Hey folks,
first of all let me introduce myself: I am 20 years old and currently living in germany. I hope, what I'll be writing does not sound like the usual 'omg i wanna set up my own runuo server pls halp' you probably read sometimes here on the forums. I have been playing UO for the past 8 years, so I'm a post-golden-era-player.
I used to run my own little server under uox3 a few years ago, but i thought, i might give it a try with runUO to build a little and walk around in the world i made. Unfortunately, many important files for building up a homeshard have gone amiss over the years, so i thought, i might collect all the things i used to upload them together with a bunch of tutorials for those who try to set up a server in the future.
So here is what i want to do in particular:
So this is what i managed so far: I was able to run either centrED or runUO, but not both using one installation. The clients I've tried so far: Age of Shadows, Mondain's Legacy, Stygian Abyss (7.0.3.0), Second Age. I was only able to edit the map with centrED under AOS, when I tried to use any of the other clients, my cedserver.exe just closed after entering Admin-Name and PW. When i tried to log into my AOS client after starting RunUO, i was stuck at the Character Creation screen.
What client do you recommend? Is what I am planning even possible? Or is it just some stupid mistake i am making? I would appreciate every kind of help you could offer. As I said, it has been a while since i was messing around with my last home server, but I hope to get into the matter again soon. If not, I am ready for a long trial-and-error-process - getting that thing to work will be my long-term project.
So please, any contribution is welcome.

PS: I hope you don't mind if I make a few mistakes in writing, my english has become a bit rusty.

- letting the server run under runUO on my own computer, maybe together with others some day.
- creating a custom map by using centrED
- walk around on that map afterward
