Well, I do have the Rums of a 92, so I can still play... :Dbiggrin.gif

I recommend using the TI92+ ROM due to the QWERTY keyboard. So when talking to NPCs, you can easily type in the questions you want to ask them.

Not to mention, the the font is easier to read.

Ultima V Factoid:

Ultima V: Warriors of Destiny cost $60 back in 1988. O_Oshocked2.gif

That was a lot of money back then. Minimum wage was $3.35 per hour. :Pblah.gif

I estimate Ultima V would cost about $90 in 1988 dollars.

Back then Ultimas came with multiple very nice manuals, a cloth map, some "collector" coins (or some other trinket). When you opened the box... you knew it was an Ultima game -- it was very cool. Unfortunately, I think this type of packaging went away beginning with Ultima VII.

 Lots of behind the scenes work going on right now.

Hmmmm..... let's see:

- Mixing spells is almost done.
- Reformatted more map data (reduced code size and speed increase)
- Rework the event loop (easier to read code, but more memory)
- Implemented automatic camera movement during combat (cool) B)cool.gif

Summer 2006 is still looking good. ;)wink.gif

Ultima V Update:

- Mixing Spells is working :)smile.gif
- Readying weapons, armor, helmuts, shield, rings, and amulets is working :Dbiggrin.gif
- Climbing over fences, rockpiles, and mountains is working (mountain climbing requires a special item ;)wink.gif )

Combat is about 30% complete. I think I will work on the "Search" and "Get" commands and then finish up combat. %)rolleyes2.gif
