This readme document will give you helpful tips to assist you in the unlikely event of any technical problems you might encounter with the Sacred demo. 2. Important Notice and Known Problems * 16 Bit Sound: Because of the limited size of the demo, the sound files (Music and Sound Effects) had to be compressed more than usual. This will become noticeable when playing the game through reduced sound quality. * Transparency on loading screen: On some systems, when the loading\saving screen appears, the desktop items can be seen and the mouse will react to the desktop. This should not cause a problem once the loading\saving has been completed. * Unable to change task while playing full screen mode: While playing the Sacred demo in full screen mode you will be unable to switch to desktop using the Task Changer (ALT+TAB). This is only possible when playing the Sacred Demo in Windowed mode. Please note: Programs that continuously come in the foreground (Phone software, etc.) could disrupt Sacred and cause it to become unplayable. * True-Color mode / Display errors while using auras: The Sacred Demo will run with 16 bit color depth. Certain magic spells (auras, for example) could cause errors to appear when they are displayed, or the shadow of your character could begin to flicker. Switching to ‘true color’ mode before the game starts will solve this problem, although the game will run approximately 30% slower. True color mode is therefore only recommended for systems which exceed the recommended System requirements. The game file must have ”vid32“ added to the command line, which is done by doing the following: - In Start`menu go to “Sacred Demo“, click the RIGHT mouse button choose “Properties“ from the menu that appears. - In the open ‘Properties’ window select the "Shortcut" tab, then edit the “Target” line after "(Game Directory)\Sacred.exe" and add "vid32" (without the “ before and after). The correctly edited ‘Target’ should look like this: "(Game Directory)\Sacred.exe" vid32 * Problems with Anti-aliasing: If anti-aliasing has been activated, graphical errors may be spotted on the main menu. In addition, the game will run slower so it is recommended you do not activate anti-aliasing through the Graphic Card driver. Alternatively, you can add the command line “filter” to the end of the Sacred.exe (see above for description on how to add to the command line - either add just “filter” or to add it to “vid32”). This should help in most cases. * Problems with switched Mousebuttons: If you have switched the left and right mouse buttons (common for left-handed users), then you can click the right mouse button to move your character (the character moves to the place on screen where you click) but you will not be able to steer the character by holding the right mouse button down (the character will only follow the first click and will not follow any other direction until another right click is performed). * Special Move "Backbreaker" for Gladiator: This skill is currently in development and is not fully functional. 3. Additional Game Description * Option menu: The two options „DSL“ and „ISDN“ currently have no effect on bandwidth use. These will be activated in the Release version though. * Changing between Atributes and Skills: You can switch between your Attributes and Skills by clicking on the small round button on the top left of your Attribute Screen. 4.
