The version of Ultima II currently on Asimov - I mean the old version,

not the re-release that has the blue border around the map view - has

a bug that prevents the player from ever increasing the "strength"

attribute again, once the character creation process is finished.



To allow in-game raising of strength, use the supplied fixed version

of the "Program Disk". The other two disk images are included for

completeness' sake only and are identical to the version already on

Asimov.



The fix removes a thinko in the code, so it is conceivable that at

least some of the original Sierra Online-issued disks exhibit the same

problem. If you don't want to download the whole thing, change the

following bytes:



Track $6, Sector $F, Bytes $4F and $5A - both have to be changed from

$15 to $14.



Have fun!
