NAME
       exult - an engine for running Ultima VII

SYNOPSIS
       exult [options]

DESCRIPTION
       Exult is an engine built for running Ultima VII. It started its life as
       a map-browser for Ultima VII and has evolved from there, thanks to  the
       open source-model and contributions of time and code from many people.

       You cannot use Exult without game data files. At present, the only fin‐
       ished games are Origin's Ultima VII: The Black  Gate  and  Ultima  VII,
       Part  2:	 The  Serpent Isle. In any case, both Ultima VII's are some of
       the best computer Role-Playing-Games made to  date.  Check  your	 local
       computer dealer's bargain bin or an online auction site. Ultima VII can
       still be purchased for only a few dollars. Run out and buy it!

       There is a world editor available to create your own games: Exult  Stu‐
       dio. Check the exult homepage (URL below) for more information.

OPTIONS
       -h, --help
	      Show the available command-line options

       -v, --version
	      Display (detailed) Exult version information

       -c configfile
	      Specify an alternate configuration file to load

       --bg   Skip the main Exult menu and run Black Gate

       --si   Skip the main Exult menu and run Serpent Isle

       --nomenu
	      Skip the game menu for BG/SI

       --buildmap type
	      Create  a	 fullsize  map of the current gameworld.  If type = 0,
	      paint all roofs. If type = 0, skip second-floor roofs. If type =
	      2, don't paint any roofs. You also need to specify --bg or --si.

       --nocrc
	      Skip  the	 CRC check of the .flx datafiles. Only use this if you
	      modified them yourself without recompiling exult

       NEED this configuration file to set up and run the game).
