Ultima 6 Project - The False Prophet - Follow Up to the Recent Update

Zephyr has sent us a follow up to the update post we made last week. Here it is for your reading pleasure.

Just a quick update to let everyone know we're still alive. Sorry
that we have not kept the news up to date. The U6 Project has
primarily been working on their content, and they are finishing up
what they're calling M3 Part 1 as we speak. No timeframe has been
announced, but most of the content is in place and is being tested.

Frilly Wumpus has been busy working with WyrdWeb on revamping the
Project Britannia conversation system to use what's known as Usecode.
This is a more complex and extremely flexible way of editing NPC
conversations. This will allow a whole host of new quest concepts to
be implemented, plus a bunch of new, fun features.

The U6 Project still looking for people conversant with the Siege
Editor to help us finish up their content. That is their main
blocking item. All the technology is in place; they just need people
to help finish building the world. They also still need portrait
artists.

Stay tuned! We are very much still alive and kicking.

Isn't it funny that this project has me more interested in than all the upcoming crpg games combined? Only thing makes me a bit hesitated is DS engine. That pos left a terrible taste in my mouth. Anyway, keep up the good work and looking forward to see their end project.

DS was terrible, but if you played Lazarus (the brilliant U5 remake) you'll know that there is NO similarity between these games and the original DS!!

That is an important thing to note! You can get DS really cheap now, and you never have to play it!
