xu4 Snapshots Updates
While you’re enjoying your free copy of Ultima 4 from Good Old Games, why don’t you also think about updating your version of xu4 to the latest version? The hard-working fellow who handles snapshot releases for the project updated the Windows and OS X downloads a couple of days ago.
Update: Per Dominus’ comment below, it would appear that the update present in these new snapshots is support for playing Ultima 4 from the ZIP download available at UltimaForever.
(hat tip: Petrell)
Mostly made it possible for xu4 to directly load the zip from ultimaforever.com (three months late ;)) and some documentation fixes for that. The error message you get when there is no U4 to be found has also been changed on OS X (but that didn’t go into SVN yet, since I made that hacky and need a real dev to check what I’ve done).
In other news, if someone feels creative, xu4 could use a nicer homepage…. 😉
