Sacred - enabling gore with 1.7?
I just got Sacred (US version) and patched it up to 1.7 but I can't seem to find the procedure for enabling "gore". Anybody know how to do it? I seem to recall from GG that it involved changing a setting in a config file or something. thx

I still don't have this game (no time), but I remember reading about this a while back. Basically, what you need to do is do a search online for either (a) the European .exe or (b) the European no-CD patch (which I don't have a link for and, um, if I did, would that be against the Code of Conduct? I'm not asking b/c I have the link in a drawer somewhere. Really, I'm just curious).
At any rate, a nice google search should do the trick for you. If nothing else, someone out there will likely have the information for you.

Good news, the extra content will be available for free download for the original version.
Weeeeeeee! I guess I have to start over now.The day has finally arrived. The English, French, and Czech Sacred PLUS downloads are now available for those owning the original versions of Sacred.

For right now, it is against the CoC. Whether it remains that way or not - I honestly don't know. Until something official comes out, though, we're going to abide by the ol' Gone Gold CoC. In the meanwhile, keep such links to email. Or PM.ohbalto wrote:the European no-CD patch (which I don't have a link for and, um, if I did, would that be against the Code of Conduct?

It's an expansion for Sacred. Free to the people who already own Sacred.Meghan wrote:what the heck is Sacred PLUS? is this a fancy way of saying 1.7 patch?
I think they are gonna box it up for stores on the 29th of October. And that the game will come with the original Sacred.

Sacred Plus incorporates all of the feedback from the player-community since the first release of Sacred. This includes an improved multi-player experience, an optimized interface and completely revised balancing. Furthermore, this version contains many completely new features to make adventuring in Ancaria even more exciting.Meghan wrote:what the heck is Sacred PLUS? is this a fancy way of saying 1.7 patch?
New features:
? Two new regions
? Two extensive main quests
? Five new adversaries
? One new enemy boss
? Six new armor sets
? Fifteen new types of weapons
? Includes all previous updates to date
All these new features will be available as a download free of charge for all owners of the original version before the release of the New Edition.

Based on several headaches tonight followed by some time in the official Sacred forums I can say with certainty:
* Sacred PLUS does not contain the 1.7 patch changes.
* You should really install 1.7 then the Sacred PLUS update.
* Any saved games you have *including* games that were started with 1.7, will be buggy once you install the Sacred PLUS update. You must start a new campaign.
* None of this, of course, is in the Readme. Shitheads. The support guy on their forum said basically, "Everyone knows you need to start a new campaign. We didn't need to put it in the Readme. We've been saying that for awhile now."
Hey asswipe? I just want to play my game. I'm even willing to peruse the ReadMe. I don't want to spend 45 minutes of my life... 45 minutes I will *never* get back again mind you... reading through posts by guys/girls/furries named BigFluf , HorrorScope and HeroOfTheNorth.

What a f'in moron. Apparently the world revolves around Sacred's forums..."Everyone knows you need to start a new campaign. We didn't need to put it in the Readme. We've been saying that for awhile now."
I installed the game for the first time a few nights and patched to 1.7. The very next day they released Sacred+ and I knew absolutely nothing about it so I went to their website to get some answers:
Do I install it over 1.7?
Do I need to uninstall, reinstall and then apply the Sacred+?
Will I lose my characters?
Will I lose my saved campaign?
Basic, simple questions, right?. I searched their forums for 30 minutes and couldn't find any official answers. None. STUPID STUPID STUPID.

That's my paraphrase. To be fair he mentioned that it is recommended to start a new game. He was then asked:"Everyone knows you need to start a new campaign. We didn't need to put it in the Readme. We've been saying that for awhile now."
To which he replied:Any particular why this rather important point is not mentioned anywhere in the Sacred Plus README.HTML?!
The thread is here.Because this "rather important" point has been mentioned everytime a new patch/update/download was released
I can help with some of your questions.Sponge wrote:What a f'in moron. Apparently the world revolves around Sacred's forums...

Yes you should install it over 1.7 if you want the changes/fixes in 1.7. Apparently you can install it and play it without 1.7 but since 1.7 fixed quite a bit you really want 1.7 installed first then Sacred Plus.
I uninstalled the whole damn thing, reinstalled it, patched it to 1.7 and then installed Sacred Plus. Works fine... so far...
You will not lose your characters just by installing Sacred Plus. They say you can export them and start a new campaign but my guess is there could be bugs.
You will not lose your saved campaign once you install Plus but it will be buggy. You should really start over. Which sucks.

Have installed all the new patches and Sacred Plus. Fired up a new character and played for a number of hours.
SO far no bugs. I have noticed new armor and weapons that are available early in the game. Some are pretty good looking.
Have noticed that low end cratures no longer attack you which removes that annoyance. Gameplay seems much the same. Some of the rebalancing issues are noticable immediately.
Only new glitch so far is that you can't always mount your horse, particularly if he is in or around tree, bushes etc. No big deal as yoou can just walk to another screen and whistle.
Blood is still there in the form of a red spray so those that are concerned about losing it, its not a big deal particularly when there is such an indicator.

This happened to me last night but I'd forgotten how to whistle! I remember doing it in the demo when it first came out but now I don't recall what the whistle key is... little help please?Ripstar wrote: Only new glitch so far is that you can't always mount your horse, particularly if he is in or around tree, bushes etc. No big deal as yoou can just walk to another screen and whistle.

I've been playing a gladiator the last few days. He's only lvl 19 atm, but I'm having fun.
Hardest thing to do is figure out how to best spend skill points.
I've taken Dual Wield - Agility - Constitution, thinking about taking Armor at lvl 20, but not sure.
I haven't spent a single stat point yet, never sure how to best spend those either.
I haven't run into any bugs yet.
