Hi There
Well, both parts of Ultima7, as well as u8 and Ultima Underworld 1&2 seem to be downloadable at abandonia now.
Ahh, the Joy!!!
Im rather a reguar at Abandonia, and was dumbstruck und quite happy, to see the "Esa protected" button gone for good.
Well, after hopping around a bit and being happy, i quickly assembled the game files, the map, the manual as well as two walkthrougs -and was dissapointed!
Half a year befor, i had Ultima7 set up with Dosbox (Defend GUI). There was no problem then, I used the old complete edition CD as described here before, which I had borrowed from a friend.
And there I was, finally set to finisch Ultima 7 after about a 10-year-break *g*
Well, As soon as I had it running , computer go boom on an unrelated issue.
So no I tried again on the new machine, and all I get when trying to start the Abandonia-files is
"illegal command u7.exe" or "illegal command SI.exe" respectively.
hmmm
files crappy?
are they tested?
(And yes - EMS IS disabled, and yes, i could try Exult, but it seems rather complicatad, ad as told, I had this running on dosbox before... sadly, the frind now live abroad.)
