Wizardry 8 latest patch fixed EXE... Why is it nowhere to be found?

I saw a couple threads on this from a few days ago, but there were no answers. I thought I'd bring it back up top. It's hard to understand.

Farlight released a fixed EXE for the patch on the 21st. I included the .nfo below, but you can get it yourself right here on isonews in the "patch" category.

I've searched far and wide now, newsgroups, gcw here, etc.... No one seems to have a clue where this release is. If someone reading this has it please submit it to gcw so it can go in the exe archive!

Need help.

I've downloaded the file, w812.exe then when I click on it, it promts me to extract it. So I click 'extract' and insert the password above(siedler) and I end up with three files

fdx-w812.nfo
fdx-w812.rar
fdx-w812.sfv

Now what am I supposed to do with the three files.I clicked on the fdx-w812.nfo but it says that "Microsoft System Information cannot open this file.This file is corrupted". Help me please.

Hey I think I've managed to figure it out. I used notepad to open the .nfo file and then used winace to extract the .rar file.

But I still have 2 questions:

1.Am I doing the right thing?
2.What is the use of the .svf file?

Did you try to use WinRar with .rar file? If not, try it.

I've been looking everywhere for an updated patch for this great game. Thank you so much!

Any clue on when you can get a "patched EXE" for for the latest 12_23 patch?

I want to thank all the people who responded to the call for these fixed Wizardry EXEs in this thread and got them in the executable archive in a hurry.

We now have working fixed EXEs for both the 12_12 (1.2.2) and 12_23 (1.2.4) patches.

The level of support on this website is awesome. There will be more patches for this game, we can only hope for the same response.

Gosh I love being able to leave the rotten CD in its case.

Wrong! The latest NO-CD patch posted on GCW (as of Jan 4, 2002) was originally mislabeled as a 1.2.4 patch, when in reality it was a better 1.2.2 patch (the fairlight patch needed a copied CD in the drive still, but the softbeard patch works without any CD needed at all). As far as I can tell, there isn't a 1.2.4 no-cd out yet (definitely not on GCW) - I guess the crackers aren't interested in Wiz8 or else the distro networks are horribly inefficient these days (with so few up-to-date crack sites, you'd think they could get them to people a lot faster; oh well)

Hmm... According to GCW's Wiz8 page, the 1.2.2 and 1.2.4 patches use the same EXE file. I somehow doubt this, as they are dated differently and there aren't any other significant files that differ in dates in the two patches. I'll have to run a binary comparison on the unpatches 1.2.2 and 1.2.4 EXE files to see for myself. My guess is that someone at GCW decided that there was no difference because the game still works after replacing the 1.2.4 EXE with a patched 1.2.2 EXE, and since the sizes were the same. It could be me that's wrong though...

I believe if you apply the never patch with the old .exe file. Then the words in the menu will be jumbled up. For example when you right click on strengh it will shows info on inteligence or something like that.

If anybody ever find the newest fixed exe for the game. Please post the info here.

btw, **bump**
