<p>
Ultima VII, an RPG from the early 1990's, still has a huge following. But,
being a DOS game with a very nonstandard memory manager, it is difficult
to run it on the latest computers. <em>Exult</em> is a project that created
an Ultima VII game engine that runs on modern operating systems, capable of
using the data and graphics files that come with the game.
</p>
<p>
<em>Exult</em> is written in C++ and runs on, at least, Linux, macOS and Windows
using the SDL2 library to make porting to other platforms relatively easy.
The current version supports all of "Ultima VII: The Black Gate"
and "Ultima VII - Part 2: The Serpent Isle", allowing you to
finish both games. This is only possible due to the work done
by other fans who have decoded the various Ultima VII data files,
especially Gary Thompson, Maxim Shatskih, Jakob Schonberg, and Wouter Dijkslag.
</p>
<p>
<em>Exult</em> aims to let those people who own Ultima VII (copyright 1993)
play the game on modern hardware, in as close to (or perhaps even surpassing)
its original splendor as is possible. You need to <strong>own</strong>
"Ultima VII: The Black Gate" and/or
"Ultima VII - Part 2: The Serpent Isle" and optionally
the add-ons (not required to run) in order to use <em>Exult</em>,
and we encourage you to buy a legal copy.

<tr><td><strong><a id="terms">1.3. Terms we use in regard to Exult and Ultima VII</a></strong></td></tr>
<tr><td>
<p>
We are using many terms in this documentation, the FAQ and other documentation
files that people may have difficulties to understand. Here we will try to give
some explanations.
</p>
<ul>
<li>
<strong>BG</strong>, <strong>SI</strong>, <strong>FoV</strong>
or <strong>SS</strong>:<br>
we refer to "Ultima VII: The Black Gate" as BG and to
"Ultima VII - Part 2: The Serpent Isle"
as SI. The add-ons "Forge of Virtue" and "Silver Seed" are
called FoV and SS.</li>
<li>
<strong>eggs</strong>:<br>
these are trip-wires that can cause monsters to spawn, execute scripts, play
music, change weather, trigger traps or teleport when you get near them.</li>
<li>
<strong>flex files</strong>:<br>
also known as flexes, these are used by the original to store the data files.
Also when you choose to not use compressed save games (see save_compression_level in
<a href="#exult_config">11.1.</a>) our savegames are also 'flexed'.</li>
<li>
<strong>gumps</strong>:<br>
the windows used in the game interface for containers, characters, menus, etc..</li>
<li>
<strong>paperdoll</strong>:<br>
when pressing '<span class="highlight">i</span>' you get the inventory display. It's the picture of your
characters body (or the bodies of your party members) onto which you can drag all
kinds of equipment. The way this is displayed in SI is commonly called
paperdoll. We integrated this for BG as well.
(see <a href="faq.html#improvements">FAQ</a>).</li>
<li>
<strong>shapes</strong>:<br>
shape files are the format used for storage of all graphics elements (from UI buttons
to terrain features) of the games <em>Exult</em> supports. Shapes may contain one or more
frames (a frame is a single image).</li>
<li>
<strong>snapshot</strong>:<br>
see <a href="faq.html#whatis_snapshot">FAQ</a>.<br>
Please note that our documentation usually refers to the latest snapshot.</li>
<li>
<strong>usecode</strong>:<br>
that's the scripting language that drives all of Ultima VII (conversations, objects...).</li>
<li>
<strong>Exult data folder</strong>:<br>
that's the folder where <em>Exult</em> stores its data files (exult.flx, exult_bg.flx and
exult_si.flx).</li>
<li>
<strong>gamename</strong><br>
name of games that are set in exult.cfg's <game>, <em>Exult</em> knows by default
the gamenames <b><i><span style="font-size: larger">blackgate</span></i></b>, <b><i><span style="font-size: larger">forgeofvirtue</span></i></b>, <b><i><span style="font-size: larger">serpentisle</span></i></b>,
<b><i><span style="font-size: larger">silverseed</span></i></b> and <b><i><span style="font-size: larger">serpentbeta</span></i></b>.</li>

<tr><td>
<ul>
<li>First you need to get Ultima VII. Either you own it already, or
you buy it somewhere.</li>
<li>You need an installed version of Ultima VII to run <em>Exult</em> with.
At <a href="#Installing-the-original-Ultima-VII-games-for-use-with-Exult">12. Installing the original Ultima VII games for use with Exult</a>
we have a guide on how to install the original games or use the version offered by GOG.com.</li>
<li>Download <em>Exult</em> from our
<a href="https://exult.info/download.php">download page</a>
and install it. The Windows version comes with an installer that asks for the
location of both BG and SI. If you entered the correct location or you are using the default
games locations on Linux systems and macOS the next two steps are not necessary.</li>
<li>Now run <strong>exult</strong> (<strong>exult.exe</strong> on Windows)
and quit it immediately.</li>
<li>Edit the configuration file with a text editor (e.g. on Windows use Notepad)
and enter the correct paths for the game folders - see <a href="#exult_config">11.1.</a>
for details</li>
<li>Run <strong>exult</strong> and enjoy the game :-)</li>
</ul>
<p>
<strong>Word of advice:</strong> Don't mix the files from BG and SI.

<p>
Most of the options in <em>Exult</em> can be changed from the <strong>Setup</strong>
menu when you run <em>Exult</em> or via the Game Options menu. <em>Exult</em> stores these
changes in a configuration file. Except for changing paths to the games you
shouldn't need to edit the file. Very few options need manual editing.<br>
However if you need to edit the configuration file, it is extensively explained
in <a href="#The-exult.cfg-file">11. The exult.cfg file</a>.
</p>
<p>
The location of the file varies depending on the Operating System and in the
case of Windows OS it also depends on the version of Windows.
</p>
<ul>
<li>On Linux systems you can expect to find it in <span class="highlight"><kbd>$HOME/.exult.cfg</kbd></span>, or
in <span class="highlight"><kbd>$HOME/.var/apps/info.exult.exult/config/exult.cfg</kbd></span> if using the
<a href="https://flathub.org/apps/info.exult.exult">Flatpak package</a>
</li>

<p>
On macOS <em>Exult</em> uses a couple of different folders to follow Apple's guidelines:
</p>
<p>
Note that on macOS <em>Exult</em> looks in a default folder (<span class="highlight"><kbd>/Library/Application Support/Exult/data</kbd></span>)
for <em>Exult</em>'s data and the files of the games. On purpose this folder is not in the User-only
space, so other users on the same mac can play the games and use the Exult.app.<br>
<strong>But</strong> you will need to follow our gamename standard when you name the game
folders, see <a href="#terms">1.3. Terms we use in regard to Exult and Ultima VII</a>, otherwise <em>Exult</em> will not find them there.<br>
Another specialty on macOS is that the Exult.app comes bundled with the <em>Exult</em> data, so
<em>Exult</em> will first use the data in the Exult.app and then use the data in the default folder
or the location written down in exult.cfg's <data_path>.<br>
This means that you can copy the sfx files and the digital music folder into the app bundle
(<span class="highlight"><kbd>Exult.app/Contents/Resources/data</kbd></span>) and <em>Exult</em> will automatically use these.
</p>
<p>
Example: User named <strong>FooBar</strong> on <strong>macOS 14</strong>. BG is installed to
<span class="highlight"><kbd>/Library/Application Support/Exult/blackgate</kbd></span> and SI is installed to
<span class="highlight"><kbd>/Library/Application Support/Exult/serpentisle</kbd></span>.<br>
The app Exult.app is saved to <span class="highlight"><kbd>/Applications</kbd></span>. When you run <em>Exult</em> it will automatically
recognize that BG and SI are installed. You do not need to edit exult.cfg, which is saved
to <span class="highlight"><kbd>/Users/FooBar/Library/Preferences/exult.cfg</kbd></span>.<br>
When you save a game in BG the savegame will be saved to
<span class="highlight"><kbd>/Users/FooBar/Library/Application Support/exult/blackgate/</kbd></span>,
for SI to <span class="highlight"><kbd>Users/FooBar/Library/Application Support/exult/serpentisle/</kbd></span>.<br>
If you install for example the keyring mod, you copy the contents of the Keyring.zip to
<span class="highlight"><kbd>/Library/Application Support/Exult/blackgate/mods</kbd></span>. When you save a game with the
Keyring mod, this savegame will be found in
<span class="highlight"><kbd>/Users/FooBar/Library/Application Support/exult/blackgate/mods/keyring/</kbd></span>.
</p>
<p>
Please be aware of the difference between <span class="highlight"><kbd>/Library/...</kbd></span> and <span class="highlight"><kbd>~/Library/...</kbd></span>.<br>
In the root of your macOS system hard drive is the folder <span class="highlight"><kbd>/Library</kbd></span>. The folder
<span class="highlight"><kbd>~/Library</kbd></span> is a sub folder of your home folder. If your username is foobar then the folder
<span class="highlight"><kbd>~/Library</kbd></span> is located at <span class="highlight"><kbd>/Users/foobar/Library</kbd></span> on your hard drive.<br>
On macOS the folder <span class="highlight"><kbd>~/Library</kbd></span> is hidden by default. To access it open Finder,
click on the menu item 'Go' while pressing '<span class="highlight">Option/Alt</span>' and 'Library' will be an option
to click on.
</p>
<p>
If you followed all the instructions and <em>Exult</em> still won't recognize the games, you can try
deleting exult.cfg in <span class="highlight"><kbd>~/Library/Preferences</kbd></span> and then start <em>Exult</em> to generate
a new cfg file.
</p>
<p>
At <a href="#path_config_osx">11.4. Path-Settings for macOS</a> you can see an exult.cfg example with the macOS defaults.

