hello,
last week i was very lucky at ebay.
Ultima VI for FM Towns with FULL SPEECH!
And it works fine with a emulator in Win XP!
if you donīt believe it, take a look at ebay for item number
8171772322
my thoughts, now that i have a cd with the voice samples, were:
is it possible to patch or reprogram the original pc-version to use
the samples?
and: is that legal?
thoughts?
comments?
questions?

Good find! I wonder if Garriott's voice acting in U6 is any better
than it was in the Serpent Isle intro?

I'd be surprised if it were, without something like Exult running in
parallel with the original game files. The PC original, AFAIK, just
isn't set up to trigger events with dialogue, though I'm happy to be
corrected on the matter.
> and: is that legal?
I don't see a problem with it, if you own copies of both games. It'd
definitely be technical rather than legislative barriers that would be
in your way.

Yeah, it is nice. Found one there myself some time ago.

Not with the original pc version but Nuvie (a project with a similar goal
as Exult) has a tool to let you listen to the voice effects and already
plays the music from the Towns version. Eventualy it will also play the
voices in conversations.

The music sounds pretty like an Adlib soundcard and is the same as on
the PC-Version
I have a little sample of the intro for download on my homepage:

I agree, the music is definitely FM Synthesis-based. The Adlib is
essentially a YM-3812 on an ISA board, the FM-Towns uses a YM-2612,
which was also used in the Sega Genesis/Mega Drive. The former is
perhaps a bit more musical. >> Stay informed about: Ultima VI FM Towns is real! |

I don't know where and when he recorded it but he did the whole speech for
LB in FM-Towns Ultima 6 and the LB speech in SI's intro.
