Random Events no longer sometimes happen more frequently than intended when saving and loading games (810).Random Events are no longer prevented from occurring in the first five turns after entering a game from the main menu (810).It is also available freely through a Differential Updater, although it should be noted that in this case, no documentation or individual patches are included – instead, the player is referred to this wiki for change logs, while components are only possible to remove separately if their relevant text files can be obtained through other means. However, it should be noted that some fixes and improvements do depend on earlier or more generic ones, which can still prevent them from being reverted on their own.Īs noted above, the Community Patch is bundled with all new purchases of the game. In addition to keeping up with the habit of trying to make each change individually reversible, the Community Patch breaks up the previously single-file Insecticide, allowing all of its changes to also be applied or removed separately. Most notably, Encounter Zone and Treasure generation has been almost completely reverted to its v1.31 state players can once again gain half of their opponent's remaining Mana crystals when conquering their Fortress and the keyboard shortcuts to activate certain GUI elements are no longer different than the original's. While the Community Patch is based on, and can be considered the continuation of, the previous unofficial versions, a number of default feature changes have been either removed entirely or made optional to provide a game experience closer to the last Simtex version. The current version number of the patch is 1.52.03. Unlike Insecticide and the aforementioned two, it is an official release, included with all new purchases of the game along with the last version produced by Simtex, v1.31.

The Master of Magic Community Patch is a collaboration between the current owner of the Master of Magic franchise, Slitherine Software UK Limited, and the creators of the Unofficial Patches v1.50 and v1.51. Slitherine's Master of Magic launcher allows playing separate copies of v1.31 and the Community Patch, as well as Caster of Magic if purchased.
