I hear KR is a patched now(maybe I am wrong), so its got the best of me and I have to install uo early!!!

For those of you who dont know, I am what you call a seasonal uo player, mostly winter months, I just make my self pay for a game I am not using through the sumemr because of all the other outdoors stuff I do.

Anyway, my question is, I just reinstalled uo because of a reformat. When I open my account and log in will it be KR or old school 2d? Because it dont seem like the patches were any longer then norm.

If you installed 2D. That is what you will be running. If and when you want to use KR you will have to download that client. The patchs for KR have been pretty large. 2D patchs are normal so far

Vepl

were do i download that client?

Check this THREAD. I think it is the newest/bestest and all that other good stuff site

Vepl

So its a whjole other download that dont even go into the uo files or what because I cant get it to work, it tells me that windows cant find it and wants me to use another program to open it lol

I've never used bit torrent downloading. So I need to let someone who has help you out with that. It is a totally different download

Vepl

What is your last patch Crypt Keeper ?

As for d/l KR I didnt use the latest site so cant comment on it .

I tried with Fileplanet,and while a LOT of people got it ok,I didnt as I didnt have an account.
If you do have one though,you can download it from here


If you DONT have a Fileplanet account and wish to d/l from Fileplanet here is a dummies guide [ not that your a dummy,it was more for people like me ] some one kindly posted on Stratics.

First go to file planet and register



it might show the wrapper page but click on the link at the top right 'Continue to FilePlanet'
or if u wait long enough the page automatically changes to Fileplanets main page.

Click on the Register link (Top Left)
Its free so dont sign up to anything (just read carefully and register)
U might have to wait for an email where u have to click on a link to activate ur free account I cant remember. But if you do it will arrive almost immediately in your mailbox

Once registered log in (important log in first or they will try and dupe u to sign up for a paid service u dont need) and go to this page

go to this page

Click on 'Download Now'

You should get the Servers Page (or try this link )

Below at the bottom of the page is 'Free Public Servers' (scroll down if u have to)
It even tells you the wait time on each server.

Pick a server and click on 'Download Now'

Windows firewall might block an active x from running. Just click and allow like u usually do. This will allow you to run the fileplanet downloader

You may get an Internet Explorer Script Error. Just close that window and ignore it.

You want Kingdom Reborn Client at the top of the download manager. Press Play

Now you will have to wait approx. 18min in a queue then the download will begin.

Once downloaded, go to the UOKR_Beta_Client file u just got from fileplanet. Right click and go to properties. This file should be 2.21GB or 2,380,728,370 bytes. If not its a problem with ur internet service. Unfortunately if you did not get the whole file you'll have to continue downloading.

Some people try to extract the rar file and get this error with winrar:
"The archive is either in unknown format or damaged"

and go back into the queue and download again. Dont do this.

Right click the file and select Extract... (dont use winrar or winzip). Use the Windows Extraction Wizard that came with windows XP to unzip the rar file first. A window will open saying Extraction Wizard. If you installed another program and set that as the default extraction application uninstall that application, reboot then try to Extract.

After you have extracted it using windows Extraction Wizard. You need a program called Winrar download and install it.

Dont open winrar.

Ok now goto the unzipped folder from earlier and you will see inside it the Setup.exe file.

Click on that and Winrar will unrar in the background during the installation

Enjoy Testing!

For people still struggling to download the client or having trouble extracting it. There is a place where you can download the client in parts. You dont have to unzip or even know how to use winrar. All you do is download the parts, install winrar then double click the setup.exe file to install the client.

Good Luck, and if you need any more help, post here and I am sure some one will be able to point you in a right direction

If you use torrent at all I HIGHLY recommend using the torrent download, it maxed my connection fast and stayed that way, total download time was about an hour and a half. If you don't use it currently and have some basic computer know-how I highly recommend utorrent to download with.

I would paste a link to the torrent but I'm having some trouble with a bunch of sites right now, guessing a main router is down somewhere cause I can't reach a ton of sites. Pretty sure the link is posted on uo.com.

I got it downloaded but I cant extract the damn thing lol, i keep getting the corrupt error message, the file is in winrar, how do i get it out.

Sorry I know nothing of this crap, I dunno why they couldnt patch it like everything else

...did you download from Bitorrent or Fileplanet?
