Classic Client Macro Editor...would it be possible to improve it please ?
The Macro Editor in the Classic Client, to my opinion, is not even remotedly comparable to that in the Enhanced Client.... it is way inferior, to my viewing....
Question is, could it be improved please ?
At least, make it possible to EDIT (change) macros without having them mess up....
So far, if I have to edit an existing macro, I need to delete the old one and make a totally new one because if I make changes to the existing one, it messes up and no longer work....
Also, why for chained up macros there is such a shortage of lines ?
Currently, a Macro can only have 10 lines, period.
If one was to be wanting to make a Macro that required more then 10 commands it is not possible...
Could it be please possible to do something also here to add more command lines as possible in a Macro ?
But in general, the Classic Client Macro system is quite non user friendly, at least to my viewing and, at least, when comparing it to the Enhanced Client Macro Editor....
Yet, a Macro Editor is quite a relevant and important part of a game, I would imagine.
Anyways, some significant love to enhancing and bettering the Macro Editor for the Classic Client would be welcomed, I need to imagine, by all those players who prefer to play the Classic Client over the Enhanced one.... and who do not want to use Third Party programs for their Macros.....
Thanks.

Please make the Grizzled Mare a 5 slot mount, it's incredibly rare and deserves it. Some of us have been waiting a long time for this simple addition.
I just cannot get used to the Enhanced Client Graphics, likely it is because I have been used to the Classic Client "look" for a good time but anyways, what I would really love is the Enhanced Client "interface" with its Macros and all that, but with the looks of the Classic Client graphics....
I am still hoping that maybe one day it will be possible to "switch" the Enhanced Client Graphics to that of the Classic Client.... like having an enhanced Enhanced Client that was to offer to players the alternative options of either using the standard Enhanced Client Graphics OR the Legacy Classic Client Graphics....
At that point, I could end using the Classic Client for good and migrate to the "New" Enhanced client but keeping the Graphics "looks" of the Classic Client....
Oh well....
What should I tell my doctor, oh wise one, I have an appointment in two weeks.
I rather play the CC because of the art, and they have made some really good changes to the options with instant dress being a part of the CC now. I love to see options that allow us to do stuff like fill a spell book with one or two clicks like they can do in EC. Maybe someday, till then I will keep clicking.

I have something wittier to say but it would go too far. I'll stick with intellectual.
Compare CC without any of the 3rd party program, which I think not many of them are approved. I only know UOA since day one, and not sure even if it's updated.
If its motion sickness in the moving window, then replace the background with CC terrain?
Animal and monster graphic wise, I will sacrifice to let EC follow CC just to keep all above functions. But I won't agree graphics are better, everyone has their own taste.
Just the horse alone, CC is all same graphic with different colors for faction or normal horse. In EC they are huge difference. The CC horse front leg and back leg walk like 2 man front and back, EC looks correct it just need to sync better with background when galloping.
CC swampy is so fat, I don't mind the EC swampy with 6 legs but I think it will run like an Ant not horse. But at least it looks more lean and mean, not fat and clumsy.

You are right, I missed out the most important part, backpack and containers. I don't know even remember how I managed to arrange 125 items inside that small little square.

Now everything is easier: double click. It's a pleasure this way.
I just cannot stand its Graphics SO much, that I stick with the Classic Client even though I know that the Enhanced Client has so much more to offer in terms of movement speed, interface with Macros and all that.
If only there was an option to be able for the Enhanced Client to load the Legacy, Classic Client Graphics art.....
Its not a big deal as I do not ride hiryu often, but do hunt them once a while.
My gut feel is that the achilles heel of CC client is not the graphics, but the 3rd party program.

I would not elaborate but most of you CC veteran players should know.

This way, both Graphics' lovers would get their cup of tea....
As in regards to Third Party users, well, the Ehnhanced Client already offers a lot of the functionalities of some of those Third Parties, sure, not the most "extreme" ones but, personally, I see that as a good thing...
I mean, a few weeks ago, on Atlantic, there was on General Chat a discussion about Clients with obviously some siding with and and some other players siding with the other, and one players who said he liked the Classic Client and, apparently, if I understood it as right, said that he or she was running it along with one of those Third Party apps which cannot be named and that it basically did it to be competitive with those players using the Enhanced Client....
That is, it was my understanding, the point that he (or she) was trying to make is that basically the Enhanced Client functionality was "close" to that of several Third Party applications out there...
While I do think that several Third Party apps used along with the Classic Client are far beyond what the Enhanced Client can permit a player to do, my point is though another, I think that most users, if they can get to use the old Classic Client Graphics with the Enhanced Client interface and functionalities, would have no issue, for the most part, in renouncing to use the Third Party apps which they were using with the Classic Client....
Sure, there will be players who would be losing the "extreme" scripting which some of those Third Party apps out there can offer, but in the end, I would imagine that they would not be such a high number to affect Ultima Online....
Most Classic Client UO players, I think, use UOAssist, that's it.
And the Enhanced Client interface is already quite more "expanded" as that of UOAssist.
Sure, I love the ability to record a Macro in UOAssist which is not possible with the Enhanced Client but, once one can learn how to create a Macro in the Enhanced Client, it is not that much bad....
Anyways, that is at least how I see it.

IMO EC pet models are horrible.
And my eyes are burning just from looking at the EC still shots.
I think that talking about functions all people would admit that EC client is much more useful.
Talking about graphic some people could not like EC, but how can u play high seas with cc? I tried it and it's terrible.
While I still think CC needs updating, I will be fair to critique the EC as well. E.g. For EC hiryu, I dislike the wings... at the angle above they look like weird butterfly wings. But that does not make me vote for CC hiryu. Both look bad.
Back to the topic, As what @popps propose perhaps it would be good if the EC can have a switch to select legacy or EC graphics.
- Dev just need to spend time on 1 client.
EC will remain buggy, and no new functions for years to come.
2 clients will stay.
And we all wasted time to write so much.

I guess popps is right to propose a switch for legacy or EC, but it’s unlikely to happen.
