JudasIscariot: Hi all,

We are pleased to announce that all three of the Realms of Arkania games (PC for now, Mac versions will be made available ASAP :) ) are now available in German. Please check your game shelves for the new drop down menu where you can select between the English and German version.

Vielen Dank! :)
Thanks again for this fantastic update!

But I have two questions:

First, there's a gamebreaking bug just before the final battle in the original version of ROA 3. There exists a patch for this issue, but it seems to be incomaptible with DOSBox. The last German DOSBox release used a special freeware tool (JEMM) to circumvent this issue. I've tried a save game for the certain situation and it seems the bug is still there in the GOG version.

Second, there was an additional patch which included an online cluebook for ROA 3. All available German releases are patched with this very useful official tool, that allows you to consult detailed ingame maps and hints with the shortcut ALT+H. Any chance we will see this in the GOG release? I could send you the data.

EDIT: According to the German README in the GOG game directory of ROA 3 the hint book should be integrated in this version, but it seems not to be installed properly.

seikilos: anyway, is the empty Mac Tab for Realms of Arkania there on purpose?
Im Eröffnungspost hat Judas doch geschrieben, dass eine Mac-Version so bald wie möglich folgen soll. :)

Fantastic!

Thank you!

One question or maybe a piece of advice.

The German version of "Blade of Destiny" confronts you with the game's copy protection when you launch it, which requires you to enter the names of cities on a map of the game world. Is that included with the bonus materials?

I mean, finding a scan of that map online is easy enough, but it probably would be best to include a copy of the map with the game.

Im Hauptverzeichnis von REALMS OF ARKANIA 1 (der Name, brrr!) findest du zwei PDF-Dateien namens "manual" und "passcodes"; beide enthalten die vollständigen Passworttabellen.

Der grüne (!) Schwarzpelz mit Micky-Maus-Harnisch, ein ewiger Klassiker! :D

Oh c'mon, out of courtesy I included original names in installers / desktop shortcuts. No other language version on GOG gets that :P

I was trying to figure out what the new update was and finally do, after checking the forum. This is awesome. Thanks.

Noted with approval. :)

RoA 1+2 are perfect as they are and I hope we will see a little fix for RoA 3 soon. Fantastic service anyway, I would never have expected that. Perhaps there will be some day in future where I can have all my games here on GOG.

Hi RS :)

Glad you're enjoying the update and thanks for the feedback. Your best bet would be to go through the official channels, mainly Support, regarding any patches or bugs found within the game :)
