It’s only been 2 days since the last one but I was persuaded that there was a need for Ultima 9 support and have uploaded a new version of the Ultima Patcher. This adds the new Forgotten World mod, as well as an easier way to change screen resolution and swap between Glide/D3D. I’ve also put in the monster/economy and dialog patches which people may or may not prefer to the vanilla experience.
A couple of things to note:-
Installing/uninstalling Forgotten World will replace your Ultima 9 config (Options.ini) with the FW or GOG recommended settings respectively.
The dialog patch originally came with a utility to rename your Avatar. This crashes on 64 bit systems so I’ve left it out for the moment. On a 32 bit system, you can rename your Avatar by running u9name.exe in your Ultima 9 directory after installing the dialog patch. Failing that you are stuck with an Avatar called Grandor.

So, does this include the individual patches 1.19f and the ones from forgotten worlds without the modded worldmap? I mean the one that fixes Jaana, some music, and a few other bugs but does not add any new textures, or grass or anything else.
I gather that 1.19f is already installed by GOG but otherwise yes. I’ve put a link in to Beautiful Britannia but not included it due to size. I did think about putting in a button to download it which I may still do at some point.

Hey Pix, about that Avatar name utility for the dialog patch, if it is a command line program maybe it could run under dosbox. I have done that sometimes and has worked for me with other programs
Thanks, you are right. I thought it was a tiny Windows program for some reason or I would have tried that. I’ll get that fixed and do a 1.41 when I get the chance.
