Can you tell me how to beat the cave where the chick waits and stands guard?
Hello. I am sorry, but I can't find the universal update.
By the way, in the settings, I cannot change the resolution without having the game crashing (I have to stick to the lowest one).
If you're logged in, the English-language patch should be at: https://www.gog.com/downlink/shadows_heretic_kingdoms/en1patch1

Are you changing resolution from the launcher or from the in-game menu? Which DirectX version are you using, and do you have it installed? (DX9 may need to be (re)installed on recent versions of Windows.)

Thanks for your reply. I use the French version, but maybe I should play in English if the patch is only for the English version. We need a GOG employee to tell if that is true or not.

I change the resolution from the launcher.
i see the the text is small when using full hd. and when you get tutorial at the begining its show on keyboard not the controller when i am using it
Allzebest: It's not just a lack of universal update then - there doesn't appear to be a French-language version of the game on the download list.

Kmja: Controller support was only partially implemented before the legal issues surrounding BitComposer halted patch releases, and using controllers tends to make the game unstable as a result. IIRC the developers do have full support ready, but they can't release any further updates until the BitComposer situation is dealt with.

How about starting the game? One would see in the lower right corner the version number 1.0.0.7878.

Not true. Another important update was released a few days later. But it seems GoG buyers won't get that.

That's a pain but why am I not surprised :( What is fixed in the newer patch?
does the steam version and gog have the same verison now?
I don't know about the website downloads, but the Galaxy download certainly is. There was a small patch released on both GoG and Steam a couple of days ago that made a few more fixes and changes beyond the ones listed here.

Both the offline installers and the Galaxy installed version have been updated with the latest version of the game :)

Will there also be just a patch uploaded? Cause now i can only download the whole game, which is seperated into a file of 2,68 GB and one of 33,3 MB.
And is this then including the announced DLC's? Cause i don't see them anywhere.
I use the offline installers.

Regarding the DLC:

When you run the game it says in the bottom right hand corner that the Bonus Content Collector's Edition DLC version is installed.

And yes, there will be a patch uploaded just like there is one now and possibly the main installer will be updated but that last part depends on whether we have time to do so :)
