What do you mean with "I cant install the game on DosBox"? You cannot set the sound in the install.exe or you try to "install" the game somehow somewhere?

You can try an alternative client here - http://pentagram.sourceforge.net/
Kinda like Exult for Ultima 7. |

Yes pentagram is good. It is from the same people as exult, but is still alpha as you can see in this cvs changelog snippet:
</div><table border='0' align='center' width='95%' cellpadding='3' cellspacing='1'><tr><td>QUOTE ("Pentagram CVS")</td></tr><tr><td id='QUOTE'> 2004-10-08* Matthew Jimenez <mjimenez@users.sourceforge.net> * world/actors/AnimationTracker.*: targeted jump do not affect z. * Avatar should not be able to jump higher, and gravity + inertia * should take care of falling. 2004-10-08* Willem Jan Palenstijn <wjpalenstijn@users.sourceforge.net> * games/U8Game.cpp: put avatar in stasis at the beginning 2004-10-08* Willem Jan Palenstijn <wjpalenstijn@users.sourceforge.net> * gumps/PaperdollGump.cpp, gumps/SliderGump.cpp: use FontManager 2004-10-07* Matthew Jimenez <mjimenez@users.sourceforge.net> * kernel/GUIApp.cpp: clean up the textmodes input handling for possible * additions to type of input it could handle. [/b][/quote] When you emulate is in dosbox you should try the latest patch, which you can still find on ea's ftp. The patch repairs many plot bugs and finally the avatar jumps where you want him to jump. Makes ultima 8 a less jump & run. c ya |

Experiment with CTRL-F11, CTRL-F12 and CTRL-F7 and CTRL-F8. I have up to date computer and it was hell of a choppy. It works averagely now.

Great site, I discovered it two days ago and I am in Heaven!
I downloaded Ultima 8 to play in my Win98SE PC and I am having some trouble. I am using your system disk utility to start up the PC, but when I load U8 the system freezes. Any ideas? :help: |

This question belongs rather to Troubleshooting.
Anyway, did you try to play the game in DosBox? You can get it also from this site under Programs. |

I thought DOSBox was only good for WinXP. I'll give it a shot.
Thanks. |

I can't get the damn thing to install at all. I've tried extracting the whole thing and running INSTALL.EXE under both Dos Box and VDM sound. Neither one was able to install the game. I kept getting the message "Halted: Internal Error!" no matter what I did. How do I install this damn game?
