UO Second Age

You have mentioned clearly that using files from the disk isn't necessary to play, but if I still have my T2A disks, can I use them in place of the client download?

yeah just install your old UO cd, will work fine. and patch UO 2 what derrick recommended, though u can still play if you patch too high...

Aye. Using the old T2A (or even a UO:R) cd is the best way to go if you've got it. The patching can sometimes be a little touch and go. Patch to 5.0.8.3 using UOAutoPatch in the Ultima Online folder. If you have trouble with the patch, getting repeated failures, go into Ultima Online\patch and delete the patch files (.rtp & .pat) and start patch again.

I have redownloading the the game 5 times now and every time I get a 1335 Error saying that the DATA1.cab file is corupt and the install fails.

My best guess is to make sure you're running the setup as administrator, or try the other download link. I've never come across this problem before.

I went a head and downloaded the manual install version and will try that

ok download installed but unable to get razor to work right and unable log on

You can remove the encryption manually with uo-rice. http://uo.pspace.at/UO_RICE.htm

I followed all of the instructions you posted but I get stuck at entering britannia. I have client 4.0.4 currently.

Any ideas?

I have 2593 port open as well as all

(the origin ports, do I need any of these open on?)

Thanks for the reply

Aye. You need to patch up. Lower version clients have been having trouble connecting lately. Navigate to the folder in which UO is installed and run uopatch.exe

Don't patch past 6.0.0.0, recommended is 5.0.8.3

But anything in the 5.x's should be fine.

Hope to see you in game soon

can't download the file off demonoid. more seeders are needed

I patched too high, but my patch folder is empty, do I just re-install everything?

You can play with the higher patched version. There are some map differences but slight.
