What is SelectUO?
Plain and simple... A free lightweight client that lists and allows connections to free shards for Ultima Online.
How does it work?
SelectUO works by connecting to a remote database and selecting shard data then locally builds that list into the visual format you see within the application.
It uses various decryption methods to remove the encryption from the game client and launches the new client with the encryption removed.
Users launch select play any listed shard.
What SelectUO is not?
It is not an alternative game client for playing Ultima Online.
It is not a server emulator.
It is not a decryption tool for Ultima Online (It uses third party decryption techniques).
It is not ConnectUO, nor is any of its program source derived from ConnectUO.
Where can I get SelectUO?
Launch the installer

Nice, can you modify your bottom link for SphereServer? It should point directly to our home, since that prerelease webpage isn't the best link.

Sure can. Will get to it some time tonight.

Tried this, looks interesting however it pointedly refused to launch the UO client when i selected a shard and stopped responding after a while.

Please ensure that you select the client path under settings... What version of client are you using?
I would do well to note too that not all features are compatible with Sphere. Such as the player count, item count etc.

How do you get that info from the server? Maybe I can help

// UOGateway
// Enable or disable the response to UOGateway pings
// If enabled, it returns: Name, Age, Clients, Items, Chars and Memory
UOGStatus=1

you can just send connectuo packet for retrieve information from server:
byte[] b = { 0x7f, 0x00, 0x00, 0x01, 0xf1, 0x00, 0x04, 0xff };
but this is not returns shard name and age, only returns items, characters, memory usage and clients. maybe uogateway packet returns them too but i can't find the uog packet.
RE: SelectUO - SelectUO - 11-01-2012 01:21 AM
It does not always work, depending on if the shard is using an older version of sphere or if they don't allow status packet requests.
