RunUO is over!!!

RunUO is over. Official team abandoned it after version 2.3. Mark Sturgill, after take the reins for a while, officially abandoned it at version 2.6, with a few updates to 2.7 beta. So, and now? Mark Sturgill have recommended move to ServUO. I also recommend. You will not need Nerun's Distro for ServUO, it already have a Create World gump plus XMLSpawner by default.

• ServUO community

Just in case you still want to use RunUO to run shards of Ultima Online Classic Era, you can try this fork I made from RunUO. Basically I just updated to remove some annoying warnings and to be able to run it with Mono 5.18+ on Linux.

If you want to try a RunUO experimental fork, with a strong .NET 5 foundation and excellent performance, you can try ModernUO. But don't use it to run a shard, it's still in development. But it deserves a look.

Installation

Take it easy here! You should choose the installation in accord with your RunUO version.

Installing on RunUO 2.3

1. Copy folders inside "Distro" folder and paste them inside your RunUO folder (overwrite);

You need both folders! But copy and paste folder "Distro" 1st, then "2.3" over "Distro"!

2. Then click Apocalypse now.
3. Now click Let there be light.
4. Now Select Spawns by Expansion. There are 3 options: Classic Spawns (pre-ML era), Mondain's Legacy and KR, SA and HS era.
5. Read tutorial inside 7-ZIP file for more details and learn how to become an "advanced user".

Troubleshooting with Linux and Mono

ALWAYS use the latest Mono version, and ALWAYS download it from Mono Official Download page.

DON'T use Mono version in Debian repositories, it's OLD! Use anything above version 5.10!

Sometimes you can have problems when running RunUO after properly compile the server. If you receive any error message related to a "libz" missing, install these libraries:

zlib1g
zlib1g-dbg
zlib1g-dev

In Debian Linux it's easy, just go to terminal and:

sudo aptitude install zlib1g zlib1g-dbg zlib1g-dev
