  • @Grugot Are you using CC or EC?
  • -- Labelbars: Similar to blockbars, not much is said about labelbars and it’s possible most people have forgotten you can make them. Labelbars might also be called Stat Bars, Quick Stats, or Item labels, depending on where you are looking in…
  • -- Blockbars: Not much is posted about blockbars and it’s possible many people have forgotten they even exist. A blockbar is a handleless, single slot hotbar. Much of the client runs on blockbars. Your macro list, skill list, spellbooks, and…
  • Grimbeard said:  an unannounced secretly selected closed alpha testing seems par for the course  Yes, it does. There was a closed alpha for Kingdom Reborn in 2006 or 2007.  There was a closed alpha for Stygian Abyss in 2008 or 2009. There…

  • Honestly, I wouldn't be surprised if patch notes arrived later today, or in a couple weeks. -- When you go into character creation for TC2, you can still select Human/Elf/Gargoyle. Are we going to be able to play Elf/Gargoyle races in NL, or is NL …
  • Looks like it might be. It's a "Felucca" only map. Starting Location: Ocllo Gateway
  • What really surprises me is that this kind of stuff seems to just go unabated, but a long-term player and subscriber, playing with accounts that have been paid for (even if they just had the $15 High Seas booster), gets nailed for just standing arou…
  • @TimSt I was just testing this and it's actually running on the C indexing. 'Cause UO. script LegacyRunebook.ClickDefaultButton(0) -- Rename script LegacyRunebook.ClickDefaultButton(1) -- Drop Rune script LegacyRunebook.ClickDefaultButton(2) …
  • Charmed / of Alchemy Runic Reforging – Ultima Online (uo.com) Looks like the one Skett looted has the Enhance Potions. Ron, you might want to check and see if that axe is "balanced" (can drink a potion with the axe equipped).
  • mainmenuwindow.lua line 47 WindowAddAnchor("MainMenuWindow", "center", "ResizeWindow", "center", 100, 0) change to WindowAddAnchor("MainMenuWindow", "center", "ResizeWindow", "center", 0, 0) No idea why it's offset by 100 units as default.
  • @Grimbeard When you use "Equip Item" actions, the location from which the item was drawn is not saved. So, when you then equip the next item, the game doesn't have any idea where to return the currently held item, and drops it into your main pack.…
  • Geez @TimSt it's like you're a professional programmer or something...  Also, I don't know what's scarier, all that code, or that I understood almost all of it on the first read through. *Shudders* That would have been impossible for me a couple…
  • Grim, I believe that with Publish 111 or 112, something changed with the way the EC dealt with stackable items. At least, I started to notice this particular bug about that time, but I don't remember the exact publish. My issue is with bandages, of…
  • Pawain said: @ Arroth_Thaiel It sounds like you are trying to say that EC can use parallel data transfer while CC uses serial data transfer. I'm unsure of the exact description, or method of client/server communication, or how a profession…
  • What Yoshi is talking about here is not a bug, but a difference between software that was written in 1995-ish (CC) to 2009-ish (EC). A significant period of time in software development. The Enhanced Client has the ability to "multi-thread" instruc…
  • Sorry to see you go Garth. We haven't always agreed, but it's always been a pleasure having you around. Fair winds and following seas.
  • You know Kyronix, something else you might consider is an NPC that would allow you to turn in the champ reward for participation reward(s). 1:1 or 1:3 ratio... Might incentivize continued participation in completing the champ, even after players ha…
  • Wist said: This is so annoying that the eggs drop only in the first 1 - 2 levels. If it has to be limited to a level it should be in the last level, with maybe an easter basket of somekind on the champ. Maybe 5 eggs in a basket, or a baske…
  • @Rufus_The_hermit If you have less than 90 Remove Trap, there will some number of explosions no matter how long you wait. 0 RT is 9 explosions, 30 RT is 6 explosions, etc. If you have 90-100 Remove Trap, and your first RT attempt completes before…
  • Yoshi said: "if you say vendor buy, and buy bagball to block rabbit you are banned. But if you say vendor buy and buy cat or dog and use it to block rabbit it's okay." I know, right? Ralph Koster wrote something once, I cannot find it no…
  • Oreogl said: Apparently they do on Great Lakes.   If you’re on GL and haven’t gotten a pair, I’ll give you 5 of them. Oh no, I'm fine on boots. Just pointing out they don't always drop if you have many players. We have about 20 people on P…
  • The boots do not drop every time, depending on the number of participants. I have run the spawn from 1st wave, got an egg, got looting rights and did not Mukluks. This has happened twice. Both times were with large groups of people. It appears the…
  • Honestly, this thing is going to run for 2 months. After a few weeks the champ spawn is probably going to be mostly abandoned, like the rest of the dynamic champs. You'll be able to run it continuously and get 10 eggs each time. What are you going t…
  • I wanted a pair of the talons rather than the boots and this was the only gargoyle I had available, so I ran the champ spawn with her (early in the event, so lots of people around) and got the reward! Total resources used: 3 Earthquake Scrolls 7…
  • Since any real gameplay additions/changes seem to be on hold until after New Legacy, and before Grimbeard says it, maybe you could add Facet specific Cache, Hoard, and Trove maps to the blackmarket? "Arr matey, I do have this one map that is said t…
  • Notes for Publish 68: Publish 68 12th October – Ultima Online (uo.com) Level 7 Treasure ChestsThese maps can be found in Level 6 treasure chests, in the pirates hold and a rare chance on one of the boss mobs.  You will see a few new creatures and l…
  • The actual item intensity looks correct to me @Valeria It's the mod combination that causes so much gear to be worthless. They are technically both 8 mod items, as the generation system treats resistances above 18 as "mod's". So, for the gorget:…
  • Yoshi said: ... How you make such clean pics without even the char showing? I turned off the UI in the EC (User Settings>Input - at the bottom of the list) then walked around and took screen shots. Then spent some time in GIMP copy/past…