<p>
As on macOS, <em>Exult</em> uses a default path on Linux systems for its data folder and the game files.
Unless you configure custom paths in <span class="highlight"><kbd>exult.cfg</kbd></span>, <em>Exult</em> will automatically look for
the game data files in <span class="highlight"><kbd>/usr/local/share/exult</kbd></span>, or in the case of the the
<a href="https://flathub.org/apps/info.exult.exult">Flatpak package</a>, in
<span class="highlight"><kbd>$HOME/.var/app/info.exult.exult/data/</kbd></span>.<br>
<strong>But</strong> you will need to follow our gamename standard when you name the game
folders, see <a href="#terms">1.3. Terms we use in regard to Exult and Ultima VII</a>, otherwise <em>Exult</em> will not find them there.
</p>
<p>
Example: User named <strong>FooBar</strong> on <strong>Ubuntu</strong>. BG is installed to
<span class="highlight"><kbd>/usr/local/share/exult/blackgate</kbd></span> and SI is installed to
<span class="highlight"><kbd>/usr/local/share/exult/serpentisle</kbd></span>.
When you run <em>Exult</em> it will automatically recognize that BG and SI are installed. You do not
need to edit exult.cfg, which is saved to <span class="highlight"><kbd>$HOME/.exult.cfg</kbd></span>.<br>
When you save a game in BG the savegame will be saved to <span class="highlight"><kbd>$HOME/.exult/blackgate/</kbd></span>,
for SI to <span class="highlight"><kbd>$HOME/.exult/serpentisle/</kbd></span>.<br>
If you install for example the keyring mod, you copy the contents of the Keyring.zip to
<span class="highlight"><kbd>/usr/local/share/Exult/blackgate/mods</kbd></span>. When you save a game with the Keyring mod,
this savegame will be found in <span class="highlight"><kbd>$HOME/.exult/blackgate/mods/keyring/</kbd></span>.

<em>Exult</em> offers some command line options:
</p>
<ul>
<li>'<span class="highlight">-h</span>' or '<span class="highlight">--help</span>'<br>
Shows all the command line parameters in stderr (stderr.txt on Windows systems).</li>
<li>'<span class="highlight">-v</span>' or '<span class="highlight">--version</span>'<br>
Shows version information in stderr.</li>
<li>'<span class="highlight">-c configfile</span>'<br>
Specify alternate config file (relative or absolute paths work).</li>
<li>'<span class="highlight">-p</span>'<br>
Portable option for Windows only. <em>Exult</em> will read cfg file from the folder it got
installed to (or make one) and will assume the games to be in the gamename subfolders
(see <a href="#terms">1.3.</a>).<br>
For example if <em>Exult</em> got installed to <span class="highlight"><kbd>E:\Exult</kbd></span>, a BG game will be expected
to be in <span class="highlight"><kbd>E:\Exult\blackgate</kbd></span>. Savegames will also be saved in these folders.<br>
Be careful that you have actually writing permissions in the <em>Exult</em> folder or
this will fail.</li>
<li>'<span class="highlight">--bg</span>'<br>
Starts the game with the Black Gate menu (prefers original game).</li>
<li>'<span class="highlight">--fov</span>'<br>
Starts the game with the menu of the Black Gate with Forge of Virtue expansion.
Only useful if you have FoV added as described at <a href="#advanced_config">11.6.</a>,
otherwise it will just work like the command '<span class="highlight">--bg</span>'.</li>
<li>'<span class="highlight">--si</span>'<br>
Starts the game with the Serpent Isle menu (prefers original game).</li>
<li>'<span class="highlight">--ss</span>'<br>
Starts the game with the menu of the Serpent Isle with Silver Seed expansion.
Only useful if you have SS added as described at <a href="#advanced_config">11.6.</a>,
otherwise it will just work like the command '<span class="highlight">--si</span>'.</li>
<li>'<span class="highlight">--sib</span>'<br>

'<span class="highlight">--ss</span>', '<span class="highlight">--sib</span>' or '<span class="highlight">--game gamename</span>'; runs the specified
game using the mod with title equal to '<span class="highlight">modname</span>'. '<span class="highlight">modname</span>' is the
name of the mod cfg file (e.g. keyring.cfg means 'modname' is 'keyring'.</li>
<li>'<span class="highlight">--buildmap x</span>'<br>
x = 0 shows all roofs, x = 2 pops them all.<br>
Makes 144 2048x2048 pixels screenshots of the game map which you will need to piece
together. The screenshots are numbered according to the
<a href="exult_studio.html#ifix_iregs">ifix/ireg map</a>.<br>
By default the screenshots are PNG files. In the unlikely case that <em>Exult</em> was compiled
without libpng support, buildmap will output PCX files.<br>
<em>Exult</em> is required to be run in windowed mode and you get the best map if you
started a new game before you build the map.<br>
You need to specify a game, either by '<span class="highlight">--bg</span>' (or '<span class="highlight">--si</span>',
'<span class="highlight">--fov</span>', '<span class="highlight">--ss</span>', '<span class="highlight">--sib</span>') or with the
'<span class="highlight">--game</span>'/'<span class="highlight">--mod</span>' option.</li>
<li>'<span class="highlight">--mapnum</span>'<br>
This must be used with '<span class="highlight">--buildmap</span>' to select a map in multimap games or mods.</li>
<li>'<span class="highlight">--nocrc</span>'<br>
<em>Exult</em> doesn't start when the crc of the
exult*.flx files in the data folder isn't the same it got compiled with.
This parameter lets the game start nevertheless. Don't try this if you
don't know what you are doing as it is likely to crash <em>Exult</em>.</li>
<li>'<span class="highlight">--verify-files</span>'<br>
Verifies that the files in static dir are not corrupt.<br>
Only valid if used together with '<span class="highlight">--bg</span>', '<span class="highlight">--si</span>', '<span class="highlight">--fov</span>',
'<span class="highlight">--ss</span>', '<span class="highlight">--sib</span>' or '<span class="highlight">--game gamename</span>'; you cannot specify a mod with this flag.</li>
<li>'<span class="highlight">--edit</span>'<br>
Start in map-edit mode. This will also load <em>Exult Studio</em> when the game is started.</li>
<li>'<span class="highlight">--write-xml</span>'<br>
Write <span class="highlight"><kbd>patch/exultgame.xml</kbd></span>. Only useful for game editing.</li>
<li>'<span class="highlight">--reset-video</span>'<br>
resets <em>Exult</em>'s video settings to the default values. Very helpful when <em>Exult</em>
isn't playable anymore because of wrong settings.</li>

