Hey Grimson,

If you have time, I'd like to grab another update. I've been busy the past few weeks, and missed the 3.7e download, apprently it's expired (as has my wordlfile I've been informed, so I'm going to have to upload an update as well)

If you could post another build at your convienence it'd be appreciated.

Thanks!

I'll upload a new build as soon as my System is completely running again, as I had to rebuild it due to a nice thunderstorm frying my PSU and Harddrive (the rest survived for some strange reason).

Jeez ... that's some bad, bad luck man, that sucks ... hope it didn't cost you too much!

My insurance paid for the hardware, it just took some time to convince them.
Well, at least it gave me an opportunity to migrate to the x64 version of XP .

Ahhhh, always a silver lining, good to see

Finally a new build is available, have fun .

I plan to upload the next CVS build using 7zip instead of normal zip compression, because that nearly halfes the file size. Any objections?

as long as the software requried to decompress it is free, I'm all for it.



and it looks like it is, so I'd say go for it.

7zip doesn't support linux.

The experimental builds are for windows only, so it doesn't need linux support.

For the DFNs and sources you have to do a cvs checkout and build UOX3 yourself. I can't do any linux builds for the time beeing.

Wait what? I've been running the experimental build on Linux and have had some problems with getting it to find file associations for the js engine, does this mean this could be the source of those problems?

I believe he means the executable distributions. I'm assuming Grimson is in the same situation I am and doesn't have (or at least doesn't compile UOX3 for) *nix.

The experimental builds are actually the best choice for any user, imho. They are only experimental because we could introduce some big issue and then fix it before we make a major release. But anyone who has been around UOX3 for a while knows we are just as likely to sneak one of those massive issues in a full release as we are an experimental build.

Ah ok.

Yepp, but once a vista compatible version of the VMWare player get's available I'm going to try and set up a linux build environment. Though I'm not used to linux programming, so don't expect any miracles.

I can post Linux executables built from CVS if you want. I compile against -march i686 for UOX and glibc 2.5, so you will want to be running on a P2 or newer and also be running glibc 2.5.

In fact, I could just tar up a full release, it would be interesting if it solved your file problems.

Under Vista:

Using the experimental UOX3 causes the Razor client to not be scaleable anymore??

Well that is what is happening for me. Personally i prefer the scaleablity of the UO client.

I think it may boil down to the way it grabs the mouse cursur, as there are other little glitches. Should I try running UOX (experimental) or Razor in Windows XP compatable mode maybe?

There we go, the fix was to run both UOX3 and Razor in XP compatiblity.

Download

I want to download this experimental, but I don't know what to extract it with... Anyone?

You need something that extracts .7z files.

I'm not sure what program I use, but it is a free or trial-based program. Just do a google search for "7z program" and you should get something.

I tried using 7zip.
When I download the file, it doesn't come up in a zip file.
It says All in one.7z
but it's not a zip.
I don't know how to install it...
