Unofficial Patch 1.4 released!

Post by Wesp5 »

Hi everybody, the Unofficial Patch has been updated to 1.4 which includes all the additional fixes in the Official English Patch and some more fixes and features. You can find it here and it should work with all Russian or English versions out there:[url]http://www.patches-scrolls.de/precursors.php#tp14[/url] Please download the version from 20.4.2011 if you get a crash on startup.

Thanks for the update Wesp5, uploading it to the file area now. And with this patch do you think Precursors is very playable if I purchase the download version from Gamersgate?

Yes, but maybe you should look at the Beamdog version too, because they already offer the Russian voice-pack :)!Darkone, please replace the version in your file area with the one from 20.4.2011, the other version may crash on startup.

That's the version I was talking about! The Fan Improvement Pack are the original Russian voices which not only make the game much cooler, imagine it's an alien language ;), it also fixes the sound dropout issues people have.

Sorry, but everything looks fine with this in my resource.qrc file. What is the exact object name and description you get?

Ah, thanks for clearing that up! I will remove Option 6 in the next patch version.

That is correct, the daytime saving change did this. Is the 20.4.2011 version working for you?

Hm, what do you expect me to do, remove it when it is used? I don't remember how this is handled in TP and I don't know how I would change this. I added a description and I could make the key droppable though, so you could get rid of it afterwards...

Cutscenes from version 20.4.2011 still cause crash on run (I redownloaded patch from patches scrolls 5 minutes ago)so I repleced them with files from moddb which are working fine.As for the key you could add remove item command to fisherman reward script so it could be removed when he gives reward. Power cell quest removes keycard to bandits storage on completion so you can look in its script to see how it is handled.

Were you using the GameFront mirror? I think it hasn't been updated yet. Please try the version below and tell me if it works:http://www.gamefront.com/files/20244713/TPup14_exe

I don't know how to access quest scripts, but I will remove the key when you speak to the captured friend of the fisherman.
