Well, you can do that simply by changing this line in CurrentExpansion.cs
from this:

private static readonly Expansion Expansion = Expansion.ML;

to

private static readonly Expansion Expansion = Expansion.None;

And then you will have to still update your client in order to not have strange map issues such as falling through the ground, invisible walls, etc.

Updated to 6.0.5.0 and problem solved. Thank you.

you need the zlib32.dll in your runuo root folder.

I would share it with you as an attachment, but it's not a valid file for the forums.

[Firebrand]

can you tell me where i can get it and what file i should put it in?

It comes with RunUO 2.0 RC2 along with the zlib64.dll. If you are using an SVN or compiling from the source you still need these files. You place them in the same directory as the RunUO.exe is in.

[Johabius]

Also, I believe Mark posted a link to it somewhere here on the forums.

You'll want the first version he talks about. It's only named zlib.dll, but it is the same as zlib32

zlib update

[Firebrand]

Read the FAQ in the first post. Issue #1:
1.- When I spawn the world all the spawners are set but not spawning. Am I missing something?

Dooh!

Sorry dudes! Here goes a patch:

[RunUO 2.0 RC1] Nerun's Distro

[Draegen]

welcome back

[cubber]

I am new to runUO and also UO itself. I have the server installed and am able to log into it. I also followed your instructions on how to install the distro. I downloaded your 5.0.7.1.zip file and copied the Data and Scripts folders to my runUO root directory. Here is the command I used on gentoo.

cp -a Data Scripts /home/xxx/gameservers/RunUO/devel/

When I go to spawn the world using your instructions I get "map not found errors" for each place I try to spawn. I have read through this thread and looked over all of the stuff that you had mentioned to other users having this issue. All seems to be in place, and the .map files that the spawner is complaining about are in my data/monsters folder.

Any ideas how I can fix this. I am running the latest SVN as of yesterday with 6.0.6.0 clients.

Thanks!

It's likely because you are on a linux distro and folders and files with Different cases mean different things. Couldn't tell you specifically, but it works fine on a windows machine.

[cubber]

I will look more closely at the errors to see if the letters are cased different in the errors than on my server.

[cubber]

The problem was because the folders in Data\Monsters\ have capitol letters for the first letter of each folder name. So for instance when I was trying to spawn Trammel it was looking for Data\Monsters\trammel not Data\Monsters\Trammel. In order to fix this I changed all of the folders in Monsters so that they had lowercase first letters instead of uppercase.

Thanks for pointing that out, the errors went by so fast I really didn't have a chance to get to see it. Then I found the journal button and it was all in there for me to get a better look. Once I changed the folder names and tried to spawn the world again creatures started to spring up everywhere!

Please keep this lil' issue in mind for future updates to make this distro more Linux server friendly

Thanks!

Okay Just an observation... the Linux/Unix users of RunUO are I'd say in a very small minority here. So Maybe if Nerun has the opportunity he can add special instructions for Linux users. Or add a seperate download package. Otherwise people who had your issue could just go through the thread and see if anyone else has had the issue and how it was fixed.

Like I said before I've had experience with Linux ages ago but went back to a windows pc only because the games I like to play are primarily windows. I'm glad I could help from my ancient Linux knowledge.

[cubber]

Thats cool, I was just suggesting maybe changing the folder names in his release or what not so these kind of questions can be avoided in the future. Changing the names of the affected folders would not change anything on a windows install, and would just make it more Linux friendly.

[Moroth]

Can someone check the newest zip file, it seems to be corrupt?

[LordDark462]

Ok. So i spawned the 3 ML dungins that the distro come with but. I have no idea ware they ware any one mind telling me. ( and yes i looked on stratics but that don't tell me crap )

Yeh, I can't unzip it either. All patches and the actual release are corrupt

[Greystar]

What are you using to Open them? I wouldn't suggest using the zip utility that comes with Windows XP or Vista because it often makes it seem like archives that where not compressed with said utility seem to be corrupt. 7z is free and you can also use Winrar.

[Nemosity]

Can't unzip, tried WinRar, 7z and even Rarzilla and it isn't uncompressing. Anyone recommend a different unzip program or can point me to another link to download this awesome spawner? Thanks a ton

File from the first post works just fine. I was able to download it, and unpack it using winrar.

[Nemosity]

When did you download it? It looks like a new version was just reposted a few days ago so it may just be that the updated version is a corrupt file?

If anyone has a working zip they could repost or direct me too I would greatly appreciate it. And I could finally get my son to quit OCD'in over it. He's 9 and is pumped that his awesome dad , moi , is going to make him a gm. Albeit a home server just for him, I just have to have monsters and spawning them individually would cost me about another three days of him constantly riding his awesome dad! lol thanks!

[Johabius]

right before I made my post. Download, rightclick on zip file, chose extract here(winrar), and there it all was.
