8 i**Disclaimer:** codemadness.org 70
9 iSome (including myself) may find some of these hints/exploits cheating. This codemadness.org 70
10 iguide is just for educational and fun purposes. Some of these hints/tips apply codemadness.org 70
11 ito Gothic 2 as well. I got the meat exploit from a guide somewhere on the codemadness.org 70
12 iinternet I can't recall where, anyway kudos to that person. Some of the codemadness.org 70
13 iexploits I discovered myself. codemadness.org 70

18 i codemadness.org 70
19 i### Widescreen resolution codemadness.org 70
20 i codemadness.org 70
21 iGothic supports widescreen resolutions with a small tweak, add the following codemadness.org 70
22 itext string as a command-line argument: codemadness.org 70
23 i codemadness.org 70
24 i -zRes:1920,1200,32 codemadness.org 70
25 i codemadness.org 70
26 iThis also works for Gothic 2. Here 1920 is the width, 1200 the height and 32 codemadness.org 70
27 ithe bits per pixel, change this to your preferred resolution. codemadness.org 70
28 i codemadness.org 70
29 i codemadness.org 70
30 i### Fix crash with Steam version codemadness.org 70
31 i codemadness.org 70
32 iDisable steam overlay. If that doesn't work rename GameOverlayRenderer.dll in codemadness.org 70
33 iyour steam folder to _GameOverlayRenderer.dll. I strongly recommend to buy the codemadness.org 70
34 hbetter version from »GOG.com«. The GOG version has no DRM and allows easier URL:https://www.gog.com/game/gothic codemadness.org 70
35 imodding, it also allows playing in most published languages: German, English, codemadness.org 70
36 iPolish, furthermore it has some original artwork and soundtrack included. codemadness.org 70
37 i codemadness.org 70
38 i codemadness.org 70
39 i### Upgrade Steam version to stand-alone version and remove Steam DRM (Gothic 1 and 2) codemadness.org 70
40 i codemadness.org 70
41 iYou can install the Gothic playerkit and patches to remove the Steam DRM. codemadness.org 70

50 i### Play Gothic in a different language with English subtitles codemadness.org 70
51 i codemadness.org 70
52 iIf you're like me and have played the English version many times, but would codemadness.org 70
53 ilike to hear the (original) German voice audio or if you would like to play codemadness.org 70
54 iwith different audio than you're used to, then you can copy the speech.vdf file codemadness.org 70
55 iof your preferred version to your game files. Optionally turn on subtitles. codemadness.org 70
56 iI've used this to play the English version of Gothic with the original German codemadness.org 70
57 ivoice audio and English subtitles. codemadness.org 70
58 iThis works best with the version from GOG as it allows easier modding. codemadness.org 70

64 i### Steal from Huno codemadness.org 70
65 i codemadness.org 70
66 iAt night attack Huno the smith in the Old Camp and steal all his steel. Then codemadness.org 70
67 imake some weapons and sell them with a merchant. When you ask Huno about codemadness.org 70
68 iblacksmith equipment it will respawn with 5 of each kind of steel. This is also codemadness.org 70
69 ia fairly good starting weapon (requires 20 strength). Also his chest located codemadness.org 70
70 inear the sharpening stone and fire contains some steel as well, lock-pick it. codemadness.org 70
71 iThe combination is: RRLRLL. The chest contains at least 20 raw steel, forge it codemadness.org 70
72 ito get 20 crude swords which you can sell for 50 ore each to a merchant. This codemadness.org 70
73 iwill generate some nice starting money (1000+ ore) :) codemadness.org 70

76 i### Steal weapons from the castle in the Old Camp codemadness.org 70
77 i codemadness.org 70
78 iThis tip is useful for getting pretty good starting weapons. codemadness.org 70
79 i codemadness.org 70
80 iBefore entering the castle itself drop your ore (Left control + down for me) codemadness.org 70
81 iin front of it. This will ensure when you get caught (and you probably will ;)) codemadness.org 70
82 ino ore will get stolen by the guards. Now use the "slip past guard" technique codemadness.org 70
83 idescribed below and you should be able to get into Gomez his castle. Run to the codemadness.org 70
84 ileft where some weapons are stored. Now make sure you at least steal the best codemadness.org 70
85 iweapon (battle sword) and steal as much as you can until you get whacked. I codemadness.org 70
86 iusually stand in the corner since that's where the best weapons are (battle codemadness.org 70
87 isword, judgement sword, etc). You'll now have some nice starting weapon(s) and codemadness.org 70
88 ithe good thing is they require very little attributes (about 13 strength). codemadness.org 70

