So ok, some people loved UO but it got shitty for whatever reasons and they quit. But all you who have once played it know it deep inside - you can't escape it. It calls out to you every day, sometimes louder, sometimes quieter.
Anyway, through extensive cooperation with veterans who browsed /v/, we found UO Gamers: Hybrid(http://www.uogamers.com), a Renaissance based shard which runs on RunUO. So, some people will start with UO again, I hope, and we can all merryly form a guild and gank people or something, whatever. Here are some easy steps to get you going:
So, are we still ready to go on Gamers:Hybrid?
Anyway, IF THIS IS TRUE THEN HERE IS WHAT YOU DO:
1)Download&Install UO http//www.downl/...
2)Download&Install Razor(you'll also need to have .NET Frameworks for this) http://www.runuo.com/razor/
3)Start Razor, select 2D client and UO Gamers:Hybrid
4)Login(account creates automatically), create char aaaaand
5)Profit!
Also, just for coordination, post which char you'll make!

Dooooood! That's what we ARE trying to accomplish!
But, well, since my UO:R seems to have updated to the German version(WTF?), I'm currently downloading this ML version from download.com. Tomorrow, we'll meet at the server, I hope!

You don't really expect someone to actually be active enough to maintain an IRC chan? I think the 4chan channel will be sufficient at first, just have to wait when those fucking mods will remove +m >>5
Yeah I know, that's why I said we'll see us tomorrow. I have 6 more hours to go, so, I'll just go and catch some Z

Didn't see >>16 when I posted.
A couple other problems, while installing I got an error in the sound.mul file, could that cause any problems?.
Is there any other way than to use UOgateway? I'd rather not have to add another 500MB to a 1 GB download, running low on disk space.
I also checked the forums for Razor, there have been several posts on this problem and no answers.

Ok nevermind the uogateway thing in the last post, I guess they were talking about virtual ram requirements. But now I have another problem, when I try running uogateway I get an error saying "A required .DLL file, MSVBVM60.DLL, was not found,"
Now whats going on?
Name:
Anonymous2006-01-23 20:58
Maybe something to do with VB runtime files? Or maybe that it requires IE to run.
You could just google the .Dll and download it and stick it in the UOGateway folder. It might pick it up.
I just started and I have absolutely no idea what I'm doing. I managed to magic arrow a sheep, though.
NEED HELP!

Okay... now I get the file I needed and can't get gateway to recognise the client.
I haven't had this much trouble getting a game to run since I was trying to run Half-Life on an ATI video card.
Name:
Garath2006-01-23 23:29
Well, after looking at the gateway FAQ, it looks like my problem may be that sound file error I got, so it looks like I get to download that 700MB installer again.
I'll see you tomorrow... maybe...

I'm at -5, but I can be playing around 1700-5, or 2300+1. Can you +1ers be on around then? I don't think you need 4ch- in your name, we'll just make a guild. I'll get on tonight and bust some ass. What kind of characters are you all playing? Just out of curiosity... It'd probably be worth someone having a Blacksmith...

I got a Ventrilo channel on their server for all of us, vent info is:
Host: ventrilo.runuo.com
Port: 3831
No password.
Channel is 4ch, it's right about UOGamers Demise under UOGamers Hybrid. Lots of fucking channels, so find it and you should be all set. Password for the 4ch channel is lolimoot

Well, I'll just think that you know how to use IRC. So, you select the Server "Rizon" and connect to it(if you don't have it, add it: irc.rizon.net port: 6660-6669) and just type /j #4chanuo once you're connected to it

Oh and by the way, news bulletin: We've got our house ready, guildstone is coming next.
So, people, start to join, because the foundation for a 4chan guild is now laid out!
yes you can. you need software like virtual pc and windows 9x/XP to do it.

Uh, I havn't used IRC in a long time.. Is there anything better than mIRC or should I just stick with it?

Just look for people with the 4chan guild tag running around in Trinsic, or contact someone in #4chanuo at irc.rizon.net >>65
80% of the guild are Americans(GMT[-8 - -5]), so you have good chances catching people online

If you've paid/cracked mIRC you'll be fine with it. If you don't want to pay for mIRC use http://www.hydrairc.com/. It'll take some adjustments but seems to work just fine.

Might be better, I think Neverlands is better than Hybrid, but we've already laid ground on Hybrid, it'd be such a hassle to move.
Garath and I are trying to maintain the guild house so we don't lose it. I think the only active players seem to be me, Garath, and lulz. Anybody is welcome to join the guild. If you are new to Hybrid or UO in general feel free to stop by the irc channel on irc.rizon.net #4chanUO.
