After a whole night (literally) of trying different options and checking files with other releases available for download I finally got that #$%& working...
Step by step:
1) installed UO from Ultima Online Classic Stygian Abyss 7.0.15 installer
2) downloaded the official distro via svn and applied the fix from
http://forums.polserver.com/viewtopic.p ... sic#p17529
3) copied the patched distro to a separate folder, extracted Core rev. 519 from here (has proper boats.cfg, extobj.cfg and more options in pol.cfg)

3.5) extracted Core rev. 614 (this step didn't change much, I guess) from
http://forums.polserver.com/viewtopic.php?f=20&t=4976
4) made sure
UseNewHSAFormat 1 is in uoconvert.cfg
5) in pol.cfg changed
MaxTileID to 0xFFFF and
MaxObjtype to 0xFFFFFFFF
6) in config/itemdesc.cfg added:
Code: Select all
Container 0x1FF01
{
Name SecureTradeContainer
graphic 0x1E5E
Gump 0x003C
MinX 0
MaxX 66
MinY 0
MaxY 33
Weight 0
MaxItems 65535
Maxweight 65535
}
Container 0x1FF02
{
Name WornItemsContainer
graphic 0x1E5E
Gump 0x003C
MinX 0
MaxX 66
MinY 0
MaxY 33
Weight 0
MaxItems 65535
Maxweight 65535
}
7) in config/extobj.cfg changed Wrestling=0x1F020 to Wrestling=0xF020 (to match objtype from pkg/items/weapons/config/itemdesc.cfg)
8) created scripts/include/shardInfo.inc with:
Code: Select all
var SHARD_NAME := "name";
var SHARD_WEBSITE := "website";
var SHARD_VERSION := "0.9";
var SHARD_IP := "IP";
var SHARD_WWWPORT := "www_port";
var SHARD_MAINVOTE := "main_vote";
searched for SHARD_* string in files and in each that had SHARD_* variable added
include "include/shardInfo.inc";
9) copied necessary MUL files via StartHere.bat, generated configs, checked if tiles.cfg starts with "0x1", generated extended Britannia and Ilshenar realms; changed paths in scripts/ecompile.cfg and compiled all scripts
I think those were all the steps to get ALL the necessary files and fixes so compiling and starting POL would not end in an error... Unbelievable... Step 5), MaxTileID, solved the "assertion failed" bug. Hope it helps, if I forgot something let me know - it was a long night and morning ;)
Thanks Yukiko for the newest Core build! I'll copy the files in a moment and check if everything is OK
EDIT:
copied new core, everything works fine
