  • Mariah said: https://uo.com/wiki/ultima-online-wiki/gameplay/huntmasters-challenge/ It is a good page, but it would be even better, if it would show the value ranges (weight, wingspan, length etc...) for the individual creatues. Or at leas…
  • Dixie_of_Chessy1 said: does anyone remember when unicorns 1st came out? for a while there they were literally just white horses then they merged them with that 3d abortion that looks like its made out of broken glass. i always loved the white…
  • CovenantX said: Doesn't siege have a white (and dark) horse?  used to have a menu that had several options, I know monster ignore was popular back in the day, worked kinda like Honor, but it also prevented tamer's pets from attacking you too,…
  • Arnold7 said: you never knew how the macro would rearrange when you moved or added an action Hmm, never had this issue.Clearing and action never rearranged the remaiing ones for me.Also inserting or adding a new action works without issues…
  • ForeverFun said: The simpler way in EC is  ... just drag the instrument (drum, flute, etc) from your main pack to the start of your barding macro.  You'll see a graphic showing the instrument and number of charges remaining. OMG, the most …
  • Okay.That XML I posted was saved by the game. Weird, that the text field was empty...Besides, I don't really know all the object type ids, so it probably will be hard for me to manually maintain that property. Does look like a bug though, if the val…
  • I am using the two actions from the "Targeting" category as listed here:https://uo.com/wiki/ultima-online-wiki/technical/creating-macros/macro-actions-available-in-the-enhanced-client/ I created two macros with those, one targeting an instrument, on…
  • ForeverFun said: "Target by type" -> select instrument in pack "Use Targeted Object"When I put that into a macro and run the macro, I just get a system message saying "Unknown command."What am I doing wrong?
  • Pawain said: All of the affected pet types can be tamed again, so why would they try to fix this, when you can go out and get another one. Yeah, not really expected a fix, like I said, just asked to be on the safe side. After all that cu …
  • Pawain said: Anyone with a pre pub 97 Cu in their stable that they did not train will start at 4 slots now. So there will be many unhappy returning players that have a pet that will not be usable. Yes, just found such a cu in my stable. I…
  • All I am saying is, that taking anything else than your public IP as criteria would render the whole feature obsolete or at least very insecure.
  • TimSt said: I did not say just use the private IP. Sure, using both will keep it unique. Nevertheless, my second point is the important one. Including your private IP from your LAN will make the change completely obsolete, since anyone wi…
  • TimSt said: I was thinking of a more thorough IP detection such as detecting to see if the client's PC is behind a router using something like https://whatsmyrouterip.com/ and if it is then have the client PC send the server the client PC's p…
  • TimSt said: I wonder how they define One IP. My 5 computers are behind a NAT (Network Address Translation) firewall. Depending on how one looks at the network traffic my computers are either seen as 1 computer or 5 computers. Simple:It is t…
  • popps said: It is not the same as mounting a pet. He did not ask for that.He specifically said unmountable 5-slot pet. And yes, you obviously can't have both. Either being able to mount a pet or being able to move at mount speed with an …
  • You can switch to gargoyle, which allows you to fly at mount speed, while having a 5 slot pet with you.
  • I always found the separation between garg & non-garg equippale items kind of silly. It just artificially bloats the loot table for no reason. I would find it much better, if we could just switch between the two. I.e. something like we have with…
  • Ah, ok. Well, like I said, it is a technical issue. This has to be fixed in any case, even if they aim for your solution. And once it is fixed, the question is, why gate it behind skills? I don't really see, how that would improve anything.
  • Not sure, what you mean. My Tamer has 120 Animal Lore and several other chars of mine have 100-120 Anatomy. I have never expericed any passive bonus, which would give me a more fine grained reading of the health bar.If you mean to lore the mob, that…
  • In 2014 there was an endeavor to get UO on Steam: https://uo.com/2014/04/16/greenlight-uo-on-steam/ Meanwhile Steam Greenlight is gone. Also not sure, what changed and why it was abandoned. But to be honest, I still am not sure, if it is a good thin…

  • I just checked right now and it is at least still available on the german store.https://www.ea.com/games/ultima/ultima-online/ultima-online-6-month-game-time-code/buy-timecode
  • That's some very good and detailed insight. Thanks a lot, @PlayerSkillFTW
  • loop said: Some suggestions here, but ultimately they didn't work actually this works for me: ForeverFun said: On my system, if "window_frame" and "fullscreen" are false, and the window resolution matches the screen resolution,…
  • keven2002 said: GGS does work but it might not work down to the hour as listed. I do think that total skill points also factors in when determining the time. My advice here, if resources are really tight and you have the patience for GGS, i…
  • Good catch and very good illustrated with the GIFs! No. 1 I reported 8 years ago on stratics: https://community.stratics.com/threads/item-tooltips-not-updating.335922/So I wouldn't get my hopes up, that it gets fixed any time soon... No. 2 is exact…
  • Grimbeard said: Pay to win maybe but after multiple tamers done the old way whats the fun or even reward in torturing yourself  Having trained two tamers the old way, I can't do anything else than to agree. (regardless of how much I disl…
  • Ah, yes, my bad. I completely forgot about mastery. (And about pay to win )
  • Mostly because certain skills in certain ranges aren't fun to play or you can't even apply regular gameplay to gain. Best example for the latter is taming. At least when it comes to my maxed out tamer, regular gameplay consists of at least 99% of th…
  • AtlanticRealtor said: if you unlink 1 of the master account Thx for the update! How do I unlink a master account? Can I do that in the AccMgmt? Or doI have to contact support for that? AtlanticRealtor said: I dont think you can unli…
  • AtomicBetty said: If they are all under the same account you cannot remove them.But if they are listed under separate accounts you can contact support. For example if you have 4 separate accounts listed under one master account you can remove…
