  • 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 …
  • Imbue "poison elemental slayer" on your weapon for deceit. Leave undead slayer talisman equipped. It's been requested several times to add "lesser" slayer variants as cameo drops.
  • Most people will likely agree UO still exists today as it's has a "persistence" characteristic, and an expectation that things don't just get deleted for unexpected reasons.  Scrolled and trained pets represent an investment (time to train, acquirin…
  • @Mariah An accurate time source (link) can always be helpful.  If you have a channel to the developers, they can probably confirm the back-end values very quickly (or a good research project for the newest team addition?)  Or bring back five-frida…
  • While publish 114 greatly reduces the cases where following undead get deleted, I've observed these cases: Two following undead were deleted when exiting the deceit dungeon (on foot) to the artifact trader.  Both were at or near full health and fol…
  • If the UO staff wants to contact me via PM, I can show you what and where this happened, using the exact pet, on TC1. I have several copies of the character and the stables, including the deleted pet. (the character was copied there several times be…
  • The vile arch lich's army came, quickly fell, and decided to nap for the evening to re-group.
  • The thread you link to Mervyn makes a claim there is no cap.  Other elements of that thread appear to provide display fixes not encompassing anything relative to reflect physical damage.  There is no comment from the UO dev team, or changes that we …
  • Radst said: Spawn rate is too slow. Every level should look at an active Champ Spawn  Yes, it's more like it's a champ spawn spread out over an entire dungeon.  Running around most of the time looking for stuff to kill not so fun. kev…
  • Yoshi said: “New talisman Divinum Luminous doesn’t appear to work properly. Talisman has 15 reflect physical damage (which is not capped at 100), this puts most reflect physical damage suits to over 100. Most common physical damage hit recei…
  • If somebody wants to re-imburse me a change token for the male wraith character, as a temporary work-around, that would be fine. Female chars do have more armor choices, better off against semidar.  But, they are more susceptible to being naked in …
  • Make all the prior reward books craft able.  recipes, transcendence, powerscroll books, etc.  Make the jewelry box craft able too.
  • ForeverFun said: Didn't you also post a request/observation asking for one targeting cursor not to interfere with another targeting cursor? Yoshi said: “don’t recall any such request. It was actually your observation that [au…
