Yeah i know, but poplicola has already stated his intention to make the client the most customizable it can do it...
I don't see anything really bad in a RunUO "addon" (like Malganis ML is) that can make this client work better than the average OSI client...
Anyway, i'm not saying to do these things NOW, and make it start like that... But, beeing able to use it both ways, well, that is revolution

As with runuo, much of this client will be scriptable. I imagine that the GUI will be one subsystem which is entirely user-editable. There may be a GUI set which is closer to the legacy client ui, or someone could create one and offer it as a download.
You will be able to override the default containerframe class.
Servers may also be able to mandate that the client download and use novel interface pieces, perhaps to expose a new server feature or to create a 100% legacy experience.

I have XNA 3.0 installed ( http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...89-5414-49b8-ab32-e3fff05a4c50&displaylang=en ). I need XNA 3.0 SDK ?Jeff;803710 said:
Regarding the layer draw in r31: Are we sure that helms are drawn last? I ask because of things like hooded robes. If helms are drawn after the robes, wouldn't they appear outside of the hood?
Just checking on that. I always thought that the layer used by robes was drawn last.
I'll get back to work on ClientConfig.cs tonight, and move the movementButton and actionButton definitions out to it as mentioned in the commentary.

right, it doesn't.
there's a file called stitchin.def that seems to hold all the variable about wearables (what it covers, what it is covered by, what to remove, etc.... it's an homoungous quantity of informations °_°), but i haven't been able to make it work for customs...
seems it doesn't matter if it gets changed (i tried to make a "skin" appear under everything else except the body itself, did not work)... probably, the .exe reads that file only one time, as it is compiled by the updater (can't find any other reason)...
being able to work on that file, one could play with layers and cloths to his heart desires...

Smjert, Halicon, and I have added a bunch of new features in the past few days. I've just uploaded fixes that allow you to buy items from Vendors. I've attached a picture with my latest update: you can now buy items from merchants!
Other updates:
You can now move items around in your inventory.
Fixed huffman decompression so that you can stay logged in indefinitely (or until you receive a packet that the client doesn't handle).
Basic support for handling player death and ressurection. (thanks sgorman07 for submitting this issue!)
Mobiles now have names - you can view them by mousing over them (it show up in the debug message, maybe support for showing names overhead soon?)
You can now mount/dismount horses and other mounts (mounted animations too slow as of yet).
Merchant frames! You can now buy items from a merchant via the merchant frame.
You can follow the daily code updates at the google code website: ultimaxna - Google Code

It'll be interesting to see how this project develops. I think an open source .NET-driven UO client is long overdue. XNA is a great platform and I can vouch that Jeff's XNA skills have vastly improved over the past 6 months.

As of r60, posted today, the client supports local chat (although not overhead text yet - that will wait for another day's toil.
Attached is a comparison shot, with the current revision of UltimaXNA on the left, and the legacy client on the right. UltimaXNA's terrain shading is excellent and compares very favorably with the legacy client's graphics; Jeff designed the terrain shader.
