Patch Notes from 2005-01-04


January 4th, 2005 at approximately 1:30PM PST (9:30PM GMT) we published the 4.0.7a Client patch. The 4.0.7a Client contains the following changes:

Changes include:

3D Client:

  • Long macro name no longer causes a client crash
  • Editing book title no longer causes a client crash
  • Deleting multiple skill groups no longer causes a client crash

Both Clients:

  • In conjunction with the Publish 29 server, floating damage number values will no longer "roll-over" at 256, and will be visible for all nearby creatures.
  • InvokeVirtue macro no longer causes a client crash
  • Localization updates

If patched correctly, your current version will display 4.0.7a 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\Ultima Online\Patch). This directory should be empty. Any files in this directory should be deleted. If you are unable to connect to the patch server at all, and are using an original (Non-T2A) version of Ultima Online, you may need to update your verinfo file. For details on updating this file, please see the information posted at http://support.uo.com/tech_6.html.

Run a virus scan on your computer. Undetected viruses may cause conflicts with patching Ultima Online. For information on up-to-date virus detection software, please visit http://www.mcafee.com/myapps/vso/default.asp.
