Exult Forum

I've always wanted to make one of those pirate-caves my hideout but the pirate respawning prevents this. Any way to trick the game into making the pirates (or any enemies) no longer respawn? I've tried putting their corpse's in chests etc but no luck.

Bear in mind I am aware of hacks/editors but is there any non-hack way to do this?

You'd have to delete the monster eggs that spawn the pirates. (Press 'e' to show eggs, and then press 'ctrl-d' while the mouse is over a monster egg.)

Not sure if you'd consider this a "hack".

seeing as its built into exult, that wouldn't be considered a hack would it?

Oh, and if you're interested, there are eggs that respawn spidersilk, ginseng, nightshade, and gold nuggets in BG.

Nightshade is found east of the spider nest where all the mushrooms are.

Spidersilk is found in the spider nest (area where spiders spawn and there's cobwebs everywhere)

Ginseng is found in the southwest corner (or near there) of the peninsula N.W. of Spiritwood. I'll go use a sextant and get the coordinates in a little while.

Gold nuggets respawn under some debris in (I think) the cavern north of Minoc.

It's not a hack, it's just a cheat. But in this case, I'd recommend it without feeling guilty because of the circumstances. Hehehe, it's not like nobody has played the original Ultima and added random people to your party with the NPC tool. Hehehe...

Okay let's see..

Dammit, where is it?!

NNNOOOOOOO, I can't find it!!! I know it's here somewhere!!!

Ah, here it is.
15 north, 17 west.

15N 17W?

Nothing there except a path through the mountains north of britain.

Don't forget the spawning ash that is inbetween the unicorn cave and the destard entrance along that "west side" of the mountain.
