В процессе New balance - Hello Friends, Apologies for English

[Nexarath]

Hello everyone,

I'm sorry to bring English to this forum, but my Russian is at best terrible, at worst non-existent, and Google Translate can only take you so far I have been doing okay with Google Translate and some helpful guides so far, but it can't help with everything If it's against the rules or whatever, I can bring Google Translate here too, hehe. I have only two questions:

1) Can someone either provide a save with everything done but no major statistic points allocated at the end of chapter one OR help me with how I can edit statistics with Marvin? The reason I ask is that I have a character that's done almost everything as a 1h strength build, but am now realizing I would much prefer to play a Shaman/2h spear dexterity character, or even a 2h str character that will go towards Templars + Shaman, instead of Paladin. I've already spent points on 60% one handed though, so it's annoying

2) If I use a save in Russian, is there any way to "fix" my quest log to show Google-translated English? Because I don't have Cyrillic alphabet installed (not sure how to do it on Gothic, or is it enough to install on Windows?) so I don't just get Russian, I get gibberish and nonsense, so it's hard to know which quests the person has completed.

3) Can I learn prospecting ore in chapter 1? I talked to Harad and Viper but it seems like you can only learn this in Valley of Mines? Could use a lot more iron ingots to make some more swords for bonuses...


Thanks in advance and sorry again

Hi.

1) Can someone either provide a save with everything done but no major statistic points allocated at the end of chapter one OR help me with how I can edit statistics with Marvin? The reason I ask is that I have a character that's done almost everything as a 1h strength build, but am now realizing I would much prefer to play a Shaman/2h spear dexterity character, or even a 2h str character that will go towards Templars + Shaman, instead of Paladin.

There is a special thread where players leave their saves. There are saves in the first chapter.

You can also fix the current save with the help of marvin. For example, remove unnecessary characteristics and add learning points. Just as much as you spent on training. With the guild is more complicated. If you have already joined a guild, it will be difficult to change it to other guilds. It's really better to look for a save.

2) If I use a save in Russian, is there any way to "fix" my quest log to show Google-translated English? Because I don't have Cyrillic alphabet installed (not sure how to do it on Gothic, or is it enough to install on Windows?) so I don't just get Russian, I get gibberish and nonsense, so it's hard to know which quests the person has completed.

I don't think anyone can help you with that.

3) Can I learn prospecting ore in chapter 1? I talked to Harad and Viper but it seems like you can only learn this in Valley of Mines? Could use a lot more iron ingots to make some more swords for bonuses...

To learn ore mining, you need to talk to the blacksmith ( Harad ) about steel blanks. Then talk to the viper and take his quest to find ore. After taking the quest Snipes will appear on the farm, if you answer him correctly he will teach you how to mine the ore.

Thanks a lot! Yes, I do also feel it's best to edit my save, but do you have a list of all Marvin commands, and how I can make marvin mode work? I haven't joined any guilds yet, so that's good. I do have one problem, I don't have the pause button on this damned keyboard (65% keyboard), so any tips on that? And also what are the commands for, for example 1h weapon skill , 2h weapon skill, str, dex, etc? Thanks again

@Nexarath,
Enable marvin mode: pause + marvin + esc.
Pressing the F2 button activates the console. You need to enter "edit abilites" (without quotation marks), a window will open with the settings of the character. There you can add/change learning points. enter "lp = amount", where instead of amount you specify the desired number of learning points.
The next step is to change the attributes of the character. Type "attribute", the characteristics window will open. Change it as you want. 0-1 is the current/maximum life of the hero. 2-3 is current/maximum mana. 4 is strength, 5 is dexterity.
Close this window by pressing esc, reopen the console and enter "edit abilites". This time you need to enter "hitchance" and change the weapon to the desired one. 1 - one-handed weapon, 2 - two-handed. 3 - bow, 4 - crossbow.
Close the window, exit marvin mode: pause + 42 + esc.

If you need more details on specific commands, try searching online: gothic 2 + marvin.
