*squeal* I can't wait to play high-res Arcanum! Looks absolutely epic, as always. Kick ass work, Drog!

 

Drog, were you female, I would be begging to produce your babies. This looks amazing. Thank you very much.

 

I love your work about the patch, but this almost excites me more than all the content you've already fixed/restored/whatever'd.

Looking forward to it greatly!

 

Awesome Drog!
As always, thank you for all your work.

 

Woah. This might be awesome.

 

Added more screenshots of different resolutions.

Also, this.

 

Finally, my 1920x1200 widescreen will actually have the proper Arcanum ratios instead of forced stretching of a crappy 800x600 across a widescreen, screwing up the aspect ratios.

This + Drog's patch could be the final pushover that gets me to finish this damn game once and for all.

No rush buddy, you do this for free/fun/bribe money/whatever, but man......I'm looking forward to this pretty hardcore.

 

That looks amazing.

No more eyehurting.

 

Registered to show my respect to Drog Black Tooth. I should have done that earlier with first unofficial patch releases, but this pure extraction of awesomeness was the last drop. I wish every game had such enthusiastic person who will polish stuff for his own amusement.

Troika made incredibly good CRPG, but you made it perfect. I hope, once you finish with Arcanum you will check Baldur's Gate's modding possibilities.

Огромное спасибо за всё. Так держать!

 

Finally i can look further than just 10 steps.

Very good Droggy!
I am looking forward to it

 

So, I was courious Quin_Strabo..
When you decided to post in black, just how far up your ass was your head?

 

I think it's still up there somewhere.

 

As far as I'm concerned, Quin can keep his head wherever he likes. I like the black-on-garnet.

 

OK. What happened.... and why does my head have to be anywhere... I thought the whole black on red thing looked good... What, is there some kinda rule or something?

 

It took me a moment to realize something was different.

Everyone's head has to be somewhere. Where your's was when you came up with the idea of post in black text on dark background was the issue.
Rule: no. Common sense: required.

I stand corrected.
Rule: yes.
