Re: Some questions for an unsure/uncommitted player

It's funny sometimes how fast things can progress.

Since my last post I'm now in a guild and a co-owneer of a house.


This has definititely been the most interesting MMO experience I've ever played :D

And I've partly been able to get past the whole telepad issues with Mark/Recall runes.

Re: Some questions for an unsure/uncommitted player

Yeah, I was fortunate enough to receive an offer to join ETA, but something went wrong, and I ended up on the completely opposite side of the continent. So joining ETA never happened. But luck would have it that Michiko sent me a message asking to meet with her and all her friends. We sat around, dr...

Some questions for an unsure/uncommitted player

1. Is this mostly an "end-game" server? I ask as I've played on a similar server before (an EQ emu) where the low-mid levels had virtually zero population, and the population seemed to be dominated by the top 10% of long term gamers. I like sociable games, where being in parties and inter...

Re: Can't log in, Invalid credentials.

Australian ISP's use dynamic IP's. So you're unlikely to get the same IP from the same person.

Re: Australia/New Zealand/Oceania players

Ok, here goes. Finally managed to login in using a reversed username, and overall... I'm really, really, overwhelmed. The sheer size, scale, depth, and amount of detail that has gone into this server is incredible, and I can see why it's as popopular as it is. But at the same time for someone as sim...

Re: Can't log in, Invalid credentials.

I created the ozneB account and within 10 seconds was in the game. No dramas at all. Retrying to login in to my original Benzo account comes up with the same "lack of credentials" nonsense. Considering how much mess I've made already would probably be best if I leave before things get any ...

Re: Can't log in, Invalid credentials.

It's not likely to be that, I checked earlier and the benzo account name is brand new, with no characters - which would imply it's the one you've tried to make. I'd have mentioned it if I suspected that. Well that's a real mystery, because I made a new account with a reversered username "ozneB...

Re: Australia/New Zealand/Oceania players

There are PvP events that are staff run. Capture the Flag, Hunger Games, and one of my favorite "Kill the staff!" events are all PvP. The difference between these events though and "normal PvP" on severs where PvP is a main thing is kinda like the difference between a "Figh...

Re: Can't log in, Invalid credentials.

Yeah I've tried all that. UO isn't exactly a modern program, so I've always set it for compatibility mode. did the HKLOCAL registry install as advised, and it installed according to the rest of the walkthrough. (Note: I found the HKLOCAL registry can't be done with WIN98-14*whetever, as it won't exe...

Can't log in, Invalid credentials.

I'm trying to login using the username and password I chose to open the account.

Username: Benzo
PW: **************


But for whatever reason it keeps saying "Your account credentials are invalid. Check your ID and password and try again."

Australia/New Zealand/Oceania players

Hi, TL:DR at the bottom I got first my dose of ultima with Ultima 7 way back in '97 (still play it now using exult - fantastic program, just wish a huge team would expand on it and turn it into something amazing). I was part of a UO shards server back in '99-'00 (forgte the name, but it was one of t...
