Note: If you do not wish to use UOSteam or Razor, just skip step 4, and do not download their files, this will leave you with a working client to play still.
Step 1: Files Needed
Download the things you will need:
Classic Client from: www.uo.com/Client-Download
Classic Installer: Classic Setup
Razor from: www.Runuo.com/
UOSteam from: UO Steam
Only download the one you want to use, so either:
Razor: Razor
OR
Assistuo:
AssistUO is now UOSteam.
UoSteam: uosteam.com/download
A program to extract .rar files, either WinRar from www.rarlab.com/download.htm
OR
7zip from: www.7-zip.org/
Either is fine, and both are free to use(winrar trial works fine).
Lastly, the shard patch for the classic client: Patch For Classic Client Here (updated 5/28/17)
Step 2: Install UO Classic Client
Once you have the classic Setup downloaded, install it, likely to:
64 bit: C:\Program Files (x86)\Electronic Arts\Ultima Online Classic
32 bit: C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\Ultima Online Classic\
Once it is installed, run it, and let it patch up, the current version is 7.0.30.1 as of 4/14/2013.
Step 3: Applying Shard Patch
Once patching is complete, Use the .rar extractor of your choice(run it as an administrator) to extract the patch file for the server and extract the files to the installation location for the classic client. (Typically, you can right click the patch file and click extract on the menu to extract files, but if no option exists, you can open the application directly and select under File> Open Archive and browse to where you have the patch file, and then you can extract it from the application to the desired location.)
You should be asked to replace files, when asked, say Yes.
If you did not get asked to overwrite the files, verify the location of the installation and make sure they did not get placed in a folder of their own within it, if they did, simply cut them all from that folder, go to the intended folder, and paste them, overwriting when asked.
Step 4: Setting Up Razor/UOSteam
Next, install Razor or UOSteam, make sure to follow the directions for installation and install the runtime files as needed.
Once finished, start up Razor or UOSteam, and make sure the client and data path settings are set to the appropriate location of the classic client as determined above.
Make sure to set the address of the shard to: uoessex.servegame.com at port 2590
Step 5: Play!
once you have the settings verified, you should be able to continue and play with your preferred assistant utility.
If you have any problems with these directions or have trouble connecting, please respond and let me know.
Thanks, and have a great day.
