I can't say anything about the date, we sent the fix, and I can't predict Atari's actions. And I haven't heard about the hint to avoid crash. As soon as the patch is out, I'll post it here.

I figured as much. Oh well...worth a try. =D

Right now I have a save before and after the Kracken fight. Which one should I continue playing with in order to go back and complete the quest once the patch is released? I have dealt with weird save game problems relating to patches in the past, so it's best to be on the safe side.

Also, any other juicy tidbits about whats included on the patch? =D

For the Gamers Gate version...do they get the patch from Atari? or did you send it to Gamers Gate also?

.\.BMRender\rmode.cpp(1583): DirectX call failed: -1, -1,D3DERR_INVALIDCALL (The method call is invalid. For example, a method's parameter may not be a valid pointer)

When is this going to be fixed? This game is completely useless for me and others who have this error.

Why is there no programmer here who worked on this providing an explanation for a bug like this? and possible fix.

If I was a programmer I wouldn't help such a rude person. You didn't even provide your system specs.

Although he is certainly rude, a fix would be nice. Also, I did give my system specs and have already tried all solutions listed in the thread (as I mentioned earlier in thread). Apparently this was a problem for the russian release as well- I can't tell if it was fixed or not though, can't speak russian.

Another bug in the atari disk version - when you kill the turtle and give him blood the text is not line wrapped so it scrolls off the side of the screen and you cannot read it.

I hope it isn't important because obviously I can't read it - perhaps you could post what the turtle said ?

[I can read: If karrakh ever appraoches, you'll (rest is off the screen)
