After a long period of quiet I am pleased to announce the release of update 1.6.1.9.1! This is a major update with a large amount of fixes and new features, the most important one being the addition of windowed mode.


Rise of the Mercenaries mission 3 is making good progress and I hope to release it soon. In the mean time, check out the new website for the mod, http://riseofthemercenaries.com/

Full change log:

  • Improved Game Launcher, with added options for launching missions, support for the D2K+ toolkit and Rise Of The Mercenaries

  • Support for windowed display, as well as enhanced compatibility with Windows 8/8.1/10

  • Improved uninstaller, will now thoroughly check for and terminate running processes related to the game
