New Shard Testers Needed - Adidas-=420=- - 09-29-2013 07:53 AM
NevadaUO is a Sphere 51a server
This server offers the same game play as The Second Age.
PvP and PvM has been left the same but armors and items in game offer upgrades to skills or AR or stats to boost PvP.

To play here download this http://www.nevadauo.com/Downloads/NevadaUO.rar

Looking for old school players to help test and run server.
If anything i could use some criticism or things i should add or remove.

Problem 1: Instructing players to delete their existing UO install, install new then dl your rar file and install it to play.
For me, that's already a no no. I don't want to be changing my game files all the time to try a server out.
Problem 2: You have some files in that rar that are not related to UO engine32.dll, fws.dll and fwsc.dll what are those exactly? They don't appear in a UO install.
Problem 3: Your website....

The site itself looks so old, outdated and in desperate need of a facelift. Players usually see your site before they see the shard, the site doesn't make me want to rush to try it out.
This is all meant as constructive criticism

#1: Im not instructing them to delete anything. Im simply stating that if you cannot connect to NevadaUO, and to insure 100% connectablity you will need to delete any and all UO folders and shortcuts and install a FRESH copy. & then add game files to play, just like any problem you would trouble shoot for any game.
#2: UOengine32.dll blocks 3rd party programs from being effective, fws.dll & fwsc.dll alerts the server of speed hackers and also tracks individual players for rule compliance.
#3: website, It is old and Im the only person that has been working on it since 2001 to now. This site has been up since then (i.e. copyright) Ill give it a update but i believe my site offers more information on ingame than any server i have ever searched... that was my whole goal.
I really do appreciate the constructive criticism and would like more from others or you. I would like to get a few players to help me test everything in game to make sure its up to player standards as well.

Well... I for one would not trust such files...
You should be able to fix 99% or exploits ingame with scripts

99% of exploits are fixed with scripts. This just ensures no 3rd party software (i.e Speed hack, etc...)