Hard will neither allow the player to control charmed party members, including the Avatar, nor
access the inventory of a charmed party member. But you can still manipulate objects that are not
in the charmed party members possessions even if the Avatar is the one who is charmed. Charmed
party members will continue to attack, even if the player ends combat.</li>

<p>
There are three general ways that music is played in <em>Exult</em>. One is using MIDI, which
plays the music through any MIDI device, software synthesizers (TiMidity,FluidSynth) or
even MIDI device emulators like Munt MT-32 Emulator (or <em>Exult</em>'s built-in MT32Emu).
Another way is Digital Music encoded into OGG (similar to MP3) which was recorded
directly from a Roland MT-32.
The third option is FMOpl which emulates Opl2/Adlib.<br>
The MIDI files are converted on-the-fly from the original Ultima VII MT-32 files to
General MIDI format so that they will be playable on modern General MIDI and
General MIDI/GS supporting sound cards.
</p>
<p>
The Music driver options can be changed in the in-game menu that you open by hitting
'<span class="highlight">ESC</span>'.<br>
There you can enable Digital Music and change the MIDI driver, through which you can
also select the FMOpl emulation. When you enable Digital Music, it takes precedence over
the MIDI driver.
</p>
<p>
<em>Exult</em> allows changing of how the games' music loops.
</p>
<ul>
<li>
<strong>never</strong><br>
disables music looping entirely.</li>
<li>
<strong>endless</strong><br>
lopping music will not stop until a new music piece is being played.</li>
<li>
<strong>auto</strong><br>
Music will loop but music started by a jukebox egg will stop looping when the avatar
is too far away. The music will play through to the end of the track.</li>
<li>
<strong>limited</strong><br>
same as auto but music will immediately stop when too far from the egg instead of
playing through to the end.</li>

<p>
The MIDI driver can be changed to:
</p>
<ul>
<li>
<strong>Default</strong><br>
This setting utilizes the FMOpl driver.</li>
<li>
<strong>FMOPL</strong><br>
This is a Software FM Synthesizer (also known as a emulated Opl2/Adlib).</li>
<li>
<strong>TiMidity</strong><br>
is a software synthesizer that can play MIDI files without a hardware synthesizer.
You can install TiMidity on all major Operating systems. You need to place tmidity.cfg
into the same folder where the <em>Exult</em> executable is installed to, otherwise TiMidity
will not work. On linux systems it needs to be in ~/.exult.</li>
<li>
<strong>FluidSynth</strong><br>
is another software synthesizer, which uses SoundFont 2 technology without need for a
SoundFont-compatible sound card. It is available for many Operating Systems and in contrast
to TiMidity still actively developed.<br>
To use FluidSynth you just need to copy a Soundfont file into the data and select it in the
<a href="#advanced_midi_gump">3.5. Advanced Audio Settings</a>.<br>
<em>Exult</em> supports FluidSynth's SoundFont stack. SoundFonts can be selected in the
<a href="#advanced_midi_gump">3.5. Advanced Audio Settings</a>.<br>
<a href="https://www.fluidsynth.org/api/LoadingSoundfonts.html">FluidSynth Documentation:</a>
<span class="highlight"><kbd>The loaded SoundFonts are treated as a stack, where each new loaded SoundFont is
placed at the top of the stack. When selecting presets by bank and program numbers,
SoundFonts are searched beginning at the top of the stack. In the case where there are
presets in different SoundFonts with identical bank and program numbers, the preset from
the most recently loaded SoundFont is used.</kbd></span><br>
As a lightweight alternative to FluidSynth, <em>Exult</em> can be compiled against
<a href="https://github.com/divideconcept/FluidLite">FluidLite</a>.</li>
<li>
<strong>MT32Emu</strong><br>
Roland MT32 emulation requires either the ROM set 'MT32_CONTROL.ROM' and 'MT32_PCM.ROM' or
the ROM set 'CM32L_CONTROL.ROM' and 'CM32L_PCM.ROM' in the <em>Exult</em> data folder.
If both sets are present the CM32L ROM-set will be used.<br>
On case sensitive Operating Systems these files have to be saved in uppercase.<br>
For the <a href="https://flathub.org/apps/info.exult.exult">Flatpak package</a>
on Linux, these should be stored in <span class="highlight"><kbd>$HOME/.var/app/info.exult.exult/data/mt32emu/</kbd></span>.</li>
<li>
<strong>Windows</strong><br>
Using the Windows MIDI driver.</li>
<li>
<strong>CoreAudio</strong><br>
uses XMIDI on macOS and iOS. You can use a different SoundFont than macOS' default by copying a
Soundfont file into the data and select it in the <a href="#advanced_midi_gump">3.5. Advanced Audio Settings</a>.<br>
On iOS there is no default SoundFont thus you have to provide one yourself.</li>
<li>
<strong>CoreMIDI</strong><br>
on macOS this MIDI driver allows using a real MIDI device like a Roland MT32 or software
MIDI devices like Munt MT-32 Emulator. If you have more than one MIDI device you can choose the
the device in the <a href="#advanced_midi_gump">3.5. Advanced Audio Settings</a>.<br>
On iOS you can use a real device through an USB-to-MIDI adapter that is connected to the
Lightning or USB-C port of the iOS device.</li>
<li>
<strong>Alsa</strong><br>
uses ALSA on Linux systems. If your ALSA port is not on 65:0 you need to change
<config><audio><midi><alsa_port> in the exult.cfg.</li>
<li>
<strong>UnixSeqDevice</strong><br>
Linux systems write to special symbolic file, default '/dev/sequencer'. This can be
changed at <config><audio><midi><unixseqdevice> in the exult.cfg.<br>
Because of size constraints we abbreviated it to <strong>UnixSeq</strong> in the
<a href="#audio_gump">3.4.</a>.</li>
</ul>
<p>
For drivers that use a real or system MIDI device, the MIDI conversion can be changed to:
</p>
<ul>
<li>
<strong>Real MT32</strong><br>
This option will output the music with nothing changed. Because
the mapping will be for MT32s you should only use this option if
you have a MT32 compatible device. With this option <em>Exult</em> will
also send SysEx messages to the Roland MT32 display, which are nice
to watch when you have such a device.</li>
<li>
<strong>GM</strong><br>
This will convert the MT32 patches to standard General MIDI patches.
Conversion is fairly accurate but some instruments may be different.</li>
<li>
<strong>GS</strong><br>
This will convert the MT32 patches to their equivalent GS patches. This
will be a more accurate conversion that straight gm since more of the
MT32 patches are in the GS set. However, not all MIDI devices will
support this mode.</li>
<li>
<strong>GS127</strong><br>
This option is for MIDI devices that have a MT32 patch bank installed
in Bank 127. Some GS implementation have this, some don't. Only use
this if you know that you have a MT32 implementation on Bank 127.</li>
<li>
<strong>Fake MT32</strong><br>
This is for MIDI devices that behave like a MT32 but don't support
SysEx messages. Use that option if you have a SoundFont or similar loaded
for your sound card (or software synth such as FluidSynth) that contains
the MT32 capital tones but the device can't be reprogrammed using MT32
SysEx commands by <em>Exult</em>.</li>
</ul>
<p>
<strong>NOTE:</strong> Currently the conversion to GS and GS127 is not finished and
the notes are only mapped to General MIDI.

Due to the way the class was constructed input can be in either .mid, .rmi or
the Miles Sound System .xmi format. There are no limitations to the types of
.mid and .rmi supported. They can be Type 0, 1 and the rarely seen type 2. The
loading routine is also fairly lenient of erroneous XMIDI files that do not
have correct XMIDI headers.
</p>
<p>
During the development of the XMIDI class it was found that certain .xmi files
in Serpent Isle had the first patch changed after the first note. The

with some MIDI files. Currently this can not be disabled and may change in the

Similar to the above Windows MIDI mapper you can tell <em>Exult</em> on macOS which MIDI device
it should use. By default <em>Exult</em> uses macOS' CoreAudio device to output MIDI music. If you
have a real MIDI device (e.g. Roland MT32) or another software MIDI device (e.g. Munt MT-32 Emulator)
you want to use, you will need to select the CoreMidi MIDI driver.<br>
CoreMidi uses by default the MIDI device with the first device ID (0), if you have more than
one device you will need to learn the device IDs first and then set it in exult.cfg.
</p>
<p>
To do this you will need to start <em>Exult</em> in a special way:<br>
right click on the <em>Exult</em>.app, select 'Show Package Contents' which will show you the folder/file
structure of the <em>Exult</em>.app. Doubleclick on 'Contents', doubleclick on MacOS, doubleclick on exult.<br>
Terminal.app will open a window and will show you all kind of output while <em>Exult</em> will also start. In
<em>Exult</em> click on setup and in the Audio settings select the CoreMidi driver (make sure to disable
digital music).<br>
In the Terminal.app window you should now see a listing of the MIDI devices which could look like this:<br>

<em>Exult</em> needs the Digital Music pack to play Digital Music in the game. The music
pack contains music for both Black Gate and Serpent Isle, encoded in high quality
OGG format. Simon Quinn recorded the current Digital Music pack on an original
Roland MT-32 and with this you will experience the music as it would be heard with
the original game.<br>
Digital Music should work on any platform that supports digital sound and does not
use any MIDI, so it is also a good option for platforms with no MIDI support.
Additionally, Digital Music supports a number of background atmospheric SFX tracks
that are played when no music is playing. These consist of wind, bird etc effects
outside and other sound effects when inside a dungeon. These SFX tracks are not
available when using MIDI as they play Roland MT-32 specific voices that cannot
be mapped to GM/GS. These SFX tracks do not play when the music is switched off.
</p>
<p>
The digital music pack seems to have two issue, though, some tracks seem to have
been recorded at lower volume than the others. Also, since both the digital music
and the sound effects are played by the Wave / PCM of your sound card, you can no
longer have a different volume for music and sound effects.

On macOS, we recommend you download and run the installer.<br>
On Linux or if you want to manually install the all-in-one pack, you will need

To install the zip file, extract its content to the <em>Exult</em> data folder. On Linux
systems this is by default <span class="highlight"><kbd>/usr/local/share/exult</kbd></span>. On macOS it is

If you are not sure where the data folder is, search for the file
<strong>exult_bg.flx</strong> on your hard drive as this file is always in the data

Extract the zip files into your <em>Exult</em> data folder. <em>Exult</em> will automatically find and
use the SFX packs and will default to use the Roland MT32 pack when both both packs
(SoundBlaster and Roland MT-32) are present. You can then choose between the packs in the
Game Menu (<a href="#audio_gump">3.4.</a>), of course you can override this setting in the

<p>
We distinguish between the <em>Exult</em> display resolution (which determines
the size of the <em>Exult</em> window and its fullscreen rendering) and the game
area, which determines how big the in-game viewing area is.<br>
</p>
<p>
By default <em>Exult</em> runs the games at 320x200 (which is the resolution the
original Ultima VII used). <em>Exult</em> can use different scaling engines to
double the size to 640x400 or even triple the the size to 960x600 while
increasing the quality of the graphics and maintaining the same viewing
area. This allows <em>Exult</em> to show the game as an enhanced version of how it
originally appeared, and not show locations that were originally off-screen.<br>
When you first start <em>Exult</em> we apply the scaler 2xSaI which doubles the size
of each pixel, resulting in a 640x400 window.
</p>
<p>
You will also have to hit 'Apply' in the Video gump to apply your changes. <em>Exult</em>
will then use the new settings and will show you a countdown which asks you to confirm
that the new video settings are working. When you don't confirm by hitting 'YES', the
changes will be reverted. This way we try to prevent that some bad video options
combinations prevent you from playing the games.
</p>
<p>
When you disallow same settings for window and fullscreen mode in the Game menu,
settings can be set for either fullscreen or windows mode just by selecting different
settings while using either mode.

<p>
The game area with scaler applied should not be bigger than the display,
otherwise you will get strange effects and the game might crash.<br>
For example when you set the game area to 320x200 with the scaler Point
at sale factor 3, your game viewing area is actually 960x600. If your display
resolution is set to 640x480 the resolutions don't match and your <em>Exult</em>
window will be smaller than intended.<br>
<em>Exult</em> will check whether this will happen and will warn you against it, since
making the window smaller than 320x200 will cause you trouble with <em>Exult</em>s
interface and you might not be able to revert your changes.<br>
</p>
<p>
On the other hand when your display resolution is set higher than the game resolution
you can have black borders surrounding the game viewing area. The borders can be used
for positioning gumps and the face stats.<br>
You can also change the color of the borders.<br>
If you don't like black borders you can also stretched to fill the entire display
resolution, or sacled to fit the display resolution without stretching the pixels.<br>
You have the following options
</p>
<ul>
<li>
<strong>Fill</strong><br>
The game screen is stretched to fill the entire display surface. No borders will be added
in this mode. The game screen will be downsampled if it is bigger than the display
surface in this mode.</li>
<li>
<strong>Fit</strong><br>
Game is scaled to fill the display surface maintaining square pixels. Black borders
will be added to maintain aspect if needed. The game screen will be downsampled if it
is bigger than the display surface in this mode.</li>
<li>
<strong>Aspect Correct Fit</strong><br>
Same as fit, but pixels are additionally scaled using a 1:1.2 ratio. This corrects the
aspect mismatch between the non square pixels used by the original game and the square
pixels of modern screen resolutions.</li>
<li>
<strong>Centre</strong><br>
The game is centered on the display surface without additional scaling. Black borders will
be added if game screen is smaller than the display surface. Clipping will occur if the
game screen is larger than the display surface.</li>
<li>
<strong>Aspect Correct Centre</strong><br>
Same as Centre except height is scaled by 1.2x to correct pixel aspect mismatch.</li>
</ul>
<p>
If the Game Area setting is set to Auto then the game area is calculated based on the selected
fill mode with no additional scaling applied.<br>
The additional scaling method can be set to Point or Bilinear.

Using higher resolutions is considered cheating as you can see too much of

Can be used for arbitrary integer scales (2x, 3x, 4x...).</li>
<li>
<strong>Interlaced</strong><br>
identical to point except that it skips every other line to be even faster.
Can be used for arbitrary integer scales (2x, 3x, 4x...).</li>
<li>
<strong>Bilinear</strong><br>
bilinear interpolation to smooth the result. Slower than point, but looks better.
Can be used for arbitrary integer scales (2x, 3x, 4x...).</li>
<li>
<strong>BilinearPlus</strong><br>
same as Bilinear and it may even be a bit faster.</li>

<li>
<strong>4xBR</strong><br>

All key commands of <em>Exult</em> can be changed for either BG or SI. However, there
is a default setting which closely follows the original with the addition of
some improvements.
</p>
<p>
You can change your key bindings by providing your own defaultkeys file.<br>
Download <a href="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/exult/exult/master/data/bg/defaultkeys.txt">defaultkeys.txt for BG</a>
or <a href="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/exult/exult/master/data/si/defaultkeys.txt">defaultkeys.txt for SI</a>,
change the bindings and save the file (e.g. as my_keys.txt). Now you have to change
exult.cfg to use that file. See the keys settings at <a href="#exult_config">11.1.</a>
and change (default) to my_keys.txt.<br>
Our installer for Windows installs the defaultkeys files to your <em>Exult</em>
folder (bgdefaultkeys.txt for BG and sidefaultkeys.txt for SI).

