Gothic Radeon patch?
   

Well I was checking out the current price of Gothic, and to make a long story short I ended up over at Xicat's webpage. There I learned that a Radeaon Patch for Gothic has been released? I looked through the special files section here but no luck. Where do I get this?

There was a patch, 1.08k, but it was for earlier radeons than yours, although maybe its worth a try? - - again its on the Gothic link, gallery/specials.

Gothic 1 will not play on my ATI Radeaon 9600 pro (not that old!) unless I use the patch. It is a black screen.

The patch fixes it so it will work. It did not do that with my old Nvidia card.

Use the correct version, J is for the German and K is for the English. They will both install over any version, but it will not work.

There was a 1.08h version not for the English version, but for the German version. I remember that form back long time ago.

I guess it was H not J for German Gothic 1. Missed that one. Good catch

@Xerxes712,

That old info' is interesting, i thought it was j for English and k for German?
So then if it was as you say, then the 1.08j has been superceded into the current/latest 1.08k, - - wierd!

P.S Is not 1.08h German?

The German release versions were 1.06 something and 1.08j (budget).
English was 1.08j. This included of course all older German patches. There is no 1.08j patch.

No, there is no other patch. Graphics card compatibility with Gothic 1 is hit or miss. Some fog problems can be corrected in the gothic.ini. A few graphical glitches in the distance are normal. Especially when looking down at the swamp.
