Ultima Online
 

How can i get ultima online installed from the downloaded version installer? (my other cds have long since been lost , but the other day there was an offer to let you download Age of Shadows for free if you had already played or somthing) Ive tried running it with winex3, it seems to extract everything and then fail. If somehow i could find out where its being extracted to maybe i could run the 2d installer exe directly and it would work ?

Well i had a brain wave. I extracted the exe in windows using winzip, and then burned it onto a cd. Then booted back into linux, and installed it from there.

It seems to run and patch fine, problem is i play on a sphere server so i need to use client 2.0.3 but when i winex3 that, it doesnt show any graphics :o. any ideas / anyone got it working themselfs ?

Tried using wine rather than winex and its running Hurrah! Sound isnt working now unfortuneatly though :(

heres the error

wine "C:\Program Files\Ultima Online 2D\client.exe"
fixme:dsound:IDirectSoundImpl_SetCooperativeLevel level=DSSCL_EXCLUSIVE not fully supported
err:dsound:DSOUND_MixOne underrun on sound buffer 0x4040ddc8

err:dsound:DSOUND_MixOne underrun on sound buffer 0x4039d1d8

still get the error, but i get sound too now :)

lol :) gj. you got it working all by your self :) congrats

I don't have windows and i really would need to get UO installed too, i have the AOS.iso mounted to /mnt/drive-c and i downloaded a perl script (install.pl ) which is used to install but it need to have a cd mounted, and i can't get it to start the install :/

For aos, i think winex worked best, i had to use wine for the old client my shard used. But to install with winex just run the 2d installer exe with winex. I cant remember the exact file name or anything because im at college. I do remember that it doesnt work with the main setup program though, you have to use the one for 2d directly.

hi;

kzar, i am having the same "underrun on sound buffer" when trying to run Half Life with wine. I get sound but its very poor quality and laggy. I was wondering what you did to fix this.

It was a while ago and i cant remember specifics, but i had to enable / disable an option in the config file for wine. sorry i cant be any more helpfull.

not a problem. though do you think you can post your config file so I can compare it to mine?

Thanks.

sorry no, i formated so many times since then, i havnt got it any more.