<tr><td><strong><a id="shortcutbar">7.1. ShortcutBar for single or double click actions</a></strong></td></tr>
<tr><td>
<p>
Especially on mobile devices it makes sense to have a shortcutbar that allows quick actions
with just one or a double click. This was first implemented in the
<a href="https://github.com/litchie/exult-ios">Exult for iOS</a> fork but later
back ported and improved in main <em>Exult</em>. By default the shortcutbar is disabled, but can be
enabled and further configured in the <a href="#misc_gump">1.1. </a>.<br>
You can make the bar transparent (only when drawn on the map) and select different colors
for the outlines around the buttons. Some buttons only work when you have a certain item
(spellbook, jawbone in SI). You can choose to hide those buttons or display them greyed out.
</p>
<p>
The buttons have the following functions (cheat functions only work when you enabled cheats
in <a href="#gameplay_gump">1.1. </a>):
</p>
<ul>
<li>
<strong>Floppy Disk</strong><br>
Single click opens the game menu, double click the <a href="#savemenu">3.2. Load/Save Game</a><br>
Additionally clicking it will close all Gumps that are open.</li>
<li>
<strong>Dove/Flaming Sword</strong><br>
Toggles combat but also shows you whether you are in combat mode (flaming sword) when combat
is toggled in another way.</li>
<li>
<strong>Map</strong><br>
Shows you the map, on double click opens the map teleporter</li>
<li>
<strong>Spellbook</strong><br>
Opens your spellbook if you have it.</li>
<li>
<strong>Backpack</strong><br>
On each click opens the paperdoll of party members.</li>
<li>
<strong>Key (Keyring in SI)</strong><br>
Single click gives you a target pointer that tries all keys on the lock you click on. A double
click uses a lockpick if you have any in your party.<br>
When you acquire the keyring in SI, the button will change into the keyring and use that on a
single click.</li>
<li>
<strong>Notebook</strong><br>
Opens the notebook (see <a href="#notebook">7.2. Using the Notebook</a>), on double click shows you the
cheat menu.</li>
<li>
<strong>Target</strong><br>
single click gives you the target pointer, double click changes the pointer to a red cross
which will cheat teleport you wherever you click.</li>
<li>
<strong>Fork and Knife</strong><br>
A single click lets you feed a party member while a double click will use bandages or healing
potions to heal.</li>
<li>
<strong>Jawbone (SI only)</strong><br>
Opens the jawbone gump if you have the jawbone.</li>
</ul>
</td></tr>
<tr><td> </td></tr>
<tr><td><strong><a id="notebook">7.2. Using the Notebook</a></strong></td></tr>
<tr><td>
<p>
We implemented a notebook you can access by pressing '<span class="highlight">n</span>'. With this you can make
notes of things you experienced, or 'heard' from any of the NPCs. Entries will be saved when you
close the notebook and save the game.
</p>
<p>
Additionally when you have cheats enabled you will see the coordinates (in decimal) where
you wrote your note.
</p>
</td></tr>
<tr><td> </td></tr>
<tr><td><strong><a id="autonotebook">7.3. The automatic Notebook</a></strong></td></tr>
<tr><td>
<p>
If you want you can also have <em>Exult</em> automatically make some notes on its own when certain things happen in game.
This feature has not yet progressed very far, especially for SI we have mostly basic pointers of what
was noted.<br>
You can enable autonotes in the <a href="#misc_gump">1.1. </a>.
</p>
<p>
You can also write your own autonotes and override the ones that come with <em>Exult</em>.<br>
For BG download <a href="https://github.com/exult/exult/raw/master/data/bg/autonotes.txt">https://github.com/exult/exult/raw/master/data/bg/autonotes.txt</a>.<br>
For SI download <a href="https://github.com/exult/exult/raw/master/data/si/autonotes.txt">https://github.com/exult/exult/raw/master/data/si/autonotes.txt</a>.<br>
Then change the <autonotes> setting in exult.cfg to point at the path of these files instead
of being set to (default).<br>

Changing shapes, fixing or changing some usecode and such. Patches also have the
limitation that you can only have one patch per original game installed.
</p>
<p>
Mods on the other hand are more or less meant for heavy modifications of the original
games. Changing the map layout, adding NPCs and objects, changing usecode and so on.
You can have several mods installed which can be chosen from a convenient menu in <em>Exult</em>.
Because of these advantages that mods have over patches, people now develop mods rather
than patches.

To install a mod unzip or move the mod files (if they come unzipped) into your games
<span class="highlight"><kbd>mods</kbd></span> folder. By default that is the mods subfolder in the path you set for your
game in the exult.cfg file (see <a href="#path_config">11.2. Path-Settings</a>. If the folder is not
there, simply create an empty folder called <span class="highlight"><kbd>mods</kbd></span> in your games folder and
proceed as above.<br>
Now start a new game, choose the mod in the menu and enjoy the mod.

<p>
Please read the readme(.txt) that should have come with the mods. In there you will
normally find further instructions and what the mod is about and how to experience
the changes in the game.
</p>
<p>
Unfortunately, since there are always advancements in the map editing, mods that are
no longer maintained might no longer work correctly with current versions of <em>Exult</em>.
</p>
<p>
Please note that the Flatpak package for Linux systems already includes several mods
as part of the package; you do not need to install these separately. You can however
install additional mods by extracting them to
<span class="highlight"><kbd>$HOME/.var/app/info.exult.exult/data/gamename/mods/</kbd></span>; Exult will detect both

on the initial porting effort by Lanica Dragon (which had stopped in 2013).<br>
Since 2020 the port is merged in our code.
</p>
<p>
Note that <em>Exult</em> runs very nicely on iPads but the item management of the games makes
playing on the smaller iPhone screens a bit of a challenge. Starting with the
screen size of the iPhone 6 things become easier.

<ul>
<li>Write an email to Dominus Dragon
(see <a href="https://exult.info/about.php">About Us</a>) to sign up for
the beta testing (through Apple's iTunes Connect/TestFlight).</li>
<li>If your iOS device is on iOS version 12 and higher and you are running a Mac, you can download
Xcode from the AppStore, clone the git repository, run the Xcode project file and easily install
<em>Exult</em> on your device. This is called 'sideloading'.</li>
</ul>

<tr><td><strong><a id="ios_games">9.3. Installing the games on your iPhone/iPad</a></strong></td></tr>
<tr><td>
<p>
Once you have the <em>Exult</em> app on your device, you will need to upload the games to your
device using Finder or iTunes file sharing. But it needs a bit of preparing.
</p>
<p>
First you will need to put the games into a folder called game and use the following
folder structure:<br>
<span class="highlight"><kbd>game</kbd></span><br>
<span class="highlight"><kbd>+-- blackgate</kbd></span><br>
<span class="highlight"><kbd>| +--- static</kbd></span><br>
<span class="highlight"><kbd>| +---- *.*</kbd></span><br>
<span class="highlight"><kbd>+-- serpentisle</kbd></span><br>
<span class="highlight"><kbd>| +--- static</kbd></span><br>
<span class="highlight"><kbd>| +---- *.*</kbd></span><br>
Please make sure that all the file and folder names are in lowercase, iOS is case sensitive
and the games might not be detected otherwise.<br>
Don't write <span class="highlight"><kbd>+--</kbd></span> - it's only there to visualize the structure. With <span class="highlight"><kbd>*.*</kbd></span>
all the files of the static folder are meant.
</p>
<p>
On Windows connect your device to your computer, start iTunes and select your device in it. Click 'Apps',
scroll down to 'File Sharing' and select <em>Exult</em>. Now drag and drop the game folder you prepared
in the first step. See
<a href="https://support.apple.com/guide/itunes/transfer-files-itns32636/windows">
Apple's guide</a>.
</p>
<p>
On macOS you have to use Finder, select your iOS device, click on 'Files' and select
<em>Exult</em>. Now drag and drop the game folder you prepared in the first step. See
<a href="https://support.apple.com/guide/mac-help/sync-files-to-your-device-mchl4bd77d3a/mac">
Apple's guide</a>.<br>
On older macOS versions you have to use iTunes as you would on Windows.
</p>
<p>
<strong>Only</strong> use Finder or iTunes file sharing and not the Files app on iOS as you are likely
to end up with an incomplete game. The many small files of the games massiively slow down the Files app
and as soon as you switch to another app, the transfer is likely to stop.
</p>
<p>
Note: if you want to use mods just add them to the game folder structure before you drag and drop
that in iTunes file sharing.<br>
Example with the BG keyring and SI fixes mods:<br>
<span class="highlight"><kbd>game</kbd></span><br>
<span class="highlight"><kbd>+-- blackgate</kbd></span><br>
<span class="highlight"><kbd>| +--- static</kbd></span><br>
<span class="highlight"><kbd>| +---- *.*</kbd></span><br>
<span class="highlight"><kbd>| +--- mods</kbd></span><br>
<span class="highlight"><kbd>| +---- keyring</kbd></span><br>
<span class="highlight"><kbd>| +----- *.*</kbd></span><br>
<span class="highlight"><kbd>| +---- keyring.cfg</kbd></span><br>
<span class="highlight"><kbd>+-- serpentisle</kbd></span><br>
<span class="highlight"><kbd>| +--- static</kbd></span><br>
<span class="highlight"><kbd>| +---- *.*</kbd></span><br>
<span class="highlight"><kbd>| +--- mods</kbd></span><br>
<span class="highlight"><kbd>| +---- sifixes</kbd></span><br>

