Exult Forum

Hi all

I just wanted to say thank you so much for this software.

I purchased Ultima VII, the Complete CD version, off eBay (as well as Wing Commander 3 and 4) because I loved these games back in the day. Being almost 40 years old now, playing Ultima VII has just been such a wonderful thing - it's awesome I was concered about getting the game to run, and stumbled across this page, and it works perfectly on my work laptop with Exult Yes there are new, wondrous games out there with amazing graphics - but nothing comes close to this game for storyline, depth and fun (except maybe the old Bards Tales and Forgotten Realms 5.25" games, lol).

Anyway - please.. accept my thanks and if there's anything I can do to assist let me know.

Dear Federal Reserve Bank of Boston,

One of your employees ( Jeff J ), is playing games all day at work.

SO DON'T BOTHER HIM.

Regards, MV.

Thanks! Hope you also can get the Wing-Commander games going, perhaps in DOSBOX. I may give that a try sometime.

So... don't suppose you could tell us where interest-rates are going?

I want to add my thanks,too.I have owned Ultima 7,plus the addons,plus Serpent Isle,since they first came out.I have KEPT my 486/266 pc because l thought l`d never be able to play these any other way.Well,loaded the games,added your program,and WOW-the Black Gate is playing BETTER than ever it did,and the music and sfx are fantastic.This is on a Celeron 700 with a 3dfx 5500 3d card.So get lost Lara Croft,l`m going adventuring with my hero of olden times again,the Avatar.Thank-you from the bottom of my heart.Fantastic,marvelous program.Exultations!

i jus came back from a year long deployment. i got that craving to play Ultima 7 and knew the existence of Exult.

after getting a copy from ebay, i am delighted to be playing it again...and on my laptop too. i remember Ultima Exodus from NES when i was like 8 years old. played that, quest of the avatar on NES, U6, underworld games, didnt like Pagan and knew better than to even attempt U9.

i might try the Underworld games again too. how is DOSBox?

both underworlds are fully playable with Dosbox. Music and all.

Artaxerxes

and with a Roland MT-32 you get perfect music and sfx with Dosbox, too. Only recently I aquired a MT-32 and for the first time could play the Underworlds with perfect SFX and music.

I've been after an MT-32 for so long...... Is it really that great? How does it compare to the midi of an awe64 gold? (Which I do have).

it's not compareable. To have it behave close you'd need a soundfont similar to the MT-32 but those are to big for the AWE64 and it'd still not be the same, especially regarding sfx.

and most games that use the MT-32 send system-exclusive messages to set parameters, modify the sounds and stuff. An AWE64 doesn't support those.

Ok, thanks. The elusive search continues for a mt-32.......

>both underworlds are fully playable with Dosbox. Music and all.

Holy crap! I have to try this out, like right now. I never finished Laberynth of Worlds.

Okay, well, I tried it...., and... it works. )

So much for going to bed early.

Ok, thanks. The elusive search continues for a mt-32.......

Just use EBay
