Ultima 9 Patch v1.18f
Ultima 9 Patch v1.18f

The last official patch for Ultima 9 released by Origin Systems.

This was the last of the patches Origin Systems released for Ultima 9, and the only one worth hosting for download. It corrects a lot of the bugs that plagued the game, removed many plot-stopping errors, and offered marginal improvement to the game’s Direct3D graphics performance.

It is highly recommended that you install this patch if you plan to play Ascension. Indeed, this patch should be considered the penultimate step in an Ascension installation, provided that the game is being installed from discs released prior to the month of February in the year 2000. (Late-release Ultima 9 discs already have the patch applied.)

    Are the links broken? None of the mods or patches want to download

      Seems I need to update a few of the links; they didn’t automatically flip over to HTTPS, and are stuck on HTTP. I just tried a download here in Edge, and it grabbed the file…but I had to manually click to approve the insecure download.

    • WtF Dragon says:

      Well, let’s start with some basic details: OS version, what patch level the game is at, where the game was installed from, and are you playing it in DirectX or Glide mode?

    Hey, thank you for your reply, I solve this problem for myself. But now I have another problem, when I try to sail to Trinsic with the ship. The game crashed when I try ):

    • WtF Dragon says:

      Ok. Well, same question set would apply.

      One of the larger “problem spots” in the game is transparent textures, which you do encounter when sailing. (Moonglow too.) Depending on your hardware, patch level, and graphics mode, you may find things more of a struggle in this regard.
