    Hi. This works with GOG game version 2.65.1?. When I apply the purist fix pack, the game just wont launch anymore. Also, I've tried "elamigos" repack which is based on disk game version 2.65.2 and also it just wont launch. I've tried setting compat mode to win7 and win vista without luck. I have no problems running GOG game version 2.65.1, I'm on Windows 10 x64.

    I can't try to apply the official 2.65.2 patch (https://www.patches-scrolls.de/patch/3549/7/75335) to my GOG version 2.65.1 to see what happens, because the installer says that it can't find the Sacred 2 installation (probably due a missing registry value with the directory path, that GOG installer does not install).

    Hi, I had a lot of crashes until I solved them by accessing the system/sacred2.exe folder. I set it to Windows Vista compatibility and run as administrator.

    In the shortcut, I did the same, setting it to Windows Vista compatibility and run as administrator. I also only had the Purist version installed without extras to avoid any possible bugs/crashes.

    I hope it helps

    Since reinstalling in 2025, despite the purist fixpack, the game frequently crashes or hard freezes, almost as if the fixpack isn't at all present even if it is (and the main menu confirms it). This happens across two different machines and wasn't the case when I last played early 2024. Any ideas what might be going on? Crash / freeze especially prominent when opening a vendor.

    Does Enhanced Edition 3.2a have anything that should be brought over to PFP?

      There should not be anything like that as they were developed side by side.

    Hi!  I have an issue when installing this mod.

    I'm playing Dragon Mage. Yet, when I install this mod (it does the same with Community patch, but I prefer this one for a first playthtrough), the Dragon Mage spell "Eternal Fire" stops dealing DoT damage, and stops spreading ENTIRELY. Any idea what causes that ?

    Edit : https://darkmatters.org/forums/index.php?/topic/72571-eternal-fire-strange-behavior/ I've been linked this forum thread, if it helps. I don't understand much what's going on but...

      What i understand, both The Eternal Fire and Viperish Disease are completely bugged currently. They work unpatched, but after their poor attempt of balancing them they only managed to broke them.

      It's dumber than that; I reverted the balance changes in 1.4, but removed a line that was necessary for proper functioning (the hits per second token).
      This player listed how to do a manual fix
      When I can get some time it should be easy to upload a patch.

    I still get random crashes...

    Sacred 2 GoG version with only this purist pack installed.  Entering some caves, or teleport or sometimes if you open map it will freeze and crash to desktop with no warning to indicate the problem.

    Win 11

    Hello

    My game crash regularly to the desktop and no indicating what is the problem after using this purist pack.  I never had any crash with the cp?  I did do a fresh install of this pack, because the only reason I've used the cp is because no crashing.

    Any ideas what might be the cause?

    BTW I'm using Windows 11

    Christmas Quest doesn't spawn a snowball to build Snowman... i already collected all Snowman parts, but there's no snowball to build it on.

      Can I ask a question: Did you have Christmas patch enabled from the very beginning when you created your character, or did you enable mid-playthrough?

      I just stumbled upon this issue, I was using 1.3 version and my character was created after the patch was applied. I updated to 1.4 but the issue persists. Sad that I can't complete the quest. :(

      Now that I think about it maybe the quest works properly but I remember editing the save because I didn't like how my build turned out, maybe that broke it? Will restart and if I stumble the issue again will report.

    hi, how do we get back the console output on game launch? 
    i like reading the message of the day from the console when the game starts up. but now its gone.

    im not sure how this is not considered to be "purist" as this is certainly the original intended viewing experience :)

      i would also like to say the armor set of centurios insignia seems to be missing the colossus arms piece. it just never drops for me. 
      all the other pieces drop except this one. i have many many hours into my game, and still have not seen a single piece. maybe just really bad luck? 
      but other armors which should be more rare seem to drop more than this. 

      very awesome mod 
      the centurio armor set is by far my favorite in the whole game. i never even knew about it until installing your mod. i am having more fun with this alone than anything from the CM patch.

      I never noticed the loading screen not working. I run in Windowed Mode. Might be full-screen related.

      yes, it most certainly is. i just assumed it was your mod doing this because thats what mods do... they change things :)

      Colossus Arms finally dropped for me. I just happened to be recording my game during the drop, if you're interesting in seeing some Sacred 2 action in 4K UHD

      And here are a few others I recorded:
