Client version questions

[Murmur]

Hey guys,

Been away a while and had some time and inspiration to work some more on my server (outlined here: https://www.servuo.com/threads/my-vision-of-the-perfect-server.3469/ ) and ran into an issue/question.

My server is a t2a-ish/Pre-t2a-ish feature set. I've always used the UO-Origins distro as my server and UO-Second Age server's client files.

Since I've been following ServUO since March 2013, I wanted to see how ServUO has come along since I was here last. So I downloaded the latest distro and installed the Second Age client (all outside of x86 folder) and after doing some tinkering and reading, I came across a tutorial/post that mentioned you have to download the official UO files and patch them.

I absolutely don't want to do this, or require my friends to do this to play. Is there a way around this or is this just how its currently set up to work?

I appreciate the help!

If I'm reading this right, you'll want Scripts/Misc/ClientVerification.cs line 12
Change

private static readonly bool m_DetectClientRequirement = true;

to

private static readonly bool m_DetectClientRequirement = false;

You may also need to make a change in Data/Config/Expansion to set it for T2A

Thanks Hammerhand! That worked.

I have done that graphic work on a 5.0.9.1 client.
