  • Sparks now fly from campfires (visual effect).

  • A sandstorm effect now occurs during the day in the Adanos Desert. It can be disabled by setting bShowPlatoSandStorm=0 in the gothic.ini file.

  • Various text and quest fixes.

  • Minor dialogue errors fixed.

  • Fixed an error in the dialogue with Bosper.

  • The hero's invisibility effect will no longer trigger when playing on DirectX 7.

  • Dexter's bodyguard, Ohař, no longer has a crossbow (requires a new game).

  • Gorax now sells the Fire Mage robe immediately without needing an additional dialogue where he went to the cellar.

  • The Mercenary's Heavy Forged Armor now looks like Mercenary armor (like Cipher's).

  • The intelligence bonus cap for 1st-4th Circle runes for all mages has been increased (i.e., it is now possible to gain more intelligence bonus on 1st-4th Circle runes, which increases damage).

  • Fixed dialogues with the Dark Teacher, where some lines did not match the voice acting.

  • Fixed an issue where the invisibility visual effect now also works on the Cloak of Darkness (Dark Mage, 3rd Circle).

  • Gritta and Fenia have had their voice acting replaced in some dialogues.

F0rtunos Additions


Summary of recent updates regarding classes:

  • The Necromancer received a boost in the previous update, and Hubaxis is now stronger in the late game because he reaches a higher level, while Archdemons were nerfed.

  • The Guru received a damage boost in the 5th and 6th Circles (late game) in this update, making them stronger.

  • Several helpers have been recruited to translate New Balance, and the translation is now progressing faster, with several hundred items translated daily.

  • The source of English scripts has been changed, primarily for foreign players. The long-term source of English from Nexus stopped updating scripts for some reason, with the last version uploaded on June 25, 2024. English scripts are now maintained by <@247341117220061184>. If you were using the previous English version, delete the AB_2024_En.vdf file (old English).
