You mean you downloaded it, but it's not working? You ARE using DosBox, right?

EDIT: Nvm, at least this link works for me.

EDIT2: Unless you're having problems with extracting the files? It's working fine for me...

You are missing the Keen 3 execute file. You have to have a legal copy of Keen 3 and transfer this execute file to your Death to the Vorticons folder.

I see on my computer that my virus scanner says that the files are invalid.
Maybe can shikadi update the download on his site.

I have testing with the keen3.exe file but he gives the same problem.

Well, I removed the Keen3.exe on purpose because of legalty issues. As Syllypryde said, you need your own Keen3.exe file and you must use UNLZEXE on it.

I'm having problems to access the keenwiki right now, I'll check sometime soon if the upload is broken.
