(v3.0 onward) Replace it with a fresh copy of Ultima 3. Let the installer detect and upgrade you to the latest version. You can always get the latest code snapshot, in addition to several different U7 tools, from the Exult website. The PC version of Ultima 3 must already be installed on your hard drive. Exult is a project to create an Ultima 7 game engine that runs on modern operating systems, capable of using the data and graphics files that come with the game. With CGA Composite, the alternating magenta-and-black pixels of the water tiles appear as a smooth, deep blue. But they were never really intended to be viewed that way. In fact, that was my primary motivation for starting this project 20ish years ago. But, being a DOS game with a very non-standard memory manager, it is difficult to run it on the latest computers. The CGA modes of Ultima 2 & 3 are pretty horrible to look at.
SoftwareByPaul's Ultima III is a modern update of the original fantasy role playing adventure classic. Paul's version is shareware, but a limited demo is freely available in which you can't buy food, get to Ambrosia, or find Exotic weapons and armor. Ultima 7, an RPG from the early 1990's, still has a huge following. Unlike the original, supports a top-down view of dungeons. The engine requires the SDL graphics library.
Currently, Exult has released version 1.2, and is focusing on enhancements for future mod development in version 1.4. The developers have added other enhancements along the way: status bars for the party, paperdolls in BG, wide-angle overhead views, and digital sound effects. This release includes many new features and fixes, the foremost being ability to select between four different video modes. Payment/Insurance Accepted:Please contact.
