Connection worries

[KukoShaku]

Hello, I've just recently made my come back to UO and Sylvan. My old computer died a horrible, horrible death taking several technicians' lives with it. Now on my new one, i installed UO Mondain's Legacy. I noticed UOGateway has fallen over and ConnectUO seems to as well (at least for me anyway... i keep getting the 404 error). I managed to find razor, though after poking it around a bit it too seems to have failed me. It loads, the uo sign-in screen loads, i enter everything in, hit enter, and it sits there on the account verification screen. Is there something i'm not doing? or doing too much of? Is there another way to connect that i don't know of yet?

Thank you!

Tanth has run into many problems but overcame them and made a handy dandy guide. I have a copy of UO Gateway if you need it. The 404 error on Connect UO is explained in here too.

Yeah, i may have to beg for that gateway copy you have    I got ConnectUO and set it up like it said in the link... though i still get the same result. It justs sits there on the account verification screen. Hmmm.... any other ideas?

[KukoShaku]

YES!! back in the game!! I think it was because i was over patched... i am at 5.0.9 now. I was about 6.0.(something)

Thanks for your help anyway

I'm in at the moment, but my graphics are all funky like and somethings are missing. I am using razor to login, ConnectUO doen't like me...     If anyone still has UOGateway, would you mind sharing?

A link to Gateway is posted here in the forums.  Check this link

I think im patched at 4.0 at the present  makes for some intersting graphics like the Bow instead of flower boxes.

Thank you, i got Gateway and everything is working fine  :-)  I am patched to 6.0.0 and I'm pretty sure everything is the way it is supposed to be. For one, daemons are now redish-orange rather than pitch-black  :-)  hehehe

Yeah, i had that a little while back (before my long absence), kinda made me wonder if there was a mistake of somekind

You can patch fully with OSI and still play on Sylvan Heart with no problems.

hi ll i use ml and uo gateway patched up to 5.0.5c anything above that and it wont let me sign on so not sure if this helps but i get most of the graphics though.  hope this helps.

i know i can patch upto about 6.0.3. after that it kicks and screems at me   
could it be something to do with out computers maybe? becaus ei know i didn't have that problem on my old one

When OSI entered into the 6.0.0.0 patches they separated the Felucca and Trammel maps into two different mul files. Previous to this they were both located within one mul file. SH uses an older client.exe file which recognizes the old map file which contains both maps. It is unwise to patch into the 6.0.0.0 range. It can cause client crashes or not allow you to sign in at all.

Ah, thanks!    That explains a lot. I'm sitting on 6.0.0 at the moment and it's working fine   

Thanks guys (and girls)