95 iIn the New Camp go to the mine and talk to Swiney at the bottom of "The codemadness.org 70
96 iHollow". Ask who he is and then ask to join the scrapers. He will give you a codemadness.org 70
97 i"Diggers dress" worth 250 ore. It has the following stats: + 10 against codemadness.org 70
98 iweapons. + 5 against fire. This will also give you free entrance to the bar in codemadness.org 70

110 i codemadness.org 70
111 iIn the Old Camp in the main castle there are at least 3 chests with valuable codemadness.org 70
112 iitems that don't require a key: codemadness.org 70
113 i codemadness.org 70
114 i* Middle right side (looking from the entrance), 1 chest: codemadness.org 70

119 i * additionally there are 2 locked doors at the right side in this room. In codemadness.org 70
120 i the final room there are 3 floors with lots of chests. codemadness.org 70

139 i### Swamp/Sect Camp harvest twice codemadness.org 70
140 i codemadness.org 70
141 iIn the swamp-weed harvest quest you must get swamp-weed for a guru. After this codemadness.org 70
142 iquest you can get the harvest again, but you can keep the harvest without codemadness.org 70

148 i codemadness.org 70
149 i### Slip past guards codemadness.org 70
150 i codemadness.org 70
151 iThis exploit is really simple, just draw your weapon before you're "targeted" codemadness.org 70
152 iby the guard and run past them, this bypasses the dialog sequence. When you're codemadness.org 70
153 ijust out of their range holster your weapon again, so the people around won't codemadness.org 70
154 iget pissed off. codemadness.org 70
155 i codemadness.org 70
156 iWorks really well on the guards in front of the Old camp's castle, Y'Berrion codemadness.org 70
157 itemplars and New Camp mercenaries near the Water magicians, just to name a few. codemadness.org 70

161 i### Meat duplication codemadness.org 70
162 i codemadness.org 70
163 iGo to a pan and focus / target it so it says "frying pan" or similar. Now open codemadness.org 70
164 iyour inventory and select the meat. Now cook the meat (for me Left Control + codemadness.org 70
165 iArrow up). The inventory should remain open. You'll now have twice as much meat codemadness.org 70
166 ias you had before. Do this a few times and you'll have a lot of meat, easy for codemadness.org 70
167 itrading with ore/other items as well. This exploit does not work with the codemadness.org 70

172 i codemadness.org 70
173 iYou can glitch through walls by strafing into them. Then when the player is codemadness.org 70
174 ipartially collided into a door or wall you can jump forward to glitch through codemadness.org 70

180 i### Fall from great heights codemadness.org 70
181 i codemadness.org 70
182 iWhen you fall or jump from where you usually get fall damage you can do the codemadness.org 70
183 ifollowing trick: slightly before the ground use left or right strafe. This codemadness.org 70
184 iworks because it resets the falling animation. There are also other ways to codemadness.org 70
185 iachieve the same thing cancelling the falling animation, such as attacking with codemadness.org 70
186 ia weapon in the air. codemadness.org 70

194 i### Test of faith (extra exp) codemadness.org 70
195 i codemadness.org 70
196 iYou get an additional 750 exp (from Lares) when you forge the letter in the new codemadness.org 70

200 i### Fighting skeleton mages and their skeletons codemadness.org 70
201 i codemadness.org 70
202 iAn easy way to get more experience is to let the skeleton mages summon as much codemadness.org 70
203 iskeletons as they can, instead of rushing to kill the summoner immediately. codemadness.org 70
204 iAfter you have defeated all of them: kill the skeleton mage. codemadness.org 70

206 i codemadness.org 70
207 i### Permanent str/dex/mana/hp potions/items and teachers codemadness.org 70
208 i codemadness.org 70
209 iWhen you want to get the maximum power at the end of the game you should save codemadness.org 70
210 iup the items that give you a permanent boost. Teachers of strength, dexterity codemadness.org 70
211 iand mana won't train over 100 of each skill. However using potions and quest codemadness.org 70
212 irewards you can increase this over 100. codemadness.org 70
213 i codemadness.org 70
214 iYou should also look out for the following: codemadness.org 70
215 i codemadness.org 70
216 i* Learn to get extra force into your punch from Horatio (strength +5, this codemadness.org 70
217 i can't be done after level 100 strength). Talking to Jeremiah in the New Camp codemadness.org 70
218 i bar unlocks the dialog option to train strength at Horatio. codemadness.org 70
219 i codemadness.org 70
220 i* Smoke the strongest non-quest joint (+2 mana). codemadness.org 70
221 i codemadness.org 70
222 i codemadness.org 70
223 i### Permanent potions in Sleeper temple codemadness.org 70
224 i codemadness.org 70
225 iThis one is really obvious, but I would like to point out the mummies on each codemadness.org 70
226 iside where Xardas is located have lots and I mean lots of permanent potions. codemadness.org 70
227 iThis will give you a nice boost before the end battle. codemadness.org 70

