i also remember, last year when i played this game, i only used the 1.2 patch, and i had the same problem, where the only black chests that work for me are the ones with a static item in it, like the everstrike bow, the others just do the change jing. and this is with only one or two artifacts in my possession. if you or someone else, can tell me how to modify my files to fix that iwould be darn grateful. be a bummer not to have any artifacts, except for a few.btw, my game installs in ubisoft folder, not the one that the patchers are set for, which is 3Do i think, so ihave to guide it to the ubisoft one. dont know if that means my game is older or newer version or am i just special ?
