HOW CAN I DOWNLOAD THE GAME!?!

I want to get the Ultima 7 & 8 on this site, but there is no link in the page to download the file!

CLICK HERE FOR A LOOK!

When I went to that page, it says uploaded by Freddy, but where can I download it? There's no link, no button, nothing~!

Do I need to register to the site? Log-in to make a "download button" appear? Or is it written in a font too small for the naked eye?

Okay, I won't insult your intelligence, but the ESA No-Go! Button speaks for itself.
If you don't know what the ESA is, then you should at least understand No-Go!
You won't find a chance of downloading it here, or receiving a link.

Feel free to browse through the other games (There are tons of them, many of them are great) and download the ones that aren't ESA protected.

Or try other sites that have these games for download unlike this one.

But be careful - there are sites there that are offering it - but shouldn't! :angry:

Well, I have a different problem from any listed so far. I've been playing the game for about two days now. I am running it in DosBox, speed is good, no problems getting it to run. I'm enjoying it quite a bit--even the jumping isn't all that bad.

However, I have just hit the second spot in which the game completely locks up. The first time was in the Palace Dungeon as soon as I read Bendic's diary, which was in the evidence room. Restored, played around with DosBox, did some different things in the game, went back and BAM! Same thing. Looking at a walkthrough, apparently I am supposed to be arrested here by three guards, so I think that it's locking on an animation .

Temporary fix was to not read the diary and play around that plot line. Unfortunately, it's just happened again when I finally meet Lithos in the Hall of the Mountain King. This is especially irritating because, if you've played the game, you know that if you miss the side passages and go straight through, you get teleported back to the beginning and have to go through the caves (and the jumping bits) all over again.

I missed the side passages. This is a bad thing. :ranting: :ranting: :ranting:

So after hours in the caves, I finally run panting through a gauntlet of ghouls and skeletons. Lithos appears, I made it, I'm happy--and the game locks up. I'm thinking another animation is the trigger.

I doubt anyone can help. If you have a suggestion, I'd love to hear it. At least I got it running and had some fun with it. I don't know if anyone here has played far enough through recently to know if this is a common problem.

Wow, this is a long post. Well, if it helps anyone else--do not, and I mean do not, step on the giant rune stone in the caverns until you have found Lithos. Limecat was fit to be tied.

Oh, one more thing.

Everyone having problems with the speed, don't use the CTRL-F8/F12. It just makes it choppy. Instead, try using the DosBox Config. Change the line reading cycles=(number) to at least 10000 or 11000. I have it on 13000. Then Save and Run.

I also think the game has a memory leak so if it begins to lag, exit and restart.

??? :eeeeeh: ???

the dosbox.conf file?

:whistle:
I'm an idiot, I know...

If you're using DosBox 0.63, it should be in your program bar so Start-Programs-DosBox-0.63-DosBox.conf. The config file will open in Notepad. If it isn't on your bar, then look for dosbox.conf in your DosBox folder and open it with Notepad. As always, make a backup of the original before editing it.

Another thing I changed was to run it fullscreen. Just change the fullscreen=false attribute to true.

I figured out my problem with the locking up. It has something to do with the speech pack. So right before I hit the problem spots, I turn everything off in the Options (just to be safe). No music, no sound effects=no problems. Once I've gotten past the point and saved, I turn them back on again.

Limecat is very happy. LOL

Who needs, will find, no matter how others like you think about it. The matter of legality or not is up to everybody self to resolve. As long as there are sources, there are people who use them. Ever tasted rotten vegetables yourself?
