2.9 Patch Notes
---------------
- Czech language support v3.0 has been implemented. Some glitches in czech language strings has been fixed. All remaining skills descriptions with english strings has been translated. Czech support should now be complete. There are still some minor bugs, but all comes from the original version..
- Gleamcarvers is now "very fast", like in TCv4 patch (thanks to Fruska for bugfinding)
- Unique cannon "Static coil" now deal physical damage, but only on newly created items (thanks to Antediluvian for bugfinding)
- Unique pistol "Darkray's Devastation" now have some physical damage in description, but only on newly created items (thanks to Antediluvian for bugfinding)
- Order of receiving Lolli's quests at Oxford street station was changed again, due to the problems. Perhaps it will be fine at last..
- Dialog with Gunny, while opening the entrance to the Old crypt, is now longer. You will find out why Gunny suddenly speaks normally. This dialogue was not created by me, was hidden in the original game data.
- I found in game data one dialog ready for Lord Arphaun. He should have said it after Sydonai death. So, until you complete the last main quest of the game, you can now go to Lord Arphaun, talk to him a get end game reward (5 skill points and 15 stat points, quest is available in both difficulties).
- Rashaverak now can drop one new item. Item has no function in the game, but surely many players will raise old memories. Item can be sold at a fair price at vendors.
- Few new loading tips has been added.

Mod was once again tested for the entire pass through the game (thanks to Marcelka), everything should be fine..