231 i codemadness.org 70
232 i### Permanent potions as reward in quests codemadness.org 70
233 i codemadness.org 70
234 iAlways pick the permanent potion as a reward for quests when you can, for codemadness.org 70
235 iexample the quest for delivering the message to the High Fire magicians (mana codemadness.org 70
236 ipotion) or the one for fetching the almanac for the Sect Camp. Don't forget to codemadness.org 70
237 ipick up the potions from Riordian the water magician when you're doing the codemadness.org 70
238 ifocus stones quest, it contains a strength and dexterity potion (+3). codemadness.org 70
239 i codemadness.org 70
240 i### Improve ancient ore armour further codemadness.org 70
241 i codemadness.org 70
242 iIn the last chapters the blacksmith Stone from the Old Camp is captured If you codemadness.org 70
243 isave him from the prison cell in the Old Camp the reward will have a few codemadness.org 70
244 ioptions. One of the options is improving the Ancient Ore armour. codemadness.org 70

285 i### Random/beginner tips codemadness.org 70
286 i codemadness.org 70
287 i* If you want to talk to a NPC, but some animation of them takes too long (like codemadness.org 70
288 i eating, drinking, smoking) you can sometimes force them out of it by quickly codemadness.org 70
289 i unsheathing/sheathing your weapon. codemadness.org 70
290 i codemadness.org 70
291 i* When in the Old Camp: Baal Parvez can take you to the Sect Camp, he can be codemadness.org 70
292 i found near the campfire near Fisk and Dexter. codemadness.org 70
293 i Mordrag can take you to the New Camp, he can be found near the south gate, codemadness.org 70
294 i slightly after the campfire near Baal Parvez. codemadness.org 70
295 i codemadness.org 70
296 i When you follow them and when they kill monsters then you also get the codemadness.org 70
297 i experience. codemadness.org 70
298 i codemadness.org 70
299 i* If you do no damage to rock golems or skeletons: use a different type of codemadness.org 70
300 i weapon than a sword: use a hammer (like the Orc Hammer or God's Hammer). For codemadness.org 70
301 i the elemental golems (fire and ice) use the elemental counter, like Ice Bolt or codemadness.org 70
302 i Fire Bolt. codemadness.org 70
303 i codemadness.org 70
304 i* The NPC Wolf in the New Camp sells "The Bloodflies" book for 150 ore. When codemadness.org 70
305 i you read this book you learn how to remove bloodflies parts (without having to codemadness.org 70
306 i spend learning points). After you read the book and learned its skill then you codemadness.org 70
307 i can sell the book back for 75 ore. This investment quickly pays back: Per codemadness.org 70
308 i bloodfly: sting: 25 ore (unsold value), 2x wings (15 ore each unsold value). codemadness.org 70
309 i codemadness.org 70
310 i* The templar Gor Na Drak (usually near the old mine and walks around with codemadness.org 70
311 i another templar): talking to him teaches you how to learn to get secretion from codemadness.org 70
312 i minecrawlers for free. codemadness.org 70
313 i codemadness.org 70
314 i* The spell scroll "Transform into bloodfly" is very useful: codemadness.org 70
315 i * A bloodfly is very fast. codemadness.org 70
316 i * Can also fly over water. codemadness.org 70
317 i * The scroll costs 100 ore. Its the same price as a potion of speed, but it codemadness.org 70
318 i has no duration (just until you transform back). codemadness.org 70
319 i * You have no fall damage. codemadness.org 70
320 i * You can climb some steep mountains this way. codemadness.org 70
321 i * Some monsters won't attack you, but some NPCs will attack you. codemadness.org 70
322 i * Your attribute stats will temporary change. codemadness.org 70
323 i * It requires 10 mana to cast (low requirement). codemadness.org 70
324 i codemadness.org 70
325 i* Almost all mummies that are lootable in the game (Orc temple and The Sleeper codemadness.org 70
326 i temple) have really good loot: permanent and regular potions and amulets and codemadness.org 70
327 i rings. codemadness.org 70
328 i codemadness.org 70
329 i* Skill investments: codemadness.org 70
330 i * For melee skills: codemadness.org 70
