About the patch
Titan Quest, and its expansion set, Immortal Throne, were the flagship products of IronLore Entertainment. Unfortunately, the studio has since closed down and there will be no more fixes or additions to the already great game.
This is where the Fanpatch comes in; the Fanpatch fixes many remaining bugs and flaws within the game and is the culmination of the hard work of many modders from
www.titanquest.net. The goal of the patch is to ensure that even though IronLore has closed its doors, Titan Quest will be continually updated through the efforts of its fans.
The patch tries its best to fix the game such as to the intent of the designers and does not make any balancing changes or creative changes (unless as necessary for the resolution of a particular problem).
Bugfix patch 1.17a was released to make digital versions (Steam, D2D, Impulse, etc...) compatible with retail versions. If you have a retail version, there's no need to download it again. For users with digital versions, it is adviced to use it, though the only noticable difference is that it changes the version number from 1.1sd to 1.17 - which makes it compatible with retail versions.
If you use this patch online, we would request you to put 1.17 somewhere in your name, so people can recognize you're using the fanpatch - thus preventing matching errors (1.17 users can see 1.1 users, but get an error when trying to connect).

Additional Features of v1.17
o AllSkins mod: a version of the AllSkins mod 0.8 has been included on the 1.17 fanpatch. That means that all the skin bottles from the latest AllSkins mod 0.8 have been added so players can see each others' skins online and trade bottles, and we've also included optional vendors so that players can purchase skin bottles from all versions, past and present, of the AllSkins mod inside the main game. To access this option, use the menu's "Unlock Content" button and type in this code: 123. This will drop 2 artifacts, each of which will spawn the appropriate vendor when equipped. Additionaly, we also included specialty skin vendors for adult skins, dress-mesh skins, and skirtless-mesh skins (unlock code: 12345). Note: a player must be using the dress mesh or skirtless mesh in order to properly display skins purchased from those vendors (found in AllSkins 0.8). Also, summoned vendors will not disappear until you exit the game, so we recommend summoning them in a city.
o Custom Item Support: items from some custom-game mods have been included in the patch to prevent their loss when accidentally loading a custom-game character into a different mod or into the regular game. If you bring these items into the original game, they will appear in your inventory as unusable parchments until returned to the originating mod.
Custom games currently supported:
Occult 1.0
Uber 1.1
StreetFighter BETA
AllSkins
If you have a mod with new items, and would like take advantage of the custom-item support in the next fanpatch, register on titanquest.net and go to the fan patch forums to request your mod's inclusion:
