You know.. It's not about the quality of the game.. It's about feelings to this. If u found something that is near to your heart in the last 2 parts of Gothic, you understand me. Most likely, you do not imagine what is Gothic apart from blades and dragons.. So.. I can only wish u good luck with Neversummer 2 ;)
Besides Gothic and Neverwinter are 2 different types of games all together.
Obviously Sir Moan Alot likes NWN2 since it uses the D&D system.
Others like Gothic for its free style etc.
I love both, G3 has its bugs.
And NWN2 has its share of bugs too, some game stopping bugs.
*djsin - files in archive you posted are from version 1.07 not 1.08, and it's mod not crack, i don't need a mod, i don't need a "performance boost", "performance tweaks" like raymerjacque wrote.
In fact i think raymerjacque should change name of "his" crack coz if all dll's and exe are from razor crack version 1.07 it's 1.07, it won't work like 1.08 coz it's not 1.08.
I need a 1.08 nodvd crack to play without dvd inserted:
as far as i observed it, all fixes from the 1.08 patch are working with that noDVD
@Grumpy: why did you remove my link?? it was only a google-search! :eek:
so is google a warez site now?
(the original link was leading to the downloadpage of a torrent file and was therefor not forbidden too... a torrent file gives you just the information where you can find the something in the net - as google does too. Both links are finaly not leeding to illegal material, just to a noDVD patch!)
so i guess you all are capable to use google:
"Gothic 3 Crack 1.08 Created by Pheonixxx_cz"
if someone have this pls upload it, thanks in advance
Megagames has posted recently fake 1.08 crack -
http://megagames.com/cracks/html/921060_0.htm
but there is nothing connected to 1.08 in their archive - every file is from 1.07 version so do not expect any change in engine and game performance...
i´m currently downloading "Gothic 3 Crack 1.08 Created by Pheonixxx_cz" (26.10MB) using bittorrent but the downlod hangs at 94.5% this is so frustrating:mad:
edit: 100% and it works! didnt check every fix but crossbow handling for example is fixed
When you dled it then upload and post here link ;) And btw ray crack works on Polish 1.08 version ;)

Good.. pretty good.. But does any1 know when new patch is coming?
After a VERY frustrating time playing in nordmar to get the heavy normarian armor, I pop it on to find out its not better than light merc armour. Is this stuff STILL broken after the 1.08 patch, or, is it because of using the crack. Should I maybe remove the cracked stuff and use the dvd?
VERY irritating.
Its lucky this is still gothic at heart, or, it would be a coaster right now. gods.
Oh, and that phoenix crack thingame, the exe and all other files are version 1.7
meh

Is there a new crack out for the 1.09 Version?

AFAIK 1.09 atm is only beta..
yup, and now that they finished the demo they might work on another patch. It is ridiculous how many patches come out for games these days. Release-Patches, c'mon! Publishers are selling sh*t to us, well, nothing new, but this year it is much worse than usual.
The Ambient Noise isn't working anymore, don't know why, it worked for a while. after applying 1.08, even though it wasn't meant to fix the Soundbug...
Its lucky this is still gothic at heart, or, it would be a coaster right now. gods.
A coaster you say?
One interesting thing I done...
I took patched 1.08 version and put only engine.dll from 1.07 reloaded crack.
And it run the game. Not tested playing itself, so maybe something does not work. And probably some patching stuff will miss too from 1.08 engine.dll.
Anyway, when I tried to do same with 1.09 patched game it didn't worked so be warned.
Should the VirtualCD image also work with the 1.09 patch of the game?
I did all the steps explained in the guide. One problem I have with VirtualCD is that the hook in the drive settings "Hide all virtual cd's ..." is always set, although I deactivated it. Obviously the prog don't let me deactivate this option.
I don't get the game started with the image, tried it many times. I got a image with virtualCD 8.0.0.4 from the original DVD, of course.
A coaster you say?
A coaster I do say.
there is a fixed exe for the 1.09?
when it will be released?
No asking for cracks for new patches released within 2 weeks. It is against rule #6.
I'm having a load problem.
I'm using the 1.08 cracked (Pheonixxx crack) version, and I can star a new game easily, I play, then I save and exit the game. When I wanna load that game I saved, it loads the game, but the image freezes on the moment the save was made, I can move, and do every move, but I can't see.
Does anyone know how to fix this please?
I wanna play so badly. =/
Thx.

AHEuhAUHEuaUHe funny guy. ^^
Well... I started a new game, played like 1:30 hours, and saved the game. Closed the game, later when I entered in the game, and loaded my saved one, it loads, but the image it's freezed. U know the thumbnail of the saved game? So, that's what I see. I just see the compass and items glows when I move mouse or press the keys, but my character and the world image is not showing, it's frozen at the moment I saved my game.
And I tested another thing. When I play, save the game, exit to the menu, and load the game without closing the game and returning to Windows, it loads and I can play normaly.
Sounds crazy, but it's true.
And it's no hardware issue, I'm running at max settings and all OK.
Does anyone have a clue about this plz ??? :confused:

I can confirm that the "fake" or "partial" v1.08 crack works. The crossbow fix works, there are no redness inside the caves, and the animals attack more fairly. However, the issue of the solar flare is still present. It doesn't pop up all the time like it used to but it still does once in a while.

