Gothic 3 Community patch 1.73 has just been released! Or I was a big fan of Gothics 1 + 2, but Gothic 3 was a bit of a bug ridden let down. However, this patch from what I have seen so far looks very promising. One of the biggest off-putting factors about Gothic 3 was the fact that the fighting system was totally broke. Such an important feature of any hack n slash RPG being broke is off course a total game breaker, but from what I have seen so far the fighting has been totally fixed with this new patch which provides an 'Alternative AI' and 'Alternative Balancing' option. Now, the fighting in G3 takes strategy and skill, requires the need to block strikes, and yes, gives great pleasure when you time a special sword attack at just right time and can punish you brutally when u mess it up! Another big improvement that I noticed right away was how much more beautiful the game looked and how much better it was running. People who are familiar with Gothic 3 will know that the game starts off with a great big barney involving around 30+ ORcs and humans all hacking the crap out of each other. As if the games graphical requirements were not demanding enough, starting such a game in this way was never going to be a fantastic introduction to the game for anyone.

Rx_ August 24, 2015 - 4:04 am Great article with good advice. Here’s the update download: Gothic 3 Enhanced. In addition to this the patch includes a ModKit, the Gothic 3 Genome. Enormous work for the gothic community. However with this patch, providing the gamer sensibly accepts a bit of lag for the first minute or so whilst the game is still loading things up, after that, or when u reload ur save game right at the start, I have got to say its more less 60 FPS all the way (on my rig), give or take the odd 5-6 fps drop here and there.and that is right in the middle of a town, with 30+ NPCs all swinging like mad. I am indeed very excited about this patch as it looks as though it may have polished up the rough diamond that was the original (unfinished) Gothic 3 and turned it into a real gem. Although it is a 3 year old game the graphics are utterly stunning, both from a technical and an artistic standpoint. It is funny that I have just discovered this now with Risen just 3 days around the corner, as I now realise that I can finally play thru this game I paid £30 for on its release date back in October 2006.which means that PB dont get my money for Risen for quite some time! ![]() Gothic 3 Community Patch DownloadSystem Name Haswell Ranger Processor Intel i5 4690K 4.2GHz Motherboard ASUS Maximus VII Ranger Cooling Corsair H80 Hydro Series Cooler Memory 16GB DDR3 @ 1333MHz Video Card(s) ASUS RX480 Strix 8GB @1345MHz Storage OCZ Trion 100 240GB(OS) + 4TB HDD(s) Display(s) Samsung SE790C 34' Ultra-wide/Curved 3440x1440p 60hz Case Corsair 750D Obsidian Audio Device(s) Onboard - Logitech Z-5500 Digital 5.1 Speaker System/Roccat Kave XTD 5.1 Headphones Power Supply Corsair HX850i Modular Mouse Logitech G700 Keyboard Corsair K70 LUX - Blue Switches Software Windows 10 Pro 64bit. What I'm more interested in was the expansion for #3, it showed huge potential but was buggy as all fuck. I wouldn't mind playing Gothic3 again, but I really just cbf. I did want Risen, but apparently it's been banned in Aus (yes, ANOTHER game banned in our shitty country), so I can't get it legally anymore. I was planning on getting it via Steam, but no can do anymore, sigh. Apparently all because when you smoked a joint ingame for the first time, you get XP; big fucking deal, it's trying something new OF COURSE you get experience points cause you're experiencing something new! Anyway, nice find. Before you start, there is a little ini file tweak u may want to do if you have enough ram. I have 4GB ram so I double all the resource cache values in the G3.ini file in order to allocate a bit more of all that RAM. If you do this, it is important to note to keep the amounts you input as multiples of the original value i.e. 64000000 becomes 128000000 and so on. It was with with this tweak that I got G3 actually running maxed out its tits with a solid 60FPS right in the middle of a big riot in the middle of a town. Oh yeah, and be sure to select that Alternative AI and Alternative balancing settings. I also put difficulty on HARD, and found enemies blocking my attacks and me being forced to use blocks on thiers.peculiarly addictive stuff! Something I never really felt about Gothic 3 in the past!
