Ultima III: Exodus Gold

Overview

https://wiki.ultimacodex.com/wiki/Ultima_III_Gold

In 2007, a revised and improved "Gold Version" by MagerValp was released.

Ultima III Gold is an enhanced and bugfixed of Ultima III for the Commodore 64. The original port from Apple II suffers from a heap of technical problems and has some of the sloppiest code I've ever seen.

Technical Improvements

• Built-in fastloader that solves the long loading times

• Game now fits a single side of a floppy

• Keyboard movement commands now also work on non-English keyboards

• Code for plotting re-writing to speed up the game

• Delete key now works when entering player names

Gameplay Improvements

• The game now asks when leaving a location.

• Active character can be selected with 1-4. 0 returns to standard behavior.

• Now more than one dagger at a time is possible.

• All automatic saving removed, only saves when asked to. Sosaria map also cached when entering towns, thus removing some weirdness.

Cheats

An extensive trainer menu was implemented. The following cheats can be enabled:

• Unlimited magic

• Unlimited food

• Unlimited torches

• Unlimited keys

• Unlimited gems

• Press (T) to teleport (X/Y coordinates 0-63)

• Press (B) to mount a (H)orse or board a (S)hip

• Press (X) to exit combat

• Yell "AMBROSIA" to travel to and from Ambrosia
