Gotcha!

You had best not do that, Avatar! I'll join the bandwagon in saying that it does indeed happen as well in the DOS version, as intended. Imagine stealing something, the guards getting called and the Avatar blasting off like the Roadrunner, with his dollar-sign eyes and while screaming: Crime does paa...

Gotcha!

Well I'll be. I never knew they were part snake, even though I knew they were created by Chaos. A fusion of Adder and Man I read.

I've said nothing then, please carry on!

Gotcha!

Yeah, if you're going to give enemies serpent scale drops, then definitely use nagas or even regular snakes. In my opinion it wouldn't make sense for wildmen to drop them. @Paulon: I don't think any enemy is random, since they all pop out of pre-placed spawners. I can't recall an instance where a mo...

Gotcha!

I remember the same thing as WJH.

Gotcha!

- Shrine of Tolerance - Stefano provides it after the Death Knight is slain?

I think Stefano gives it right away, but that wouldn't make a difference I guess.
From what I can tell you have the right order.

Gotcha!

It's unbelievable how low some people can go for a quick buck.
That cretin is a waste of oxygen.

Gotcha!

I read a lot of continuity/plot hole issues; I wouldn't call those bugs. Maybe separate them from the actual bugs? Issues with greater resolutions, I feel that's something players would just have to accept. It's an old game, I imagine it'd be a lot of work recreating parts of the world to hide these...

Gotcha!

Thanks, KC.

I wonder why the Exult team didn't include this flag with the rest of the regular flags (e.g. hid it away). It's quite an important one and was there in the vanilla game.

Gotcha!

@KC: I'd love to know where you're seeing that 'dead' flag in Exult. I checked it, but it's not there.

Gotcha!

That's a good question. In the vanilla games you could cheat by going to the cheat menu (F2), pressing N, choosing 33 (which is Torrissio), pressing N again and make him alive by setting "Is Dead" or something like that to N(o). But Exult does not seem to have this last option. Hopefully s...

Gotcha!

Do Brunt and Deadeye have combat skills?
Perhaps it has to do with them transforming into cyclopses when they fight you, possibly changing their stats?

Gotcha!

Thank you again for this, DrCode.

Gotcha!

I wouldn't mind seeing it capped at 8. Fun to have a few extra automatons around. Or to avoid having to make party members leave when taking along those two people up north who instantly leave anyway.
But if it's needed... meh, not really I guess.

Gotcha!

Good to know this is still getting worked on! Nice.

(How does that double-headed cow poop?)

Gotcha!

Charmed, interesting. I don't recall an instance where one of my party members was fighting against me. Lucky I guess.
Thanks for the full list.

Gotcha!

Nice going!

Gotcha!

The black dot means the person is cursed.
There's one for sleep, I think it's an icon consisting of some z's.
There's also one for paralyzation, was it an icon of a man with a glow around him? Can't remember what the icon exactly looked like.
Other than the poison one I can't think of anything else.

Gotcha!

Whoever made that blockade must have super human strength. Not even a 30-strength Avatar can move them!

I'm guessing Master Ducio, since he should have plenty of muscles from all that smithing. (Or has he become weak thanks to his student and automatons doing all the work?)

Gotcha!

I share the same memory. Iolo was especially good at defeating his opponents, since he was a lot better at keeping a distance than Shamino and Dupré.
I still wonder why. It's like it was tied to intelligence?

Gotcha!

@Francois424: I feel the same. Of the countless times I've played through the game, every time I arrive at the Wall of Lights I feel kind of sad, knowing the rest of the game will be far less entertaining. Sure, there are still plenty of nice places to visit, but knowing 90% of the island's inhabita...

Gotcha!

Nice teasers!

Gotcha!

21) I don't recall which house it resides in, but it's there. Surely you have found it before? 22) You confuse me. Yelinda has it of course. Or are you talking about another treasure room? 23) Delin's basement. Other than that, nope. 24) It's bathed in blood once you get there! No, seriously, probab...

Gotcha!

Oh, I hate those restaurants, where they just keep serving you course after course when you're not even finished with your current course. It's like they want you to hurry up, pay up and scram.
Et tu, Britannia?

Silliness aside, I'm so happy with you guys. Thank you.

Gotcha!

Odd. Well, you can always add items. The item code for Dupre's ashes should be 914.
You can open the shape browser, go to this item and press insert in-game to create it at the mouse cursor if I'm not mistaken.

Gotcha!