To make it easier to install games, mods and patches on Android, Ken has developed a launcher that starts
before <em>Exult</em>. Once you have installed everything you can start <em>Exult</em> from the first tab of the launcher.<br>
It also offers you an option to <span class="highlight"><kbd>Automatically launch <em>Exult</em> when opening the app</kbd></span>. If you later
find that you need to access the launcher again you can just longer touch the icon and select
<span class="highlight"><kbd>Force Start Launcher</kbd></span>. Alternatively, as a more permanent solution, you can toggle this in <em>Exult</em>'s
<span class="highlight"><kbd>Game Display</kbd></span> options in the setting <span class="highlight"><kbd>Android autolaunch</kbd></span>.
</p>
<ol>
<li>Download the APK from our <a href="https://exult.info/download.php">download page</a>.</li>

<p>
Once you have the <em>Exult</em> app on your device, you will need to get the games to your
device, either by copying the files from your connected desktop computer or by uploading
the files somewhere and then downloading these.
</p>
<p>
If you have bought the Games from <a href="https://gog.com">GOG.com</a> it's quite easy to do:
</p>
<ol>
<li>Browse to <a href="https://gog.com">GOG.com</a> and log in to your account</li>
<li>Tap the <strong>Your Account</strong> menu and select <strong>Games</strong>
</li>
<li>Tap the game you want to install (e.g. <strong>Ultima VII - The Black Gate + The Forge of Virtue</strong>)</li>
<li>Under <strong>System</strong> select <strong>Mac</strong>
</li>
<li>Scroll down to the section titled <strong>DOWNLOAD OFFLINE BACKUP GAME INSTALLERS</strong> and expand it</li>
<li>Tap the game name to download it. This should place a .pkg file in your Downloads folder</li>
</ol>
<p>
Alternately, if you have purchased the game from another site or own a hard copy on CD (or the original floppy
disks), you should be able to place the contents in a zip file (or other common archive format) and copy it to
your device. The important part is to zip the folder <strong>STATIC</strong> and its content. For example:<br>
<span class="highlight"><kbd>game</kbd></span><br>
<span class="highlight"><kbd>blackgate</kbd></span><br>
<span class="highlight"><kbd>|+--- static</kbd></span><br>
<span class="highlight"><kbd>| +---- *.*</kbd></span><br>
Don't write <span class="highlight"><kbd>+--</kbd></span> - it's only there to visualize the structure. With <span class="highlight"><kbd>*.*</kbd></span>
all the files of the static folder are meant.
</p>
<p>
After you have downloaded .pkg file (or otherwise loaded another archive), start the <em>Exult</em> launcher, select the
Games tab, and then tap one of the checkboxes on the left, corresponding to the game you are installing. This
will open a file browser which you can use to select the archive you downloaded, and the installer will take
care of extracting the required data files and installing them in the correct places.
</p>
<p>
Once you have successfully installed the game data, you are free to delete the .pkg (or other archive); it will
no longer be needed or used by <em>Exult</em> after installation.

<p>
For MIDI music playback on android, we are using FluidSynth. This needs a SoundFont in SF2 format which has

The way <em>Exult</em> generates default paths (for gamedat, savegames, mods, patches) has changed since Version 1.2. It will
not write these paths to exult.cfg but use them automatically.<br>
The location where <em>Exult</em> expects those, and if needed, will create those folders is similarly depending on the Operating
System as the location of exult.cfg (see <a href="#exult_config_location">2.2. Location of exult.cfg</a>).
If you were to override these paths you would need to change the following tags (you can substitute gamename with the

But normally you don't need to. On starting up, <em>Exult</em> will first read which games
are available as configured in exult.cfg.
Then it will use the <path> setting and assume that <static_path> is <path>/static.<br>
For <savegame_path>, <gamedat_path>, <mods> and <patch> <em>Exult</em> will assume
Operating System specific paths.
</p>
<p>
These folders are used for:
</p>
<ul>
<li><data_path><br>
the most important folder. In this folder are the files <em>Exult</em> absolutely needs to run. We also check the checksums of these
files to make sure that <em>Exult</em> uses the correct ones.</li>
<li><static_path><br>
the second most important folder. In there you have the data files from the original game. You should
never touch these files.</li>
<li><savegame_path><br>
this is where <em>Exult</em> stores your savegames.</li>
<li><gamedat_path><br>
contains the (dynamic) data for the game you're currently playing. It's where the
'journey onward' and 'quicksave' 'savegame' is stored.</li>
<li><mods><br>
here mods for games are saved to. More information on this at <a href="#mods_intro">8.1. Introduction to Mods and Patches</a>
</li>
<li><patch><br>
Patches for games are saved here. More information on this at <a href="#mods_intro">8.1. Introduction to Mods and Patches</a>
</li>
</ul>
<p>
Some notes for <strong>all</strong> Operating Systems:
</p>
<ul>
<li>On Windows all of these settings, except for the <path> setting, are
<strong>optional and not required</strong>,
Exult will sort this out on its own.</li>
<li>On Linux and macOS you might even not need to touch the <path> setting, if you stick to
our standard gamenames.</li>
<li>You can either use the relative (e.g. <span class="highlight"><kbd>./ultima7</kbd></span>) or absolute
(e.g. <span class="highlight"><kbd>C:\Games\ultima7</kbd></span>) path to point to the correct folder. The relative path uses
the exult.exe, exult binary or Exult.app as base.</li>
<li>Better don't use spaces in the path (e.g. <span class="highlight"><kbd>C:\Games\the black gate\</kbd></span>). Some people
seem to have reported problems with that.</li>
<li>Path settings in exult.cfg are the <strong>same</strong> on <strong>all</strong> operating systems.
Of course you need to make adjustments on Linux systems when you enter the absolute path.</li>
<li>
<em>Exult</em> and <em>Exult Studio</em> don't trust the exult.cfg 100% and will recognize which games
you entered the path for. This means, that if you entered the path to SI in the
<blackgate><path> <em>Exult</em> and <em>Exult Studio</em> will not be fooled.</li>
<li>Don't ever point <static_path> and <gamedat_path> to the same folder.</li>
</ul>

