I brought Pagan on the 3.5 and CD only installed to see if it worked and then put it away. I did like what I saw though and was planning on playing it one day which never came. I still have them and the whole Ultima collection. I would like to see a return to Ultima but guess that would never happen and yes, out of the whole series Ultima 7 and its expansions was the best.:thumbs:

Unprotected - YEY! Time to celebrate

So, is this the full game or a CD-rip?

[Scatty]

There is no such thing as a Cd-Rip of Ultima VIII, the game is installing itself fully from the files on CD and plays from hard drive. This is what you have for download here, the installed and ready full game.

Yes, except that the "cd version" came with the speech pack integrated, the floppy version had it seperate.

Thanks for the info!

Looks like its there. I just downloaded and compared it to mine installed from the original Ultima Collection CD and all the sound files look the same.
The directory from abandonia is 1-2MB bigger then mine though... Maybe mine doesnt have em, to be honest after all these years Ive never been interested in even starting Pagan so never actually played it hehe..

Just finished the game. At the moment my desk if filled with notes containing scribbled texts on reagents, spells and other obscurities. A game without a quest log or map of any kind was quite the challenge. Though early memories of my first playthrough during the nineties helped a lot.

Is a real shame that they never released the expansion. There are some screenshots out there and they look really interesting.

Oh, first post in this forum by the way. I just had to join up as thanks to Abandonia for making this game available.

They actually did make a finished version of the expansion The Lost Vale though never released it for sale. But there is one single full version of it which was sold on eBay in around 2005 for a huge mass of money to a collector who's of course holding it tight instead of releasing it to everyone for being available.
Look here for details: Link

Question :
is the Reagants that can be found around certain area will be regenerated again after some time passed or not ...

[Scatty]

Yes and no. Every single placed item in the game doesn't respawn so once it is used up or thrown into the water, it disappears forever. But you can get more reagents if you slay monsters who do respawn in some areas, some types of monsters tend sometimes to have some reagents on their corpses such as trolls, ghosts and probably skeletons though not that sure for the last. In any case you're better advised not to waste any reagent you find along the way, they're not unlimited.
