While not exactly an "engine", this Morrowind Mod provides a Britannia that others can use to build full games. Britannia, its cities, and its dungeons are based on Ultimas 4-7. It also features the very large and complex underground dungeons and caverns found in U7.

BritanniaMOD is a total conversion (TC) for Morrowind. It is designed for fans of the Ultima series of games and those who would like to make their own Ultima games or remakes using the Morrowind engine. You may use the mod for your own games, all I ask is you give me credit by leaving my initials engraved in the bottom of Britanny Bay.

The project website (www.cjmcaulay.com) has been down for some time but the author did publish some of his work before the site disappeared. It is now hosted here.

It LOOKS like Castle Britannia...

The Dragon Engine is an effort to build a game engine that resembles Ultima IV or V. At present, the author is no longer developing the engine and the project lacks any kind of web presence other than this brief segment. Litmus was planning on creating a sourceforge page for the engine and transfer control of the project to someone else. But that was many years ago - and several attempts to reach him have failed.

The last release, beta 1.0, is available for public use.

This is an Exult enhancement, currently in development, which will allow one to play Ultima 7 using its current graphics, but in 3D. The images are fairly impressive. For more information, check out this thread on the Exult forums.

More of a framework than an engine, Project Britannia is an attempt to model the world of Britannia within the Dungeon Siege engine during the times of Ultimas 5-6. It forms a base for things such as the map of Britannia, conversation trees, and the NPC scheduling system. Thus, it essentially consists of all world, environmental, and operational elements of a game - those parts of the game that are not part of the engine and not part of the story.

While it is primarily so that U5 Lazaras and the U6 Project can share world elements, it is also made with the intention that others can reuse the game world to create their own Ultima-styled games.

For one who is considering contributing to Project Britannia, there are many additional tools and samples available from their website. The Reconstruction is only hosting the releases.