If you are referring to the v1.08 crack which 'raymerjacque' supplied then it is not correct to label it as a fake.
raymerjacque said from the very beginning that some of the files are from v1.07. That was never hidden from users. So it was never intentionally passed off as v1.08.
Yes it is a 'partial' but from most reports its the best way to go at present. ;)
Actually, it's closest to 1.07 & 1.08 combo, plus personal mod.
I discovered what was the error here with me.
I'm telling the solution in case it happens with someone too.
After the load, if your screen has a freeze image, just go to the settings and lower your resolution, go back to the game and all will be OK. After that you can set your resolution to the one that you were using before.
;)

Correct it is a variation of 1.07 & 1.08, what the patch did not fix tho was then manually fixed ( hence the all the additional files ), we also tweaked the hell out of it to give users an additional performance boost. I never garunteed that everything will work for everyone, it was tested on only a few systems, but side effects could be different for various people. to date it is the only existing nodvd patch for 1.08 that i know of ( still not sure if the phoenixx one works ). the modding part is the real bonus tho. my system is pretty descent, and even with me the game stuttered alot, now i am able to play the game without getting frustrated or being stunlocked by a boar.... and for everyone asking about 1.09 nodvd patch, i just really don't have the time at the moment, has been a really busy month for me, and besides, they will be releasing a string of patches, so it is pointless to make a nodvd patch for each and everyone.Maybe if they release a really big combat or major changes patch it would be worth it, but 1.09 fixed very little, only a savegame bug ....

Like I posted earlier, the partial v1.08 no-dvd works very well except for the sunglare bug still found once in a while. e.g. I encountered the sunglare bug inside Ortega's cave.
Here is a link for those running Gothic 3 with 1GB of RAM. Normally, I tend to stay away from .ini tweaks b/c they're often of dubious value, but this one really worked for me. Definitely worth your time and it increased my enjoyment of Gothic 3 quite substantially.
Well, here is the link:

yes i know about that thread, i was browsing the jowood forum imensly when i was messing with the ini file included in the patch, you will find alot of those settings included already in the file, are you sure you replaced your old ini with the new one ? also remember that if you have more than 1gb or less ram the settings would have to be altered again for best performance.
Btw, have any of you played NWN2 yet, did you know that the game is only partialy completed ? I was messing around and stumbled onto npc dialogues for the romance toons and found that only 2 npc's could be romanced, so if you play male or female you can only get into relationship with one person, kinda very limited for what the game was designed to be, anyway, when i did some searching on the net i found out that the developers had to cut that part of development short due to lack of funding and because they didn't have time to complete it in time for release date. it kinda pissed me off big time, so many developers nowadays pushing to get the software out to get the cash rolling in and not doing a descent job to complete the packadge. O well, another game i waisted my money on. :mad:
whoa, you're joking, right? Oh my, I miss the DOS-Days when Game's were what they meant to be. I miss Games like Ufo: Enemy Unknown, Dungeon Keeper or the good old Doom. They didn't sell unfinished stuff back then, instead they even had enough time to put in Easter Eggs and Bonus Material...oh, and they didn't had any Copy Protection and made it to the top of the Game-Industry anyway...
Well, to get back to the Topic of the Thread:
My Information that the Ambient Sound worked once is wrong. I just felt I would hear ambient sounds because of the stuttering (you can hear birds, waterfalls etc. while saving or stuttering). I wonder if they plan to give us a Hotfix for this. I can live without a crack if only the game itself would work as it should.

Nope, it is the publisher that pushes the software onto the market as soon as possible. For the developer's, the software is their child; do you think they like a premature birth, with all the usual complications?! ;)
Oh my, I miss the DOS-Days when Game's were what they meant to be. I miss Games like Ufo: Enemy Unknown, Dungeon Keeper or the good old Doom.
Sorry, DOOM had quite a couple of patches, mainly with online play and modem configuration. Actually, bugfree releases go back into the days when there was no way to patch games because A) there was no Internet, or any easy-to-access world wide network from which any user could get any patch for any game or B) the game was/is run from a read-only media. That's microcomputers in the 80's (don't wanna mention names because I am majorly biased: visit my homepage ;)) and, of course, all kinds of consoles (even today).

Ah, thnx for clarifying that, i am still pissed tho, when i play a game i like to go all out and explore every part, just knowing that it is not complete takes away the urge to click on the nwn2 icon .... altho now i am pissed at the developers for letting the publishers push them around like that :mad:

Woot! Great Collection! Hey, and you even provide a patch for Doom :D
And I see you are/have been quite attached to the C64, too...well, although I was only playing games instead of writing programs :P

uhm, who said i play gothic 3 ? , i may have explored gothic world a bit, but i never said i play it. And besides, atleast the gothic dev's are fixing and continueing work on gothic 3, nwn2 dev's made it clear that that part of the game will stay incomplete. you will probly find that some modding community will finnish that part of the game in the end....
My actual post is not about thread subject, but I must write it. I passed Gothic 3 game on ray crack ;) So it is pretty good in my opinion =] I know now 2/3 endings ^^ Now last one... Beliar ending! ]:-> And I have to tell you that not so much things are bugged. Invincible when using inventory is very usefull :P Only one bug is when you close it and try to take up a weapon and something attacks you then you can not do it or you will take weapon and you can not use it o_O So you must take it second time... Sry for such useless post, but I had to tell it. Wish my luck with third ending :D Now Medieval Total War II playing in progress :P

Well, The Easiest fix for this, is to go to the menu, and press in credits, after pressing credits, just hit "esc" key two times, an you are in the game!:)
I have a more annoying bug, that is the hair of ALL people, is in the ground, the funny thing is I have a PC at work, that works ok...:confused:
The Specs at Work:
P4HT 2.6 / 1GB Ram / 6800Ultra AGP
Specs in my House
AMD
