Hey everyone! I just set up a private UOX3 server last night on my LAN. I then imported the community made spawn files to populate it and that worked fine too. I can connect and play OK, with one exception. NPCs and other PCs randomly seem to disappear when I'm walking around. Sometimes I can still see their names, or in the case of guards, their halbred tips, but they are often completely invisible.
For example, I can log into the server from 2 different computers, and have two characters stand next to each other in town. One may be able to see himself and the other guy, and the other can only see himself. It's not a problem with just one PC, since they both have the problem.
I just downloaded the current version of UOX3 in the all-in-one zip. As for my UO client, I did a clean install of Lord Blackthorne's Revenge and then updated it using the auto-patch.
Well, it seems to work now. For some reason the starting location in Britain is all messed up on my server and NPCs within a 1 screen radius are bugged. The rest of the game is fine tho. I did spawn a bunch of stuff there like nodecay chests and whatnot so perhaps that has something to do with it.