<span class="highlight"><kbd>LOCAL_APPDATA\Exult</kbd></span> translates to <span class="highlight"><kbd>C:\Users\YourUsername\AppData\Local\Exult</kbd></span>.<br>
Also not that you can quickly access this folder by executing <span class="highlight"><kbd>shell:Local AppData\Exult</kbd></span>
in the 'Quick Access' of Explorer.<br>
For now <em>Exult</em>'s data folder is always installed into the same folder where you installed
<em>Exult</em> to (default is <span class="highlight"><kbd>C:\Program Files (x86)\Exult</kbd></span>).<br>
Also note that in contrast to macOS and Linux systems there is no default path, where <em>Exult</em> looks
for the games. You have to choose that folder yourself, but the installer will ask you for the BG and SI
folder to set your paths up.
</p>
<p>
Example: User named <strong>FooBar</strong> on <strong>Windows 11</strong>. BG is installed
to <span class="highlight"><kbd>C:\Ultima7\blackgate</kbd></span> and SI is installed to <span class="highlight"><kbd>C:\Ultima7\serpentisle</kbd></span>.
The installer of <em>Exult</em> asks for the location of these two games and automatically saves that to
exult.cfg. The installer saves exult.cfg to <span class="highlight"><kbd>C:\Users\FooBar\AppData\Local\Exult\exult.cfg</kbd></span>.
<em>Exult</em> gets installed to <span class="highlight"><kbd>C:\Program Files (x86)\Exult</kbd></span>.<br>
When you save a game in BG the savegame will be saved to
<span class="highlight"><kbd>C:\Users\FooBar\AppData\Local\Exult\blackgate\</kbd></span>, for SI to
<span class="highlight"><kbd>C:\Users\FooBar\AppData\Local\Exult\serpentisle\</kbd></span>.<br>
If you install for example the keyring mod, you copy the contents of the Keyring.zip to
<span class="highlight"><kbd>C:\Ultima7\blackgate\mods</kbd></span>. When you save a game with the Keyring mod, this savegame will be found in
<span class="highlight"><kbd>C:\Users\FooBar\AppData\Local\Exult\blackgate\mods\keyring\</kbd></span>.

Since November 2011 you can buy Ultima VII from <a href="https://www.gog.com">GOG</a>.
Unfortunately GOG only offers a Windows installer that you can't easily circumvent, which makes
it a challenge for users that use a different OS than Windows.
</p>
<p>
Right now the only way to get at the game files is to run the installer on Windows (or in WINE
if you are not a Windows user). After the installation you will find the game files in
<span class="highlight"><kbd>C:\GOG Games\Ultima 7</kbd></span> and
<span class="highlight"><kbd>C:\GOG Games\Ultima 7 - Serpent Isle</kbd></span>.
</p>
<p>
After installation you can just run our installer and when asked where the games are installed
enter or browse to the above paths.<br>
Unfortunately GOG changes the download of the games for some unknown reason again and again. So our instructions are
sometimes out of date. These ones are for the latest GOG release at the time of writing (version 1.0_(22309)). If it
doesn't work, please let us know.
</p>
<p>
On Linux systems you can use <a href="https://constexpr.org/innoextract/">innoextract</a> to extract the
games from the GOG installer.<br>
<span class="highlight"><kbd>innoextract -L -d /usr/share/exult/forgeofvirtue -e "path to GOG UltimaVII BG installer/setup_ultima_vii_-_the_black_gate_1.0_(22309).exe"</kbd></span><br>

<p>
Since January 2013 <a href="https://www.gog.com">GOG</a> also offers a macOS download for each of the
Ultima VII parts. These are install packages for macOS that will install the
two parts into your Applications folder as applications that use a modified version of DOSBox to play the game.
If you want to make <em>Exult</em> automatically find the games, you will need to copy the game files from these
applications to a different folder on your hard drive. To do this follow the next few steps.<br>
These instructions are the same whether you used the manual download from GOG or GOG Galaxy to install the games.
</p>
<p>
Open Terminal.app found in the Utilities subfolder of your Applications folder and enter the following commands:<br>
<span class="highlight"><kbd>sudo mkdir -p "/Library/Application Support/Exult/blackgate"</kbd></span><br>
<span class="highlight"><kbd>sudo mkdir -p "/Library/Application Support/Exult/serpentisle"</kbd></span><br>
<span class="highlight"><kbd>sudo cp -p -R "/Applications/Ultima VII™ - The Black Gate + The Forge of Virtue.app/Contents/Resources/game/STATIC" "/Library/Application Support/Exult/blackgate"</kbd></span><br>
<span class="highlight"><kbd>sudo cp -p -R "/Applications/Ultima VII™ - Serpent Isle + The Silver Seed.app/Contents/Resources/game/STATIC" "/Library/Application Support/Exult/serpentisle"</kbd></span><br>
Because we need elevated rights the commands are using sudo and will ask for your password and you
will need to do this with an administrator account. If you don't have that, please ask your administrator
to do this for you.<br>
Unfortunately GOG changes the download of the games for some unknown reason again and again. So our instructions are
sometimes out of date. These ones are for the latest GOG release at the time of writing (gog_3_34095). If it doesn't work,
please visit our forum and tell us.
</p>
<p>
If you are on a Linux system you can extract the files from the install packages via xar. In the extracted folder
<span class="highlight"><kbd>package.pkg</kbd></span> you will find a file called <span class="highlight"><kbd>Scripts</kbd></span> which is a cpio.gz archive.

<p>
There are a couple of CD-ROM versions of Ultima VII. Most of these come with the add-ons pre-installed
so with these you don't have to bother with installing the floppy disk version of the add-ons.
To our knowledge the following CD-ROM versions exist:
</p>
<ul>
<li>
<strong>EA Compilation</strong><br>
This includes BG and a couple of other games (Savage Empire, Ultima Underworld and other non-Ultima games).
Unfortunately BG does not have the add-on FoV included. From the CD just copy the folder <span class="highlight"><kbd>Ultima7</kbd></span> to
<span class="highlight"><kbd>C:\Games\ULTIMA7</kbd></span>.</li>
<li>
<strong>Ultima Collection</strong><br>
From the CD just copy the folders <span class="highlight"><kbd>Serpent</kbd></span> and <span class="highlight"><kbd>Ultima7</kbd></span> to <span class="highlight"><kbd>C:\Games\ULTIMA7</kbd></span>
and <span class="highlight"><kbd>C:\Games\SERPENT</kbd></span>. Don't bother with the Ultima Collection installer. Both games come with
the add-ons included.</li>
<li>
<strong>The Complete Ultima VII (EA presents CD-ROM Classics)</strong><br>
On this CD-ROM the games are zipped in Serpent.zip and Ultima7.zip. Unzip serpent.zip to
<span class="highlight"><kbd>C:\Games\SERPENT</kbd></span> and unzip Ultima7.zip to <span class="highlight"><kbd>C:\Games\ULTIMA7</kbd></span>.<br>
Both games come with the add-ons included.</li>
</ul>
<p>
On Linux systems and macOS, you might run into a permissions problem. You need to set group
permissions to read and write.<br>
On macOS select both game folders in Finder, bring up info, go to Ownership and Permissions,
expand details, change Access under Group from read only to read and write, then
click Apply.

