DO NOT SELECT THE DIRECTORY OF AN EXISTING UO INSTALL - IT WILL NOT WORK Once installation is complete, launch UOMythLauncher from the shortcut on your desktop. The Launcher will update itself, if required, on launch and restart. ================================================================================ New Player: If you have never played UOMyth before you will need to Install the Ultima Online Client and configure your preferred assistant software (Razor or UOSteam). Scroll down to New Player Install for step by step setup instructions. Existing player: If you already have the Ultima Online Client installed and have logged into UOMyth previously, you do not need to download and install Ultima Online again, but you will need to configure your program paths in the Settings section of the Launcher.

Once you are done, request on discord for a GM to move you past the blocked doors. ================================================================================ Existing Player Update: 1) After you have downloaded and installed the UOMythLauncher, launch it and go to the Settings tab. 2) Select the Assistant Program you are already using 3) You can toggle Enable Automatic Updates on or off here, as preferred. 4) Set the Ultima Online Directory to your existing UOMyth Ultima Online install folder (where client.exe is located - eg C:\Program Files\Uttima Online, C:\UOMythClient etc) 5) Select the location(s) of your existing Razor Install Directory or UOSteam Install Directory. 6) IMPORTANT: Quit and reload the Launcher now 7) If new files are available for UO, “Updates Available” will be present in the top right of the launcher. These updates can be downloaded manually in the Update Manager tab or will install automatically (if you chose this in Settings). 6) Click PLAY and your Assistant software will load. 5) Log in to the game as normal. Troubleshooting If you are having issues with running the launcher, it may be down to one or a combination of the following: 1) Administrative privileges - Try running the launcher installer or if already installed, the launcher itself as Administrator (right click > Run as Administrator). You can also set the shortcut or EXE to always run as Administrator (right click > Properties). 2) Your Anti-Virus (AV) software may be initiating a safe scan when launching the program, this runs in a protected mode and doesn't actually run the program fully. Allow the AV to finish its job and run again. 3) Your Anti-Virus Software may be fully blocking the launcher installer or exe file, you can add these to your AV's exceptions and allow it to run (after verifying for yourself it is safe by scanning it). If you are having issues with installing updates, it may be down to one or a combination of the following: 1) You have the UO client running, close and retry the patch 2) You have a 3rd party tool running which is using the UO files (UOFiddler, UOAutomap etc) 3) The update downloads a zip file which may become corrupted (e.g. Gumpart.zip) or the extracted updated file (e.g. Gumpart.mul) may have been corrupted, simply delete the Zip/Mul file and reload the launcher and it will re-download the latest version.
