* SI BG Merge Patch (449.2 KiB, 56 hits)

This interesting mod for Exult imports the shapes from The Black Gate into Serpent Isle, adding hundreds of new shapes, with a few being repeated for use with The Black Gate‘s usecode.

It is still in development, and still buggy (some in-game functionality may be lost by use of the patch), but for users of Exult Studio this may well be an exciting development indeed, as it vastly expands the versatility of available shapes when modifying or creating maps.

* Traducción de Ultima 7 The Black Gate (3.5 MiB, 62 hits)

This is a full translation of The Black Gate and Forge of Virtue into Spanish. It does not require Exult in order to work, although it can use all of Exult’s features.

Releases:
* Keyring Patch (906.7 KiB, 71 hits)

This is actually a collection of small upgrades to Ultima 7 (and the Forge of Virtue — this is required!). Chiefly, it adds a keyring to the game to assist the Avatar in managing the massive number of keys one tends to accumulate as one progresses through the game.

It also features a number of modifications to the game’s event scripting and a fair bit of custom usecode, plus some other “not so subtle” changes according to the developer, so it almost qualifies more as a remake than a patch…but not quite.

This patch requires Exult.

* Avatar Pack (278.5 KiB, 67 hits)

Another Seven Towers mod, joining the likes of Black Gate Keyring and Serpent Isle Fixes, this package completely re-does the portraits for the Avatars in both The Black Gate and Serpent Isle. It not only provides new portrait graphics, but updated gump and paperdoll graphics for each Avatar as well.

Now you can even play a redheaded Avatar!

* Black Gate Preview (3.1 MiB, 45 hits)

An effort to translate The Black Gate and Serpent Isle into Italian, which was complete (as well, the Keyring Mod has also been translated) at the time this entry was posted, but which has disappeared from the Internet in the interim (at least as far as I can tell). No local copy of the download was ever made, per a request from the Babylon Team.

C’est la vie. I was able to salvage a preview installer for the Black Gate, however. Please note that this project requires Exult 1.4 in order to work.

Releases:
* Patch 1.3 Beta (539.3 KiB, 34 hits)

This project is mid-way through the translation of The Black Gate into Spanish. As with the other translation projects, it requires Exult in order to work.

No word yet on whether we can expect a translation for Serpent Isle.

Releases:
* The Black Gate v1.0 (2.1 MiB, 49 hits)
* Serpent Isle v1.0 (685.1 KiB, 46 hits)

This project, which the developers have completed as of late 2006, translates both The Black Gate and Serpent Isle into Russian. Both patches require Exult in order to work.

Releases:
* Redhead Patch (175.7 KiB, 45 hits)
* Rankin Patch (3.8 KiB, 45 hits)
* Quests & Interactions Patch (294.6 KiB, 61 hits)
* Interactions Patch ONLY (63.4 KiB, 56 hits)

There were a series of four small update patches released for Exult by a consortium of folks through the Wired Entertainment website (which is currently down).

The female redhead Avatar patch is pretty self-explanatory: it adds a female, red-headed Avatar to the character creation menu, and provides the necessary graphics in-game as well, in both The Black Gate and Serpent Isle.

The Rankin patch corrects a small bug in The Black Gate in which the conversation with Rankin could sometimes loop infinitely. This patch requires Exult 1.2 or later.

Finally, the Quests and Interactions patches add a massive amount of world interactivity to the game (more than already exists, which is a fair bit) — you can grind wheat, milk cows, churn butter, shear sheep, and weave cloth. It also provides a few bugfixes to the pocketwatch and to how fishing is handled. The quest patch also adds a side-plot wherein you can return the Rune of Honor to Trinsic. These patches require Exult 1.2 or later.

Please note that you can download the interactions patch bundled with the quest patch, or as a standalone.

Somewhat redundant now, with the development and release of stable builds of Exult, these patches enable Ultima 7 to run in the expanded memory environment of most Windows versions.

Essentially, this creates a wrapper program that enables Ultima 7′s Voodoo memory manager to run in expanded-memory environments (which Windows is).

Newton Dragon’s general MIDI patch for Ultima 7 adds support for MIDI music to this epic game.
