Hello everyone,

I was a registered member from back in 2009.  I quit playing UO in December of '15.  After a few years off, I have decided to return. 

My favorite part of UO was creating scripts to allow my three accounts to interact with each other.  Debugging and watching the accounts path find around my favorite North American shard was an addicting hobby. 

A little about me:
I started playing UO after I separated from the Navy in '98.  I maintained three accounts from day one.  I continued to play while I was in college and graduated with an undergrad duel degree in mechanical and electrical engineering.  I continued playing UO while raising my now 17 year old, 16 year old, and quit while my wife was pregnant with our almost 4 year old daughter.  I quit UO and let my Luna house and Felluca castle fall when we decided that real life needed more time than I had to offer.

Aside from UO, I play Battlefield and Ghost Recon, I used to race R/C cars all summer but that hobby also died down.  I still enjoy building PC's and goofing around with benchmark test and tweaking GPU bios settings, however I'm no k|ngp|n.

I am ready to do this UO thing again with the hopes that I can tweak my old scripts (without Cheffe this time I guess) and get it all running again.  I hope to see you guys in game and look forward to working with you here on the boards.

I used to run this script about 6 months ago and it worked great, never had an issue.  I have about 90K in residue built up, so I figured Ide turn in some of it today.

But when I run the script and it gets to the part of dragging the 500 residue into my pack it says "that container cant hold anymore weight".  Though I can pause the script and move 500 manually and restart and it runs one full cycle with no issue until it tries to pull the residue back into the back.

Anyone experiencing the same thing?

Ahh crap i should have been setting the cursor location, not the map location

So I am working on a egg collecting script to do medusa with.. I am having trouble actually targetting the snake hole, I use the flute on the snake, it says the animal walks where instructed - has the sparklies around it, but it is not actually looking in the hole?  I have notices the the hole location sometimes does not fall on the same "Z" axis.

Any advice on this one?

Last night something rather cool happened around my house.  I walked in the pc room and noticed that my 8 and 9 year old were writing scripts on the desktop pc.  I always have a client or two up and running, I guess the kids had been reading the scripts and decided they were going to make the charaters doing something.  Without getting all mushy on here I will summarize it by saying it was real cute.

So, that was the background leading to my question.  What offline emulators are still around?  Years ago I used UOX before it became UOX3.  Is any of the old UOX stuff still around?  What is everyone using now?  I want to keep this real simple so that the kids will keep having fun and keep themselves intrested it playing with it.

have been working on the same issue for the past two days.

I have ran into a problem when looting gold...  Background, i'm trying to open a corpse and loot the gold out of it.  I use:

sub openIt
    wait 1
    event macro 17
    wait 10
    set %lootCont #contid
    OI:
    finditem %loot C_ , %lootCont ;gold
    wait 2
    if #findkind <> -1
    {
     wait 3
     GOSUB moveItem #FINDID #FINDBAGID #BACKPACKID

The problem I am running into is that I am not correctly filling the varriable %lootCont with the correct #contid.  The reason for this is that I am using EV's to kill monsters while the looter is looting.  When the EV does damage, the little damage numbers change my gump id and contid information.  

How do I only loot the container that is popping open and ignore all other gumps when the YFM pops?

i need to get in on the pm'ing!
