Forums[edit]

What is up with the Ultima 5 lazarus forums? They have been down for months now. --77.2.78.11 21:57, June 28, 2010 (UTC)

Already noticed it (sarcasm)? They practically got nuked and will propably be never seen again.--Tribun 22:21, June 28, 2010 (UTC)
A little more info here, at the Project Britannia forums. One of the forums there is also dedicated to U5 Lazarus, though it doesn't have the info that was in the original forums.--Sega381 22:52, June 28, 2010 (UTC)
The sarcasm wasn't needed, Tribun. Be nice. --Terilem 00:22, June 29, 2010 (UTC)

Trailer[edit]

I've added a link to a trailer contaning 3D cinematics that somehow work as an intro to U5. Does anyone know why this cinematics are not included in the game? (Or maybe they are and I have missed them...).--Sega381 03:43, August 12, 2010 (UTC)

Wow, that brought back some memories. If I recall, we made that trailer in 2002 to keep interest in the project alive while we waited for Dungeon Siege to be released. I don't believe there was ever an intention to use the cinematics in the actual game; it was just a fun project to keep the team occupied. --Terilem 04:00, August 12, 2010 (UTC)

Thank you[edit]

Thank you Terilem! That was LONG overdue.

I really need to get around to rewriting sections of the Ultima 1-9 articles and U6 Project someday, but I fear it's beyond me. Dungy 05:35, 24 January 2013 (PST)

My pleasure. Yeah, I've been eyeing off the U1-9 articles from time to time but never get around to overhauling them. They tend to get rather subjective; especially in the case of U9, which still sounds fairly blatantly critical. --Terilem 05:42, 24 January 2013 (PST)
Please! If you work up the guts to do that, +10 Dungy-brand cool points. Dungy 06:03, 24 January 2013 (PST)
Oh God the U9 articles. I still have difficult getting around to continue working on the Dungeon solutions page. The solutions there are really thin, and I still need to add in overviews for about half of the dungeons. At least I fixed up some of the text on the main U9 magic page, but I really think that page needs to be rearranged. It really doesn't match the standard format (of course neither does U9 ;)) - Iceblade 08:03, 24 January 2013 (PST)

Kind of a long shot, but...[edit]

I'm trying to re-play Lazarus but I cannot get through the gypsy's first question. The game is in the correct resolution; Dungeon Siege itself works. I can pick my character portrait and name, click through the gypsy's first bits of dialogue, but when she asks the first question... nothing. I can move the cursor around and click everywhere and the keyboard still accepts inputs, but I cannot pick an answer and advance. I tried to register at the Lazarus/U6Project forums but I cannot get an activation email to go through (the confirmation box says "An Error Has Occurred" AND that a new email has successfully been sent). Maybe I'm missing something incredibly obvious? If anyone can assist with either problem or point me to someone who can, I'd be incredibly grateful. Thank you! -- Metaneira (talk) 17:38, 28 October 2015 (UTC)

I was able to fix it finally -- apparently Dungeon Siege doesn't play well with game tracking software such as Raptr. Turned Raptr off and everything worked perfectly. -- Metaneira (talk) 17:53, 2 November 2015 (UTC)
Thank you for coming back and posting the solution once you found it!! -- Fenyx4 21:05, 3 November 2015 (UTC)
