yeah the france community is mostly aimed toward 68k calcs, but some ppl still use z80s here.
For some reasons I think TI-Bank and Omnimaga should be affiliated together, because TI-Bank is the closest french site from Omnimaga imo

Here is combat in the mountains. This screenie also shows some summoning spells: Kal Xen (summon an animal) and In Quas Xen (clone a party member). You never know when you might need some help in combat. B)
Enjoy!
31 out of 48 spells complete!

I love those graphics so much. Is it me or does grayscale stuff always look better than stuff with 16-256 colors?

agreed, I think the issue w/ color is there are so many different colors. Changing the tone and value of the primary-tertiary colors can really affect the tone of the sprite/pixel art, not to mention the realism and depth. gs makes things look very clear and easily interpreted.
really really sick spells btw... I can't wait to see them all.
Just wondering, are you debugging along the way, or beta testers? Or are you doing a majority of the testing yourself?
Halloween joke!!!

I am debugging and testing along the way by myself. I will begin some beta testing when I reach somewhere around 95% progess.
Joke? What joke? :Oo:
Off topic... I missed Bionic Woman TV show tonight. The funny thing... I do not really care too much. It's not living up to my expectations.

Ranman: Do you have sound enabled on this PC? If not, that's prbly why you missed the joke put up in this topic as well as Pokemon Purple and Metroid Pi. I actually hijacked a few of the post and put audio hidden inside

Lol you <.<
It kinda scares me when people post new topic and put the
icon besides the title, because all spambots use this icon when posting new topics so I see a thread entitled "hi" and think it's a bot until I see the topic :wacko:

This project looks quite promising. The attention of detail is surprisingly good, considering you're using 8x8 sprites. If I had one complaint, it would be the font used in the 89 screenshots. When you look at the 89 and 92 versions side-by-side, the 89 version feels deprived simply because the 92 version has such a great font.
As far as Ultima is concerned, I've always liked the NES port of Ultima III: Exodus. It has more of a fantasy-RPG feel than other games in the series. Might be cool to do a TI port of this version someday. (actually, that may be my next project)

Thanks for the feedback grendel!
The sprites (or tiles) are all 11x11 viewable pixels. Their true physical size is 16x11 pixels.
I created 3 custom fixed width fonts for Ultima V:
- 4x6 Small
- 6x8 Ultima style
- 6x8 Runic alphabet
I use the Small font in the menus on both 89 & 92 versions. I also use it on the 89 version status windows (right side of screen). I had to do this in order to display the required amount of information.
I use the Ultima style font in the NPC talk window on both 89 & 92 versions. I also use it on the 92 status windows (right side of screen). I did this because I had enough room to use the prettier font.
I use the Runic alphabet font in all signs and in some NPC conversations on both 89 & 92 versions.
I love Ultima III as well. However, I love the overall detail (story, graphics, and realism) of Ultima V much more.

I noticed the runic alphabet in the 92 screens -- really nice!
I've never heard of using odd resolutions like 11x11 pixels for sprites. (I wasn't sure it was even technically possible until now)
