Something new, originally planned but unseen in the original Ultima 8, is under construction in Tenebrae, north of the palace. What could it be?

Ultima 8: Exult update:

The Tenebrae city walls are complete after an agonizingly long, painstaking process.

Now there are only 3 buildings left in Tenebrae to build out in the structural phase.

The environment, foliage etc looks plain since that all comes later.

Pics are of course WIP.

Ultima 8: Exult update.

I spent 8 hours straight building the southern half of the Tenebrae city wall.

Designing it to look exactly the same with the same proportions. It was brutal and painstakingly slow to make it look authentic.

Some buildings from East Tenebrae in Ultima 8: Exult. Darion's house and his training hall, now separate buildings as in the original Tenebrae map. Tarna's house, now featuring an armory room. And that weird lake building that was unused due to the game being unfinished.

Work on East Tenebrae has begun. Aramina's house is built, now moving on to Darion's house and training hall!

Which, as we are having some influence from an earlier, bigger version of the Tenebrae map, means Darion's training hall is actually a building across the road!

The map is attached!

Here's a little taste of the palace in Tenebrae!

Who wants a bigger backpack for all their regs in Ultima 8?

The basic layout of Tenebrae in Ultima 8: Exult has been altered to be more in line with the official cloth map of Pagan. So it's a bit more open.

However, we recently found this design map of Tenebrae on the Codex. Thinking of using elements from it to tweak the Tenebrae layout further. Thoughts?

When The Guardian finds the Avatar floating in the ether, he is wearing the Serpent Armor. And yet when The Guardian drops him into Pagan it seems as if The Guardian has decided to change the Avatar's clothes.

Ultima 8 Exult will fix this with visual continuity in the armor. Here's a sneak preview!

I'm remaking #Ultima8 in the Exult engine for #Ultima7!

If you love Pagan or are simply just interested in "what could've been", follow me for occasional updates on this project. Technically a demake, I guess.

Any questions or ideas I'm always happy to respond to.
