The Offline KI brings the KI and other changes you are used to from Until Uru and MOUL to Uru: Complete Chronicles. It allows you to reach fan ages and Cyan ages converted by Drizzle (from MOUL, Myst V or any of the other supported games): All of them are integrated into the existing environment. In addition, it lets you create and play marker missions and use flymode to inspect ages. It features a lot of KI commands useful while developing and debugging ages. On Alcugs Shards, it also fixes a lot of multiplayer issues.

Installation

Manual Installation

Since the Offline KI installation file is compressed with 7z, you will need the free 7-zip to extract your download. Then download the latest version of the Offline KI. Simply extract the 7z-file, copy the content to your Uru installation and double-click on "SoundDecompress.exe" - done! Please note that the KI conflicts with other Uru patches like Flymode or ULM, so combine them only at your own risc.

Drizzle Installation

To install the Offline KI using Drizzle, you first need to install that tool, obviously. Now switch to the "UAM" tab and set the "Pots folder" to the TPOTS installation you want the Offline KI to be installed in. Then you can hit "Get latest list". At the very top of the list of ages, click on "Offline KI" and then click "Download". Once that is finished, select the "Simplicity" tab, choose the "Pots folder" again and hit the "Start" button to the right of that selection. That will patch some files in your TPOTS directory to fix issues in the original files, and to complete the integration into the existing game. Now just run "SoundDecompress.exe" in your Uru folder and start Uru - done!

If one day the green check is replaced by a yellow arrow pointing upwards, a new version of the Offline KI is available. Just like when you installed it for the first time, simply choose "Offline KI" in the list and hit "Download", Drizzle does everything automatically then.

You can install all the fan ages the same way - just choose the one you want to visit in the list and hit "Download". The Offline KI will put it into your Nexus, and some ages will also get a Relto book. Updating ages also works just like updating the Offline KI.

To update the Offline KI to a newer version, do exactly the same and overwrite the files created by the first installation. It is not necessary to run "SoundDecompress.exe" again.
