Re: Problem with "The Hand"

Yes, I lose my mouse cursor occasionally and have to restart the client to get it back. I've sent it as a bug in a few different scenarios. Hopefully it gets fixed soon!

When it does happen, it's like your cursor is invisible. If you watch closely, when your invisible mouse hovers over the menu items, you can still see the highlight on each button you move over and can still click the buttons. That's how I get out of the game when it does happen.

I hope to see it fixed soon!

Re: Problem with "The Hand"

Yep, add me to the list of people this is happening to. At least now it takes a good hour or more before it disappears.

Doesn't seem to be related to anything in particular either, happens regardless of what I'm doing at the time but typically will happen at a very bad moment.

Re: Problem with "The Hand"

Hello everyone,i was an old UO player from the beta days and played UO afterwards for 3 years,KR actually made me take a second look at the game again,and so far i love it with the exception of crafting and my biggest problem......the dreaded dissapearing hand(pointer).
Its annoying to have to log out and in at the worst possible times to reset the pointer, happens every 20-30 mins;x
Please resolve this;p

How do you tell when you run out of invisible ink?

Re: Problem with "The Hand"

Welcome to UO Forums and back to UO scyudl

Hopefully that and several other bugs will be fixed with the next patch. Be sure to report all the bugs you find. EA may not be calling it beta now. I tend to treat it like beta still

Re: Problem with "The Hand"

last couple of months i noticed the largest return of former uo players. The reason? "Lets see KR"

Yes there are bugs, they will be patched tho. If i remember correctly in the first beta days even the creation of new char was bugged.Got fixed. As for the 2d client? Aye tis cute. NIce and cute. Now time to move on

Re: Problem with "The Hand"

Well 2d wont go for a couple of years. And 2d reminds me of the game fall out and siege of avalon. Very old games. Good games but old...

UO needed a refresher. Its why ppl left and went for wow and DAoC and all the rest of the games that started pouring on. Now though it starts get crowded again. And i didnt know KR was sold. Its free.

Oh and one more thing: If EA wont make money from the games they produce, then they will abandon it. Trust me, pure - simple and like a fanatical UO gamer and rp community member the last thing i want is to see this game down the drain.

I actually think UOKR looks incredibly out of date. I believe they should have gone full steam ahead and created a true 3D fully animated WoW/LOTRO/DAoC type game, and left 2D in place as well. As it is the new UO appears older than 2D - to my eyes anyway

Re: Problem with "The Hand"

Yep id agree there. There was a trial once: Ultima Online 2. Full 3d and all. But that was out of the window for some reason. But ill take the next best thing in ultima tbh. Not that 2d is bad. Its very cool, but its way too outdated.Kr on the other hand has better graphics. If it was like full 3d, Id go nuts and buy it, but it seems thats a bit away still

Re: Problem with "The Hand"

There is absolutely NO way that a full 3D client ala WOW or EQ could ever be integrated into UO. The game was not designed to be played like that, it was designed to be played from an isometric viewpoint like Dungeon Siege or Diablo and that is one of the things that I personally like about it. If they tried to integrate 1st or 3rd person view I can guarantee they would completely destroy the game.
I would have liked to see a better 3d engine for the game with Dungeon Siege 2 or Titan Quest like detail but remember they were trying to keep requirements low so as not to alienate a large portion of they're player base. Unfortunately their game engine is HIGHLY unoptimized right now, where DS2 runs super smooth for me UO:KR has a heart attack when there's a lot on-screen.
