Produced by: Michael Pohoreski
Releases:
* [drain file 183 url Shapes Viewer] ([drain file 183 size])
* [drain file 69 url Chunk Viewer] ([drain file 69 size])

The creator is unknown (and indeed, there may be more than one), but these two utilities are handy to have on hand if you plan to do any sort of editing in the engine or in Exult Studio.

The Shapes Viewer allows you to view every bitmap used in and . At the moment, we haven’t tested if this program also allows you to in any way modify the bitmaps.

Meanwhile, the Chunk Viewer allows you to view the various graphic “chunks” used to create the Ultima 7 world. This program is quite complex, and is recommended only for those who have an in-depth knowledge of programming.
