Actually describe what happens on ur screen when a saved game is finally loaded.

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 ???

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.

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...
The Specs at Work:
P4HT 2.6 / 1GB Ram / 6800Ultra AGP

Specs in my House
AMD [email protected] / 2GB Ram / 2X 7800 GTX in SLI

Thanks!

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:
