Hot-Fix Update 2.1.2e


Hello, Pathfinders!

Yesterday we’ve discovered, that experimenting with Nenio and polymorph spells can have unexpected consequences such as: not being able to load saved games, empty level up screens, crashes to main menu, and inability to even open a load menu when the game is launched. We’ve prepared the fix for this, which will also fix the already affected saves. We apologize for the inconvenience, and we’ll make sure this experiment is documented in Encyclopedia Golarionnica and that Nenio won’t try to repeat it!

Game Version 2.1.5m is now available.

Hello, crusaders!

An update 2.1.5m is here!

Patch 2.1.5m weighs about 26 GB if you have purchased all DLCs, if you do not have DLCs — the patch weighs about 18 GB. We apologize for any inconvenience. This patch weight is due to the updated version of Unity, and prepwork for the future releases of DLCs and further work on the game. We hope for your understanding.

Game Patch for v2.1.5m Highlights:

- Some locations in Through the Ashes and The Treasure of the Midnight Isles DLCs have been optimized;

- When saving on the flying platforms of the mage tower in Alushinyrra, companions could be stuck on one of the platforms — fixed;

- Trying to talk to Ramien when he goes to the Defender's Heart resulted to freeze — fixed;

- We have implemented a 3rd party service named Appsflyer — an industry standard tracking solution for user acquisition for computer and mobile games. This solution allows developers and publishers to understand which part of players have purchased the game due to the impact of their advertising campaigns. It will help us to define the key metrics of the campaigns and significantly improve our marketing efforts. Though Appsflyer is fully compliant with GDPR and other data processing regulations, we needed to reflect its implementation in the game's EULA, which resulted in improvements of the paragraph 3.1 of the respective EULA.

Remember if playing with MODS, PLEASE don’t forget to update them before loading your game saves!

Please Beware of possible plot spoilers below!
