Menolly4 2 Posted October 5, 2017 Share Posted October 5, 2017 (edited) I just tried to create a new DM-charakter. The picture of the DM aside of the chest carrying imp does not show up. I can choose all options like path, name and so on. Then I started the game and I had no picture of the DM agaiin and could not move at all. To check I deinstalled the Patch and went back to CM-Patch 1.50 and everything worked fine. So I think this must be a bug in the patch. I'm playing on Windows XP. Perhaps someone could try the creation of DM to confirm the bug. Edit: The creation of any other charakter than DM worked fine. Edited October 5, 2017 by Menolly4 Link to comment

Works fine for me. But this is the second report of that exact problem. What language is your installation? Link to comment
Menolly4 2 Posted October 6, 2017 Share Posted October 6, 2017 Installation is german. Original Sacred 2 + Ice & Blood - not Steam or Gold. Link to comment

Just created a new DM on two diffent pcs, works fine for me on both. Installation language is german. I have Sacred 2 Gold in two variants. One is physical dvds, the other was bought at amazon as a download. There is one special thing with the version from amazon. I do NOT have to activate it, but the CM-Patch works fine. Also all aother mods, that I have tried. If ti matters, one pc runs win 7 pro 64 bit, the other win 10 pro 64 bit. Link to comment

Original graphics19.zip(contains DM model and animations) and, possibly, sectop16.zip are securom-protected. DRM present from Ascaron. Original s2logic.dll contained decoding functions, which GOG and Steam versions do not. Thus, once original s2logic.dll is replaced, the game can no longer access those achive's contents.

Flix 5,116 Posted October 6, 2017 Author Share Posted October 6, 2017 So no one with the disk version will be able to use Cm 1 60? Link to comment
dimitrius154 612 Posted October 6, 2017 Share Posted October 6, 2017 (edited) The encoding is unitary, I believe(there is no unique decoding hash for each copy). By replacing the encoded files with decoded ones the problem is solved. Edited October 6, 2017 by dimitrius154 Link to comment
Flix 5,116 Posted October 6, 2017 Author Share Posted October 6, 2017 How big is graphics19.zip? I guess I'll just add the gog version to the patch. Link to comment

WallsOfJericho 18 Posted October 6, 2017 Share Posted October 6, 2017 (edited) Hi, Dmitriy(по-английски так по-английски) Today I create new char (HE) I played Sacred 2 (CM-Patch v.0160, ru_RU) for 3 hours. I walked on the map (& dungeons, open/close inventory, it's all good. No bugs, no freezes, no crashes. Now this game looks like pretty good. Thanks you so much, Dim P.S Извиняюсь если что не так, но после универа вкрай забыл весь английский Edited October 6, 2017 by WallsOfJericho 1 Link to comment

Androdion 870 Posted October 7, 2017 Share Posted October 7, 2017 Did you replace the physxExt file in the PAK directory and changed the instructions on the options.txt file, as Dmitriy instructed earlier? Try that, it worked on my end. Back from afar. Link to comment

I have 09.17.0524 (gtx1060 6gb) The problem solved by removing Hi-Res Textures (gr20-24.zip) that I just installed.

AlexGriffin 0 Posted October 8, 2017 Share Posted October 8, 2017 With the Trimmed Elite Textures installed should set Texture quality to "default" or "Elite" when testing 160 Beta? Link to comment

Recath 5 Posted October 8, 2017 Share Posted October 8, 2017 I'd like to ask how to access the elite textures, I run it on gold version on steam but I don't have the option of elite textures. Link to comment
