Essential improvements
Patches
- Patch 1.01 - this patch is already included in the Booster Pack as the pack brings the game to v1.05.
Booster Pack
- Intro logo videos may only show black/grey screen with sound. Keep pressing ESC until you reach the main menu. The only way to fix this is to run the game in Windowed mode
- The Booster Pack was a goodbye present to SEK's fans. The Pack contained 2 new heroes, 3 new missions and files for 9 wild animals as well as several bug fixes and an SDK for the game; however, the pack released was the beta version, so there were many bugs, including files missing for 1 of the wild animals, and it was only released in German.
| Booster Pack and the SDK Editor |

To enable the Booster Pack, create the shortcut of the Paraworld.exe with -enable boosterpack1 command line arguments. <path_to_game>\bin\Paraworld.exe -enable boosterpack1 To run the SDK Editor, create the shortcut of the PWClient.exe with -leveled -enable boosterpack1 command line arguments. <path_to_game>\bin\PWClient.exe -leveled -enable boosterpack1 |
Translated Booster Pack with Community Fixes
- Fan-translated versions of the pack which also contain several bug fixes caused by the beta version in the community patches as well as adding additional dinosaurs to the pack's SDK.
