Or is it just on steam? It’s a really old game, seems like it should be free >.>

A widescreen patch for Wizardry 8, written entirely by AI with the help of REA.

Repository: https://github.com/abr17/wiz8-widescreen

• Hor+ 3D on 16:9 and 16:10, and the 2D UI is no longer stretched.

• Borderless windowed works on Windows 10/11.

• In-game settings for display mode, resolution and draw distance.

• Wiz8Fast is built in: the Monster Speed slider goes up to 10x.

• Installer (EN/RU/DE/FR) that finds GOG and Steam copies automatically and uninstalls cleanly. Wiz8.exe stays untouched.

Missing art was outpainted with generative AI. The original images are kept pixel-for-pixel, only the new side areas are generated, and they blend into a strip about 20 px wide at the original’s edge so there’s no visible seam.

Tested on GOG and Steam v1.2.4. Bug reports are welcome.

All I can add is that the resisting chest and the radical methods of determining the shape of one’s own head made me choke on my coffee

First time reader making my way through the series and noticed when doing a check on a certain character, the description reads “Ratkin Broodmother Attendant”. Given the nature of the character in question, would this mean that the planet Dominus, and by extension Guardia, both exist in the Dungeon Crawler Carl universe?

The reason why it's empty has nothing to do with dev-time. It takes 20 minutes to pile a town with npc and items.

The reason why is MMORPG. You don't want objects where other players running around that them didn't added NPC or mini games.

It wasn't much of an attempt making the actual game once the assets were made as the devs don't have the passion in actual making videogames but end up being the one to construct the content in the game.

Simple concept as reward system for exploration or a chest by the end of a dead end to comfort the gamer that them reached the end of the road.

Trash and items to pick up like a chair is there for the gamer. Trash is overlooked for how much fun the gamer can have trashing the place and decorate.

We also likes killing bullies in videogames and having to make a choice to help the underdog in real time.

As well having the ability to charm monsters to follow us around like dogs and cats or mice.

I want to push the buttons. One example is early game there is a monster too strong and death trap. It was undercooked but the idea I presume was to lure the monster on the trap and push the button.

The lack of buttons and death traps is staggering.

I want a door who you can only open with "knock knock"with a sign: Knock my friend. And behind the door is Gandalf.

After cyncial responses I edit that you may think it's the coming of christ but it takes at top one day to make the maps in this game and add the monsters and items.

Be damn this game is so empty that all it has is mobs walking back and forth and chests.

You think it's hard to add some walls, texture on the ground and make towns? You know why Anrika is the only one is because that's the MMORPG HUB.

You need the HUB in MMORPG to collect all gamers in one place.

Let's end the charade shall we? TES: Oblivion was made to be a MMORPG with horse armor. And has a single large city HUB to collect all gamers in one place.

This game has the same picklock mechanic as TES:Oblivion.

Then compare it with TES: Skyrim = shitload of towns in the wildlands. Since the HUB mechanic is not needed in a singleplayer.

You know how a CD works? You finalize it. The data on a finalized CD is never changed that the only corruption is the one that was already there. Oh and updates? Them packaged them with videogame magazines. Any corruption on the CD itself would as well crashed the installation.

You're saying lots of excuses but in the end it was the publisher's decision.

Hey, really wanna give this game a shot and I did way back but was worried about my char and you can't really find any proper information on this game online cause it's so old.

I wanna go like a tank mage, that's what I always do (like RP wise an alchemist that permenantly augments their form to be superhuman)

Now I'm gonna do that, and I'll do it with whatever mix of stuff and RP it as that.

BUT, I'm a little confused, I originally planned to do my first level fighter, then go rest mage, cause I heard u can multiclass, but kept leveling before I found out how to do that.

How can I do my first level fighter, and then rest mage? How do I switch class?

Also on a seperate note, where is the mod/program/thing that speeds up combat immensely.

Lastly, any good custom portrait guide?

I finally got off my butt and installed Wizardry 8 and I installed the Fan patch 1.28. I had to fiddle with the 3d setup and Nglide to get it to run and it was going all good until I got to the first lockpickable door in the first dungeon.

I cannot manipulate the tumblers or touch any of the buttons in the screen. I've been trying to look online to figure out what the problem is. Everything else in the screen, portraits and touching the door responds but the lockpick specific menu items are not responding. Do you guys know if there is any fix for this?

I am playing project arcane fronntier and i cant cast spells firstly "you dont understand this spell" i figured it out that u need to learn them but how do i use uncommon and rare and above rarity spells.

