I'm trying to look at some previews of UO Architect maps and I keep getting the following error.
I've tried it with the client location entered by hand and using the registry and both give me the same error:

[edit]
I just tried Pandora's Box and it can't find the client either. It mentions something about a corrupt registry key being the possibility.

This is the stack trace from Pandora's Box:

Not sure on UOArchitect, but PandorasBox does that sometimes, especially if its installed on the desktop itself & not in ProgramFiles. What usually works is to right click it & set to Run As Administrator.
 
Well it checks for a registry entry. I did a fresh install and looked in my registry and there was no key there for ultima online. At least not where it was looking for it.
 
There is no registry key, never has been as far as I know. At least I've never found one & I've been using pandys for years.
 
No. Before I uninstalled the old client, there was a several registry keys. At least for UO Architect, you have to use a registry key for it to auto-detect your client. For Pandy (and I believe uoa) its this one from the stack trace above:

System.UnauthorizedAccessException: Access to the registry key 'HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Origin Worlds Online\Ultima Online\1.0' is deniedSystem.UnauthorizedAccessException: Access to the registry key 'HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Origin Worlds Online\Ultima Online\1.0' is denied
[doublepost=1506078654][/doublepost]Just out of curiosity, can you check if you have a registry key at that address?
 
Yes, I do, always have with the clients installed. The only time I've had that error is with pandys installed on the desktop itself & not in program files or a 2nd drive (as mine is now). When installed on the desktop, you usually need to run as administrator for it to work.
 
Any brilliant ideas why UOArchitect is throwing this error? It stopped with the no client found error and now its giving me this for ALL the maps:

I think it is the client. I don't think UOArchitect supports ToL. I'm afraid my shard will be corrupted if I use UO High Seas in addition.
 
For Pandoras -the 2nd post here add this folder into "your game folder" also when creating a new profile, be sure to point it to your game client
https://www.servuo.com/threads/pandoras-box-source.4522/

For UOA how are you going to view maps with this as I haven't seen a map for UOA- for viewing in UOFiddler I have. Also under the options tab when UOA is open -check to be sure the Auto-Dectect has a check for the game client. UOA is very old with no updates- so with using any new items with builds there will be a problem with the preview
 
Milva:
I had UOA working with the High Seas client installed. I'm not sure, but does that give you any clue to what the problem might be? And, if I can't use UOA to build maps, this is a noob question, but what can I for ToL?
 
Saihisahi: That's what I was doing but a weird error came up where all my spawners were multiplying out of control and my guess was it was from using two clients, High Seas for UOArchitect and ToL to actually play.
 
Ah, i used to have some weird errors too on startup, i fixed it by reinstalling the old UO architech version
 
Thanks. I'll give it a try.
[doublepost=1506095389][/doublepost]Ok. I tried UOA 2.6 and it doesn't compile. Did you use 2.6 (1.-0) or 2.6 (2.0) and what client are you using?
 
UOA would be for creating buildings/houses not for map making :/ I use UOA 2.7.3 with no problems-game client I use is patched up
 
Thanks. I'll give it a try.
[doublepost=1506095389][/doublepost]Ok. I tried UOA 2.6 and it doesn't compile. Did you use 2.6 (1.-0) or 2.6 (2.0) and what client are you using?

2.6 (2.0) and client 6.0.0.x no issues so far.

Used to throw runtime or netframework ones, i dont remember but fixed it reinstalled netframework also running UOar as admin
