Exult

About

Exult is the masterpiece that inspired all the other SDL-based engines. After having started off as a humble viewer of the Ultima 7 game world, it quickly evolved into a complete engine for Ultima 7, along with many improvements. Development on Exult is complete, and development is now concentrating on improving minor things with Exult itself, developing Exult Studio and developing Pentagram for Ultima 8.

Hacki's Ultima Page

About

Hacki's Ultima Page is the only Ultima website dedicated to nitpicking the Ultima series, i.e. discovering every little fault in the games. This site is an extensive archive of Ultima nitpicks submitted by many different people; anyone can submit a nitpick, though there are a few simple rules to prevent it from getting boring (no nitpicking of bugs, for example).

Hacki's Ultima Page started off by aggressively nitpicking Ultima 9, to prove what a poor game it is. For fun, the nitpicking tradition was eventually extended to all the other Ultimas.

La Legende d' Ultima

About

La Legende d' Ultima is a French information site which used to host various Ultima resources from Ultima sources, although Sergorn himself translated several pieces of written information to French. As from August 2005 an English version of the site, called "The Ultima Legend", became available. In more recent years, the site became what it is now - a French-only shadow of its former glory, with the news/blog being the main attraction.

Ultima: Aiera

About

Aiera was made by Withstand the Fury Dragon to continue the legacy of Ultima: The Reconstruction when it became silent and out of date. Aiera was for a long time the top Ultima remakes hub, hosting downloads of the Ultima remakes, and posting news regularly about them, until it was reincarnated as The Ultima Codex by the same author.

I had assisted in the creation and maintenance of Aiera, and Withstand the Fury Dragon and I have often collaborated to bring the best of Ultima news and resources to the Ultima community.

IT-HE Software

About

IT-HE Software is a unique site mostly dedicated to abusing the games' technical flaws and glitches (aka bugs). This page is famous particularly for its anti-walkthroughs (walkthroughs describing how to beat the game by breaking all the rules, exploiting bugs, being evil and enjoying it a good deal), but also for its extensive list of fun things to do in the games from Ultima 6 to 9. Even after having read through it several times, you can go back one day to read it again, and it will still make you laugh.

Nowadays, you can enjoy a new dimension of mischief via the related YouTube channel.

The Ultima Emulation Archive

About

The Ultima Emulation Archive, formerly known as the Dragon's Den, was once a host for many non-PC versions of the Ultima games (such as Game Boy, Atari, C64, etc). Thanks to the Internet Archive, I have managed to recover some of the pages in this site. They are stripped of images and many links are broken, but quite a few resources, especially the text files, are there.

Samson Dragon, who maintained the Ultima Emulation Archive, also had an Ultima 4 website at a different web address. Several years after the demise of the Ultima Emulation Archive, this website also followed its fate.

Ultima Classics Revisited

About

Quoting this piece of news from The Ultima Codex:

This short-lived, ambitious project by prmths aimed to create engines, compatible with most modern operating systems, for the first six Ultima games (and Akalabeth). It... fell short of that goal, disappearing shortly after the release of a beta version that fully supported Akalabeth and partially supported Ultima 1.

Many people know that Ultima 8 was a buggy game, sometimes annoying with jumping puzzles, and very hard to run on modern operating systems.

Ultima 1 - A Legend is Reborn

About

The Ultima 1 remake was one of the first Ultima remakes, definately the most popular, and possibly the one that inspired many of the others that there are today. Back in the day, it was the only remake that had released three technology demos of its beautiful game engine, with wonderful landscape and a small plot to keep it from getting boring.

Unfortunately, it was cancelled on 3rd January 2003. Working under the shadow of possible consequences from EA was too much to bear. The team then abandoned all Ultima connections and began working on "Era", but that, too, was cancelled.

The remake was being developed by the Peroxide team and led by Telemachos. They developed their own engine for this.

Ultima 4 - The Dawn of Virtue

About

This remake was one of the most promising remakes, along with Ultima 1 - A Legend is Reborn and Ultima 5 - Lazarus. A demo was promised in December 2001, but it was never released, as the team kept insisting on adding features and postponing the release to when there were enough features.

The site unexpectedly went down in September 2004, and a farewell notice was posted on the 17th of the same month:

The Ultima IV: The Dawn of Virtue project was started in 2001. After nearly three years of communication with Electronic Arts Inc. to seek legal permission for the project, they have told me they cannot grant it. Therefore, Ultima IV: The Dawn of Virtue is canceled and the project is closed.

I am extremely disappointed with this turn of events. Ultima IV: The Dawn of Virtue was a project I was very passionate about and on which I had worked arduously.

Ultima 7: Blackrock

About

Ultima 7: Blackrock was a project using the Exult engine which aimed to remake The Black Gate and Serpent Isle, adding the long-forgotten Serpent Isle original plot and elaborating on elements in The Black Gate that could have been expanded further.

From their website:

What is Ultima 7: Blackrock?

Ultima 7: Blackrock is a project to addon to and expand the story and game world of the Ultima 7: Black Gate and Ultima 7 Part Two: Serpent Isle games. It elaborates on a lot of "what if" scenarios in both games, adding to an already very open pair of games. It also adds a few new plot elements and twists into the storyline of the two games and brings a lot of elements from previous Ultima games back into the story.

Ultima Online: Serpent Isle

About

higHChloride writes: "Ultima Online: Serpent Isle is a shard in active development featuring an ongoing recreation of the Serpent Isle map. The cities of Monitor, Fawn, and Moonshade are already completed, as is the Inn of the Sleeping Bull, and players are invited to log on now and begin their adventures. Alongside tile-by-tile recreations of the original locations, there are new areas which take advantage of unused or previously inaccessible parts of the map. The shard is running on modified Stygian Abyss era rules and PvP is enabled. A customized client is offered which includes both artwork and music featured in the original game. You can find more by visiting https://uoserpentisle.com."
