Patch Notes?

Post by Ronk »

During the T2A era, whenever UO was launched it would patch and you would see the patch notes. Granted, this was client side and may not be something we are trying to emulate here.

However, it would be nice if patch notes could be dropped into a popup box when entering the world for the first time after a patch? It could be expected to always check the forums but clearly not everyone does this.

In addition, it could be used for notices (such as the no stool in survivor games) for people who don't use the forums.

Hmm, never knew about that. Is there a way to get this auto display when logging in?

Type [motd

Check the 'receive on login' box

It's set to display as standard so you must've switched it off at some point.

Perhaps, just auto displaying the first time you log in when there is a new patch instead of every single time?

That's how it works now if you disable "Receive on Login"
[14:17] <UOSAPlayer4056> cr3w guild is a joke. Ran by staff members, multi client pking, this shards a joke and a half.

*then.

Than is used when comparing.
A is better than B.

Then is used with time.
A then proceeded to slide his C in B's V.
