Hi dragonette:

Could you state which version you were playing before you patched? There is a 1.1 to 1.4 patch and there is a 1.3 to 1.4 patch. You would need to use the correct one to patch your game. Here is what you could try:

Put your saved games from before the patch in a folder on your desktop

Uninstall DL and do a fresh install of whatever version you have.

Patch the game using the appropriate patch

Restore your saved games back into the save folder.


Better yet, just scrap them. Cut your losses and start a new character. That is what I did, so I could make sure heraldries were working (which they didn't in versions prior to 1.4) and also so I could take advantage of character customization. Hopefully this will correct any problems or damage that occured. Good luck! :)

patch v1.4

Thanks for the reply. I am using v1.3 and therefore patched to v1.4. NO matter which way I try character does NOT move correctly it will move L to R, F and Back, but not around 360degrees, as it does at the moment. Is this a bug on the v1.4 patch.

I don't think it is a bug, no. I also had the 1.3 edition and patched using the 1.3 to 1.4 patch with no problems. The character I had at the time did not have their movement affected whatsoever and was fine. The only thing I can suggest is try what I said earlier, uninstall the game, do a fresh install from the disk and reinstall the patch.

I will also reiterate scrapping your old 1.3 character, not to be mean, but I think in the long run it will work out for the best. :)


*edit*
Just to be perfectly clear, you will need to use the correct 1.4 patch. There are several versions to download at the link I posted above, for various versions of the game. The correct patch must be used.

I am sure you know this already, but for anybody else who may read this with a similiar problem. This is the 1.3 to 1.4 patch download at Filefront.

This is for people who have 1.3 version and wish to patch their game to 1.4
