did you install the patch after this game was started?
the patch will only take effect on games started after it has been installed. if you had already started the game, then installed the patch, that could be the problem.
hmm that would explain my chars resistances/Magic Barrier problem and not getting my res back after installing patch half way. It seems it does not recalculate your res from items and skills, just takes whatever value is in the save file/'snapshot'?
