Cool! I only have Serpents Isle (and was gonna post that next). I definitely think the others should go in too! This is considered the best Ultima engine by most people and that's probably why there are 4 games written using it.

There are only two games written for it, the others are expansion packs for their respective games. This download includes Forge of Virtue; if it did not, there would be no earthquake at the beginning of the game. I have not yet checked the Serpend Isle file, and would not know how to tell.

Just for a bit of self-promotion...

I have written a walkthrough for U7 The Black Gate with the forge of virtue. I wrote it as complete as I could, including NPC speech in a reduced manner. It is -very- boring to read in the beginning, but as I developed my writing, it should become better. I tried to not include any spoilers, except those necessary to continue. It can be found at Bootstrike, just go to U7 and walkthroughts. Ganesh was really kind of hosting my walkthrough. There are images included.

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.)

Without knowing what you have exactly done and what specifically is the problem, we cannot help you.
Until you post more detailed information about your problem, I can only refer you to this FAQ.

Please post a more detailed description of your problem including any and all error messages you encountered.

Also describe where exactly did you unpack the games and what commands have you entered in DosBox (exact syntax, please; it's important).

If you have made any modifications to your DosBox.conf, please post a copy of its contents.

Actually, my problem is with installing Ultima 7 not playing it. I dont have DosBox because I plan on using Exult. When I click on the install icon this is what happens....
Changing the Configuration for Ultima VII - The Black Gate
(If you wish to re-install the entire game please run INSTALL from your original distribution diskettes.)
Press any key to continue or ESCape to abort...

I then press any key...ENTER

Please choose sound card, I choose no sound card.
If this is correct type y
I type "Y"

Something has put your computer in protected mode Ultima VII- The Black Gate cannot run in this mode demove (that is not a typo it says demove) the offending software and put your system in real mo (again typo) to play the game.

Press any key to continue, ESC to cancel...

Again ENTER

Make a bootable disk?
N

It then tells me my computers configuration and all the stats check ok (they even say ok)
Press any key to continue...

I press ENTER and the screen disappears.
I am never asked where I want to install it. So I dont even know if it installed.

This means that the game is already "installed". What the Install program now does is only changing the sound hardware.
