Hi,

I am having some difficulty with my maps/statics (I think). I would like to use Haven/Old Haven of the britannia_alt realm as my 'newbie' area. The problem is that while the ground tiles are correct (that is the paths, the mines on the south end of the island, shop floors etc), the statics are wrong and reflect the standard Occlo-style houses from the britannia realm. This does not match up.

- I am using Edward's Forgotten Zulu script set as my basis, on a 99 core.
- I have patched UO to 5.0.9.1
- Realms were rebuilt after patching to 5.0.9.1
- Same when running from a clean install of Eighth Age
- Realms were generated to ML specs (from the StartHere.bat options. B.)

Did I miss something? Or do I need a higher version of UO? (And it's MUL files?). Perhaps destroying the existing realm files and MULs in my POL folder, then manually copying them over again and completely regenerating them may help? It seems to me like it has mismatched the statics with the map. Does it use the same statics for britannia and britannia_alt?

Thanks for your time.

Try removing the diff files.
They're named something like mapdiff.mul staidiff.mul, staticsdiff.mul, etc.
They also have numbers for which realm they belong to.

Thanks for the reply Austin,

In the end, I deleted the existing realm files (which I had not done previously), deleted the pol/MUL contents, then re-copied all .mul and .idx files (manually) from UO. Ran the realm generator and this time it worked fine.
