Contents.Gameplay Ultima Online continued the tradition of previous games in many ways, but due to advancing technology and the simple fact that it was Origin's first online game, many new game mechanics appeared. Partially designed as a social and economic experiment, the game had to account for widespread player interaction as well as deal with the tradition of players feeling as if they were the center of attention, as had been the case in single-player games. Worlds Ultima Online began with a single world, with specific expansion packs adding additional territory and new worlds. The second world was the 'Lost Lands', with additional land, dungeons, creatures, and terrain. The third was Trammel. This led the developers to distinguish the original world by making the environment more grim, and naming it 'Felucca'. The two kinds of servers were 'normal' servers with both Trammel (consensual PVP) and Felucca (non-consensual PVP) ruleset and 'siege' servers with non-consensual PVP and no item insurance.

Some of the graphics used are high-resolution versions of graphics used in.Ultima Online: Third Dawn clientThe 3D client was originally released as a part of the Ultima Online: Third Dawn expansion, but received poor reviews due to performance issues (especially early on) and sub-par graphics. An update to the 3D client was made on January 30, 2006 when characters and creatures from the game were scaled down to smaller sizes. As of early May/Late April 2007, the Third Dawn client was no longer supported by Electronic Arts, and focus shifted to the Kingdom Reborn client and its successor the Enhanced Client.

Screenshot from Ultima Online: Kingdom Reborn.Ultima Online: Kingdom Reborn was announced in August 2006 and was released August 27, 2007. The new client modernized the game's look, making it easy to add new content without backsliding through outdated and outmoded art, while maintaining the niche market as an MMORPG that can run on computers.

Electronic Arts referred to the Ultima Online: Kingdom Reborn client as '2.5d,' meaning that it was written in 3d and then moved into 2d to make it easier for lower-end computers to run. The client is available as a free download.Electronic Arts originally stated that the Ultima Online: Kingdom Reborn client would replace the long-standing Ultima Online client. Support for this client ended on September 9, 2009, to streamline the patch process prior to the release of the expansion.

Enhanced ClientA modified version of the Kingdom Reborn client, renamed as the 'Enhanced Client', was introduced as part of the Stygian Abyss expansion. It was released as an in July 2009. Changes included enhanced macro abilities, a more configurable interface, changes to the mapping system, and graphical improvements.

So I've been playing around with including some new house designs for placement in a custom UO shard.I have been a pseudo-fan of the custom housing system Ultima later introduced. By that I mean that I love its potential for creativity and some of the amazing structures people develop. Unfortunately, I feel that the blatant eyesores outweigh the good and chip away at the atmosphere of Ultima Online.We tried to make a big selection of new homes for players to select from that hopefully they would like but wouldn't look out of place in Ultima Online.Now, back at the grinding stone, trying to think of some new ideas. Some of these are just 'messing around' and not as likely to make an appearance (eg.

That wagon house).Someone had a suggestion of these being deeds as rare items; people could try to obtain and collect them and you would still need the corresponding gold cost in your bank to place. I really like that idea.If you'd like to see some of the other houses we've made you can see some here:I'll post some more as I make them, and I'm curious to see any you guys have come up with. I promise that if we like them a lot I'll contact you for permission!EDIT: PS. Something we changed that always bugged me about UO: why not east-facing homes!?.