331 i * Strength (increases damage and meeting equipment requirements). codemadness.org 70
332 i * One-handed weapons have a bit lower weapon damage but are less clunky and codemadness.org 70
333 i faster. You can also interrupt enemy attacks. codemadness.org 70
334 i * One-handed sword trainers: codemadness.org 70
335 i * Cord, New Camp, 30 ore, near the waterfall at the lake and bar. codemadness.org 70
336 i * Scatty, Old Camp, 50 ore, usually sitting on bench, near the arena. codemadness.org 70
337 i * Two-handed weapons have the highest damage, but are slower. codemadness.org 70
338 i * Get at least the first tier of one-handed training. It will change the codemadness.org 70
339 i combat animations and make combat less slow and clunky. codemadness.org 70
340 i * For ranged skills: codemadness.org 70
341 i * Dexterity (increases damage and meeting equipment requirements). codemadness.org 70
342 i * Cross-bows have high damage and are very good. codemadness.org 70
343 i * Cross-bow: the path for cross-bow training is easier in the old camp. codemadness.org 70
344 i When you become an Old Camp guard then Scorpio can train you. Later in codemadness.org 70
345 i the game in chapter 4 after some story progression he will train everyone. codemadness.org 70
346 i * For mage characters: codemadness.org 70
347 i * Investing a little bit into strength, lets say 30 STR is OK. codemadness.org 70
348 i * Magic skills are powerful but are a bit clunky and slow. codemadness.org 70
349 i * Joining the Old Camp (fire mage) or New Camp (water mage) for the magician codemadness.org 70
350 i path is probably easier. codemadness.org 70
351 i * Harvest animals (not necessary): codemadness.org 70
352 i * Early investments of a few skill points into getting skins, teeth and codemadness.org 70
353 i claws from animals is OK (it is easy enough to get a lot of ore if you loot codemadness.org 70
354 i everything though). codemadness.org 70
355 i * Lockpicking (not necessary): training in lockpicking only reduces the codemadness.org 70
356 i chance to break locks when you fail the combination. Investing in it is OK but codemadness.org 70
357 i not necessary. A small cheat: the lock pick combination stays the same, you codemadness.org 70
358 i can save and reload the game to avoid losing lockpicks. codemadness.org 70
359 i * Bad skill investments to avoid: codemadness.org 70
360 i * Sneak and pickpocket are nearly useless. codemadness.org 70
361 i codemadness.org 70
362 iOverall recommendation: I'd recommend a hybrid of melee/magic or melee/range. codemadness.org 70
363 iEarly game for melee: get max strength to 100 and get at least the first tier codemadness.org 70
364 iof one-handed training. codemadness.org 70
365 iIn the later game focus more on ranged combat or learning the magic circles. codemadness.org 70

367 i# Late-game fun tip: when the Old Camp turns against you codemadness.org 70
368 i codemadness.org 70
369 iBefore you go to Xardas's old tower (where you get the spell to teleport to the codemadness.org 70
370 icircle of Magicians of Fire in the Old Camp) you can go to the Old Camp and codemadness.org 70
371 ienter it by using the transform into meatbug spell and crawl under the door or codemadness.org 70
372 iusing the transform into bloodfly spell. codemadness.org 70
373 i codemadness.org 70
374 iUseful NPCs to murder: codemadness.org 70
375 i* Huno (the blacksmith) in the Old Camp has usually a lot of materials worth much ore. codemadness.org 70
376 i* Fisk (trader) has lots of swords and items. codemadness.org 70
377 i* Other NPCs, especially ones you have traded with before. You can get the items back codemadness.org 70
378 i for "free" >:) codemadness.org 70
379 i* Arto (one of the elite guards near Gomez) has a nice one-handed sword. codemadness.org 70
380 i codemadness.org 70
381 iNOTE: some NPCs at this point are invulnerable (Thorus, Scar, Gomez). codemadness.org 70
382 i codemadness.org 70
383 iFun things: codemadness.org 70
384 i codemadness.org 70
385 i* Use the rain of fire spell to burn everyone. codemadness.org 70
386 i* Spawn many golems or army of undead in the middle of the camp. codemadness.org 70
387 i* Mindcontrolling low-level NPCs and doing stupid things. codemadness.org 70
