I quietly released Ultima III Gold at Big Floppy People this summer,
but didn't have the time to type up docs and make an announcement. I
*still* haven't found the time to do a proper webpage or scan the game
manuals, but I've at last managed to put the docs online, together
with a download link:

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.


MV,

Superb Effort! This works great on my NTSC 128 with JiffyDOS enabled and running from drive 15. Cracks like this are fabulous!