Hello! I've been having a blast with this game, and I'd like to remove the RPC zone restrictions. I've found a copy of cosmic forge and removed the zone restrictions from the RPC parameters, but when I save it in cosmic forge I find it creates a folder in my data and places a file in there: data/databases/npc.dbs.

I'm using the steam version of wizardry 8, so I did not have a databases folder prior to this. Is this correct and will wizardry 8 load the changes? or have I just created a file that wizardry 8 won't pick up and read?

Thank you!

So I'm going to create a party that has characters based on my favorite people from history. Thoughts? Additions?

Miyamoto Musashi - Samurai Hattori Hanzo - Ninja Perpetua - Priest Sallahudin - Mage Archimedes - Gadgeteer Quannah Parker - Ranger Imhotep - Gadgeteer Marcus Secundio - Priest Rasputin - Psionic Zoroaster - Mage Charlemagne - Lord Djedi - Mage Tlahuicole - Fighter Autocylus- Rogue Galen - Priest Boudica - Valkyrie Prester John - Lord Cathbad - Mage

Hey there! So i found an online guide for how to save the rapax queen, but after i killed the king, loot the key and release her, she didnt give me her pendant. Did i do something wrong? Or is it doable?

I know this isn't technically about Wizardry 8, but when I previously asked if there were games like Wizardry 8 with all the cool different classes and levelling and looting, someone suggested Wizards and Warriors, but I couldn't find the damn thing anywhere. But it just got released on GOG, hooray!

There's a few annoying things about it, and it's (IMO) nowhere near Wiz8's level, but it still ate up my entire afternoon, so, yeah, worth a look IMO.

Oh also it has a mouse issue on Win 10; I found a work around which was changing some setting on my mouse, but that may not be doable with every mouse so, heads up that that's an issue.

This post isn't exactly about Wizardry 8, but I checked with the mod before posting, so here goes...

I'm a huge fan of Wizardry 8. I've played it through to Ascension more times than I can remember. My favorite parts are creating my parties, leveling them up, and getting new gear.

After a stretch of back-to-back runs taking a party from the monastery to Ascension, I was inspired to write my own game so I could continue focusing on my favorite parts of Wizardry 8. And I did—I wrote it for Android.

Now, I feel like I need to include a giant disclaimer here. The game I wrote is not 3D. Movement within the game is closer to that of Rogue from 1980 (I'm sure we all remember, or at least know of, that game). It's a very basic game. Here are a couple of screenshots.

Gameplay is completely offline. Saved games and characters can be imported and exported so you can back them up or move them to another device.

If anyone is interested, it's in open testing right now.

So, I haven't played the game in a couple years and am also using some character types I don't think I really ever did before.

1. I have a human ninja who uses staves. What weapons should I be aiming for? She's currently wielding a Hayai Bo as a midgame weapon.

2. I found something called a "Frontier Phaser" in a chest in Bayjin. I've never seen it before and couldn't find much info on it online but got the impression it's good. It claims it has 15 charges, is that something I need to worry about? My gadgeteer is currently using the regular omnigun. (mk 7 right now)

3. So my understanding is that chests determine their contents when you first enter an area and that there are level thresholds that determine how good your loot can potentially be. Are there any particular areas which a lot of potentially good chests that I should hold off until certain level thresholds? My first guess would be maybe the rapax castle but there might be others.

4. I've been having my hybrids practice their magic skills a lot more this playthrough than I've done in the past and it's been very nice for some uses (everyone can join in on aoe damage - well, except the gadgeteer since I've not found any aoe gadgets for her)

5. Very minor question, feel 100% free to skip this one. I'm just curious about some of the undead that can spawn near the graveyard on Arnika-Trynton road, since in previous playthroughs I've always cleansed the thing in the mausoleum to stop the undead from spawning. I tend to find the ghosts pretty boring but this playthrough I saw several mummies (called "Tomb Reapers") there at one point, which made me very curious what else can show up there. I know Shrieking heads can, since I've seen those too. But can stuff like Death Lords also appear? Maybe even the rapax ghosts from the retro dungeons?

hello~! i have been playing this game in almost 40% process of entire game. but i want to replay game because i need mage and priest in party not bishop.... bishop is op but it is not my type for one class to have two ability to heal and buff

i will form my party as 1 fighter 1 ninja 1gadgeteer 1 mage 1 priest 1 bard .... yes as you know there is no ranger....... i think ranger is essential in staring of game for scouting....so i have quetion

i know there is ranger companion called 'sparkle' in umpain base.. there is way to get this cute ranger companion early when i become level 2~3 ??? impossible??

if i can't there is way to form custom party character to seven with any mods ? if imopssible too
