1. Introduction

Welcome to the world of Ancaria!
Please read the following steps carefully.


2. Latest Changes

A) Hotkeys

[F9]
Quicksave Function: The current position is saved. If you have quicksaved a position, you can exit the game. Once you load the quicksave you will reappear at the place where you quicksaved.
However, please be aware of the following:
o The quicksaved position will be overwritten by the following three actions:
+ the character dies
+ the character has clicked on a Soulstone
+ you load another save game
o Once you loaded your quicksave game the current position is NOT automatically saved again. In order to save it, you will have to execute [F9] once more.
o All enemies are back after loading a quicksaved game! Be careful, because it could be dangerous to quicksave in an area where you stand around lots of enemies or in front of a dragon ...

[Ctrl] + [Left Mouse Button] on Item
Quick sell and buy items: If you hover your mouse over an item you want to sell or buy you can speed up the sell/buy process by holding [Ctrl] while clicking on the item. That way, you won't get any confirmation queries.

[Ctrl] + [Left Mouse Button] on Portrait
Team-Teleportation: When you are playing a Multiplayer game, you can use this combination to teleport directly to the location of any other player you are grouped with.

[Ctrl] + [Left Mouse Button] on Player
Trading: Opens the trade menu on the selected character.

[Shift]
Increasing the defense: When being attacked, use [Shift] to reduce the damage inflicted by the attacks of your enemy.

[Mouse Wheel]
Zoom: Scrolling the mouse wheel allows you to change the zoom perspective and the camera angle at the same time.

[Middle Mouse Button]
Setting and changing camera position: Hold the [Middle Mouse Button] and move your mouse to change camera angle.

[Middle Mouse Button] on the Map
Opening the minimap: Move the cursor over the map and click [Middle Mouse Button] to open the minimap on the world map using this hotkey. Move the mouse to look at all unlocked areas.

B) Sacred 2 Community Network

o Compare yourself to others in a big highscore ladder!

o Get in touch with other characters and players.
o Search, sell and buy items at the Marketplace.
o Create your own friends list and meet your friends.

6. Technical Notes

Please make sure that you have no applications running in the background (e.g. anti-virus software). These applications should be deactivated.

Please also make sure that you have the latest updates and Service Packs installed with Windows XP / Windows Vista. The most recent updates on the creation date of this Readme file are Service Pack 3 for Windows XP and Service Pack 1 for Windows Vista. In order to install these Service Packs please run a Windows Update from the Internet Explorer / Tools / Windows Update.



7. Driver Help

Important notice: Always make sure to deactivate all applications (especially your Anti-Virus software) before installing a driver, as it might interfere with the self-configuration of the driver you are installing.

If you are experiencing problems with your game, an outdated (graphics card) driver might well be the cause. Even if you just recently purchased your graphics card the drivers might be outdated as the card could have been manufactured several months earlier and only the drivers available at that time will be included with your hardware. Here is how you can find the latest drivers.

Before installing any drivers please make sure that you know exactly which chip-set type your graphics card features!
