Hello there everyone,
After a long absence I decided to take a look at UO dev again and maybe get my toes wet. My history with UO is mostly with RP shards. I've tried most of them out there but the only places I spent a significant amount of time are Fallen Ashes (way old) and TLEA (The Life Ever After). Additionally I ran a shard called Crossroads, it was a spinoff / sequel to TLEA. However it was extremely short lived so mostly unknown.
I am familiar with most aspect with UO dev. However my strongest skill is world building, its something I really enjoy. Scripting is not a problem for me as its in the same field as my day job but I sort of rather not do too much of it as I do enough in a day. Creating and running complex story lines is also something I enjoy a lot. When GM'ing my goal is to get the game experience close to a table top rpg. Working with players to achieve a more immersive experience is what I aspire to do but more often than not its easier said than done.
I've explored ForkUO a good while ago but did not spend a lot of time looking into it. I really liked how it was put together to support more complex modding. So now I will be taking a look at servUO and maybe get a little more familiar with it.
I've technically retired from all UO activities years ago but discussion with old friends on the topic has awakened my curiosity so I decided to sign up and see whats going.
So a warm hello to any here that know me and a hello, nice to meet you to any I do not.
Take care
