After installing your 2.4.2 patch i got a lot of errors with unable game start! Here is logs: Disk.yandex.ru
I have licensed physical copy of Xenus 2 and it works ok with your 1.8 patch, installed over v1.6, but 2.4 and 2.4.2 immediately crash the game with same error. Only full game folder backup rescues me from endless reinstall Xenus 2...
UPD: Solved! For retail game version need some new and some old DLLs. All links in my discussion with Wesp5 on steam: Steamcommunity.com
UPD: Patch 2.4.2 fix FOR RETAIL VERSION ONLY! Disk.yandex.ru
I just uploaded a new version of 2.4 that includes the missing dlls and instructions on what to do with a Russian retail version.
do i need to do a audio mod along with this mod or do i only need this one?
If you have a game version without Russian audio you need a audio mod.
Would it be possible to replace the spiders with some other enemy?
I replaced some spiders with huge mantises and this could also be done for all of them.
Hi! I don't know if it's feasible, but can you increase the characters view distance? i've tried different .ini tweaks i've found in different forums but none of them seems to increase the 70m view distance. It's kinda ridiculous to have a 400m range on the SVD and 70m character distance
Sorry, but I have no idea how to do that.
Hey, man, really admire your dedication and work, am playing with your patches for years, though I do have a request. Can you provide a patch version that doesn't alter text stuff and cutscenes, only fixes? I play in original Russian language because I know it, so it's a bit jarring to play with rus sound and eng text, especially cutscenes. And same with Precursors. Would be quite grateful.
Sorry, but I don't think this is possible. For these patches all original Russian text has been swapped with English that had already been inside the game files and in Russian I wouldn't know what to fix anyway! I heard though that somebody is working on a Russian patch...
Well, I'm not asking you to fix anything in Russian localization, just to take out the English localization files (or just don't swap them) and cutscenes out of your neat installer and release an alternate version. Idk, if I understand correctly, that should be quite possible.
Вероятнее всего вам в стиме нужно взять файл 1resource и переименовать в resource , так как файл ресурс отвечает за язык в игре.
Sorry, but I don't know how to do that. Somebody else managed to swap the Russian text with the English one and provided me with the file. You should ask around if somebody in the Russian community can reverse this, because I can't!
Most likely, you need to take the 1 resource file in the incentive and rename it to resource, since the resource file is responsible for the language in the game.
The problem is that the resource file also includes most of the fixes!
It turns out that you need a person who should do localization back to Russian in this resource file?
Not really. You would need somebody who could export the Russian strings from the original game and import them again into the patch resource file.
