  • Pawain said: Tell me step by step what to do to make your theory trigger.  But spending 20 mins on a floor while getting drops does not trigger anything for me or others on LS. If you aren't getting impacted by things covered in this th…
  • Pawain said: And only players in EC get time outs? Not true.  CC also gets a drop message. ForeverFun said:If you recall to a new floor in the dungeon after getting an artifact drop, you should generally be OK.  If you miss the notification t…
  • Pawain said: ForeverFun said: The notion this is being triggered by players paging is 100% nonsense.  That's based on my own observations.  So how is it done?  It is not from standing afk with a pet or without. What are your observ…
  • In reading the last meet and greet notes, one of the few sensible replies was somebody saying they wouldn't tell you how the logic works.  Your bank won't tell you how the fraud detection logic works, when it goes awry when making a $2 purchase at a…
  • This seems a dupe of the thread here: https://forum.uo.com/discussion/11584/afk-out-of-control There's an important detail in a reply in that thread, if you read closely. Expanding on that, in deceit, perhaps people should recall to a new locatio…
  • Mariah said: Apologies. the 'found on' section of the magic items properties page was edited at Mervyn's request. I took it on trust that his information was accurate. I will edit. @Mariah, can you check with the developers first, to rule…
  • If you recall to a new floor in the dungeon after getting an artifact drop, you should generally be OK.  If you miss the notification text regarding getting a drop, and you're using EC, see this thread (link). It's quite possible the GM's don't eve…
  • Pawain said:  During the lock down process it counts the items inside. A few things: The statement above is not true.  If you release a full (500 jewels), in a house that is at/near capacity, there is no problem re-securing said jewe…
  • A wild guess, in EC textparsing.lua, 1063357 may notify you of what you want. 1112472 also popped out of the RNG.
  • Pawain said: Should we also reduce the amount of BODs in a BOD Book?  Not easy to carry a full one that is 125 items. Are you not intelligent enough to stop at 125 items since this would solve YOUR issue. You are welcome to file a bug "or…
  • Pawain said: Not a bug. They were designed like this. You can stop at 125 items if you prefer that cap. This is not the make UO conform to my play style forum. I'd label this one a "usability bug", with no obvious user friendly work-around…
  • dvvid said: ForeverFun said: In EC, Actions -> Other -> Export Items to File does 90% of what you are asking. So you have a list of all of the items but then need to scan the list and compare it with you still have on the ven…
  • Lord_Frodo said: ForeverFun said: Lord_Frodo said:Why are you running DX9 when DX12 is out. Is your question really "why is UO using DX9 when DX12 is out?".  That would best be directed to broadsword. The DirectPlay links are …
  • Lord_Frodo said:Why are you running DX9 when DX12 is out. Is your question really "why is UO using DX9 when DX12 is out?".  That would best be directed to broadsword. The DirectPlay links are interference / red herring in nature: "DirectPl…
  • In EC, Actions -> Other -> Export Items to File does 90% of what you are asking.
  • This is an nVidia 3000 series card, I don't think it's a user problem - it's a generic issue manifesting elsewhere for other people too. Asking others to check for the problems may not produce much feedback, as users may not know what to look for. …
  • Win10, supported directX major version is 12 (12.1). The message implies the EC UO client is using certain DirectX9 functions. The nVidia forum post implies nVidia may be / may have deprecated certain DirectX9 functionality.  Other posts suggest t…
  • If you're talking about  Niporailem the thief, my guess is your backpack is going over > 125 items.  due to sand/fake gold/etc. If you cast recall without holding a mage weapon / shield, the item(s) are force unequipped, and overflows the usual …
  • It'd be appropriate to fix the underlying issue causing client / server crashes.  It's unlikely that whatever may be causing what you've stated is unique to releasing large numbers of undead followers. It wouldn't be appropriate to band-aid try to …
  • Area effect spells or capabilities that hit you from paragons can cause a re-target.  That's usually why proximity of a few spaces helps.
  • So by this logic, discordance and provocation (non mastery songs) should also be cancelled if current "visual" line of site is broken, too? Let's not forget the complaint that mounted pets keep discord up when in range too? Beyond keeping this to …
  • Line of site checks as it stands now can be very broken and produce unexpected failures. So I'd suggest any change related to masteries and checks using the current LOS system to be FEL only.  Otherwise, it's very frustrating for "legitimate" playe…
  • You can enable timestamps in the EC log. It'll show you the time the client sees the "Kal Vas Flam" casting system message that comes from the server.  For the "This might actually be a server bug, " part of my reply above, the server starts castin…
  • I didn't see something like this: "we don't understand your question, can you elaborate?" "can you provide a pointer to more info?" "we disagree, can you expand on that?" Simple replies like that can move the ball forward in customer service scenar…
  • Some additions and revisions: First the two odd ball cases: Fifth circle Blade spirits should be 5.5 seconds (total).  Faster casting reduction ~0.75s per FC (up to 2 / 1.5s). Fifth circle summon creature should be 9.00 seconds (total).  Faster cas…
  • TimSt said: You can get various elemental slayer talismans from doing the crafting quests in heartwood.  These are the "xxx killer" talisman you are referring to, correct? I tested some of those a while back, and I think they only go to m…
  • Assuming the UEV is weakest poison, and best slayer is air elemental, go with 100% poison dmg weapon w/air elemental slayer on weapon.  I usually make special purpose weapons for one target too. If memory serves, you would get no benefit using a su…
  • I go the route of having already built "lesser slayer" versions of weapons on hand, and don't re-imbue.  Fire elementals are a pushover relative to poison elementals in deceit, why I'd prefer "poison elemental" over "elemental" if forced to choose. …
  • The crux of the issue here is pets being deleted in error, and no apparent replies via multiple communication attempts relative to reproducing the problem (or otherwise).  Who reports issue, gender, whether they are joined twins, etc, is really no…
  • Pawain, the meet and greet "email us....".  Whether I'm the same person as in the meet and greet isn't really relevant, is it?  I've clearly tried to reach out regarding this posted message here, and receive no reply. I'd at least expect some kind …
