I'm tellin' ya - this client has a future - devs provide great assistance :)

@Poplicola: Thanks, I'll be checking every few days your SVN, because your client looks very promising and we gonna use it, when it will be ready or at least on beta/rc stage :)

@Pierce: Well, you have to check this one out. Except this small issue(but it's prealpha, so it's nothing unusual), it ...

I've found what was the cause of exception - in my bodyconv.def

1111 -1 -1 9 -1

After adding #, UltimaXNA loaded with models and I was able to see animations.
Still I couldn't trace into BodyConverter class - I had to put sh1tload of System.Console.Writeln() to narrow problem.
I think there's ...

You may be right about file formats and stuff. I've checked call stack after exception was thrown

Seems like some inline/optimized stuff(why in Debug build?), so I digged dissassembly

Ok, we call some unnamed ...

Yea, that's how I've found place where I get crash...The problem is I can't do Step Into(F11) and see what causes problem in BodyConverter. I made breakpoint where it crashes and tried to Step Into, but I only received exception. Screens below...

Nice project :) I've downloaded it and compiled under XNA 3.1 and VS 2008 .NET to check if it works...and something got fishy. I have exception in Animation.cs - function GetAnimation()

int fileType = BodyConverter.Convert(ref body);

I'm using POL97 with custom body.def and modified animation ...

Aux-connection's are often used to handle critical/real-time mechanisms. From the other side, without proper authentication, it can bring many security flaws(here, I have to mention unpacking errors causing allocation of GBytes of memory - fixed in RC5).

I suggest adding two fields into auxsvc.cfg ...

You can do it in a brute force way. Knowing the radius(r) and the magic formula (x-x1)^2 + (y-y1)^2 <= r^2 and the center point(x1, y1), run two loops like that:

R2 = r^2
for(X = x1-r to x1+r)
for(Y = y1-r to y1+r)
if (pow(X-x1, 2) + pow(Y-y1, 2) <= R2)
; // in circle

Running time: O(r^2 ...

In my opinion, these particular releases (rc4/rc5) were compiled for an architecture not supported by your cpu(Invalid instruction exception is triggered by cpu when it tries to decode unknown opcode). You should upgrade or ask devs for compilation for your architecture(ie. native i386 or else).

That's why POL 97 is a RC, not a stable release...

You can implement it with a PushHook or use SYSEVENT_ENTEREDAREA event with radius 1 or 0. It is already there since Pol95.

Heh...Then I have no idea...Maybe it was a placeholder

You've meant aos-like tooltips ?

If yes...

I fiddled around with servspecopt settings, no good.

I suppose you've turned aos options on...

What about set_uoexpansion("AOS") for your account ?(or better "ML" and use ML client with your ML install).

Are Linux or Windows user ? My 1st advice was for Linux system, but if you are using Windows, you can try typing in shell(cmd.exe)

netstat -ab

You will see all opened ports and the processes associated with them. Then you should know what to kill using Task Manager.

Also check your firewall ...

killall pol

?

Done that already if you mean me.

I don't want to insult you, but simply I cannot agree with your statement that moving from UO:ML to UO:KR is that easy.

You should upgrade monsters AI ie. you can count AI cycles from choosing an opponent to getting close enough to attack(less than 1 tile distance for monsters using melee attacks) or getting clear shot(LOS). When that count will reach chosen value, list creatures in the area(except yourself, your ...

Try to figure it out on your own. I've done some testing and the changes seem to be more significant than a few new packets.

No problem I think you can close this topic.

Please update SVN link to Distro 97 due to the following error:
Could not resolve hostname `svn.sourceforge.net'

EDITED:
pol-distro.svn.sourceforge.net seems to be the right address.

Yeah...but dummyskill.ecl is located inside the package 'attributes'(with .cfg files) and there's no difference between Script :attributes:dummyskill and Script dummyskill - I get the same error.

EDITED:
Changing attribute definitions in attributes.cfg(adding AttributeType and Script lines) helped ...

I don't use POL Distro(I want to write base systems from the scratch) and basing on the Core 96 documentation I have created following files.

attributes.cfg
Attribute Strength

Alias Str
}

Attribute Intelligence

Attribute Dexterity
