![]() They're due to be available on Good Old Games soon, apparently. $5.99 for Ultima 1-3 and U4 for free (U4 is also offered for free elsewhere).

![]() I downloaded the player reference card from the extras and printed the pdf. Bad mistake.
The sides appeared in the middle of the paper and the lower right part was printed black (not shown with the viewer) at every page except a part of the hand which obviously was used for scanning. Considering how expensive ink is and how much was printed black I guess the ink wasted for printing this document was worth several € or $. I fell into this trap, no need to let others suffer too. |

![]() Why remove it, the PDF looks fine on my computer and since you don't need to print it to view it I see no reason what so ever to remove it. Someone might be able to help you sort out getting this printed out if you really want to rather then just viewing it on your screen.

It's not ok if using a file in a normal way causes noteworthy hidden costs. |

![]() Kmonster, please pause and consider a few things.
All content on Abandonia is provided by the users. We had no way of noticing this hidden flaw without actually attempting to print the document (which I doubt anyone bothered to check). Unfortunately, this document is required to play the game. We can't remove it without having a replacement that does not suffer from this issue.

![]() For those interested I changed the .pdf into .gif pictures to get rid of the hidden black parts, it's attached for those who want to print it out, maybe even the file on the main page could be replaced by this until there's a better pdf available.

![]() If you love Ultima IV, one of the best and most unique RPGs EVER, then you owe it to yourself to check out the new and improved Ultima IV: XU. It was redesigned and made for windows, and includes the old "mockingboard" sound upgrade from the Apple II's heyday (the tunes still rock). DL it a few years ago, figured I'd share the find with anyone looking for the game here (wouldbe a nice version addition to abandonia
here's the website: http://xu4.sourceforge.net/ ENJOY |
