One year after Anstoss 4, an error-corrected and extended version of Anstoss 4 was published with Anstoss 4 Edition 03/04. The text and 3D modes have been completely revised and made clearer and more user-friendly. Buyers of the previous version were offered an inexpensive exchange for the new edition. This edition was considered a kind of compensation for the fans; shortly before Christmas 2003, Ascaron released a free fan patch that integrated some of the features requested by fans into the game.
