Trying to install razor on Windows Vista Operating system:

Keep getting the No CloLOC message as well as Could not start the client.. Any suggestions??

Thank you

Hi, There are several threads here on the forums about this but the simple answer is Razor by default looks for the UO files in C:/program files/Ultima Online. In the main screen of Razor there is a browse button under UO Data directory. Click that and point it to where your UO files are loaded on your PC. That should do the trick.

Also make sure that the server is shard.uoex.net and the port is 60.

If you need help, pm me in game, Jamkul.

some times you have to change your registry

read this and follow it.

ok this is how you configure the client for the use with razor

ATTENTION:

In order for razor to work correctly you need to add a few
keys to your registry.

If you have unzipped the game folder in your C:\Program Files\
folder, simply doubleclick the C_ProgramFiles.reg in this folder.

If you have unzipped the game folder in your D:\Games
folder, simply doubleclick the D_Games.reg in this folder.

When prompted whether you want to add the registry values, click Yes.

CONFIGURING THE GAME IN A DIFFERENT DIRECTORY

The pre-made .reg files, C_ProgramFiles.reg and D_Games.reg
are there since the majority of people use these two folders.
If you wish to configure the Ultima Online client for use with Razor
but you have it in another directory, read the:
"CustomHOWTO.txt" file in this directory. save this as custom.reg
this will create a registry file.

----- HOW TO CONFIGURE THE GAME FOR RAZOR FOR A CUSTOM LOCATION -----

1. Right-click the Custom.reg file -> Open with...

2. In the list of programs you get, select Notepad.
(Keep unckecked the option "Always use the selecte dprogram to open this kind of file")

3. Change all instances of CUSTOMLOCATION to the path you moved the game foler to.

Example: You have drive "F" for games, and on it a folder named "MMORPG" that you wish to put this in.
You would change all instances of CUSTOMLOCATION to:
I:\\MMORPG

So that you would get lines such as
"ExePath"="I:\\MMORPG\\Ultima Online - Excelsior Shard\\client.exe"
"InstCDPath"="I:\\MMORPG\\Ultima Online - Excelsior Shard"
"PatchExePath"="I:\\MMORPG\\Ultima Online - Excelsior Shard\\uopatch.exe"
"StartExePath"="I:\\MMORPG\\Ultima Online - Excelsior Shard\\uo.exe"

Make sure that you type the backslashes \ as a doubleshash \\ (it's an escape character).

4. Save the file by clicking File -> Save.

5. Doubleclick the Custom.reg file. You will be prompted:
Are you sure you want to add the information in ... to the registry?
Click YES.

note mine is in the D directory so mine looks like this:
