Odds and sods

Post by Danno Solo »

Xuri or anybody? There are a few things that puzzle me about this server. Is there a way to get all the shards, items, and NPCs? I'm trying to make a sampire and the necro spells/book won't access. I can't make a female elf necro. I still get transparent houses (ie I just see doors, no floors or walls after I log out and log back in.) Thanks.

Unfortunately, UOX3 is currently focused on the pre-AoS era of UO, and as such doesn't have stuff like necromancy/samurai abilities implemented yet. I'm not sure what's going on with your transparent houses - if you could provide some more details on the steps you take to reproduce the issue, that would be great. It almost sounds like the houses are decaying, but leaving the doors behind? 🤔

I'm not doing anything "special" to get transparent houses. I've reinstalled this server, various clients and they do the same thing with just seeing the doors and objects like chairs and chests etc. The house or castle works when you create them however they disappear when you log off and back on. Also you don't have any special armor like the real game as well. Do you have soul forges I think where you can imbue items? I know you have tweak and that's hit and miss with updating cold or poison resists etc on the status bar. Sounds like this project really isn't going anywhere. It's been frozen pretty much since development judging the lack of activity on here now. It's too bad because the game is so involved and having 1/8th of it is a let down.

If you are willing to zip up a copy of your UOX3 folder where you're experiencing the housing issue and send it to me (xuri@uox3.org), I can try to debug what is happening with your setup. Any additional information you can provide on client versions used/additional tools like Razor, Razor Enhanced, etc would also be of help.

Soulforges and imbuing are features from a more recent era of UO that we don't support, the same is true for any special armors introduced since the LBR era. We currently have dynamic generation of magical armors and weapons as monster loot, but anything other than that you'd need to script yourself. It is not currently a goal for UOX3 to try to support all the features ever implemented for UO, or to stay up to date with current UO publishes - there are other UO emulators out there that already do a good job of that.

Most activity takes place in the Discord server these days, btw. The forums are more a repository for information sharing at this point.

I've installed this on multiple machines and it still does the same thing. And who cares. It's not like this software is going anywhere. Who wants to play 1/8th of UO? And I'm not going on discord etc to beta test a little show off program that isn't most of UO. You claim everything's stable and it works and it doesn't. I'll check out these "other emulators" and see if they do more then this frozen one.

Sounds good. Have fun, and thanks for the constructive and non-passive aggressive feedback. Good show.
