think. But you need some RAM for your operating system too.
The terrain in KaM is 3D. The map tiles are stretched in 3D to make hills etc. Also a graphics card helps rendering the 2D sprites faster than just doing it on the CPU as far as I know. All of our rendering in done in OpenGL, so your system will need to support that. It does not need a powerful graphics accelerator though.

I'm not sure what that means, I'd need more information. Which version are you running? Because r2087 is a stable build. You must install it over the first multiplayer demo though. The Knight explained how to do it in your news feed.
The new demo will hopefully be release this Sunday. When it is released we will be announcing it on the website/Facebook/Twitter as well as this and other forums.

Thanks for the video, I can see what is wrong now. You installed the r2087 patch without having r1793. See, r2087 is a PATCH for r1793 which you can download here:
http://krom.reveur.de/KAM_Remake/KaM_Remake_Multip...110613. rar
So install that, THEN patch with r2087.
Future versions will use an EXE installer that makes it clearer.

Thanks, now it works. But it is normal, that I can play only via Network and not via Internet?
As I can see, too. The polish language in the game doesn´t exist really!??! If you want, I can translate the game into Polish. I could translate it in german,too. But I see that this job was done by an other man

I had an Idea. The serfs only transport 1 thing (for example: 1 Bread or 1 Stone). My Idea is that the serfs get a wheelbarrow (like in the new "Market-House" ). So they can transport 2 or more things. What did you mean?

You can play over the internet by typing in an address on the LAN page. Join this server: kam.xzaz.nl
We don't need a Polish or German translator, but thank you. Someone else has already done this since r2087.

I'm not sure that's a good idea... Also the sprites will take a while to make. We'll see.

@Felix: System requirements are rough estimates. I think even slower PC with less RAM will handle it, but big maps (e.g.176*176) may be laggy due to larger sizes and more units on them.
Remake requires 3D acceleration because even slowest built-in Intel GPU is faster than GDI+ or other compatible technology. Also it allows more flexibility (alpha channels, 3D, hardware interpolations). Besides KaM Editor was written in OpenGL, so as my other older tools - I know OpenGL good enough, can't say the same about GDI or D2D

Yes you can! Place them in the Maps or MapsMP folder (MapsMP is for multiplayer) using the same structure as the maps provided. Take a look at one of those. You must place your map in a folder, then name all of the files and the folder the same. You only need to put the .MAP and .DAT files there. Read the Description.txt file under Maps if you are unsure.

But if I use it for Multiplayer, only the host need the map??
My feedback, of testing the new version 2,5hours:
-At a few moments, online they are stocking in the game and "waiting" for xxxplayer.... but possible, that the player has a low internet
-It is possible to build the new house online? I can´t see it!??!
-A few translationsproblems in Polish edition
--> But a very good game! And the synchro I´m testing, it is very good!

No, at the moment everybody needs the map because we don't have file transfers. You'll have to send it to people when you play with them.
Waiting for player happens because the connection is variable over the internet. This is excepted to happen.
Yes, the marketplace can be built in online games. It becomes available when you build the metallurgist's. (gold smelter)
Hopefully our Polish translator can fix the mistakes, I'd rather only have 1 person working on the translations at once.
