I wish people would read the how to first damn it.

You are trying to logon with an encrypted client either connect with UOGateway and set it to remove encryption or use UORice to create a new client.exe with the encyption removed.

I totally agree! Newbies are always so excited about host emulators and they will just come here, without reading any of the FAQS/Tutorials that have been done for newbies :x

I hope they would learn to read a installation tutorial or something, before they ask for help

Perhaps a script like this in the distro could help solve these questions.

[code:1]using System;
using System.IO;
using System.Diagnostics;
using Server;

namespace Server.Misc
{
/// <summary>
/// Summary description for GettingStarted.
/// Launches a browser to Ryan's 'Getting started' post if no 'accounts.xml' exists. (Assuming new installation)
/// </summary>
public class GettingStarted
{
public static void Initialize()
{
if (!File.Exists(Path.Combine(Core.BaseDirectory , "Saves/Accounts/accounts.xml")))
{
Process p=new Process();
p.StartInfo.FileName ="http://www.runuo.com/discussion/viewtopic.php?t=1530";
p.StartInfo.UseShellExecute =true;
p.Start();
}
}
}
}[/code:1]

Or they could just make a readme :-)

Perhaps I will work on it.

So many projects, so little time...

This wouldn't really help the 'real' noobs.. they can't get the shard working/logged in then they wouldn't even get that popup..

The script executes when they execute RunUO.exe. Before they even try logging in they will have a browser opened to a getting started page.

i agree that people need to read the info before asking questions
that may have been already answered but no reason to get upset
over it Newbies are Newbies and it will always be that way just point
point the way out grin and bare it
