Version 1.5 of the High Resolution Patch for Arcanum has been released:

Version 1.5

• The patch is now configured and applied via a config file, no more command line prompts.
• Many more settings and features are now available in the config file, to be further configured by the user to their liking.
• The vertical position of the middle screen menus (e.g. inventory or load save) can now be set to top, bottom or center (default).
• Most UI graphics have been cleaned up, the top shading has been removed and full size borders have been added.
• Added fullscreen backgrounds to the main menu, 3 variants are available: just black, fade to black, fullscreen wooden background (also applies to options and credits).
• Compiled a completely new crisp sharp size 18 dialog font which is true to the original.
• Increased preload distance, so that you won't see stuck objects at very high resolutions. This feature is also user configurable.
• Increased broacast distance, so that the followers can heed your commands at greater distances. This feature is also user configurable.
• Splash screens are now centered.
• Fixed all lingering UI bugs, such as the map menu navigation button not working properly.
• Resolved the issue with the Half Ogre Island captain not spawning.
• Added options to force the game to use windowed mode, software rendererer and double buffer.
• Scrolling distance is no longer patched to be smaller, and both scrolling distance and scrolling FPS can now be configured in the config file.
• Streamlined and cleaned up a lot of code. All patch scripts are fully commented.
• Fixed a 'run as administrator' prompt on newer versions of Windows.
• The DDrawCompat wrapper is included in the patch and can be optionally installed, recommended for Windows 8/10 users.
