• New areas to explore ( Buccaneer's Cave, Wrong, Empath Abbey and Minoc )
• New game intro which draws from the original classic game
  
• Enhancements to existing areas
• New plot details and other subtle refinements
  
• Numerous enhancements to the core gameplay such as:

• A prototype of a customizable journal system so you can take notes on your journey
• The ";" key now gives you extra information, such as reagent counts, projectile counts, etc.
• New "Gameplay Settings" from the Options menu
  
• Many more tunings and tweaks to the core Project Britannia systems ( for the nitty gritty details, check the change log )

This is not a final release of these sections of the game, but we feel that they are reasonably polished enough for public consumption (read: scrutiny). If you find problems with the release, want to give us kudos, or (heaven forbid) want to tell us what you really think, as always you can find us lurking about in our forums. That is, when we're not busily scratching away at building Milestone 5.

Download the Milestone 4 Release

The 375Mb M4 Release is available for download here at U6P. To download it, right-click this link and save the installer to your hard drive.

Installation

If you already have M1, M2, or M3 installed, you will probably want to un-install it before you install M4. They may not play nice together.

To install, download the .zip file, and extract it into a temporary folder. Then, run the setup.exe program. It will set up all your shortcuts for you. Please leave feedback in the forums.

A few notes: If you have trouble getting it running, check the following:

1. Remove all junk from your My Document\Dungeon Siege\Bits folder.
2. Check to make sure there aren't any stray .dsres or .dsmod files in
   Program Files\Microsoft Games\Dungeon Siege\Resources or
   Program Files\Microsoft Games\Dungeon Siege\mods.

To uninstall, use Windows Add/Remove Programs or the Uninstall shortcut in the Start Menu.
