Sharky Posted November 10, 2004 Share Posted November 10, 2004 Howdy, the other day, i wanted to play the Atari version of Ultima III, so i use AtariWinPlus, and created up my party and all that ok, but when it came to play the game, I could only move North and South. Cannot figure a way to move East or West, does any one know out to move East or West in Ultima III on AtariWinPlus ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nukey Shay Posted November 10, 2004 Share Posted November 10, 2004 Isn't it the cursor keys? On the Atari computers, the left/right cursor keys are + and * Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zenassem Posted November 10, 2004 Share Posted November 10, 2004 Just redefine the keys to whatever suits you. I believe it's unde input. I myself ususaly use keyset A when playing games. ~zen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goochman Posted November 10, 2004 Share Posted November 10, 2004 Yeah, On the PC its a pain - its * or ( for East and + or _ for west (backwards) - Once you get the hang of it no problems - but keep searching Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharky Posted November 13, 2004 Author Share Posted November 13, 2004 After searching keys so hard, I finally found the West key (Shift/Plus) but couldn't find the East key at all, until i found already a Ultima III keyboard template file (did I put it there or did it come with AtariWinPlus? ) in the Atariwin folder. Now moving is much easier, arrows for East/West. but oddly for North and key for South. Buts its much better now anyway... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deathtrappomegranate Posted November 13, 2004 Share Posted November 13, 2004 I think that it's one of those games that work better on the Atari hardware. Ultima III has been very cheap on eBay lately... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miker Posted November 13, 2004 Share Posted November 13, 2004 Or maybe load suitable keymap for this game (ultima3.a8k) and save few buck & troubles with ebay... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nukey Shay Posted November 14, 2004 Share Posted November 14, 2004 Shift-= generates the + character. It follows that since the asterisk is above the 8 on PC keyboards, East would be shift-8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
