Got an interesting email today from Lion Head Studios, the maker of Black and White. Figure I would post it for those that don't know there is a new patch out there. Looks like they are cooking up some interesting features also. Might have to start playing it again in the future:
"Hello.
I'd like to thank you for buying Black & White and hope you've had many enjoyable hours playing it.
I'm writing to inform you that a free Patch for Black & White is now
available to download from www.bwgame.com. This Patch not only fixes some of the problems we've been alerted to in the game, but also adds a number of new features to the world of Black & White.
On behalf of the entire Lionhead team I'd like to thank you again for supporting Black & White, and I hope you will get even more enjoyment out of the game by installing the enhancements within the Patch. In addition to this official Patch, we've been working on a host of exciting additions to Black & White. These, too, will be available as free downloads from www.bwgame.com, so please do visit the web site.
Below is a schedule of events for www.bwgame.com. Make sure you stop by and catch these, and if you haven't already seen them, there are already new multi player maps, audio out-takes, and the Black & White Music Interface available in the site.
16th July 2001 - Villager speech available. Hear the innermost thoughts of your tribespeople.
6th August 2001 - Soccer. Enable your villagers to play matches against other tribes.
13th August 2001 - Black & White chat facility. This chat function will enable you to send and receive messages between Black & White, the new instant messenger facility and the bwgame.com web site.
Finally, we'd also like to say a big thank you to everyone who sent us game-playing reports. They were all invaluable during the making of the
Patch.
