I don`t sure if this is the right place to write. but where can I get a patch for the game. What is the diffrents between the normal version (I mean 1.1.1) and the patched one? |

I'm not sure what you're talking about. Version 1.1.1 is the latest version. In the guidebook there is some talk about Celestrix and Lust for Glory not being available without a patch, this could refer to a hack that enables these to be generated. Where you would get such a hack I don't know. But there is no official patch for after version 1.1.1. You drop the golden ball. You kick the golden ball. It slides to the west. Suddenly Harry Potter, the apprentice wizard, appears! "That's not how you play Quidditch! are you even listening?" Which direction? (123456789) 4 Harry Potter, the apprentice wizard, is hit by a bolt of acid! Harry Potter, the apprentice wizard, is annihilated. You hear the ecstatic cries of a large crowd!

I don't have any patches but i remember someone saying they had it patched so any artifact could be a precrown. Unless your talking about something like that, there is no official patch, and using one would disqualify you from the hall of fame. |

I got that one from http://folk.ntnu.no/houeland/adom/ , in addition to making precrownings more random it makes a couple of changes to the game, monsters not blind raging themselves(or you) to death, and jackals not getting so experienced as fast. I like those changes. It's not official, but I don't care. If you're feeling happy, don't worry, it'll go away.

Being able to get any artifact from precrown (well, they're determined at birth) is IMHO quite nice, and this may be what Thomas intended, the "standard set" of artifacts being a bug (that's what I heard, anyway.) Removing blind rage makes the game easier, but may be necessary to remove the bug (who wants to have Filk kill himself and lose opportunity for ultra ending?) However, the "uberjackal effect" is not all that bad - it has been included to stop excessive farming. It may be a bit too strong, but playing without it IMHO makes the game too easy. I generate my characters on a patched version, then play on an unpatched one - so it is as hard as it should be (sadly with the blind rage bug...) and I can find any artifact in the game. |

Will the use of this patch concidered as cheating? |

Correct me if i'm wrong but i think i read somewere that most monsters relative in power to the jackal level up after about 20-30 some kills while the jackal levels after ten or so. Can't remember where i read it though. |

Maybe not cheating, but "easy mode" :) |

It is not cheating, but hacking. Bug or not, it changes the game. But the only detriment that brings is pretty much being disallowed from entry into any version's Hall of Fame. Also, I don't think Thomas would approve. You drop the golden ball. You kick the golden ball. It slides to the west. Suddenly Harry Potter, the apprentice wizard, appears! "That's not how you play Quidditch! are you even listening?" Which direction? (123456789) 4 Harry Potter, the apprentice wizard, is hit by a bolt of acid!

Also - precrowns are random, it's crownings that are predetermined. You can check by savescumming, everytime you get a diffrent artifact. A pessimist sees a dark tunnel. An optimist sees a light at the end of that tunnel. A realist sees a train. And the train driver sees three idiots on the tracks. |

True, but not all artifacts are available when the game decides to create a random artifact(precrowning, surge of power and the like). These are: the heavy crossbow "The Far Slayer" the obsidian quarrel "Thunderstroke" the scorched spear the hammer of the gods the rune-covered club "Skullcrusher" the glaive "Long Sting" the bracers of war the rune-covered sling "Whirlwind" the fine leather armor "Nature's Companion" the jet-black battle axe "Executor" the robes of resistance the staff of the archmagi the ring of immunity the rune-covered heavy mace "Purifier" the medium obsidian shield "Protector" the sapphire amulet "Preserver" the crown of leadership the dwarven pick axe "Hammerhead" the iron gauntlets "Ironfist" the black tome of Alsophocus the shining long spear "Soaker" the emerald dagger "Serpent's Bite" the rune-covered halberd "Wyrmlance" The patch changes it so that ALL artifacts can be generated. I think. At least I got the Iron Crown of Havlor or whatever it is as precrown. If you're feeling happy, don't worry, it'll go away.

Well, that's one of the features of the patch. It's also one reason why wins with patches aren't considered quite as pure as winning in the normal game. Waldenbrook, the dwarven shopkeeper, mumbles: "I'd offer 9 gold pieces for yer dwarven child corpse." |
