A powerful and complex utility, this program allows you to edit every aspect of Ultima 9‘s lengthy configuration without ever having to open the OPTIONS.INI file in a text editor.

An interesting savegame for Ultima 9. The creator has travelled through a fair bit of the map using the fly cheat and finished a number of the column quests (recovering the glyphs in the process) without speaking to NPCs along the way, thereby avoiding tripping plot triggers as much as possible. The Terfin/Bucanneer’s Den subplot has been completed so as to grant the player access to Raven’s ship.

Essentially, some of the game has already been completed (but the player starts on the Britain docks with little or no equipment) but the remainder of the game (a fair chunk) is now effectively non-linear, and Britannia is yours to explore!

A configuration package that puts to shame the limited configuration options that ship with Ultima 9. It includes three major components:

• Game Options & Tweaks – replaces the default options program and allows configuration of all game performance aspects, including those previously only modifiable in OPTIONS.INI
• UIX Keymap Editor – allows easy modification of all key settings in the game
• UIX Starter – reboots the computer and starts Ascension without first loading the Windows Explorer, thus reducing memory overhead and eliminating background processes.

This is a program to extract the music from Ultima 9 and encode it to the WAV format. It also includes the option to amplify the volume of the sound, as this is quite low in the native file format.
