Patch Notes from 2006-05-17


Wednesday, May 17th, 2006 at 6:30PM PDT (May 18th 1:30AM GMT), we will deploy client patch 5.0.2b

Details for the patch are as follows:

  • TargetSelf will no longer show the targeting reticle if the targeting system has been disabled
  • Previously targeted mobiles will no longer be re-targeted if they move off and back on the screen unless the player has not cleared his target
  • Fixed an issue that was causing the target status gump to have a delay in updating when target was poisoned
  • Fixed a bug that caused the target status gump to remain open after players killed certain creatures
  • Put the % sign back on the end of the swing speed item property
  • Fixed the Inform me of stat increases option, which was not staying on when it was checked
  • Fixed the buff/debuff tool tip for the Protection spell
  • Fixed targeting error messages that were not working correctly in Japanese
  • Bump version letter to "b"
  • Localization changes
  • Fixed a targeting crash bug

If patched correctly, your current version will display 5.0.2b for both clients.

If you have any difficulty receiving this patch, please check the following:

  • Check the "Patch" directory within your Ultima Online directory (the default location is C:\Program Files\EA Games\Ultima Online\Patch). This directory should be empty. Any files in this directory should be deleted.
