XU4 is a remake of the computer game Ultima IV. The goal is to make
|
|
|
|
it easy and convenient to play this classic on modern operating
|
|
|
|
systems.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
XU4 isn't a new game based on the Ultima IV story -- it is a faithful
|
|
|
|
recreation of the old game, right up to the crappy graphics. If you
|
|
|
|
are looking for a game with modern gameplay and graphics, this is not
|
|
|
|
it -- yet. New features that improve the gameplay and keep with the
|
|
|
|
spirit of the original game will be added.

Note for users upgrading from Slackware 14.1 to 14.2: if the game won't
|
|
|
|
start after the upgrade, see README-SBo.txt for the solution.

Copyright notice: The file ultima4.zip is included in this package. This

|
|
file and its contents have a proprietary license and MAY NOT be
|
|

redistributed. You may download it from the original site, but not give
|
|
|
|
out copies of it yourself (including binary packages built from this

SlackBuild, since they include ultima4.zip).

If you have trouble downloading ultima4.zip from the URL listed
|
|
|
|
in the .info file, you can instead download UltimaIV.zip from
|
|
|
|
http://www.ultimaforever.com/ (registration required, JavaScript browser
|
|
|
|
required, no direct download URL). It's a different packaging of the
|
|
|
|
same content; the script is smart enough to build a package from either
|
|
|
|
release of Ultima 4.
