Dark Colony in 1024×768? It’s possible!
We recently came across a really interesting project on GitHub that definitely deserves some attention from every Dark Colony fan.
The project, created by endotermic, takes our old favourite Dark Colony and gives it some new life by fixing and improving the game for modern computers. One of the coolest things is the ability to run the game in 1024×768 resolution! After all these years, seeing Dark Colony in a higher resolution is pretty awesome. :)
And that’s not all. The project also includes various fixes and improvements, including better support for running the game on modern versions of Windows, cursor fixes, playing without the original CD, Map Editor improvements and more.
What we like most is that this isn't some random project – it’s clearly made by someone who really knows and enjoys Dark Colony. It’s exactly the kind of fan-made project that can give an old game a second life.
If you have a few minutes, it’s definitely worth checking out and seeing what has already been done. The project is still being developed, so who knows what might be added in the future.
You can also find a link to the project on the right side of our website.
I would argue that they know what they are doing, the mod/patch however we will call it, is a AI generated thing, done by current Claude LLM. Whole description how each thing tweak works and general readme file are also AI generated. No new information regarding structure of DC data files is documented, and as the patch is messing with compiled exe file so there can be some stability issues, I dont see any reverse engineered source to play with it and do proper patches.
