Exult Forum

If you want to go dragon hunting it's good :) I used to very regulary go to Destard and make my fortune off the 4-8 gemstones that dragons have on their bodies, not to mention the good experience. I remember thoses days... back in the old Ultima7. Oh btw, did anyone make their own hourse saughta thi...

OKay, I shall do this.

Does no one know the solution?

oh well, I might as well post a few times so ppl will think this topic is popular and maybe view it and maybe tell me the freaken answer. The things you have to do these days....

Artaxerxes, You're right about WineX complaing and well... It seems to be very pick with the config file. I obtained a config file off the original wine source in documentation/samples/config That seemed to work more often than the transgaming default. I think the primary interest with WineX seems t...

I know you've probably heard this more than 5 times but the party arrangement still isn't right. There are only two things wrong with it though and that's pretty good considering the way it used it be. These things are...... - Party members skip in front of the avatar or stand right beside him, ulti...

I got this error while running the latest CVS of Exult. (btw, im running Slackware 8.1, Geforce 2 GTS and im using the latest video card drivers and newest SDL libs) Here are the last 8 lines from the terminal: ---------------------------------------------------- 'Daniel' is looking for a foe 'Danie...

Try WineX cause that seems to run games alot nicer and you DONT need to subscribe like everyone thinks. That's just a plain myth. The subscription is only if you want pre-compiled packages. Get the latest CVS by typing this in the shell: cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.winex.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/wi...

OKAY HERE IT IS. To get exult to compile & install nicely under linux (with defaults) type this in the source path. sh autogen.sh (makes it so you can configure) ./configure (checks libs & paths and whatnot) (to try out the experimental opengl do ./configure --enable-opengl) make (compiles e...

k thanks, I was thinking more of ~/.exult/music
no wonder it didn't work.

Here are some suggestions I feel would improve exult: * Create a paperdoll graphic for the shotgun (mainly for consistency) * Make it so stealing includes items that are on display, not just items that are in containers * Make it so party members shun the Avatar for stealing, just like in the origin...

yah good ideas there DrCode, nice to know someone is working on the combat

casting recall on a magic carpet is bad!

I've lost about two magic carpets that way

Well I've just tried it on exult 1.1 and I can't get the rings either, but the caltdrops are not invisable and can be moved. Some of them are hidden behind the cave's perspective.

The thrill of stealing was what made Ultima 7 (in my opinion) one of the best games. You'd do all saughts of crazy stuff just steal and not get your party members angry (ie: putting the stolen goods in Iolo's backpack). Even going around brittania at night and looking through peoples clothes and wak...

ahh crap, here's what I meant to say..

"I mean't *no* disrespect"

I meant disrespect by the way, the exult team is doing a great job.
and dito to what Dino the Dark Dragon said

Sure Exult is great and all the rest (im not going to crap heaps cause I'm sure you earn enough praise), but the game is not challenging anymore. Here are three things that I've noticed that arn't like the original: * If you wish you flee from battle you need only turn off combat mode and you are su...

I am now using digital conversion and it's working quite well. But it'd be really nice if there were a volume control for it because when I turn it up to listen to it, my game sounds are incredibably loud. And also, how do I get OpenGL to run? when I switch to it says in the console 'Open GL not sup...

Im doing this now.... thanks SBX I totally forgot about the ogg implementation for 1.1.

Well that's just confirmed, voices work fine. now that paperdolls and sound is out of the way, I must discover how listen to music. I've downloaded smurf and compiled it, so I'm gonna have a little tinker with an awesome soundfont I was using back in the old windows xp days.

hehe, thanks anyway I'm running the game with paperdolls and sound effects, just not music (not sure about voices). You've helped me heaps already.

Ahh... I see.
Well I think I did install timidity after exult, in anycase I am using the 1.1 CVS snapshot so what you just said about 1.1 not needing timidity, I will now uninstall it. btw, ALSA is installed should exult pick these changes up?

compile exult with timidity? :/
I managed to get sound effects to work by the jmsfk.flx and jmsisfx.flx.
I have a sound blaster live and the FAQ said that I need the ALSA drivers to get it running. Well I have ALSA and all it's components installed (despite vauge and crap documentation). Now what?

nah I probably forgot that I read it.

Well now that everything else is in working order, I want to try and get the sound to work. I have compiled Timidity and I'm stuck as to what I should do now. Perhaps if has something to do with /etc/rc.d/rc.modules ?

Umm... now I feel like an even bigger fool. I saved the file putting the paths for each game, and now the paperdolls work.

Thanks wjp

Oh yeh and one more problem... This was set in my config file by default and yet it still does not work.


yes

I ask myself, why are the answers so obvious? heh, I'm such a newbie

Hey there, I have recently download the latest version of the 1.1 CVS source for Exult and I compiled it with no worries (after I downloaded all the appropiate libraries) and I was wondering how I can get the paperdolls function to work (I'll try sound later) Here's what I did in the unzipped folder...
