No ini file in Gothic 1

Hi, I just bought Gothic 1 from someone on Ebay. Not sure what version it is. The game works fine with a few bugs but I'm stuck in Chapter 2 & I wanted to use Marvin Mode. I went into the Gothic file and there is no .ini file! Could this be a pirated version? If so, is there anywhere to download the file from somewhere? Additionally, I keep seeing a patch to upgrade to version 1.08 but can't seem to find it to download? I tried pressing S, typing Marvin, pressing S again and I get no letters in upper left corner. Thanks, jaguar10

installdir/system/gothic.ini

What I'm wondering though, is why would it mean it's pirated if it doesn't have an .ini file?

hmmmm the game works without the .ini file?? maybe sbdy ca e-mail it to u

I would think that you could tell the difference between a pirated-non pirated disc.

Is it on a generic cd?

Uninstall the game and install it again. Gothic automatically creates a default gothic.ini if it doesn´t find one on startup. If this doesn´t happen something is broken.

The patch should be easy to find with Google.

jaguar10, also check out this post: Gothic 1 Problems.

BTW, I hope you guys have noticed that the question is 3 months old, and that jaguar10 hasn't visited the forums since.

that guy is stupid the game doesn't work without the ini file---at least on my PC
