Hello ScriptUO Community,
Like most people making an introduction here, I've been a longtime on-and-off UO player. It all began on Christmas morning of 1997, and my first character started at Empath Abbey. My first combat experience occurred immediately after beginning the game -- I was killed by a chicken. I had a few characters on a lot of shards, but eventually settled on Chesapeake with my friends. Before trammel, UO life was fantastic. We had prime housing spots at the very front of the brit x-roads, and there was always a lot of interesting foot traffic. With the abomination that was UO:Renaissance, trammel killed all traffic outside of brit bank in Felucca, and UO became very boring to me from that point on. I quit OSI in 2001, and stayed away from UO for a few years. After that, I've played on IPY on a very casual level, and I've recently been playing on UOGamers:Hybrid a little more seriously.
My reasons for wanting to try out ScriptUO scripts w/ EasyUO are simple. First, I'd like to try any interesting scripts that catch my eye. Secondly, I've been programming in C(++), shell scripting, and various other languages for a while. I've never really tried EasyUO scripting before, so I'd like a good base of example scripts to play around with, so I can learn quickly.
On a more personal note: I'm also the type of person that likes to listen to relaxing music while playing UO. It's a good balance to the craziness usually happening on-screen. I've been a Radiohead fan for years, and I like to mix it up with other downtempo tunes (Bonobo, etc.). If anyone with similar musical tastes has any recommendations, let me know!
I hope this is a satisfactory introduction, and if I ever become useful at EasyUO scripting, I'll attempt to provide some scripting contributions back to the website.
Happy UOing,
JDLEE
