Sure if you could tell me how to do that. Is there someplace I can upload it here? If not, can you point me to a common way to host files?? The files are only 3 and 5 megs though so I could probably just email them.

For common file hosting, there are a few sites out there, 4shared is one, and there you can upload the files for free too.

If you want to give it to AB, which is even better, contact the admins (at least The_Fifth_Horseman and Romano are around pretty often) and they'll give you further instructions on how to u/l to AB.

Gosh golly gee, I really want to play the Ultima Underworld series again.
It was so underrated for its time, but it's one of the most well-done, complex dungeon-crawler I've ever played. I love this game to no end.

When I was younger playing it, my brother would always try to scare me by making loud noises in the background during the intense parts - as if the game itself wasn't suspenseful and creepy enough with the amazing musical soundtrack.

I recently changed my computer, and the game doesn´t run on windowa vista. Has anybody out there developed a patch so that it does?

No. But there's the Dosbox, a dos-emulator which works.

The "patch" you need is called DOSBox, and you will find a link to the download site here http://www.abandonia.com/en/node/23027
Please read our guide in Troubleshooting for setting it up correctly

I'm playing UU1, and have gotten fairly far. The problem is that sometimes item's dissapear when i save my game. I keep an eye on my stuff, so i've delt with it.
The problem now is, in all my save files, i SHOULD be wearing a chain shirt, instead the 'paper doll' displays a yellow box, and when i 'look' at it, where i should be wearing a chain shirt, it says 'day old piece of bread'.
I move it, and sure enough, the curser turns into a day old piece of bread, and the paper doll displays an unarmored me. Ok, so i lost a chain shirt, i can live with that, but it seems i have also lost the 4 or so 'stones' worth of weight associated with a chain shirt.
So not only did my armor turn into a piece of bread, my carrying capacity went down, from 54 to 50. I've saved new files, taken off all items, put them back on, saved again...nothing seems to get that weight back. Any suggestions?
Thanks

The major cause of this is hording. If you have a large number of items (30 - 40 items total) in one location (one room, one bag, one pack), the game may corrupt some of your objects.

I personally always keep my bags tidy, with none of them holding more than 8 items. For example a backpack with 7 items and one chest, inside the chest I put another 7 items and so on.

The solution is, that objects are stored in memory one after the other. If the inventory of one item gets too big, it overwrites the memory of the beginning of the next item.

You can continue to play the game without re-starting, but you may not be able to finish the game if a quest item is corrupted.

never had this bug pop up. however i did have rooms in every level where i would put the loot (food and some gems). I didn't use many things and the ones i could i just sold for money.

Some old versions of UU have this bug, I saw it. A version on this site is free of bugs. Download and play it. Don’t use your old savegames, you have to start from the beginning to avoid this bug.
