Sacred 2 Purist Fixpack 1.4
by Flix

The Purist Fixpack (PFP) is designed to be the most comprehensive bugfix patch for Sacred 2, as well as being the most strict in terms of not making subjective changes or adding any fan-made content.

===================================
Requirements and Compatibility
===================================
* This mod only requires Sacred 2 + Ice & Blood expansion with the latest patch (2.65.02) installed (or simply Sacred 2 Gold).
** Digital versions of Sacred 2 are preferred due to the draconian copyright protection present on the disk versions.
* The official Elite Textures or the Elite Textures Trimmed (recommended mod) are supported.
* Generally speaking, no other mods should be installed along with PFP. But script-free mods will likely work fine.

===================================
Install Instructions
===================================
* Download the Generic Mod Enabler (GME) and install it to your Sacred 2 root folder.
** Mod Enabler is available at http://www.softpedia.com/get/Others/Miscellaneous/Generic-Mod-Enabler.shtml
** For Steam the root folder is C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Sacred 2 Gold
** For GOG or disk version, the root folder is wherever you installed the game, for example C:\Sacred 2 Gold
* After running the GME once, it will make a folder called "MODS" there.
* Extract/copy/move the folder titled "Purist Fixpack" from inside the compressed zip file and paste them into the "MODS" folder.
* Run the GME and enable the Purist Fixpack. The GME will back up your clean files and will allow to you to easily enable/disable the mod as you wish.
* - Optional - PFP Christmas Patch should be installed afterward. Do not install Christmas Patch alone. It requires the main Purist Fixpack to function. An overwrite warning is to be expected when you install optional modules.
* Disk Version should be installed afterward, and only for player with the disk version of Sacred 2. Digital versions do not require this patch.
* Please use NEW CHARACTERS ONLY. You may get strange behavior, crashes, or even corrupted save files by using legacy characters.
