"Added support for 'grport' and 'lfb' Glide options"

I once tried playing Ultima 9 but unless you have the old hardware it's unplaybale. So this would be the perfect opportunity to bring back the Avatar!!

I think GOG would be a good place for the Ultima series. I haven't had a chance to play any of them, and I haven't heard anything about a revival, despite it needing one.

I also got the 1000th vote for Ultima Underworld. Go me.

I'm one of the apparently few people who really liked Ultima 9. Might have something to do with the fact that I've never played any of its predecessors.

Considered on it's own and fully patched Ultima 9 was a stunning, huge, highly innovative action-adventure with RPG elements. I'd definitely buy a GoG version that's been optimized for modern systems.

Yeah also the remainig parts of Might&Magic are still missing.

Unfortunately I doubt that Glide support by itself will convince EA to sign up where all else has thus far failed.

Glide support, you say?

Oi! GOG! Put Interstate 66 into DOSbox! Truth in a box.

Why do you need Glide? WIth 1.19F the Direct3D support is not only on par, but better than the Glide support. UIX works fine in Windows 7 64bit, though it does remain buggy as hell.

Someone needs to remake it in a new engine.
