Title: Is there a way to revert to previous patch?
Post by: floofpunkitten on August 07, 2014, 10:26:57 AM

Not that I know of, you should always have a back up in case of that. I learned that the hard a while back. :(

Always back up client.exe after any patch

I had this same issue (just returned to UO and forgot about not patching), and there is a fix, at least on Windows 7. If you right click on your "Ultima Online Classic" folder (or whatever folder holds your client) and hit properties, there's a previous versions tab. Copy the entire folder of a version that's before the patch. Swap the two folders out and you should be good! I renamed the up to date one and hung onto it, just in case something went wrong. Hope that helps!

It's also a good idea to delete any shortcuts that UO created, as they point to autopatch, instead making them point to client.exe.

I know there used to be a way to get UOA to bypass patching, but I see it's already pointing to client.exe, and runs the patcher anyway. Anyone know of a way around that?

I got 99 problems but a forced patch (or EUO limitations) aint one!

It's always a good time to remind everyone to change their desktop links for UO from the patcher to "client.exe".  If you do this, you'll never have to worry about patching when you don't want to.  Sure, water under the bridge now, but next time you'll be in control.

Except ya have to give up UOA (which I did a long time ago)

True.  BTW, does Razor still work on the latest patches?

I almost never use razor anymore (last time I did it worked) I use uo steam which is Assit UO with a name change.
