Welcome stranger or friend!

What is this site?

Settlers II.net is a resource for this old DOS game that was built with Amiga tools. The aim of the site is to provide accurate information that helps modding and expanding the original game by providing technical information and tools. The site also caters to people who are new to the game and just wish to know a bit more about it to get started with it.

In addition the site works as an archive.

Vision

To provide easy-to-use map generator, maps database, online localization tool & font editor.

Wild idea: generate game demo with chosen map, and run it on DOSBox in the browser.

More wild ideas: graphics editor, texture set editor, sound editor, music editor. Full modding.

Contributing

We do not yet have a proper contribution guide, but in general you're welcome to do changes and create a pull request with your changes. You can contact the main author Merri through Return to the Roots Discord Server if you have questions!

Getting started

The project uses bun instead of npm:

npm i -g bun
git clone https://github.com/Merri/settlers2.git
cd settlers2
bun i
bun run dev

In a couple of seconds you should be able to go to localhost:4321. If you change the sources you will see the changes happen immediately in the browser, too.
