Dino's 8th Anniversary

27th July 2010 by Dino

Dino's Ultima Page turned 8 years old today!

U6P developing patch against plot stopper

18th July 2010 by Dino

The Ultima 6 Project has announced that there is a bug in their 1.0 release that can prevent players from finishing the game. They are currently working on a patch to fix this problem, and the patch will be compatible with 1.0 savegames. This news has also been echoed at Project Britannia.

More news from Aiera:

• Aiera is getting a lot of traffic from RPGWatch, which (if I remember correctly) is the successor to the old RPGDot (that had a section called UltimaDot dedicated to Ultima). RPGDot editors left after the site was taken over by Jolt, and formed RPGWatch.
• Ultima IX Power Tools have been restored.
• Ultima 9 Patches have been restored.
• The Ultima 9 Combined Patch has been restored.

Codex update

12th July 2010 by Dino

Tribun Dragon sent me an email with another of his regular progress reports about the Codex of Editable Wisdom. Here's what he had to say about recent activity at what has become the biggest Ultima Wiki on the web:

In the last months, we've been very busy at the Codex to fill all the still existing gaps. We can proudly announce that by now only small gaps remain, mainly with the NPCs of Ultima IV and Martian Dreams. Most of it is now work concerned with improving the formatting the format of the articles and adding additional information.

• The NPC-Section for Ultima V is now complete, all NPCs have an article. Only some vendors are missing, but they don't have any dialogue anyway.
• All the cities and towns of Britannia now have maps for Ultima VI, VII and IX.
• The Weapons and Equipment pages now also have information about generic weapons (like swords) and various tools that can be mis-used as weapons.
• There now is a section about Eodon Magic.
• The Combat Trainers now have a complete listing of what stats they advance.
• The Section about Books is greatly enlarged. Numerous non-Origin cluebooks are added, some other cluebook articles (especially Ultima VII) have more information now.
• The Ultima Online Map is now the original cloth map.
• Various interesting Miscellaneous-articles:
  • The Altar Rooms of Ultima IV.
  • The Flames of the Principles.
  • Various others.
• The Walkthrough-section got new content:
  • A Solution to the Serpent Isle Dungeons, complete with maps.
  • Feeding values of food in Ultima VII.
  • Party members for Savage Empire and Martian Dreams.
  • A complete Solution to Ultima Underworld, including maps.
  • A complete Solution to Ultima Underworld II, including maps.
• Various other, unsorted articles.

Also, the Titans of Ether have posted a progress report for June. If you're good at writing, then why not join them - they are currently looking for a dungeon writer.
