Can someone else confirm that the CZECH or UK No CD Patch works on the German version? I gonna try it...,I'll tell you about my result,hope it works ;)

Okay i have the Australian 1.8 version of this game installed.
When i try the English version - the game will start but in single player the screen goes blank and thats it. With the mutliplayer side of things every NPC in the game want to sell me a horse!!


- Even though im not a professional at this sort of thing, even i can tell the the global version of the EXE and Res files makes a difference.

Hello
I'm french but I'm playing with the UK version.
When I want to play with the NO-CD/Fixed.EXE (English or Czech) I have a error message :
"Le point d'entrée de procédure RestoreLastError est introuvable dans la bibliothèque de liaisons dynamique Kernel32.dll"

What can do

Tks

@KeyoBard

Have you tried replacing Sacred.org with your patched Sacred.exe ?

Yes.
I've tried without changing the file and with it
I've modified the checkfiles.txt (delete the Sacred.exe line)

It's because you are using WinME/9x (not XP), right ? You have to replace the RestoreLastError entries with SetLastError.
I used the RestoreLastError Fixer patch by SnD (use google to find it)
But this NoCD don't work with the UK version anyway (I have the same problem [Win98SE/Sacred UK-International version]).

Hi...
I've got almost the same problem as KeyoBard...
When I want to start a new game or import the old character - screen always slowly goes black... And I can't see anything only hear the sound of the game... What is this?? :confused:

And one more thing - when I go in or out some dungeon I'm always teleported to the island with Seraphims and cann't go back... What do you know about that?? :eek:

Please. help me somehow because I cann't start the new game...

Well that means that your Sacred.org is bad...

Well.. Few minutes ago I saw a post with the same problem and done what was written there and it helped me to solve this problem...

So this post was a result of a hurry... Sorry!! :o

I fell like such a bag of sticks!!! (EG STUPID)

how this fix works:-

1. Patch your game to version 1.8.****.
2. leave you original "Play CD" in drive. -Run game and check files.
or
Remove 'sacred.exe' from checkfile list.

3. Rename your 'sacred.exe' files to 'sacred.org' (you might want to make a backup also).
4. copy the new 'sacred.exe' and 'Caf.dll' to the game directory.
5. Run sacred.exe

NOTE: this hack works by pulling info from sacred.org, so i will bug out if you use it on you if you dont do step 3 correctly.

Thanks Gnozal, I can play now. I'm playing with this patch : "sacred_plus_eng.exe" (the UK version for me, maybe I'm wrong) and the nocd works.

Please, for the love of god, TELL us what was written in that other post and what you did!

I have the same problem with the black screen. Also in the character selection screen the characters have weird graphics.

Here you are... :)

Update sacred 1.8.2.6
rename YOUR sacrd.exe to sacred.org
download no-cd from gcw
extract from crack only sacred.exe and caf.dll
play the game

Didnt i just say that??

heh trust me, I got that before I posted, but I thought you were referring to another solution.

Anyway, no matter what I did, the screen always turned black, I'm using the older fake nocd image now from gcw and that works as intended in the readme of it.
