IMO the advantages of Exult outweigh the disadvantages by a big margin.

Anyone know what changes there are, I've looked for a list or something. But found nothing... Maybe I suck at the Internet?

Hi.
I had to format my pc recently, and installed DOS so i could play everything i played when i was knee high to a grashopper. The problem with Ultima 7 is that runs so fast that it is nearly unplayable. do you maybe have a program to slow it down? I booted the PC using your bootdisk, but it was still too fast. please help me.

Well you can play U7 on a modern windows PC with Exult, but if all you have is a DOS PC you will need to use a slowdown utility like Moslo.

There are probably better programs to use, but I think moslo is still a good one.

:help: I recently downloaded Ultima 7 from abondonia and Im having a problem opening it up using DOS box. The message I get after typing 'ultima 7" is " Please remove the expanded memory manager before running ultima 7." Problem is, I can't get ahold of the Reference manual it refers you to. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Just try playing it in Exult... Exult Sourcefourge (HERE)

Well, either play the game with the program that's mentioned below your post, or get DosBox from this site, install it and edit the file dosbox.conf as following:

Search for these lines:
[dos]
# xms -- Enable XMS support.
# ems -- Enable EMS support.

xms=true
ems=true
and change the line ems=true to ems=false
After that you can play the game without problems (usually).

Exult is ok, but the game runs subtly different from how I remember it playing back in the day. Basically combat feels faster and sloppier, and since there's so much combat in the game this can be a big issue...

I'd really recommend running it in Dosbox, if your computer is fast enough to run at a decent framerate and not have sound stutters. You might have to search the web for the stupid copy protection answers though.

k: I remember buying this game when it first came out. YES I actually bought it .
This game still rules !!! I play a lot of games on the x-box and pc know but none even relate to the pleasure I had solving this game.

I never bought/saw the add-ons. How would I get these?

This site rules !!!!
