               ULTIMA (R) VIII PAGAN UltraSound Support.

This package contains an update to add native UltraSound support to Ultima
VIII PAGAN. After installation you will receive General MIDI music
througout the game. Unfortunately there is no digital sound support. It
is unlikely this will be added in the future. In addition an UltraSound
card with at least 512k of memory is required.

PLEASE NOTE: This is a Gravis supplied driver. All technical support
questions should be directed to Advanced Gravis, not Origin Systems
Inc. (TM).

To install this update type:

        INSTALL dir_name <ENTER>

where dir_name is the directory where Ultima 8 is installed

   e.g. INSTALL C:\ULTIMA8 <ENTER>

This driver was produced through the combined efforts of Advanced Gravis
and Aaron Martin. Original AIL driver by Miles Design.

About the Gravis Nodes
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
All nodes are independent BBSs', and are not run or sponsored by Gravis. As
such the logon procedures for each BBS may vary.  For instance, some give
you immediate access, while others have a probation period which may last
several days.  All nodes are encouraged to offer all the Gravis files and
messages to first time callers but this may not always be the case.

If you are interested in becoming an Authorized Gravis Node you may file
request or download GRAV-APP.ZIP from the Gravis BBS.
