Re: This may sound a bit lazy but...

Lucky for you i'm an inventive individual. Just for you I implimented this feature... but I also tried out this experimental time machine i've been working on, so it turns out I added the feature in a few months ago, JUST FOR YOU. Aren't you the lucky one. :-) Anyway, enough of that. All you need to...

Re: Question about the "lost" actual source code of ultima7

Exult is too close to being finished for the source to be much us for us. It would though allow us to just work out the few things that we don't yet quite understand. Porting the code, if we had it, is extremely unlikely. It would just be too hard.

Re: Hidden stuff in U7SI usecode

The coversations are about the things the Banes did. It's pretty easy to find out what the roof pieces are. Exult will tell you (in stdout) what sort of item an object is if you click on it. I would guess they have to be IREGs. Exult attempts to replicate the 4 region rule. We can't be sure if it wo...

Re: U7 engine internals - shape kinds and such

1) That's pretty much how things works. Different shapes are used to define a dungeon roof, these are the mountain shapes. There doesn't seem to be anything that differentiates between a dungeon roof and a normal roof except the shape number. So, it's in the EXE file, not a data file. With the actua...

Re: The original plot of SI

I see that Dupre's role hasn't been mention yet.

Anyway, as known Dupre become the Bane of Wantonness and takes over monitor. From what I know of the original plot he turns all of the Monitorians into the animal that they are. After the Bane is 'killed' they all return back to normal again.
