Thanks for sharing!

Based on your template I made one for "Solarized" theme (dark) with highlighting loosely based on PowerShell, maybe someone will find it useful

Thanks all for the replies :)

I know I can customise both POL and RunUO, I probably could write everything from scratch in both, but I do not want to reinvent the wheel. I've done that a few times and it's pointless - you end up using exactly the same templates and methods as the ones who did it ...

hi everyone, it's been some time since I was last here :)

I'm wondering about the general mechanics overview. The only thing I know like the back of my hand is RunUO's mechanics so I'll try to refer to that with what I mean with my questions. I'm not comparing one to another, I just wonder what ...

An Corp! ;)

Since I was looking for a way to limit characters and since CharacterSlots doesn't support custom values and doesn't even work with older POL releases (I'm working on 095 now :/) here's the code of a simple include file: use uo;
use os;

const MAX_CHAR_SLOTS := 2;

function ...

Care to elaborate on this? ;) I'm having the same problem, but with Polish characters in gumps.

I created a small pack with the basic files to run POL 099 and walk on the map, something for people who have some experience with POL and want to create a shard from scratch. Readme contains help setting everything up. Could have been even smaller, but it is not ;)

I tested it with UO version 7.0 ...

Done! Thank you all for the help, I was able to start the latest distro through the steps described a few posts above. God... I haven't been swearing like that in a really long time ;)

I renamed this thread so others can find it easier.

Check the port in servers.cfg and in pkg/accounts/config/uoclient.cfg and Razor's port.

I got this message when those three did not match

Gigantic thanks, RusseL and Yukiko! I'm not sure why I missed that topic. Changing the packet to SendPacket(mobile, "B90000801B"); solved everything. Geez, finally...!

I'm working on a most basic pack of 099 (something like Distro097_basic in Downloads) with everything set for a specified client ...

I have POL running and I can connect. The problem is, when I log in with 7.0.15.1 client (encryption removed with Razor) everything is black. I can't say anything. Double-click on my char prints "Unknown packet type 0xc8: 2 bytes" .
- I added stairs tiles to uoconvert.cfg (described here: http ...

I have everything in 'pkg' folder and POL starts. I didn't try to connect yet, so I'm not sure how it will work in the long run.

I don't like the idea that some of the scripts and file are in /scripts and some in /pkg. The concept of plug n' play packages was nice, but after some time you end up ...

From that English it seems like Turkish or Japanese :D

My advice is to search the forums for scripts from other shards. Download them and look if their AI scripts work for you

Another step. The "Assertion Failed" error was due to the placement of "attributes" package. I wanted to tidy up my new shard from the start and move packages to pol/scripts folder. Even though I changed the root package path in ecompile.cfg somehow POL couldn't find it when starting up

Works fine ...

Hope this topic helps so someone doesn't have to reinvent the wheel for the billionth time ;)

After a whole night (literally) of trying different options and checking files with other releases available for download I finally got that #$%& working...

Step by step:
1) installed UO from Ultima Online Classic Stygian Abyss 7.0.15 installer

2) downloaded the official distro via svn and applied ...

I tried to delete attributes.cfg and check what happens - the error is exactly the same, no matter whether I have attributes.cfg or not.

I'm running Win7 x64, the core Yukiko posted on the forum - rev 614 and the latest svn Distro. *mul files from UO Classic Stygian Abyss install with client v. 7.0.15

I get this error while starting POL: Assertion Failed: pAttrStrength, mobile\attribute.cpp, line 105
Forcing stack backtrace.

I ...

Huge thanks for the tiles.cfg info, RusseL!

Shouldn't he use MaxTileID=0x7FFF though? Isn't 7.0.23 still a Stygian Abyss client? Won't it make any problems later on?

I actually have to write an "extension" of my previous post. I'm working on a shard now and I'm starting to see the differences more. RunUO seems great if you want a copy of OSI and not much more than that (modify/build on OSI-like scripts). POL, on the other hand is great if you love to tinker ...

099 work with the newest clients, then, as long as uop is converted to .mul? :o

Thanks, I'll check the 7.0.22. Heard it's quite stable

I'm posting my version of UltraEdit files for POL. I added missing keywords and put them into different categories, corrected comments characters, strings characters and function recognising regexp in .src and .cfg, changed colours to fit my preferences, less "flashy". Tested with version 19.00.0 ...

I know this topic is old, but it might help others overwhelmed with UltraEdit's options ;)

Click: Advanced -> Configuration -> Editor -> Auto-Complete -> Show auto-complete dialog automatically

Guess I am stuck with 7.0.15, then. If anyone has or knows how to force the patcher to patch from downloaded files without connecting to EA server I'll be glad for a tip

Anyone has a copy of UO ver. 7.0.23.1, the last one before High Seas? I tried to find in everywhere. I even got the 7.0.15 classic installer and offline patches up to 7.0.23.1, but EA took down older patch servers so UOPatch.exe can't connect and doesn't start patching, even though all the files are ...
