TheWeekendSlice: I also don't have any idea how to get the GOG provided Dosbox to point at the folder in which I unpacked the original game.gog (this folder is where the patched executable is located) instead of it trying to look for a game.gog image.

If anyone has any ideas, please help.

Thank you!

TurboSnail: Hi,

The file "dosboxULTIMA1_single.conf" should be in your "Ultima Underworld 1" folder.

Since you said you extracted the "game.gog" iso to a directory you can use it to run your game.
You will need to edit ".conf" file to comment out (with a #) the imgmount command so it will not run the game.gog iso.
Next add the mount command (mount d "..\location_of_your_extracted_game" -t cdrom) to use your extracted directory.

This is an example of mine. (I extracted game.gog with 7zip into a folder called game in the same directory)

[autoexec]
# Lines in this section will be run at startup.
cls
mount C "..\Ultima Underworld 1"
#imgmount d "..\game.gog" -t iso -fs iso
mount d "..\game" -t cdrom
d:
cls
uw.bat
exit

I hope this helps.
Thank you for the info. in the meantime I have managed to find a solution as well, I managed to build an iso image named game.gog that the GOG dosbox config recognizes and loads up.

I got it to work by trying a new ISO making program: http://www.winiso.com/products/winiso-free.html
1) I used 7zip to extract the files from the original game.gog
2) I used the online hack patcher to patch uw.exe
3) I replaced the original uw.exe with the hacked one (I had to rename the hacked executable to uw.exe)
4) I built an iso in the program I linked to above. The iso was saved as game.iso but I renamed it to game.gog
5) I replaced the original game.gog with my version of game.gog that contains the hacked uw.exe

Game now works, mouselook works, sound also works.