<p>
<a href="https://dosbox.com">DOSBox</a> is a program that emulates the old Dos
and should run on any operating system that <em>Exult</em> runs on (and more). So this is perfect
for users that don't run Windows.
</p>
<p>
To install Ultima VII with DOSBox, download and install DOSBox from
<a href="https://dosbox.com">https://dosbox.com</a>. Make a new folder in your <span class="highlight"><kbd>C:\</kbd></span> drive
called <span class="highlight"><kbd>Games</kbd></span>.<br>
Insert Disk 1 in your floppy drive, start DOSBox and enter the following:<br>
<span class="highlight"><kbd>mount c C:\Games</kbd></span><br>
<span class="highlight"><kbd>mount a a:\ -t floppy</kbd></span><br>
<span class="highlight"><kbd>a:</kbd></span><br>
<span class="highlight"><kbd>install</kbd></span><br>
</p>
<p>
These days you are less likely to have floppy drive in your computer. But if you created images
of your game floppies you can use these to install the games.<br>
Follow the above instructions until you are asked to insert Disk 1. Instead enter these commands:<br>
<span class="highlight"><kbd>mount c C:\Games</kbd></span><br>
<span class="highlight"><kbd>imgmount a /path/bg-1.img /path/bg-2.img /path/bg-3.img /path/bg-4.img /path/bg-5.img /path/bg-6.img -t floppy</kbd></span><br>
<span class="highlight"><kbd>a:</kbd></span><br>
<span class="highlight"><kbd>install</kbd></span><br>
Replace path with the path to your image files. In case of installing Serpent Isle enter this
for the imgmount command:<br>
<span class="highlight"><kbd>imgmount a /path/si-1.img /path/si-2.img /path/si-3.img /path/si-4.img /path/si-5.img /path/si-6.img /path/si-7.img -t floppy</kbd></span>
When you are asked to change disk use the keyboard shortcut '<span class="highlight">Ctrl+F4</span>', which will use the next image.
</p>
<p>
The installer will start and ask you on which drive to install Ultima VII to. Choose c and
when it asks for the target folder choose <span class="highlight"><kbd>C:\ULTIMA7</kbd></span> for BG or
<span class="highlight"><kbd>C:\SERPENT</kbd></span> for SI (in both cases you can just hit enter). Next you choose
the sound card, but as this is not relevant for <em>Exult</em>, choose 'No sound card'. Confirm the
settings with 'Y' and the installer begins to make noise in your floppy drive...<br>
When asked to insert the next floppy disk and hit any key (or ESC to cancel). When the
installation is done, the installer will complain, that 'something has put your system
in protected mode...', ignore that and press any key to continue. Again it will complain
that 'your current system configuration is not compatible with Ultima VII!...', ignore
that as well and press 'N' (you don't need a boot disk for playing U7 with <em>Exult</em>). Finally
hit any key to finish your installation. Close DOSBox. The game can now be found at
<span class="highlight"><kbd>C:\Games\ULTIMA7</kbd></span> or <span class="highlight"><kbd>C:\Games\SERPENT</kbd></span>.

<p>
We assume you followed the above guide on how to <a href="#dosbox_floppy">12.4. Installing the floppy disks of BG/SI using DOSBox</a>, so you
should have BG/SI installed to <span class="highlight"><kbd>C:\Games\ULTIMA7</kbd></span> or
<span class="highlight"><kbd>C:\Games\SERPENT</kbd></span>.
</p>
<p>
Insert the add-on floppy disk in your floppy drive, start DOSBox and type the following:<br>
<span class="highlight"><kbd>mount c C:\Games</kbd></span><br>
<span class="highlight"><kbd>mount a a:\ -t floppy</kbd></span><br>
<span class="highlight"><kbd>a:</kbd></span><br>
<span class="highlight"><kbd>install</kbd></span><br>
</p>
<p>
Similar to the previous guide you can use a floppy image to install the add-ons. Just use<br>
<span class="highlight"><kbd>imgmount a /path/fov.img -t floppy</kbd></span> instead of <span class="highlight"><kbd>mount a a:\ -t floppy</kbd></span>.
</p>
<p>
Now you have to choose the drive where you installed the game to. Choose C and the installer
will find the correct folder of BG/SI and will ask for your confirmation to proceed with
the installation. Hit 'Y' and the installation will begin, at the end press any key to finish
the installation and to close the installer. Close DOSBox.<br>
FoV is then installed in <span class="highlight"><kbd>C:\Games\ULTIMA7</kbd></span>. SS is then installed in
<span class="highlight"><kbd>C:\Games\SERPENT</kbd></span>.
</p>
<p>
Unfortunately you might run into a DOSBox bug when installing the add-ons in DOSBox. You might
have to rename the file <span class="highlight"><kbd>C:\Games\ULTIMA7\static\usecode.new</kbd></span> to just
<span class="highlight"><kbd>C:\Games\ULTIMA7\static\usecode</kbd></span> (or
<span class="highlight"><kbd>C:\Games\SERPENT\static\usecode.new</kbd></span> to just
<span class="highlight"><kbd>C:\Games\SERPENT\static\usecode</kbd></span>), overwriting the existing usecode file.

<p>
Copy all the files of your floppy files in one folder (e.g. <span class="highlight"><kbd>C:\Exult\BGfloppy</kbd></span>).
If you are using Windows open a command prompt (run -> cmd.exe) and change into this folder
(enter <span class="highlight"><kbd>cd C:\Exult\BGfloppy</kbd></span>). There enter the following lines and press return after
each line:<br>
<span class="highlight"><kbd>copy /b u7disk00 + U7disk01 + u7disk02 u7disk00.zip</kbd></span><br>
<span class="highlight"><kbd>copy /b u7disk10 + u7disk11 + u7disk12 u7disk10.zip</kbd></span><br>
<span class="highlight"><kbd>copy /b u7disk20 + u7disk21 u7disk20.zip</kbd></span><br>

<span class="highlight"><kbd>cat u7disk00 U7disk01 u7disk02 >u7disk00.zip</kbd></span>
</p>
<p>
In that folder you can now find 3 zip files. You can now use winzip/winrar/any unarchiver
to extract the files (keep folder structure in the settings) to <span class="highlight"><kbd>C:\Games\ULTIMA7</kbd></span>.
Also copy the files INSTALL.EXE, PKUNZIP.EXE, INSTALL.PRM to <span class="highlight"><kbd>C:\Games\ULTIMA7</kbd></span>.
Or enter the following lines on the command prompt:<br>
<span class="highlight"><kbd>pkunzip -d -e u7disk00.zip C:\Games\ULTIMA7</kbd></span><br>

<tr><td>
<p>
Modern Windows versions do not actually run 16bit DOS programs anymore, not to mention
that modern computers are not likely to have a floppy drive. So this guide only remains
for completeness' sake.
</p>
<p>
Insert Disk 1 in your floppy drive, open explorer and click on the floppy drive
(<span class="highlight"><kbd>a:\</kbd></span>).
Double click on install.exe, choose the drive you want to install to, and then in which
folder you want BG/SI to be installed to (Let's assume <span class="highlight"><kbd>C:\Games\ULTIMA</kbd></span>
for BG and <span class="highlight"><kbd>C:\Games\SERPENT</kbd></span> for SI).<br>
Next you choose the sound card, but as this is not relevant for <em>Exult</em>, choose 'No sound
card'. Confirm the settings with 'Y' and the installer begins to make noise in your
floppy drive...<br>
When asked to insert the next floppy disk and hit any key (or ESC to cancel). When the
installation is done, the installer will complain, that 'something has put your system
in protected mode...', ignore that and press any key to continue. Again it will complain
that 'your current system configuration is not compatible with Ultima VII!...', ignore
that as well and press 'N' (you don't need a boot disk for playing U7 with <em>Exult</em>). Finally
hit any key to finish your installation. The installer will finish and the game can be
found at <span class="highlight"><kbd>C:\Games\ULTIMA7</kbd></span> or <span class="highlight"><kbd>C:\Games\SERPENT</kbd></span>.
</p>
<p>
When installing Ultima VII from floppy disks in Windows you can run into some problems.<br>
The installer assumes that all drives in the computer are hard drives and can't cope with
drives like CD-ROMs and card readers. It tries to read how much free space the drives have
and if there is no media in the drive it gives an error and you can't proceed.<br>
To solve this you have to insert a CD-ROM in your CD/DVD-ROM drive. If you have a multi card
reader disconnect that if possible (or insert cards in all the slots if you have them). If
disconnecting the reader is not possible you have to use one of the other ways to install the
floppy versions or use a different computer.
</p>
<p>
Unfortunately it is possible that one of the floppies is no longer working. In that case the
installation will fail and the installer might suggest that there is a device error and asks
you to reboot your computer. Don't follow that advice a reboot is not likely to fix it.

Insert the add-on floppy disk in your floppy drive, open explorer and click on the floppy

the drive where you installed the game (BG/SI) to. Default is <span class="highlight"><kbd>C:\</kbd></span>, the
installer will then search in which folder BG/SI has been installed to. This is unfortunately
not working on every computer, for some unknown reason the installer might crash at this point.<br>
If it doesn't crash the installer will write where it found BG/SI installed to and will ask
whether you want to proceed with the installation. Hit 'Y' and the installation will begin,
at the end press any key to finish the installation and to close the installer.
