Exult Forum

We aren´t likely to loose any code and as it looks SF is also not going away soon. To the contrary they are even employing people and about to translate their docs to aother languages. And if all fails for some reason you are always likely to find Exult via google. Also our irc log is independent of...

In U9 you find a belt right at the beginning of the game.
that belt has 12 slots in which you can put an item and use it by pressing F1-F12. You can put spells there as well. Made things a lot easier.

phew, I think this has been posted at least twice now.Gets a bit boring now

What I never got was:
>She says that Batlin will be very, very angry when she tells him of this.
We can't allow that, so we kill her. <
Who the... is she?

yeah, and for getting free gold there is already a nice cheat in exult so maybe this is more worht being fixed than being exploitable

(nothing wrong with cheating, though, I´m always the first to cheat

)

yep!

for further questions oon what to do plotwise see the newly added links to the FAQ that point to some walkthroughs and hints on the game.

hm, I had this problem once but that bug was fixed. It may have returned though.
What you need though is all your companions. One of them should go missing on the way from Pothos to the docks.

Oh, you can by the way download the tools at our download section. These are Win32 binaries so if you run anything else you have to compile it yourself.

Or, as you are cheating anyway, just Hackmove the Avatar onto the roof

wow, looks very nice!

no there wasn´t. Only the i key that brings up the inventory

RMajere: could it be that you are confusing the hoe of destruction with the scythe of death? You find one in the Test of Love in the FoV Add-on along with a couple of glass swords.
But IIRC you find another hoe in a cheat room.

Sorry to say, but you are screwed becuase of your sound card. The Turtle Beach Montego II Quadzilla is a Vortex chip based card. Exult is triggering a bug in the drivers when run in Win9x. It´s okay in W2k (and presumably in XP but that is not confirmed). You might want to try finding a newer driver...

but how will you be able to use ANY spell in combat if the world doesn´t stand still? I choose to look at it this way: Spellbooks are powerfull magical artefacts, so opening one has the instant magic effect of worldstandstill until the magician has chosen the right spell. Of course there is one issu...

ahh, maybe we can get down to the cause of the savegame corruptions now. So, are you sure it happens after you destroyed the 2nd Generator? Meaning, can you cheat just before it and teleport to an NPC that you know for sure turns into Gaye and make sure this NPC is still the one he´s supposed to be?...

Lord Rat: That is stated in the documentation (for quite some time now) but I grant you that it is not that clear that you won´t hear any sfx without these files. And it actually doesn´t matter where you put the sound files as long as you set the proper paths to them in the exult.cfg.

don´t worry, I´m not that picky today, as it was a recent addition to it (yesterday)

Also take a look at some links I put in the FAQ for those kind of questions. http://exult.info/faq.php#N187
I´m pretty sure one of those links lists that location as well.

It´s at Loch Lake beach to the northwest in a body of a green trout.
It says body instead of trout, btw. hidden under the branches of some
plant and some green garbage. the Hex-Coordinates are 0588,0455,00 (the Hex coordinates you can see when you press F2).

actually I´m not one of the coders, so working on the FAQ doesn´t influence the progress of Exult.
But people asking for a warez copy of Ultima7 really are annoying.

Updated again.
Please read about the changes on top of them and read the changed stuff. Might be important to you!

ah, okay, so, just bad luck, I guess.

Sven just to make sure about Alagner: You have to give the notebook to the wisps before Alagner gets killed. Otherwise the big red muppet doesn´t know that Alagner knows and therefore has no reason to kill him.

Jade: Send that savegame you found to me, please.

oh and about your stdout.txt and stderr.txt: We only need the first few lines (about 40 of the stdout.txt and some of the stderr.txt), and the last few lines.

Even more important: get the latest drivers for your soundcard, install them and try Exult again.

