Filed under UW Utilities, Ultima Underworld
Produced by: Peroxide/Telemachos
Website: UGCK website and Viewer website
Releases:
* Underworld Game Creation Kit Demo (20.21 MB)
* Underworld Viewer (84.41 KB)
Although Peroxide has ceased to be, some of their old projects are still kicking around on the Internet. The Underworld Viewer is a simple utility that renders all the levels of both Ultima Underworld games using whichever acceleration mode you prefer so that you can view them and wander through them. It may also be possible to load the level models into a 3D rendering program, if the images on Peroxide’s site are any indication.
And Telemachos, formerly of Peroxide, never seems to run out of ways to keep busy. Building off of the Underworld Viewer, he produced an actual editing kit with which to edit different aspects of Ultima Underworld, as well as walk through all the levels and (possibly, if the screenshots tell the truth) test-play it.

Much like Exult and Nuvie, this project aimed to re-create an engine for an Ultima game that ran on modern operating systems without the use of patches. In this case, the game was Ultima Underworld. and the results looked promising. This engine, like Exult and Nuvie, used the original game data files.
Sadly, as of February 2007, Vividos has stopped development on Underworld Adventures.
I contemplated for a while the idea of moving this remake to the Orphanage, but decided against it for the moment; with Mojito, the remake had come fairly far along, enough so that I’m content to leave it in UW Remakes section for the time being.

Releases:
* NT Patch (44.43 KB)
Windows NT (and NT-derived systems like Windows 2000) are not always game-friendly platforms. Moscow Dragon came up with a patch that allowed Ultima Underworld 2 to run under the NT/2000 environment, and this was later expanded upon by Sir Cabirus Dragon to support Ultima Underworld 1 as well.
