Australian version.... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/think.gif" alt="" />

aren't they english too.... or do they say things like,

"throw another imp on the barbie there DK ole mate" <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ROFL.gif" alt="" />
or....
"that's not a knife.....
(pulling out unique deathblade of Rannar)
...this is a knife" ,
or,
instead of saying, "i got me a donk", it'll be more like "i got me a DK"

and i'm sorry for the <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/offtopic.gif" alt="" /> but couldn't resist this one... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ouch.gif" alt="" />

I think they fixed the bug in the Australian version when you threw the boomerang it didn't come back.

And the Imps are now called Chuzzlewollops! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />

Hi,

Australian and English version have two different type of starforce protection. That's why there are 2 different patch <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />.

I have to pay that one! Nice pun.

Good to see they've made a patch for us Aussies. Unfortunately a 25meg download is out of the question on my dial-up modem connection. I wish that games companies would set up some sort of patch distribution system on disk, via the retail stores, for those without broadband or with no internet at all. By the time they turn up on magazine CDs (occasionally) I've always finished the game.

After all, they use the same network to distribute demo disks and other promo stuff - just not the fixes for the mistakes they make... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/disagree.gif" alt="" />

Perhaps they should require the local distirbutors to do it as part of the licencing package? But I doubt it will happen.

That's simply not true for everybody. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/sad.gif" alt="" />

It depends entirely on where you are, how good your local connections are, what part of the world you're downloading to and from etc.

I also need to get this patch and there's no way it will take an hour. I just downloaded a download manager so that I can leave it running overnight and if the patch itself downloads at the same rate it will take 7 hours!!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cry.gif" alt="" />

Most downloads from here start off fairly fast and then quickly drop back to a slow crawl. If I lived a few kilometers down the road I could get broadband, but not where I live.

<img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" /> Thanks for the sympathy! (Oh yes, nice imp on the barbie joke too!)

As it turned out I downloaded a download manager that Raze put me onto and tried it out on the 1.45 patch. Some whizzbang Chinese job that splits the file up into multiple threads and can get more than one simultaneously.

I fired it up and it started reporting 45 to go, 40, 35, 20, 15... all in the space of about fifteen minutes - until it finally settled down to reporting a steady 10-12. Wow! I thought, this looks amazing.... until I grabbed the dividing line and expanded the time column. It was HOURS not minutes!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />

Fortunately my friend at the local computer shop offered to get it for me via his home broadband. It took 8mins 33 secs.

I know the feeling, Kris. I switched to broadband recently, and it makes all the difference.

Not really mate. The few kilometers down the road would put me in Midland - a town so ugly that it has been said that if the world had two *rseholes, Midland would be both of them. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Whereas I now live on 5 acres of beautiful bushland, with lovely views, surrounded by wildlife, in a house I rather like (that I designed and built myself). Some things are worth sacrificing. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />

It would be nice if patches were also available some other way, but I guess it's unlikely.

Thanks oh mighty orc. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

I couldn't have done it without the support of my lovely wife who brought in the money while I did the building. Saved us a heap doing all the work myself.

Had enough left over to put another toy in the carport (makes a change from playing RPGs... ).

In game review terms, the 'other' toy is graphically appealing (to me anyway). Awesome sound. Suitable for both leisurely play and also for those days when you feel more like some fast adrenaline-charged Diablo 2 style action. (No it’s not a Diablo – I wish – it’s an RX8). Extensively tested before release (although, ironically, it appears that even cars aren’t entirely bug-free these days. On its last service the latest upgrade patch was applied to its engine management computer!) Definitely one for an RPG fan who appreciates a bit of Magic in his life…. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />

Enough off topic waffle from me... I'll get thrown off the forum, but here's a pic:
