Looks like the Ultima 6 mod was made available earlier this month.

I am having hard time getting it run. I keep getting back to ultima 7 black. Even if I selected ultima 6 mode from the list it goes right to black gate. Any advise how I can fix this issue?

[KnightCaptainU7]

What was the issue and fix?

[xboxown]

Nothing, extract it like this.

Speaking of ultima 7...dupre died and I need to find his body. Excuse me while I hunt for his body.

I LOVE ULTIMA 7 ENGINE SO MUCH!!! BEST GAME ENGINE ON PLANET EARTH!

[KnightCaptainU7]

Yea, I don't know why it didn't come out as a Mod vs. a Patch.
Exult is faithful to the originals, and losing the corpse can happen there.

Hi,

thank you for this great mod. Unluckily i did run into a bug just when exiting LBs castle. The group is running into "Finn" and the conversation restarts endlessy after using "bye". When i try to run away exult does a coredump. This are the last lines i can see in my terminal.

Anything i can do to help debugging this?

Well, the engine is so sweet, I have decided to make real editor for Ultima 7. I am building the engine from scratch, doing some improvement to the engine and when my engine is 100% complete, I will work from scratch a complete GUI editor that will be as friendly as RPG Maker. With this editor it will be all click and play even script just like RPG Maker and people can make their games from scratch...not needing ultima 7 data file. You make everything from scratch, with your own graphics, music, sound, story, plot, blah blah.

My intention is making an entire new game from scratch using the same style Ultima 7 with the improvement...such as you need to be close to an object to pick something up or talk to NPC unlike Ultima 7 where you can do it from far as if you have permanent telekinesis.

In the meantime, I am enjoying ultima 6 using ultima 7 it is like a third ultima 7 game released. I love concept of losing items, or having to find where you last dropped your item, or searching for your body etc. By the way, in Ultima 6, I am thinking I may have asked Dupre to leave party. If that is the case where would I go to ask him to join me again (in case, I asked him to leave)?

You may have to use the F2 cheat menu to find his location. I would check the local tavern first.

[xboxown]

If I press f2 where do i go from here?
assume he is dead, will it show me his body location?

[DominusExult]

Could you please keep on topic and not diverge a topic in several non related topics?

[KnightCaptainU7]

I've reached out to AgentOrangeMan to give a little feedback. Hopefully we'll see the codebase at some point.

anyone have an issue with crashing game after speaking to NPCs CHuckles and SHerry

[DominusExult]

There was a bug in Exult that Marzo fixed earlier today.
Tomorrow's snapshot should have it!

Are there any instructions on how to install this on MacOS? Mods go in Library > Application Support > Exult > blackgate > mods, right? I've got the Keyring mod in there and it shows up no problem, but moving the Ultima VI folder over does nothing.

I worked on the Ultima VI Project and would very much like to see how Exult was used to recreate the game!

[Dragon-Baroque]

I've got the Keyring mod in there and it shows up no problem, but moving the Ultima VI folder over does nothing.

Please take care that you also have to copy the Ultima6v1.1.cfg one folder up : from mods/Ultima6v1.1/ into mods/.
So that you get, for example, in the mods/ folder :

• Keyring/
• Keyring.cfg
• Ultima6v1.1/
• Ultima6v1.1.cfg
• ...

NB Also please notice that Ultima VII the Black Gate and all its mods should go into forgeofvirtue/ not into blackgate/ unless you own the original game without the Forge of Virtue on diskettes, and same with Serpent Isle into silverseed/ not into serpentisle/.
