Larian Studios Forums Divine Divinity (English) General Divine Divinity new version coming up

Lynn, or anybody who has DD: Remastered...

Will saves from earlier versions of DD (version 1.03) actually work w/ the new and improved DD: Remastered (1.04A and 1.05)?

Several people have reported that loading a save from the disk version into the remastered version either causes a crash, or loads ok but the game can not be saved after that. I don't know if that is generally the case, or not.
I've loaded saves made in the remastered version in the disk version and was able to save normally, but that's not the typical direction people would wish to move their saves.

Can I buy the remastered version of DD on GoG or Impulse without a Visacard?

I haven't a Visa and can only pay cash, using a billnumber to overwrite the exact amount of goldcoints, euh.. I mean .. "Euro's" of course ... or with pc-banking.

I wish to play DD now with a proper version (1.05) without bugs ... my V-1.0034A isn't without many bugs ... Okay, I can play the whole game to the end, but it would be very nice and great to play now all over again with a new Remastered Version, wooow ...
I still love playing DD !!!!!

Or comes this Remastered Version 1.05 out on a DVD/CD-Rom? I think not, so I hope someone can help me out? Please.
Many thanks in advance of a great Divine Divinity Fan!!

Impulse takes PayPay, which can be associated with your bank account (so pretty much the same as pc-banking).

Will DD Remastered ever be released on Steam?

I'd guess if DD isn't on Steam by now it probably will not be, but you could check when FoV and DKS are listed (assuming they will be) and see if DD is added as well. The publishers handled the digital distribution for D2:ED, but AFAIK Larian is dealing with them directly for the upcoming releases.
For now DD is available from GOG and Impulse, and will be available directly from Larian when they bring their digital distribution store online with the release of FoV / DKS.


Welcome to the forum.

Is it absolutely sure, that this remastered version won't be available in german?

When DKS is out and the demo created, etc, it is not entirely inconceivable that Larian could possibly divert some resources into other language versions of the remastered DD rather than get everyone working on Divinity 3 and their other projects. With Larian opening their own digital distribution store soon, it at least removes the need to find a German publisher/distributor, and may make a German version slightly less unlikely than it was before. AFAIK they have not publicly mentioned anything about a German remastered version, though, hypothetically or otherwise.

Well, it's a possibility, but I don't think so; I remember Lar telling they remastered a one-language version because it would be far too much work dealing with x different version for each language. Anyway, I know a fan made a "French-patch" for DD remasterized, maybe does it exist for German too?

Thanks for the replies Raze and scall, I hope there will be a german version in near future.

@scalla: I couldn't find anything about it. Would you please give me a link?

So if you already have Divine Divinity, do you just download the latest patch to get this remastered version?

No, there is no patch, you'd have to get the game again. ($6.00 USD at Good Old Games.)

I got Divine Divinty working at 1920*1080px by using DirectDraw as renderer. It looks like the remastered version (yes, I bought it either) and doesn't crash as it does, when I use Direct 3D as renderer.

I just paid a visit to the Larian Vault in order to buy DD and BD but they are not listed there. Did i miss something? if not its kind of silly that Larian's own games arent there for us to buy....

Indeed strange ... or maybe soon we see appear DD and BD on the Larian Vault ... and who knows what else more ?

Larian ....
Can you imagine, anno 2010 almost 2011, 9 years after the release of ... ,
.... gamers are still playing AND looking out for your great game ?

For me this sign says more than whatever I can write down "words of fame and glory" about
