You want to play vanilla Sacred Gold in 1080p HD without any balancing tweaks?

1. Download this patch:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1t4Aka71yp5zv-RI_uYtGzKHUwXLv1bWV/view?usp=sharing
...and copy the files from the zip into your main installation folder (on Windows, this usually is
:\Program Files (x86)\GOG Galaxy\Games\Sacred Gold)

2. Go into the PAK folder and rename "sound.pak" to "us_sound.pak", then move it to PAK\snd.

3. Start the game with "sacredNL.exe"

Optional: Download a language module from here and drop it into the PAK\snd folder.
http://www.sacred-nl.necropol.sumy.ua/html/download/download.php
You can switch languages with CTRL+D (text) and CTRL+SHIFT+D (audio) while in-game.
There will be a settingsNL.cfg in the main folder which can be edited e.g. to change resolution.

================================================

Here is another ALTERNATIVE PATCH, just in case you got problems with the above one:

Link to a fixed version of the "PureHD" mod (some users had problems with text not being displayed):
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Jr75WoNF-1q3ZCv9y3iCphHStoFtZX5e/view?usp=sharing

Optional: Link to the german language pack (audio & text):
https://www.compiware-forum.de/downloads/file/186-sacred-gold-german-patch/#versions

Installation Instructions:

1. Optional: Install the german language pack (run the exe, change the default path).
2. Copy the files from the Sacred1PureHD_fixed.zip to the main folder of the game.
(Default windows path for the GoG version: \Program Files (x86)\GOG Galaxy\Games\Sacred Gold)

You may want to make a backup of "sacred.exe" first.
The game should then run in 1080p. If you want a different resolution, you have to edit "settings.cfg".
Not all resolutions may work, try them out.