Hmm, I remember handling ships and carriages as difficult in the original. Just as it is with Exult

Actually Tim, I would like to hear it as well. I´ve got the Dragon Edition which was only availlable in English I think. So the only Ultima I own in German is U8

and to clarify a bit, that teleporter is normally only accessible when you are standing on a crate or sth like that. It´s actually an "Easter Egg" which bring you to the so called cheatrooms and such.

Ok, you are right it´s only possible with U7dpmi but that comes with u7run

"Laufwerk" - drive
"Laufzeit" - runtime

Mirek: well stated!

nope,
"runtime error 53 - file not found!

Tenchi: some more issue with your frontend. Browsing for the file you want to extract is limited to *.vga and *.flx files. At least an option for *.* would be nice. Extracting produces a "Laufzeitfehler 53 - Datei nicht gefunden" When I choose my sound flex and selected another dir to extr...

warning: I think you should wait a little bit before playing BG in Exult (as a first timer anyway) as there might still be a bug that could force you to restart your current game and that would be a major spoiler for a first time U7 gamer. Tristan: Well, you CAN play U7 with u7run in the Windows NT ...

zhat is noot trew! Seriously. It always depensd on who you are listening to. If you only hear German in bad American Movies it tends to sound like you describe (especially with movies that feature Hitler-like voice acting). It´s probably the same if you let non-Americans watch "Fargo" and ...

Suraimu: hehehe
banning the whole .at range - that´s a classic one

Now that this is out of the way can you post links to that other stuff you have as png on your website (that comic that you mentioned before our board went down)?

could be that you have to try sitting down more than once (clicking on the sail).

I did cheat a lot :-) but that´s because I´m a cheater and not becuase it was necessary. Mostly that is. Some bugs that I reported and got fixed eventually forced me to cheat a bit but those were mostly teleport cheats. All of those bugs I reported have been fixed so you should be able to finish SI ...

Yeah, seems my host is one of the ones troublemakers are from

My host is teleweb.at but goes through chello.at.
Well, I would certainly like to see those pictures you already put up here before as well (that shot at a comic you were talking about)...

hmm, the first thing that comes to mind is reading the documentation and the FAQ. Right? Ihave it perfectly working with WinME and a SB Live! so you better do some reading.

http://sl1me.lfx.org/msg/apes.png that´s the url I get in IE6 and Opera and it doesn´t work for me. grrr.

strangely I am never able to see any picture that suraimu puts here. And when i copy paste the location of the picture it says that that file is not there. What do I do wrong (save for usinf a MS product)?

the latter

And you messed up sending the savegame

You can send this savegame to me. Zip it up please. Could be that this was the problem that sourceforge didn´t take the savegame. And log in to sf before submitting a bug. This way you will get notifications on what happens to the bug.

Hm, okay, I just noticed that you found the tracker on your own. but still please read the FAQ on it. You need to zip the savegames as the file uncompressed is too big. And also please zip and don´t use any other compression method (like rar, ace, or cab) as it is much easier to unzip than any other...

toad`sMoke:
we have a bug tracker at sourcefirge.net which is our favourite place for all bugs. Please submit your bugs to it. Also make it one bug per subject in the tracker. Please see the FAQ on how to properly submit a bug (http://exult.info/faq.php#N281).

Suraimu: I think wjp just wanted to point out to poeple that reading the FAQ might be a good idea before posting.
And also that you can allready use the source of Exult and build in multiplayer support no matter how stable we view Exult.

Warren Spector would be the man to interview then!

I heard about those Ratmen as well and I believe that it was mentioned along with some plot involving the Nagas in SI (the women that are half snake). Andy: the entire scripting of the plot... well the source code of the Ultima7 are supposed to be lost and many Ultima fans tried to get a hold of it ...

hehe, that´s my job to tell people to RTFM

Should listen to my own advice sometimes it seems.
Ok, now I trully tested it and yes, it looks nice and should help people with problems running expack from the command line.

I updated the Documentation and the FAQ this night. Enjoy (and please, any comment, critique is welcome).
