Ultima VII, in Automagical 3D

Posted by Zonk on from the who-doesn't-like-automagic? dept.

WWWWolf writes "Ultima VII is quite well emulated using Exult. Exult folks have added quite a few handy additions to the game, but nothing they have done quite matches their newest feature: Exult in 3D. There is talk about support for actual 3D models in future. Being an alpha-quality work at the moment, the source is not available, but there's a load of screenshots and a Linux binary to try."

    In actuality, they are making the true plans for Ultima 9. Origin had plans for an isometric 3d game for U9 when they thought it would be cool to drop the camera down all the way. The work this guy has done is incredible.

    It's not Ultima Online, it's Ultima 7.

    Not to mention, Ultima Online came before Everquest, so wouldnt that make EQ a UO clone?
