Exult Forum

Keep it civil and nice please. No need to insult people.

Note we were never planning on making a minimap in Pentagram. It just happened to be something that I made. I created a diagnostic gump called the FastAreaVisGump that sort of had the feelings of a minimap, so with a bit of brainstorming I came up with a way of 'cheeply' implementing a real minimap....

Just posting the screenshot here so people can see http://pentagram.sourceforge.net/images/screenshots/minimap.png Now, there isn't really anything stopping me from doing something similar in Exult. The world in U7 is much bigger than each map in U8, so it is more difficult. That is really just it t...

The left-right frames are the up-down frames with the x and y axis swapped.

Down becomes right, and up becomes left.

I would if i had a Pocket PC to test and debug on. Last time i made a build, it wouldn't even start up.

I will be the first to say that Java is slow, but it's not 'that' slow anymore. But what it comes down to is Exult has like 100,000 lines of C++ code. It would take an extremely long time to convert it all over to Java. Let alone the fact that Exult does things that will not be friendly at all to Ja...

The spawning of the mandrake root is a timer (6 hours?) that starts from when you first talk to the monk about it.

Exult is really poor with memory management. It does cache all the tiles, loads all the shapes when used and never evicts.

It is a feature in Exult that they stay

This shot is better

Are you running under 32 bit or 64 bit Windows?

Movement speed in combat was supposed to be determined by Dexerity

Hmm... I am going to say Epic Beyond is a copyright violation... I see no indications that Electronic Arts has licensed the graphics.

It's not about supporting EA. It's about not making us a target of their lawyers.

Another problem. Johnson will the cached out and deleted if he gets too far away from you. He's not supposed to live.

U8 actually wasn't very buggy at all.

Just had strange gameplay decisions.

zlib_libcmt.lib is just a recompiled version of zlib to use libcmt.lib runttime instead of msvcrt.lib

And that is implemented.

There is also another more severe 'drug' effect... but the Items used to do it are not in the game.

It does

No. It's Win32. All I can say is the download is corrupted

Delete and redownload. And don't use any download manager

What I would do. 1) Set 'follow camera' on the party member 2) Make sure each party member stops following the avatar 3) Route all the movement comands to the party member 4) Disable all executing 'use' usecode when in solo mode Of course eggs and traps and other things will probably still break a l...

Warren Spector left Origin before Crusader as far as I know

p.s. Crusaders used the Ultima 8 engine

If you don't answer the mayors questions your death will be permanent. If you do answer his questions Elizabeth and Abraham will save you when you die.

Colourless Dragon... if you didn't guess.

It looks awful first person because the textures sheer and they are just such low res

Hehe.

My opinion is crate stacking is not acceptable for gathering loot. And cheat rooms are also not allowed.

In SI there were 2 scrolls that you could only ever get 1 off. Those are Chill and Dispel Field.

Avatar the Britannian Tax Council has an important mission for you. You are to go around Britannia and collect up all the lost gold and return it.

I think this once and for all proves that Ultima 7 actually IS a 3d game

Sam's remapping algorithm, based on the bounding boxes of exult 2d shapes, is one of the smartest things ever conceived

Yes well, what can I say... I'm a genius for suggesting he do things that way... Hehe...

It's great work what Sam has done no doubt about it.

-Colourless Dragon

If you are meaning in SI, there is only 1 dispel field scroll in the entire game. So, if you 'lost' it, you will need to restart/reload/cheat

Oh, I forgot. Their schedules change after you destroy the generator.

Black Gate did not support changing schedule mid game.

Aurora's conversation system is no where near as complex as Ultimas.

Modding an xbox is not illegal. It will be a license violation however.

If you are going to use Linux on an Xbox you should be able to compile exult for the xbox as if it was just any old linux installation. Porting Exult isn't really a problem, as exult is very portable, usually the problem is with SDL. A native XBE version of Exult is NEVER going to appear on this pag...

Shuttup.

Your first and final warning.

SB-X, you can already do that.

A consideration is to actually make the object sorting code more like pentagrams which would make something like this easier.

It annoys me everytime it is brought up. I will notify everyone when things change. I haven't forgotten about it.

What we also need to do is open the files in unbuffered mode so every byte is written to the disk as soon as we want it to be.

Assassin... i like

I couldn't care less that you've translated it. No linking to sites where you can download the games! NO EXCEPTIONS! As far as morality and eithics go in regards to the so called abanondwear aka a nicer word to use other than piracy of old games/programs. It's wrong. Plain and simple. -Colourless Dr...

Don't bother working against Exult at the moment...

Yes yes... and... shh.. don't tell anyone this.... i plan on integrating MT32-EMU into Exult....

Doing that is actually quite difficult. You start needing to implement flood filling algorithms... not too fun. In most games that do that sort of thing they only have roofs that are only at a single level. Ultima can have roofs at multiple hights that makes the problem much more difficult. I'm not ...