Hmm. I know the Monitorian pike men are all in green, but personally I'd prefer Caladin's original colours, for nostalgia's sake. :) One of the things I love most about the Ultima 7 games is the insane amount of caves, dungeons and other locations to explore. I'd love to see more of those. Serpent I...

Gotcha!

@Knight Captain, Dominus: You're the experts.

Whichever way it's going to be done, I am already so happy it's being looked into.
Thanks to all involved.

Gotcha!

Thanks for trying to tackle this, DrCode. :) About the plates usage, if it were me I'd go for one type of plate per establishment. Brown/Wooden plates for less classy places, White/Porcelain plates for fancy taverns and Gold plates for LB/Filbercio. Britain: Big wealthy city; white plates Britain, L...

Gotcha!

"You had best not do that, Avatar!"

I have no idea. Can you leave your companions behind and ask them to return later? Or are they actually still in your party? (Which would be weird.)

Gotcha!

I think LB explained this as well in an interview with this Spoony guy from thespoonyexperiment.com.

Fun stuff.

Gotcha!

I hope someone can; looking forward to the release.

I wish I could help, but I'm as artistic as a crumpled paper bag.

Gotcha!

Like KC said, your strength can't exceed 30 (with the exception of LB giving you a strength of 60 in The Black Gate). The belt and the gauntlets simply bring your stats up to 30 if they are not already there. It's still a useful item, since I don't think you can legitimately train yourself nor your ...

Gotcha!

As am I. For over a decade I thought I knew everything about these games, but people just keep on going giving new interesting information.

Gotcha!

Lord British should give you one; the avatar didn't bring his own orb with him for some reason.
I doubt you can blame the game for this, items don't just go missing on their own.

If you had one and misplaced it, then basically what Knight Captain said.

Gotcha!

@Donna Free: I already posted where the save games are stored when you first asked for it. I'm getting the feeling it is indeed permission related. Did you or someone else play around with file/folder permissions on that pc? If I were you I'd find someone who knows what he/she's doing and have him/h...

Gotcha!

Big chance that the banquet will play out fine next time. I had some weird things in it as well, but not reproducible.
One time Spektor was lying dead on the ground after the banquet. No idea what caused it. Must have been some party!

Gotcha!

A bit sloppy of the devs. It would have been easily avoided using a slightly different looking empty bottle, which would not be used up when used because, well, it's empty.

Gotcha!

I guess Cantra will be on steroids too. After Balance is restored, Shamino and Iolo should introduce her to Steroid Spark.

Gotcha!

I think you have cheated somehow, since I'm pretty sure Fedabiblio kicks you to Oink! land after two tries.

Gotcha!

The Avatar should cut his/her toenails more often, apparently.

Gotcha!

Right you are! There's not a skull on those bones, but they give bullets anyway. I never knew.
Definitely the best spot to farm bullets.

Gotcha!

"You are 100% right. But I believe it's a 1-shot deal. One shot per skeleton, which you have usually one of per swamp, based on my own exploring." Nope, not a one-shot deal. You can double-click the dragon's skull, get the bullets, move away far enough from the skull, move back, double-cli...

Gotcha!

I agree with you, but I have the feeling that might be illegal, even though the answers to the questions are posted all over the internet.

Gotcha!

Oh, I didn't realize there were different manuals. Yeah, I have the Ultima Collection and the GoG one. GoG has a separate pdf with the copy protection answers and also says 6.

Gotcha!

The problem with adding it back in with the correct answer is that almost everyone will still choose 6, since that's what they remember and it's what the manual tells them.

So I'd expect a lot of unnecessary oinkage.

Gotcha!

Hey, that's not my problem anymore. They were dead at some point: Who could expect everyone to suddenly be alive again?
No, no, I'm keeping my stuff. It's all MINE!

Gotcha!

It's in your user profile, from there look in \AppData\Local\Exult.
Note: AppData is a hidden folder.

Gotcha!

I remember never being able to double-click him when standing on the wall (greeted by a cross and a beep), but I could be wrong. My memory is not what it used to be. x_x

Gotcha!

Smith the horse is normally not reachable in the Dream Realms though, unless I missed something. So that could have been the reason why they never bothered with making a portrait.
If you play without cheating you don't have access to Unlock Magic in the Dream Realm.

Gotcha!

Good luck. If you find anything, please do share. I bet I'm not the only curious person who likes to know what's going on.

Gotcha!

@Knight Captain: If that were the case though then Batlin succeeded rather than failed and I imagine the Guardian would not mention the word 'fail' but rather tell us that Batlin has lost his usefulness.
