[RunUO 2.0 RC1] Nerun's Distro

[Nemosity]

For many reasons, I am sure, although I truely don't know nor would I understand any of them.... Winrar was the only program that would correctly extract the distro zip file. Just an fyi for those of you out there that may have or will experience the same thing. Download the trial version of Winrar and you will have no problems.

So, to make a long story short: Use WinRar to decompress

I used 7z without any issues and it's what I use to unzip everything.

I used PowerArchiver.

I uninstalled PowerArchiver today. I installed FilZip. Appear to be good, and freeware.

Still having no luck:

Tried 7zip, WinRar, FilZip and Windows 'Compressed (Zipped) Folders', none with any luck. Windows still said 'corrupt' and WinRar, FilZip and 7zip gave me a file the same name and size as the zip, (See the screenshots below). Can somebody host this on an external mirror? It might solve my problem, as it could be the attachments download that is corrupting it

WIndows "Compressed (Zipped) Folders"


Winrar, 7zip and FilZip (both did the same thing).

Hello, wanted to begin by saying that this is a great script you got there Distro. I´m new to all this RunUO but learning slowly. I just wanted to ask about 2 things. First is that when I spawned my world with your script there seems to be awefully lot of creatures. You can´t run between towns without meetings tons of monsters. Can I somehow reduce the amount of creatures spawning? And also, does your spawner come with treasure maps as loot from animals and chests? And finally does it spawn treasure in all the chests in dungeons?

extract the file within the zip with any program.

rename the single file with .zip at the end.

extract the new file, and the contents are inside of there.

I have installed Nerun's Distro and used it to spawn my server. For some reason they are spawning off the map and also in the floor. I thought someone here might know why this is happening. I am using RunUO RC2 and the client and server version is 5.0.9.1. Does anyone know why this is happening?

Also when I log out and logback in I am stuck in the ground. Maybe this has something to do with the server and not the Distro?

That is a client issue. The client maps changed after 5.0.9.1, in order to fix your map issues, you will need to update your client. Also, if you are running your server on a different machine than what you are playing on, you will need to update the server machine's client as well.

If somebody here uses Python, try this software...

Map name is case sensitive.
Place the XML file inside same folder as XML-Exporter.py.

I had translated several Mondain's Legacy XML files to PremiumSpawner maps format, but there are no mobiles for ML so several badspawns. I will fix and release the next version (5.0.8) soon.

[nerun]

Changes 5.0.8:
- fixed Prism Of Light dungeon (Felucca / Trammel);
- added Blighted Grove dungeon (Felucca / Trammel);
- added Painted Caves dungeon (Felucca / Trammel);
- added Palace of Paroxysmus dungeon (Felucca / Trammel);
- added Sanctuary dungeon (Felucca / Trammel);
- added Citadel dungeon (Malas);
- added Labyrinth dungeon (Malas);
- added Twisted Weald dungeon (Ilshenar);
- added Lokai's ML Mobiles (several changes);

Ok I am not sure if this is a problem script side or something with my computer.
But I downloaded a fresh copy of rc2 installed and added this system. Now when animals are fighting or following they will attack/move 3 times then freeze for 2 - 3 seconds then attack/move 3 more times and repeat. I was thinking maybe it was rc2 so I went and installed a fresh rc1 copy I had same thing. But my old server which is rc1 does not have this glitch. Anyone have any ideas ?

Note: When I unspawn the world the problem goes away.

I THINK that has to do with smartspawning try shutting it off and see what happens. I've heard that mentioned with RC2 before.

Ok thanks for the suggestion. But as soon as I click Disable it says "Property has been set [4869]" Then the world freezes. I'm honestly at a loss for whats causing this. Anyways as said thanks for the suggestion.

OK, here goes the explanation, from FAQ, item 5 (read the 1st post in here):

1.- This is not caused by RunUO, be RC1 or RC2, but by PremiumSpawner's Smart PRS.

2.- The lag every ~3 seconds is caused by Smart (but not so) Player Range Sensitive system.

3.- To disable the Smart PRS use [spawner, go to 3rd page of the gump, and click disable under Smart PRS options.

4.- Yes, it will freezes the world for a time, but not for ever! The system will disable the Smart PRS for all the spawners (+4,800!!!). And, here goes what freezes: all the spawners that was in Smart Mode, will become Stupid Mode and will spawn, pop uping +87,000 items and +34,000 mobiles at the same time!!!! Just wait a little...

5.- This system, Smart PRS, works great on dual core.

Thank you very much I will give this a try. Sorry to have asked a question that had been answered. But I thought I had checked all the previous post and facts before asking. Guess I missed one this time. Oh and nerun I never assumed it was any option with in the spawner system causing this I actually believed my pc was finally refusing to allow me to run a server lol..

Use winrar or any other file archive utility besides the one that comes with windows or WinZip.

Yup, I'm sorry I should have read further. My Dumb.
