There was a 607.2 KB update just now. What did it do?

[Snjake Blissken]

It seems to have installed a very suspicious unsigned TitanQuest executable...

That is a hotfix for the relic/charm issue.

I'm playing the german version of TQ AE (incl. Ragnarök, but not yet with Atlantis). If I look at a relic in the relic chamber (sorry, I don't know the correct english word), in the tooltip it still says "Shift + Right Click to use", i.e. the english text, not a german translation.

Could you please fix that? :)

Many thanks for your work on the update.
However, I have noticed 2 issues that have been bothering me.
Since the update, I haven't been able to change my game name when I am hosting online.
Also, when chatting on the in-game chat, pressing escape does not close the chat window, it instead types a square (unknown) character. Chat window must be closed manually by clicking 'x'.

Do not enter letters and numbers in the paasword, name, level +\-, ect. in Create Game window

Found fix - you need to delete one any letter in Game Name with using Delete key. After that everythink work.

Thanks for the patch!

With this update my Atlantis progress was totally reset! I started out in the third area of the expansion, where I left off, but a quest notification appeared saying I needed to talk to the person in Rhodes. When I traveled to Atlantis, all of the maps were unrevealed and the quest line started from the beginning.

Additionally, if I try to launch the game in Windows 10 safe mode then click the Enhanced option, my cursor is invisible.

When you try to host games online. You can't type in the boxes anymore.

Inventory still works bit bugged and there are some issues with cursor. Today I had such a funny situation when I sold something then my cursor changed to gold bag icon even when I exit game and picked my hero again.

Okay, I'll spell it out as per that note. Enhanced is the DX11 version of the game, Legacy is the DX9 version. If you have a newer PC then you probably want the Enhanced version, if an older machine then the Legacy one.

Thanks good sir.

That's a ma'am
