640x480 Patch - Experience with the high res patch

[Taichi]

I haven't really been able to find any information or experience with the 640x480 patch. I understand that it can increase instability, but I'm curious about anyone's experience running in high res mode.

I started another thread regarding installation problems with Windows 2000, and although patch number three solved my problem, I still cannot change any of the settings other than volume or balance using the options screen. For some reason the little buttons that ring round the option menu are unresponsive except for volume and balance.

The new mod using the Gothic engine looks interesting, and I'm wondering if anybody knows how that is going. It is amazing to me that Outcast Two was canceled, because this is truly an extraordinary game unlike any other that I have played. Outcast really is a work of art.

Thanks,

Taichi
