Perhaps you need 8.0.0.4?
(That's the version you get if you use the demo to try it with)

The English image that's floating around works with the German VC8 image, in case nobody knew. Saves messing around with ini files and such. Smile

Tages/X-Protect has another disc check during the "new game" loading state wich seems to make it difficult to use that function.

The savegame, if it's the one I posted on page 1 is taken right at the beginning of the game about 5 seconds after the intro video.


Unsure about serial for virtual cd the package I got with the download contained 8.0.0.2 with a serial/keygen and two updates.

But I couldn't get the clone to work properly so i'm back using the dvd untill this gets cracked.

Use the Demo version of Virtual CD 8.0.0.4 (the Cracked .2 craches after a while)
It does the job Wink

There's a huge gothic3 thread in the void section of the forums, posted alot of information after I recieved my copy but that thread is about 45 pages now so it'll probably take some time to go trough all of it.

Aside from some minor issues and those memory errors the game is very good with all sorts of things to do.

Faction based as the previous games so by helping one side you harm another side.
(Free the slave or return him to his orcish master for disciplination?)

You can also choose to go crazy and kill everyone but that does have some issues.
(Currently helping the nomads/rebels by killing hashishins/orcs and taking their cities)

The wildlife is using steroids btw.
(Seeing four bandits with decent weapons/armor getting owned by one boar is odd)

At first you will probably try to explore the land and ruins/caves but you'll most likely get killed if you try to leave the roads since the wildlife is dangerous and difficult to kill at low levels. (Entering a goblin cave and encountering minecrawlers and ogres lower down)

Tons of quests to do even though as I said by helping one side you will harm another side so some quests will conflict with each other.

Performance is also quite good and on more recent hardware it's nearly perfect.
(Again, aside from the out of memory errors that happen now and then)

Nice landscape and with lot's of details as well and some large cities.
(The whole game is full of details, such as animals sleeping at night and NPC's doing different stuff during the day hours)

Just another patch and the game will be perfected.
(Probably still some minor issues left but if they fix the main issues i'm happy)

Nice mini review JBeckman.Look like an interesting game from the sound of it.

As far as the st0n3d/virtual cd 8 release is concerned , it's way too buggy for me.I can get the game to run but it or virtual cd keep crashing during gameplay.I tried the save game file but it did not resolve the problem.Also , that bloated VCD 8 piece of shit seems to slow down my computer.Way too annoying

I guess that i will wait for the U.S securom proper release or i will simply buy it if it's avalaible here before a working release is out.

Slaves work by carrying boulders and digging at excavations or shoveling shit, female dancers amuse the hashishin noble's and farmers work in the field while mercenaries talk to each other or bully the local slave population and some swampweed addicts gather around the pipe at night to smoke.

The world feels alive and active but also very dangerous, serious and brutal though it does have some funny moments.
(Gotta love the stoned citizens of the drug capitol and the druglord who wanted me to fetch him a rug so he can lie naked on it and enjoy the feeling of fur on his body while smoking the black rhobar)

Wait for it to arrive? Razz You are using VCD 8 demo to mount the image with? I guess that's the one way it should work...

So the same Sh***it CRACK form RAZOR i REALLY Doubt that its from Razor,
is on the gamecopyworld, i can't understand why they put an un confirmed file like this onto the server.

The Files on the archive are not even from that company, so its really sh***t when the File Gothic III.dll is made by microsoft

    Version language : English (United States)
    CompanyName : Microsoft Corporation
    FileVersion : 2001.12.4414.258
    InternalName :catsrvps.DLL
    LegalCopyright : Copyright (C) Microsoft Corp. 1995-1999
    LegalTrademarks : Microsoft(R) is a registered trademark of Microsoft Corporation. Windows(TM) is a trademark of Microsoft Corporation
    ProductName : COM Services
    ProductVersion : 03.00.00.4414


You see the internal Name so thats obvious what sort of file that would be
and not by
Code:

Version language : German (Germany)
      CompanyName   : Pluto 13 GmbH
      FileDescription   : Genome Gaming System
      FileVersion   : 1, 07, 25755, 0
      InternalName   : Engine
      LegalCopyright   : Copyright © 2003 - 2006 by Pluto 13 GmbH (Piranha Bytes)
      OriginalFilename   : Genome Gaming System
      ProductName   :  Genome Gaming System
      ProductVersion   : 1, 07, 25755, 0


I can understand that the oter files coud be MS but not this one and the X-prot the same.

Can you please tell me where to put the samegave file in, the game started one time bypassing the second check as well so i could start the game but didn't make the savegame, how stupid can you be, i know. . I thought it would work a second time as well. The save game has been uploaded here but i have to know where it exactly has to be placed. My root now is C:\Documents and Settings\hell\My Documents\gothic3 but then I'm missing the last one. I tried saves Save ect. but didn't find the right one, does somebody know the last foldername so the save works well ? I'm using the stoned release with the updated patch. Please somebody help me Smile

Where's Spitfire when you need 'em?

This hole G3 mess shows the Starforce devs are probably right that copy protection works because a lotta people who ordinarily wouldn't are plunking down the ducats for a game they'd ordinarily just dl, delete, and forget about after a week. Here's the equation, Einsteins:

# days no release = more $ale$ for the plutocrat$.

not true. People who dont want to buy it, will still not buy it. So if a game is crap they will not buy it. The company will blame piracy instead (like starforce does). The people who will not buy in first instance will try out the piracy version and decide (since the lack of demo's the last 5 / 6 years) if they want to buy it. So it actually generate sales.

People who love rpg's and are fan of Gothic 3 and dont buy the game are cheap and most hurt by the good copy protection (cry cry here in the forums) i dont feel sorry for them at all.

So they actually maximize the sales of potential rpg-loving customers so that could be a good thing. Smile
