( or may be provide me with that fix ) thanks RJ

Funny I made that fix like 7-8 years ago;)) Sadly I don't have it anymore, but the game was fixed afterwards. I only have the Steam version and I didn't checked in ages though, but last time I played it (2011) was perfectly fine... This was the normal release though...

Should you remember anything in which direction i might go in order to create a fix myself, you are most welcome to let me know :-) Thanks Rj

I haven't played this in a while, but I remember setting one of the display settings to the highest value and all lighting was rendered in 3d. I can install the game again at the weekend and try and find the setting, but try setting light quality and particle quality to the highest settings

I am playing the add on of arcania now. (Greenpepper Arcania Gold) All those bugs have been removed and the graphics are amazingly well. No modifications of an ini or so need to be done, shadows dont need to be OFF either. Great lighing now !
