General Discussion / Shadow iron eles still perfect tanks?
« on: May 29, 2014, 07:05:24 AM »
Does it work to dig up shadow iron eles and provoke them onto things, or do the top end creatures have attacks that will damage them now?

A shadow ele should make a good tank for Semidar (and anything else you want to stay at range for).

Scripting Chat / AutoIT
« on: May 17, 2014, 11:54:57 PM »
Not sure if this is known, but AutoIT (http://www.autoitscript.com/site/autoit/) can work with UO.

I tried it out and it didn't work at first.  UO is apparently set to ignore keypresses and mouseclicks initiated by other programs.

The trick was to run UO in a sandbox (http://www.sandboxie.com/) so it couldn't tell the keypresses were coming from a program instead of the keyboard.

To get anybody interested started, here's a sample loop to work hiding and spellweaving via Essence of Wind.  CTRL-F1 = Hide, 3 = EoW, ESC = Quit script.

It'll loop completely 4 times.
Each loop consists of 1 hide, a 0.2 second pause, then 4 Essence of Winds with a 3 second pause between them.

If you run out of mana hit escape and wait for it to regenerate.  The number of outer loops can be tweaked to your mana pool and regen, the number of inner loops should stay the same to maintain the proper timing between hide attempts.

This is for attended use.  For those interested in unattended, I direct you to If statements and PixelGetColor.

Code: [Select]
WinActivate("[#] Ultima Online")
HotKeySet("{ESC}","Quit")
for $i = 1 to 4
   send("^{F1}")
   sleep(200)
   for $j = 1 to 4
  send("3")
  sleep (200)
  send("{Backspace}")
  sleep(3000)
   Next
Next

func Quit()
   Exit
EndFunc

Receipes / ...This forum is called "Receipes"...
« on: May 09, 2014, 12:46:40 PM »
What's a receipe?

...Anyway, to be relevant to the topic.

Stuffed Peppers.
Take the hottest peppers you can stand, hollow them out, fill with ground beef.  Sprinkle Cheese.  Wrap in bacon.  Cook until delicious.

Spicy chip dip.
Get a container of sour cream.  Get onion soup mix.  Cut up 2-3 of the hottest peppers you can stand. Red savinas and trinidad scorpions are ideal if you hate your face.  Mix it all together and dip chips in it.

Spicy pepper.
Take a hot pepper.  Put it in your mouth.  Chew and swallow.  Lay on the floor and cry like a sissy girl.  Breathe in and realize you just maced yourself.  Cry more.

...I like peppers.

Hi.

So...  Uh, an intro, huh?

Lessee.  I've been playing UO since Pub16.

I don't script, exploit, or cheat for personal gain.
I do enjoy using legitimate game mechanics in such a combination that people believe it must be a cheat or exploit.

I also enjoy understanding the cheats and exploits for what they reveal of the behind the scenes interactions.

I'm not opposed to people using cheats or exploits, until such a time as it has an immediate, unavoidable impact on my enjoyment.
Give your mount a name that'll crash the client and use it to screw with guildmates in your house?  Awesome.
Give your mount a name that'll crash the client and use it to win at PvP?  Well, now you're just being stupid....

And so forth.

Hi.

General Discussion / Any blue NPCs worth killing?
« on: May 08, 2014, 01:00:57 PM »
There's an event going on right now on Siege (possibly others, but who knows/cares) where Rabid creatures/humanoids are spawning in certain towns.  These are red, powerful creatures with many thousands of HP, capable of inflicting lethal poison.  They are immune to guards, but passive to NPCs.  When killed, regardless of what creature they appeared to be, they leave wolf/dread spider corpses with appropriate (poor) loot.

If you don't mind taking the guardwhack yourself, you can discord them to get their barding difficulty below 160 then provoke them onto townspeople.

Are there any townspeople worth killing these days?  Any rares/semirares to be had, even if they're rather useless?

Also, I guess you could use this to kill people in towns, but anybody AFK near one of these creatures would eventually be randomly targeted anyway.  Lure one all the way to another town, where people expect to be safe? I'm sure there are shenanigans to be had.

I can't think of anything worth killing that isn't marked invulnerable.

They're also immune to taming and Dryad's Allure.
