Gothic 2 version on GoG is 2.7, you need 2.6 for the systempack to work, so you need to 'downgrade' the game first. Check the installation guide on the top of page 6.

Thanks for the reply will do.

Hi Guys, I followed SInitar's guide for modding but I'm having some issues.

1. My save files sometimes corrupt into having single digit fps's (usually they're in the 100's-300's) which renders that save unplayable. Restarting the game doesn't correct these saves, and I have tried to run it through starter and
2. Game often crashes.
3. Game often black screens with music.

I disabled weather effects but I still get these problems. I have tried starting it with all the applications. Some (Gothic_backup) won't run at all

Thanks for the help.

Attached is the error message I get on most crashes.

MfG MaGoth,

Thanks a lot!
In the meanwhile we have finished Gothic 1 & 2, which had a couple nasty bugs remaining.
Gothic 3 unfortunately ran so horribly bad on Linux through WINE that it's unplayable.

Hi,
Do I need to instal after all of this a smoe fps fix for Gothic 1?
How to run Gothic 2 Gold edition in 1920x1080?
Regards

can someone sum up? is there first post actual or there are other patches which should be applies with actual version of gothic ?

Gothic 1 (GOG version) instructions from Gothic ½ — SystemPack (ENG/DEU) :

1. Install game
2. (Steam/retail only, not needed for GOG version) Install Gothic Patch 1.08k
3. Install Gothic1_PlayerKit-1.08k.exe
4. Install Gothic1_PlayerKit-2.8.exe
5. Install G1Classic-SystemPack-1.8.exe

And I personally suggest:
6. Install Textures Patch for Gothic 1 (0.8 beta)

This fixes rundll32 problems, made inventory items visible again for me and increased texture detail. (which looks way better)

When the folder is greyed out, you have either not selected the directory where Gothic is installed or you are running the installers in the wrong order.

I did exactlt that. Thanks Though. I found the freddys texture pack also. I don't see any player kit 2.8 for G1 though?
Thanks

Gothic1_PlayerKit-2.8.exe is included in the Yandex link from the SystemPack thread on worldofplayers.de.

And it's "out of downloads", so it requires you to sign up for and install software, and agree to share your information... from a russian site in Cyrillic. No thanks.

Can't someone just upload it to Google Drive like a normal person? Or ModDB? Or just OneDrive or something? Literally every single cult classic game community does this.

If you PM me I can give you a link. (I don't know if I'm allowed to link zippyshare publicly on this forum)

Ther is no G1 player kit 2.8 for G1 I can find there is 1 for Gothic 2 A2.8 Player kit. though. Is that the one?
