hack4u is a program to “edit the save games of Ultima 4: Quest of the Avatar for the NES.” Any or all of the three games saved in the SRAM file (I trust that NES users who will be interested in this program know what that means) can be edited.

Releases:
* Ultima 4 Map Editor (75.2 KiB, 134 hits)

A utility to edit the graphic tiles in Ultima 4. Requires EGA graphics and the original shapes.ega file.

Releases:
* Ultima 1, 3, 4 & 5 Cheat (19.2 KiB, 353 hits)

A cheat program that can be used for Ultima 1 through to Ultima 5 (but not, according to its name, for Ultima 2).

Note: this update may not work with Ultima 3, and may also be missing the strength attribute. This has been found to be the case in DOSBox, at any rate, although at present it is not known whether the error is within the program proper, or whether it is in some way related to DOSbox.

* Replacement for avpatch (7.6 KiB, 197 hits)

Nodling explains: “You can’t install the Ultima 4 Upgrade under DOS, because avpatch.exe is a Windows console application. The new avpatch.exe can be run in DOS, Windows and DOS emulators.”
