A remake of The Settlers IV: The New Settlers IV - a copy of the original game with extra features. New features are meant to improve the game without changing the basis.

What are the targets?

  • create an open game which works and looks like The Settlers IV (well-optimised, imitator of S4)
  • using original files (textures, sounds, maps)
  • making interface very similar to the original one but better, HD

Extra features:

  • supporting all standard resolutions
  • support for Linux and maybe MacOS and Android (Windows is the default OS)
  • smarter AI based on the original AI (but better and being able to remember things, learn, ally AI can trade with player etc.)
  • extra buttons in the menu: 'options' to set more interface or game settings, like:
    • keyboard/mouse settings
    • graphics settings
    • sound settings
    • game settings (like: messages, mini map colours transparency etc.)
  • improved economy system (mostly by 'fixing' issues known in the original game)
  • 'fixing' known issues from the original game (especially network problems)
  • extra game modes or game settings that can be selected before starting a game (button that allows to change the game mode, e.g. classic game mode)
  • additional hidden command prompt for developers (it will show extra messages and allow to type in commands)
  • playable Dark Tribe
  • more advanced map editor that is compatible with the original one as much as possible

Are you interested in the project?

I am more game designer than programmer. I can program, however when it comes to complex maths calculations, I feel lost. If you want to help, then join the project and let's make an open, free version of Settlers IV with extras - under the MIT license.
