The download for Dungeon of Darkness is split in two fractions: the game data and the game executable (or source code). The data is distributed as a single ZIP file. The executables are in ZIP files (DOS, Windows) or in .tar.gz files (Linux). The sourcecode is in .tar.gzOnce you have completed the download, you should unpack these files to the same directory.
For more detailed instructions, see the readme file.
As an extra, you can also download the manual and walkthough.
Game datafiles
The game datafiles are included in a ZIP files, identical for all supported platforms. Simply unzip it them the directory where you want the game to be installed.darkdata.zip
Game binaries
DOS
Simply download the ZIP file and unpack it in the same directory where you unzipped the datafiles. You don't need any additional files.darkdos.zip
Windows
Download the ZIP file and unpack it in the same directory as where you put the datafiles. In addition to the main executable, you will need the Allegro 4.0 DLL installed on your system, which is not included in the distribution. You can grab a copy from the Files section at allegro.cc.darkwin.zip
Linux
Download the .tar.gz file and unpack it in the same directory where you unpacked the game datafiles. You will need to have the Allegro shared library installed on your system. If you don't have it, you'll have to get Allegro from allegro.cc and install it. The binary was created and tested under SuSE Linux 8.0. If it doesn't work for you, you'll have to recompile the sources.dark-0.8.0-bin.tar.gz
Source code
If you want to build the executable from sources, you'll need to have the GCC compiler as well as Allegro installed and working on your system. You will get several warnings right now when compiling the sources. These will be fixed eventually, for now just ignore them. See the readme file for further details on compiling the sources.dark-0.8.0-src.tar.gz
