Free aiming is now also available as stand-alone patch ready to be used along-side virtually any Gothic 1 or Gothic 2 modification.

The patch comes with an option to disable free aiming from the game menu. All features are enabled except for re-usable projectiles, in order to not mess with the balance of the underlying mod.

Requirements

Gothic Gothic II: NotR
Version 1.08k_mod Report version 2.6.0.0
Ninja 2 (or higher)

Installation

Simply copy the file FreeAiming.vdf into the directory [Gothic]\Data\. To uninstall, remove the file again.

Settings

Free aiming is available in two configurations that are accessible from the game menu.

OFF Use Gothic's traditional auto aiming
BALANCED Free aiming in balanced configuration
REALISTIC More difficult with additional modulators on accuracy:
  • If the bow is not drawn to its full extend (see reticle animation),
    • the shooting distance decreases (faster gravity drop)
    • the accuracy decreases (lower hit chance)
    • the damage output is reduced
  • If the crossbow is not held steadily, i.e. no mouse movement (see reticle animation),
    • the accuracy decreases (lower hit chance)
    • the damage output is reduced
  • The crossbow has a weapon recoil (vertical camera shift) depending on the player's strength.
  • Moving while shooting reduces the accuracy by 20%

Additional settings can be made in the Gothic.ini as described here.
