Hey guys!
So recently, my laptop's HDD died, and though nothing important was lost, my Ultima IV save, which held some sentimental value to me, was (Insofar as it is one of my favourite games), While obviously recovering it is impossible, I was inteding to transfer it to Ultima V when I get around to play it.
If anyone has an Ultima IV save in which they have completed the game, I would love if they could send me a copy.
I have found a save editor online that will allow me to adjust it so that it replicates my old character (Which was a maxed out Bard named Koala).
Thanks in advance to the wonderful GOG Community!

To be honest, you can get a save suitable for transfer by doing the following:

1. Start a new game. Mage is a good class because of spell points.
2. Make your way to Hythloth via the back of Castle Britannia. Once there, cast eXit, re-enter the dungeon, and touch the orb. (You will game over, but that's OK.)
3. Repeat step 2 until your stats are maxed out.
4. Become an avatar (or else you won't be one in Ultima 4). If you are going to skip Ultima 5 and go straight to 6, you can skip this step.
5. Transfer the character. The transferred character will have 25 in all stats. (Of interest, a stat of 70, I believe, will become 30 on transfer (even though 50 is the cap in 4), and anything higher will be rejected by the transfer program.)
