U7:BG Copy protect quiz

Post by EbeneezerSquid »

Alright, I own the Ultima Collection and I have for years. But I don't have the cloth map that originally came with the game (or paper, I think it was paper for the collection - but I had owned it on disk way back when it first came out).
Now, I Hackmoved my way out of the first town, but that is a bad thing to start. Once you start doing things like that, it is very tempting to keep going.
So does anyone have the correct answers to the mayors quiz?

Didn't the UC have the answers somewhere on the CD?

If not, they should be on Origin's site (or ftp?) somewhere.

The UC manual comes with all the answers to the Questions. They are on Page 23.

It isn't a good idea to ask for/post the answers to these questions here. I did that once... anyhow they can be found on the web.

P.S. Don't e-mail Origin. They will poke you with a stick then try to extort you. Trying to get them to send you another "is like being nibbled to death by ducks." Yes, I was in the same position too, I had both UC AND the original and lost both of them, but they asked for $5. This just shows you how corporate EA is.

I wouldn't expect them to mail a map or anything for free. $5 isn't that bad.

Did I mention how corporate EA is?

The answers can be found on the OFFICIAL Ultima Online site, hosted by Origin.. See http://www.uo.com/archive/ultima7/coord.html

This was presumably done because numbers on the cloth map are almost
impossible to read (and indeed some editions had a separate lat-long grid
printed on regular paper)

For those of you who might think this is in some way illegal, please read http://www.uo.com/archive/whatis.html

The Ultima Archive also hosts other interesting stuff. See http://www.uo.com/archive

There is a map in the help file on the the Ultima Collection CD /docs/ultima7.hlp. In windows you can zoom in on the map, press the print screen key, open windows Paint, and paste the screen image there. Hope this helps.
