Gothic 3 - Union Modpack 1.2.6 Update (2024)

UNION+ Hotfix 1.2.4 Changelog

New content:

Added custom ModPack by DenRigel.

1) Achievements Mod - This mod contains a set of hidden mini quests/achievements that reward players for meeting certain conditions. This is the successor to the mini quests from the QuestPack and Lively Towns Mod.

2) Quest Edit - This modification contains localized fixes to the quests of the original game. These include resolving the conflict situation around Avogadro in Trelis (it is now possible to collect 100% reputation without killing the alchemist), removing quest items from NPC inventories, a small redistribution of reputation in enclaves, and more.

3) Fixed Pockets - this modification revises the pocketing mechanics, making it similar to its counterparts in "Gothic 2: Night of the Raven" and "Chronicles of Myrtana: Archolos". All named NPCs have personalized scripts for stealing and unique loot; the possibility of failure is completely eliminated: the hero can either pick his victims' pockets or not.

4) Paid Bonus Mod - the modification reworks the earning of permanent bonuses, which the player achieved in the original game by completing certain quests.

Arcania/Risen Model Pack:

1) The modification is renamed to Knight Chronicle due to a change in concept. It is now a story modification.

2) Added a large macro quest with two storylines leading to different endings.

3) Added a set of armor upgrades for Dexterity, similar to the previous armor for Strength. Rebalanced armor properties, armor production, recipe costs, and armor acquisition.

4) Now almost all high level items from the mod are not sold at vanilla merchants (with rare exceptions), but can be obtained as quest rewards.

5) Added new weapons (two-handed, one-handed swords, hand weapons) as well as new items, crafting recipes, arrows, etc.

6) Added new NPCs as well as unique enemies.

7) Added a new type of monster with a unique hunting trophy.

8) Thanks to our friend fyryNy, crocodile rats now have Gothic 2 voiceovers and don't use varan sounds.

9) Changed lord armor from LTM mode. It now comes with a helmet, changed its properties and how to get it (slightly).

10) Increased the number of desert vultures to make it easier to find their skins. The large egg is now called a vulture skin, as originally intended (less than half a year ago).

11) Fixed normal maps and textures of some items.

12) The mod is fully voiced in Russian.

1) Redesigned handling of arrows and darts on the workbench. For this purpose, the possibility of collecting firewood from Myrtle tribes was implemented.

2) Improved attacks with one-handed weapons have been slowed down, and the original animations have returned.
